nice writeup, but you made a mistake: Jaedong never played Violet in GOM, effort beat violet, I guess you're mistaking violet for much or whatever Protoss JD was playing back then

Nice write-up.

Very informative, having only followed progaming since the end of 2006 I hadn't seen some of the youtube vids, tx. :D

While there is undeniably a lot of skill involved in ZvZ, for me personally, it unfortunately is subpar in the entertainment department.

Hard to get hyped when you can't stop saying what a cakewalk Yarnc had to the finals (I'm not arguing with that statement itself; read on). That's just downplaying Yarnc's run. It wouldn't make any casual fan go, "Wow, I'm excited to watch someone I read on TL shouldn't be in the finals!" You never said shouldn't be, but saying enough what an easy road it was implies such. The pressure of performing well as a member Hite is not compelling. This isn't the SPL or SWL. If Yarnc wins, it means he was the better player; nothing more.

As for your comment about another Hite member (Leta) potentially putting up a better fight than Yarnc, I reply: Leta couldn't even beat type-b. Leta is also 0-6 vs Jaedong. So please, enough about Leta!

-------

Also, I'm a dumb-fuck for reading the first page of comment because some of you spoiled the MSL semi-final B results before the VODs were even available! My fault, but I'm still severely pissed.

EDIT: You damn filthy bastards.

The possibility of golden mouse?

I don't care what anyone says. For any player, OSL prestige > anything else in progaming. Even Proleague.

proleague is still the biggest and favourite league in korea now . you can just ask jaedong , he will tell you . OSL and MSL are still legends . but its now just everthing about proleague . i think its a good question to ask at blizzcon to savior , nada , skyhigh and zero .
