Woongjin fan group crying session inc

There's only like five of us anyway


Could be worse, there's only 2 STX fans.

Me and Mustaju. Lol.

Last count on Nov 2010 revealed at least 203 stx tags


lol 203!

Should update the count, I'm actually kinda curious about the TL tags and % of people wearing what.

Hey, it's better than 2 lol, only people I recall with the tags are you, must, cs, and thepol

Yeah I wish they would update it also. I imagine SKT recieves another boost in numbers haha :D

Badges alone don't mean lack of fans :3

Yeah I know, as I'm a fan of a few other teams too :D


I love STX.


And I love CJ! <3

I've actually been a longer CJ fan than STX, I have more favorite players on CJ than STX, but I like STX as a team better.

If that makes any sense lol.

Also ACE = Autolove.

That proves he doesn't follow SC2. MLG Columbus was the epitome of what E-sport could be.

If MLG can beat this then ..

Hmm what match was this again? :O


Are you serious?

you all seriously underestiamate the money side of all this. It is no wonder that a good game being properly funded, events, prizes etc. sooner or later will conquer such attention. This would never be possible if there was no funding.


This isn't about funding .. This is about Acceptance ..

If all people, old, young, teens, tweens, or what ever their age, their outlooks in life, their lifestyle Accept E-sport, then that can be a reality. If there is still social stigma towards gamers outside korea or china, then this MLG of yours will not be the "Epitome" of E-sport.



Oi oi, did you even read my post?


Perhaps I need to clarify my comment more. MLG was, what I felt, a true international competition of SC. Ignore the fact that Korean took 1,2 and 3. It was nonetheless competitive.

Furthermore, the atmosphere, the drama and the audience that screamed at every little detail and showered the games with so much love was exactly what I hoped to one day see in e-sport. What always draws me back to the mainstream sports was the passion of the audience. The World Cup is truly a great example of passion.

This passion is something I rarely see in e-sport, with rare exceptions here and there. MLG Columbus had plenty of it, albeit on a lesser scale. But it was absolutely what I hoped and wanted.

He's actually on his way to breaking the record :O He's tied with it at 57 wins, and could easily surpass the record tomorrow.

I couldn't imagine a worse final. -____-

"Very interesting". =_____=

If somehow there was even an explanation what Zero could have done but didn't??? But there isn't such an explanation. Zero seemed to do anything right - and still lost. He never even manager to get out of the defensive. WTF.

If anyone could explain me what ZerO could have done better but didn't - probably I would change my mind about this final. -__-

Competition is when you can do something to win and you opponent can. When you can do something and opponent has no option against it (even if it's hard to perform that "something") - it isn't competition.

Very much wishing Flash to drop out again at like Ro32 or Ro16 by a protoss/terran so that we are saved from such shit again.

With no other decent toss on the horizon I really do wish it is true. But Bisu somehow manages to scew the things up, when it matters.

I think I'm gonna read this entire thread (from where the games began) and bask in Flash's glory.

Why is this thread turning into SC2 vs BW? Anywho, congrats Flash. I sincerely hope you don't surpass NaDa

He's going to win the next OSL and MSL too, if these finals were any indication. Zero is supposed to be the second best Zerg but he got absolutely dominated in every way. The only way Flash isn't winning both next season is if JD gets his shit together, which is getting to be rather unlikely.

These are dark times for BW fans but good times for Flash fans, I guess.


Last season was a very dark time for Flash fans, getting knocked out of both leagues by no namers in like Ro 32 or something

Yes, because 3 months of no individual leagues is so hard? Give me a break, it was a minor bump in the road after he won everything. And he won every game in PL in the meantime. Flash fans have nothing to complain about when compared to any other player in the last 2 years.

I was not replying to you .. I was replying to the guy that answered "its all about the money". and still I read your post and I perfectly understand the point you are conveying ..

AAAAAAAAAAaaannnddd enough of that ..

I hope Bisu or Best can do something about this lack of Protoss Indie League Champs these couple of seasons .. QQ
Religion is a dying idea .. || 'E-sport' outside Korea are nerds who wants to feel like rockstars. || I'm not gonna fuck with trolls on General Forum ever again .. FUCK!

With a player as talented as Flash, Nada's most accomplished progamer title will be as good as Flash's, sad to say.....

Also, there's always next season for Bisu.

Flash just kind of took the series by the Bullhorns.

Zero made some pretty nasty mistakes with his mutas, and in the first game not reacting to all those rax in the first game until they were already at his 3rd was a HUGE mistake.

Game two he really did well holding off the inital aggression but Flash was playing contain + expand everywhere, and zero never was able to break the contain.

Game 3 was similar to game one but Flash still managed to contain Zero and take the entire map.

I'm not going to say "zero could have done this!!!" because Zero played pretty well, if you look beyond the "oh fuck I'm in the Finals with Flash" nervousness mistakes. Just...Flash is Flash and he's like, a whole different level of BW at the moment.

Can't believe people are downplaying the no vessel thing :o In set 1 he didn't have time or need to make some, but game 2 or 3 ? When 2 defilers just swarmed indefinitely ? That was just so boss :D I don't remember any TvZ that went past mid game without vessel from the terran, or perhaps I have a bad memory.

I'm still trying to decide whether or not this final was as one-sided as a mobius strip. It's disappointing to see so many one-sided SC finals nowadays...
