Man, starcraft ceremonies are always so awkward - the winners are always inundated with ten times more stuff than they can hold and they never quite know how to deal with it all gracefully, lol.

This whole series can be summed up by Bisu's reaction. Someone needs to post the GIF!

Well he said he'd play this like it was his last. Maybe it will be.

This thread is an excellent example of why people are unwilling to listen objectively to formulate opinions, and change them as necessary based on new evidence.

People show it off in your face when you're wrong.

Now keep in mind, I didn't really care who won this series, but I'm just saying, things like "HAHA ALL YOU IDIOTS SHUT THE FUCK UP, JULY CAN MACRO" make it so that people can't change opinions without being ridiculed. It would've been the same if Best had won 3:2 in macro games and people said "HAHA I TOLD YOU JULY CAN'T MACRO, IDIOTS" or something like that.

When you're surrounded by comments like that, it's impossible to say "Well that was unexpected, guess things didn't turn out like I thought" without being crucified.

Just my observation :S

It's not being a Best fanboy to state he had the harder path and played better up until the finals of this OSL. There's nothing Fanboy about that at all and truth be told, it is true. Having a harder path and stating that doesn't change that ultimately, July was the one who lifted his game enough to win, he absolutely deserved this win, and I'm happy for the Tushin <3 (every bit as sad I am for Best because he did not lift his game in turn and make a really fantastic finals out of this).

However Disciple, you do come off as a Best fanboy looking for solace.

dude wtf's your problem??

u seem to me like the biggest best's fanboy ever ;}

I dont have a problem with July being a champ ! I'm so happy for him, but I cant agree with the statement that his ZvP is kick as, that he is at the top of the scene atm- first game 5 pool, yes best contributed to the victory with his proxy gates, second game, all-in rush (july had 5 drones mining) last game was nice, he showed awesome skills, but best was broken, he lost the first two games because of 50% july's skills , 50% bad luck

I would say normally you are right... but it was just retarded to say July can't macro just bcuz he played a so nicely early game in the first 2 games.

If Best is able to come back from this major setback, hes going to win at least an OSL or MSL within his career. I'm a Best fanboy so I shall wait for that day <3

Congratz July on a Golden Mouse :D

Best played 1 PvT and a PvZ semi...his path was 10 times as difficult as july's. Just admit it - July's tournament was a joke - ZvZ group and after that ROCK AND BACKHO. And yes, shit happens, july is not the first champ with an easy path, but stop hailing him - golden mouse -OK , he deserves it, cause he's a great player and a nice guy

Agreed.
I mean come on, BeSt got a PvZ semis and finals (his worst mu) vs July who got a ZvP semis and finals (his strongest mu).

I'm not saying July doesn't deserve it or anything, he definitely does. But people calling best "stork" or saying he won't win anything are fucking retarded.

BeSt got a hardest run for sure. I'm not trying to discredit July's wins, but rather showing that with opponents like NaDa, Much, JangBi, lux in front of him BeSt got to the finals.
