I still cringe when he plays ZvP. Last Starleague vs Stork was horrid showing by Lux. Awful play vs a not so great PvZ player.

Luxury, you must win! The hilarity that would ensue from a Backho vs Luxury final would be so wonderful, and you deserve a title!

Its hard out there for a Zerg player thesed days. Lux, Jaedong and July are the only hope for Zerg now. Go Lux, advance to the finals and let this OSL be won by a Zerg for if we don't win here, we might now win in a long time.

Best, this is not your OSL. You do not belong! Luxury has been around for a long time always rising and falling. Now, this is his goldent moment, he earned a spot in the finals. Go home Best, you are a young player and you will have your chance later. This is not your time.

As the writer of that luxury article so "long" ago. I'm proud to see my overall favorite perform this well. After seeing his incredible flair in the games versus flash even I was surprised by his skill. In my opinion lux had thought out every event in that second game including the tank sniping and supply destruction, as flash was predictable enough to let that happen. In the first game his timings were so prefect that unless flash deviated from his normal pattern, there was no chance for him to win, as he realized when he GGed.

One could be more disappointed with Flash than impressed by luxury, but to come up with these strategies against the strongest standard player right now, a player must have an incredible knowledge of the game. As some of you might have noticed (savior vs forGG, mingu vs flash), some players have tried to do similar strategies to luxury's lately, but they haven't been performed with luxury's precision and therefore looked nowhere near as impressive.

However, his games versus stork were horrendous, and he denied us an epic ZvT final instead of the worst finals ever. What I saw in luxury's play back then was that he was uncertain and had for some reason forgot all the cool strategies he normally uses.

Right after the humiliation in bacchus, his proleague performance against P started to pick up and he learnt to counter FE with something other than hydra break (with which he failed miserably against stork). I'm confident that his whole ZvP gives him a lot more confidence and with the maps in his favor, I don't see best winning against this monstrous zerg.

Luxury has since his loss against stork played 6-1 versus P and his sole loss was versus Kal on blue storm (kal's best map, which has also started to swing in a P>Z favor).

As one of the most hardcore luxury fans, I've followed him intensely since I wrote that article, and all evidence points that he's more than ready to make this his first OSL win.

note to image posters: check 10 times if its not Yarnc.

Strange thing for me - to see Luxury doing so well, yet still I don't consider him "solid". He popped up around the same time Tester started showing up in individual leagues. The fact that two oldies known from replay sites and considered strong amateurs went pro and on tv gave that warm feeling. He was in the shadow of Yarnc at the time, who had a reputation of a strong rookie. Now its the other twin whos in the light, while yarnc faded away. Coming back to present situation - does anyone else have this feeling that this semifinal result will be like OSC 2007 TheRock vs Jaedong? Don't remember predictions and expectations at the time, but this sense of randomness of what happened there is similar to my feelings about upcoming Luxury's match.

Come on Luxury, you must put those pesky Best fans to rest! Best doesn't have the Luxury to be anything but the Best.
