I will remember this as one of my favourite OSL seasons of all time.

The starting line-up was great and the players I cheered basically all played well. When it was BeSt, Stork and Fantasy left I knew I would be happy with either outcome (except some boring 3-0 or 0-3 rape), BeSt vs Stork didn't fully live up to my expectations, but the final was just great and I am really happy for Stork. I cheered for him in all his past finals and now he finally did it. BeSt is also there to stay and I am confident he will win a Starleague sooner or later. And once Boxer is back in SKTT1 (which will be by the end of the year I think?) maybe Fantasy can develop even further.

makes me wonder what might've happened if the stork vs kal series was played after today

I'm pretty sure stork was preparing way more for this one

but 1 gold is worth it all for this man!

I hope that Stork can collect himself after this, and continue to train just as hard. His confidence should be at an all-time high, given the way he won this final. To play as he did, to do these push-breaks at those critical times, that takes serious balls.

Oh my fucking lawd, I KNEW I was right to trust Stork with my loyalty this whole time.

I LOVE THAT GOOFY SILVER BASTARD!
Perhaps there is a universal, absolute truth. Perhaps it justifies every question. But that's beyond the reach of these small hands.

A little scary there for Stork, but he did it!

I think Stork would have won against Kal if it was scheduled after the OSL Finals. Winning the OSL has to be a HUGE boost to Stork's confidence.

If Stork was a little luckier and his MSL quarterfinal would be after the OSL final, he would have a great shot at the double crown.

Game 2 and Game 5 was just sick management play. His reaver BO was successful for much of 07-08 but now people are starting to counter it. He will rush to reaver without much units and 1 gate. Kal and fantasy exploit that with the first push. After winning 1 game, Fantasy's nerves calm down and good job for making the series interesting.

I loved the moment where they showed Kingdom, Oov, and January talking to their players backstage about what to do on the final game.

unless you mean his Silver legend hohoho


Not many people have more than 9 medals. And Stork is going to get a lot more. Savior has 8 and probably won't get another one, for example.


Do u mean savior's medals are 5 msl medals, 1 osl and 1 shinhan masters silver and 1 wcg medal?

I have never been so nervous as when i saw Stork losing game 3. I can't believe he managed to pull it back on game 5 though - the old stork would never have been able to do that.

IMO nobody in progaming deserves an OSL gold more.. so glad he finally got it.

Fantastic. I'm so glad Stork won it... I got pretty scared after he dropped two games. I'm really glad Stork finally got his crown. Fantasy is a great player though, and I am really happy for his achievement as well.
