I'm so happy Iris won though, I actually wanted Strok to win originaly, but after yesterday's pathetic show, I was thinking Stork in one finals is more than enough, I didn't want FBH or Stork vs Bisu, after that Bo5.. Bisu should have got the title by default, it was that bad. GJ Iris for showing Stork PvT isn't kids playtime. | ||

Iris obviously studied Stork's play style closely and chose the perfect counters. Stork was unable to adapt during the games themselves, just like Savior vs. Bisu. Only difference is that Stork was even MORE unfortunate than Savior, because he had less time to prepare for this map. Playing on Proleague AND MSL AND OSL is too much for anyone to take in this day and age. | ||

Iris ~_~ Timing Master. UGH. I wish Stork's probe in game 3 and game 2 ~_~ ughhhhh Maybe he doesn't play with map hack genius. Christ, idiots are gonna be hating on Stork but there were some unlucky factors and the fact Iris came with a vendetta. Stork never got a probe into Iris' base... It's really quite unfortunate. i know he could not scout iris but the first thing a newb (me) learns is that if you don't know what your oponent is doing you play it safe. i hate no one, i'm just enjoying the pwnage  | ||

Seriously though, a lot of people here get the wrong impression of a player based on certain performances and stats (ie. that oshibori guy who keeps running his mouth like he knows shit). | ||

The location simply isn't the best 2 fact location as mid game becomes terribly difficult in that base lay out. Then again, he 2 fact vultured Reach from fuckin Xenosky ~__~_~_~~_~_~_~ who knows what Iris is thinking. He is simply thinking "kill" "kill" "kill" in his head. | ||

Also perhaps Stork did not want to be in both OSL and MSL finals because it would be too much for him? Just a thought to consider. | ||

Then Iris just teabagged Stork. UNFORTUNATE. I still can't get over my dissappointment. | ||

Don't ever consider something as stupid as a progamer giving up a match "on purpose". It will save you a lot of ridicule later down the road. -Mynock | ||

This series deos not prove anything at all, and it definitely deos not prove Iris is better then Stork. About GGplay, you guys seriously underestimate his TvZ. He raped Casy, Nada, Hwasin with a ferocity unseen since Savior's domination era. Yeah Flash's TvZ is good, but he is going to have a hell of a time againts GGplay, who's on fire right now. Also perhaps Stork did not want to be in both OSL and MSL finals because it would be too much for him? Just a thought to consider. Actually GGPlay tied with Nada iirc | ||
