Great job, SKT1. You won the championship.

Fellow Hwaseung fans, Oz will be back next season with more experience and more skill. If this were 4-0 4-0 I wouldn't have anything good to say, but seeing Backho, Killer, and Lomo perform that well under pressure gives me hope that the next season will see Oz dominant again.

GG.

All respect to Oz as well for making us run hard for the money. Even without your Ace player, you were worthy opponents, especially in the second day

In a grand display of how much Boxer has influenced SKT1, Fantasy has re-enacted the Bunker Rush in both his games. Jaedong is destined to play the role of Yellow, always to end up one away from victory.

Boxer smiles as he recalls his victories over Yellow. Heartbreaking, but the stuff of legends of his youth.
Coach Choi smiles as his words come true: SKT1 will lead Esports into a new era, as Starcraft 2 pokes its immature head onto the horizon.
Fantasy smiles as he sees his mentors' happiness, the one who taught him the winning strategy; the other who showed him how to use valkyries.
Canata smiles; Backho's cheese goes unpunished.
Hyuk smiles; he finally showed the world what he's made of.
Bisu is disgruntled; Fantasy stole his glory.
Bunkie smiles, he always does.

Elsewhere, Jaedong apologises to his team for being a letdown. For not pulling an Effort v Khan clutch. For losing to Hyuk. Jaedong apologises to Backho. To Killer. To Lomo. Somewhere, Oz weeps together, and none weeping the harder than Jaedong, knowing that they were just < > this close to winning SKT1.

Somewhere, Konadora is jumping in joy as he reads the results to SKT1 v Oz.

ugg why is everyone complaining about the build? Fantasy did the exact same thing yesterday so JD should have been on the look out for it again.

Who would expect someone to cheese on the most important match of an entire year's worth of Starcraft games?

I am not surprised personally, but most players would not expect to be cheesed on something this important.

It's definitely something only Boxer (or his student, in this case Fantasy) would do.

SKT1 won the match, but didn't win any hearts. Can't believe Fantasy decided to just roll the dice and proxy in the epic final and deprive us of a hotblooded memorable Ace match.

Lomo gave the best performance of the night by far.

are you serious? after jaedong went 0-3 and OZ still managed to get to ace match you are still complaing about one man team?

How quick fanboys forget. Oz got steamrolled 4-0, 4-0 in the previous two sets and consistently relied on Jaedong throughout the PL. One set today means nothing.

You kidding? The one-man-team strategy blew up in the Oz coach's face and team play from T1 (Hyuk, anyone?) won the day. I have absolutely nothing to complain about.

Final score 8-3

If I were the SKT coach I would've told Fantasy to cheese the hell out of this game too. Basically you've got a game to give, then play straight up for the Super Ace. Jaedong, as good as he is, should have expected this, as well as Coach Cho, who should have "coached" better.

Killer build though, it was key to let Jaedong kill the two marines at the choke to let him think that's all he had.

god i feel horrible for jaedong. i don't know what else to say. i have become such a fan of this kid recently. he has such a huge heart and such passion for the game, and is so physically and mentally apt. i don't know what else to say besides i hope this doesn't destroy him.

Jaedong needs to take all the hatred and anger he feels now and direct it towards Fantasy in the OSL.

Anyone who doesn't go and vote for JD in the OSL semis over Fantasy is a fool after seeing this. Having sniper builds doesn't work in a bo5.
