Much and Pure are the only ones who actually gave advice and helped Stork (excluding teammates), the rest just agreed to play games vs him. They could have done the same with BeSt, which is highly likely. | ||

Oh yeah, he did, but at one point stork had alot more units on a ramp and somehow best climbed up and kicked storks trash. it was pretty amazing. I guess I should of been more specific. Pretty crazy micro. | ||

But there are people who never liked him or even disliked him who likes him now and does to same with every player that does something good. Thats what I mean  That's human nature. Anyways, I rooted for Bisu against stork in that epic OSL finals, but I'm starting to come around to Stork. I've certainly never liked Best, and I have no clue whom this Fantasy kid is. I don't want another one time Starleague winner that fades into oblivion like Mind, Anytime, and so many others and I think that Stork has worked insanely hard to get here. I think he deserves a gold and if he can't get that he should still deserve our respect as one of the greatest Starcraft players of all time much like NC-Yellow. So that is why I'm rooting for Stork in this final. But if it were to come to it, I would still take Bisu > Stork any day of the week. | ||

- Your Reaver drops were very efficient in the third game. ▲There's a crucial element to remember when using builds like that. Opponents react to Reaver drops by transferring their probes to the natural minerals, so it's important to drop the reaver on the pathway that the Probes will be clumped. It doesn't matter how well the scarabs explode, but rather how clumped the Probes are. It's close to impossible to avoid significant Probe damage. - The strategy you used in game 4 seemed very good. ▲ I didn't decide on a specific build while initially preparing for Plasma. Different players from different teams have extremely varying play styles and strategies. Through more practice,however, I found out that proxy Gates caused serious trouble - I took full advantage of that. If I managed to find his base right away, I was planning on doing the proxy Gates in base. I would have just done manner pylons if I hadn't. I was really hoping to scout him first. Best delayed my first pylon with nice Probe micro, but his reaction to the proxy Gates was slow because he was completely caught off guard. You don't get tips like that very often guys. Someone (Fakesteve? Nony?) said that Best was "patient" in his reaction. I thought it was slow. I thought that BeSt could have also thrown down a pylon or two in such a way that Stork couldn't have thrown down a gateway.

The only PvP players he didn't grab were like, Pusan and Bisu. Oh, and Anytime and Reach, but they're military now. He had a lot of commentary about how all the players from the same teams played the same style. Interesting. Nice interview OneOther! | ||

I never understood the anti-Stork bandwagons at TL. But man, it is definitely his turn for a title.  | ||
