Good Job, MrHoon.


Yesterday a small OGN show called "스타뒷담화" had a special of Stork's OSL performance. It consisted of the OSL curse, Yellow 2.0, what went in Stork's mind and iloveoov. It said ALOT of things about games 1-5 and in general. I tried to get the VOD but failed, so I decided to translate the important parts.

if you want VOD for the complete translations, I can help you. just let me know.

What made you so much stronger in this league than the previous leagues?
The losses from Jaedong and Flash helped so much, however the biggest inspiration came from last OSL with July. When I saw July play, I was so jealous. How can someone make his opponents tremble in fear like that? How can someone who isn't at his prime like he used to be so good at mindgames? I had to learn because Flash and Jaedong taught me mindgames is what wins leagues, not how perfect your plays are.


Glad he found that out. Stork's mechanics + creativeness makes him unbeatable.


You didn't go carriers... Did you do that on purpose?
I actually wanted to use carriers so badly. I really wanted to end game 3 and 5 with carriers but Fantasy denied me both games. At game 3, I didn't expect vulture/dropships, and on game 5, Fantasy kept destroying my probes with his vultures so I had to resort to arbiters.


LOL and Stork and his fetish for carriers.


Oh? Who was that?
(P)Much :D

Come to think of it... Game 1 build was what much used
Yes, Much kept teaching me all these builds that worked so well. And I told him NOT to practice with Fantasy

Haha makes sense.
Hehe thank you Much for your builds!


Weird relationship between CJ and Samsung. Much and Stork like each other. FBH and Iris like each other.

FBH and Savior... okay, not so much.


I think it was just the fact so many protoss players wanted a protoss to win the OSL. And Much, well, everyone loves much.


Much also helped Stork with strategies against Best. The guy has a great mind. It's just that his mechanics isn't good enough to carry out these strategies against top level players. Maybe he just wants to use Stork to carry out his whacky builds.


Dude, GranpaToss is like 200 years old and his arthritis it's starting to take it's toll. He must pass on his knowledge before his time is over(Much is going to be such an amazing protoss coach for CJ...).

Btw, by recent commentaries by some players, The Maestro says that T1 Terrans suck at mechanic play(at least compared to CJ ones), all the help of the ever famous T1 Protoss lineup(Bisu & BeSt, with Rainbow as a sidedish) was no match against the strategic mind of GrandpaToss, the whole team is landcrashing in PL....

I like T1, but KTF fans and any fan who dislikes T1 must be enjoying this

Since I have no idea how to work Movie editing programs, I rather have the vod, translate what stork said and just send it to someone to edit it.

It would be great though, spread it to the community

I love the Boxer/Oov convo. Stork seems like a cool guy I guess, he can have some more of my respect after this.

I am waiting for the Yoda / Luke impressions of Much and Stork. No seriously, this makes me love Much even more, as a modest and strong performer who is not shy about helping others. But of course it was Stork himself to put it into practice.

Honestly, at game 2, I thought to myself "Damn I can't win a 3:0, thats so lame." I might sound cocky at that statement, but when I saw the walls of Anytime holding up his trophy against Boxer, I really wanted something epic like the Boxer/Anytime finals. Also the Boxer/Anytime finals was what really motivated me to become a better Progamer.

wow, real reason why stork lost game 3

seems like my translating is pretty terrible but let me rephrase this

Stork did not lose games 3 and 4 on purpose. He lost them because he simply got outplayed

also sounds like he was thinking about things that he shouldn't have been. stork's gotta learn to keep his focus during the finals. lol
Stork's biggest fan
