Do you know if they've updated Jangbi on the OSL wall yet? When I left in December, they still hadn't added him to it. And he's not standing in front of it here either :<

They are waiting for him to win this one so they can put double one.

I haven't been able to watch games 2-4 yet but I hope they are good. I really hated the way these brackets worked out in the Ro8 :\. This whole OSL I wanted to watch mini play more PvZ, but instead he gets matched up with the ONE other protoss in the league instead of one of the 4 zergs :\.

the side of the bracket is weird too. I would say that jangbi definitely has the best shot at beating flash/fantasy in the finals out of him/mini/hyvaa/zero, but he will have a very hard time against hyvaa/zero in the semis (probably unfavored to make it out). however mini is so good at pvz lately that he would be favored to beat zero/hyvaa, but is most likely of the bunch to die a horrible 0-3 vs flash/fantasy.

oh well, here's hoping to a better than normal ZvZ Bo5 and then a great PvZ semifinal with jangbi.

still, it really would of been so much better if flash/fantasy could meet in the finals and not semifinals.

I think they've added him, the camera focused on his picture on the wall at one point during the match.

Fun series overall! Game 1 was definitely the game of the night with the clutch forge block and probe drill. Game 2 could have been better, but mini really fucked up going uphill so recklessly. Awesome comeback for Game 3! I don't really remember Game 4 too well, but it's kind of sad this is the last PvP of the OSL forever.

What's the purpose of stargirls?

Mini had no luck in game #1. His robo was out so fast but first he lost the shuttle defending then he lost shuttle + reavers. Tech switch into DTs only to get jangblocked. That game proved that even though he's hilariously behind - Jangbi can take the win. Like he did vs. Fantasy game 5. Like Jaedong & Flash always did in their prime. Jangbi deserved to advance and nerves got to Mini and made his micro slip so he lost the shuttle. A promising future is ahead of him and I hope he becomes as good in SC2. Really wish we had more time with BW. Why can't it always be 2008? What an amazing game.

I think that Mini was too impatient. It felt like watching a Civil War between Aiur and Shakuras where JangBi is an experienced HT while Mini is an hot shot DT rookie trying to be all fancy and watnot. But JangBi with superior meticulousity trumped Mini at every single turn. I also feel bad for him because he did try his absolute best but just those tiny details that JB managed to capitalize on. JB was calm throughout the entire series.

Oh man if only there was MSL/OSL/Full time BW PL running side by side now. These up and coming players will get much more play time and garner enough confidence in themselves for the big stage.

Holy crap at Jangbi using probes to glitch out the DTs to buy time in game 1

That series made me feel really bad for Mini. His scarabs would not hit. He went 3-gate into robo vs a 4-gate. The robotics facility was 1 or 2 hits from dying before the observer popped out. Even when he manner pyloned like crazy, he didn't gain a lead. And he lost most of the field battles decisively. Most of these things are a credit to Jangbi. Hero probes, better reaver placement when harassing, better shuttle control (though a flub here or there), better engagements, and better under pressure. But still, I couldn't tell if Mini was just outmatched, or if the universe dictated that this was not his time.

The series results have been determined from game 1. Mini was overly eager. He had 2 Reavers in shuttle and a bigger number of Dragoon count after taking the lead against JB in the encounter. He also have an extra base faster than JB's. But instead he decided to Overextend his army to face against JB's reinforcement in which he could have just pulled back and play passive. Then his guys got decimated by superior positioning.

Game 2 was him being too cocky about himself with 3 or 4 Manner Pylons in which JangBi just shrugged off.

Both of these games showed his mentality that he indeed has the potential to go further in his ability to play but his mindset is totally wrong and need a fix on those kinks. He needs to come back with sturdier fortitude and serenity.

Mini made a LOT of mistakes like engaging uphill, chasing with 2 reavers but dragoons outnumbered, shuttle placement etc. He had slight BO advantages but always threw them away. Nerves and lack of experience, Jangbi -is- the veteran in this matchup anyway, having gathered so much experience from the time of the 6 dragons.

Really disappointed because Mini could have done so much better, but Jangbi played so well he deserves to advance.
