As always, thanks for taking the time to make this.

I'm still kind of sad about Killer getting knocked out. Even when he was just starting, I've always liked him even with that penchant for choking when he's ahead, and he's come a long way from there. Looking forward to seeing how he does next season!

This article just reinforces why and how much I love Starcraft. I love the game, I love the players, I love everything about it. I can't wait for the next OSL and Proleague. I've really liked Jangbi ever since I first knew about him, and him finally winning did bring at least a few tears to my eyes.

Every time I watch that last game and see the Horn guy crying, tears populate my eyes.

I've been a fan since 2008, this is this the best OSL finals I've ever gotten to see.

Um, I'm not sure how to put this elegantly so I'm going to go for blunt.

When Jangbi just stormed back (except for when he didn't storm at all) from a huge slump to take the OSL final in grand style...

...how the hell is soo's run the "Story of the Tournament" with not even a runner-up? If it wasn't so cliche by now I'd scream "blatant SKT fanboy-ness".

Ahem.

Apart from that*, a great write-up.

* (And Kwark focusing way too much about the RPS effect in the battle reports... even if it's true, I prefer drama. But I can't really complain.)

Oh man, I got chills watching all the old players in the OSL history; Grrrr..., Garimto, and seeing all those old names. Good nostalgia.

Best player of the tournament: Flash
This isn't even debatable. Flash is the best player in any selection of Brood War players of which he is one. That's just that. Given the piss poor display of decision making we saw in these finals (FE unopposed, win, he FEs unopposed, lose, FE unopposed, win, he puts a load of tanks in a choke, lose, he allins to siege nat then doesn't siege it, win) neither player even merits comparison with Flash.


Basically, regardless of how he plays, Flash is always the best. Even trying to take an early third base like a moron on Gladiator (hello clumped tanks and no vultures) and not playing to the map on Pathfinder. Great that we cleared that up.

I understand that your job in these write-ups is to provide emotionless analysis and I guess all in all you did a fine job with the finals. Some disagreements:
Game2: Scouting 14CC last on a 4player map is just tough luck. He tried DTs and then a recall. It didn't work out and Fantasy's defense was flawlessly in this specific game. We could have seen more from Jangbi in this game, but he would very likely have lost regardless of what he tried.
Game4: I guess we can all agree that Jangbi should have gotten the tie easily. But I didn't view the situation in such a way that he could have easily pulled a victory here. When you have no income, scarabs are surprisingly expensive, and Dragons don't kill tanks that well.
Game5: I basically disagree with everything you say about that game, so I'll just make that short. Fantasy's macro slipped up and that probably cost him the game. All the other flaws you see weren't there, plus not giving any credit to how Jangbi handled the situation, which was incredible.

All in all, I really dislike the way you wrote about this OSL. Maybe for a change next seaon, you could focus less on trying to find mistakes everywhere and try to see the good plays that happened.


I really enjoyed Waxangel's (easy as a Jangbi fan) and riptide's part.

Bisu is still in the MSL. (If or when it starts.) As everyone else big are in MSL aside from Stork. (If I remember correctly Bisu knocked Stork out???) Flash is there, Fantasy, Jangbi too I believe, and JD?

MSL is going to be great. When/if it starts.

Edit: Nope Stork is still there. So ya this MSL is looking very nice at the moment.
