You guys should stop whining Shine is a solid player and If anything i would be pissed as fuck if Fantasy was in the Ro8 with the way he is playing . In the OSL we don't want "solid" players. We want the people capable of jaw-dropping, amazing plays. Stork is. Shine isn't. Fantasy is (despite being terrible a lot of the time), Bisu is, and EffOrt is. That's why Shine is getting bashed. He may be doing the right thing from his/his fans' perspective, and no one is saying his victories weren't earned. BUT no one wants a type-b/yarnc semi again. And each win of Shine, we're one step closer to that kind of gayness. Which makes Shine's play gay. And you wrong for saying otherwise. | ||

It just requires more management than the 3hat spire standard of today but still leads to same thing in the end. Hm, I wish I could remember the other game where JD used it. Fuck. | ||

I mean even I who is horrible at SC knows that there is always a counter. The real question is why he kept producing the unit combo he did instead of something more effective. The map is good for it. Mobility is key, hence why stork tried sair/reaver in the first place. If Zerg has air control its not possible to secure the outside expansions. | ||

And each win of Shine, we're one step closer to that kind of gayness. Which makes Shine's play gay. And you wrong for saying otherwise. So a player that's not a big name can't produce "jaw-dropping, amazing plays"? Yarnc/Type-B are not apt comparisons at all. When they went into OSL, they were known quantities; they'd been around long enough for people to know what they were capable of, so complaining about them getting that far and making for boring sets was a fair complaint. Shine is new though. People don't know what he can do yet, and I'd say that it's overly hasty to think that just because he's new, he's incapable of producing the amazing games you're looking for. Every S-class player was in this phase before. Bisu was another protoss for Savior to stomp before he became the Revolutionist. Flash was known for cheese before he was known as the Little Monster. Jaedong was the Legend Killer before he was the Tyrant. | ||

That was the best game of 2009 and the pimpest play of 2009, but who wants to watch a final match in MSL ro64 between 2 non top 20 kespa players Game quality is not measured by the names that are playing but how well they are playing in the game, thats all that matters. Everyone had to start up somewhere too, you just dont pop into the scene and become a big name with a million fanboys | ||

As a huge Stork fan, I'm pretty unsatisfied with these results though  , a Flash versus Movie finals would be pretty sick to be honest. | ||

I guess you could say Fantasy was sort of like that, except oov didn't start pitching Fantasy until after he made his name known in Incruit. Jaedong before he won his OSL was pretty weak in ZvP. He'd made some individual leagues (there's some Jaedong v Savior set from 2006 on youtube), but generally was known for being Oz's option for vT and vZ in proleague. | ||
