Great Job. Agree with almost all of them.
Parting had a good year in the TL awards.

I agree with drama of the year. I hated all of it.
I actually forgot that Destiny better than expected at MLG Raleigh when he got Favre'd

Excellent writeup. Agreed with most choices, though I am getting slightly tired of both Life and Parting (mostly because they keep beating my favorite players, but still).

Will be tuning in for this next year!

Idd, Mvp should have gotten player of the year(Korea). I'd even go as far to say that this is a disgrace. (and I am even a Life fan aswell)

Absolutely amazing read. Loved it!

This part is what jumps out for me: "A brilliant yet deluded man once said, 'Introduce a little anarchy. Upset the established order, and everything becomes chaos.' Gumiho is that agent of chaos."

And sure enough, everything became chaos. 40 supply swings became commonplace. Bases popped up and were dropped like whack-a-moles. Manner mules were dropped prematurely. Base trades abounded. And strange new unit compositions, elsewise ineffective, were put together to fit the circumstances. The game represented the best of what SC2 could be, a wake-up call and a stark contrast to the predictable, monotonous games we had become accustomed to seeing.



So many newspapers would be proud of this level of work. So well written!

Teamliquid (.net) - my website/team of the year!

Life player of the year? Grow up

Zergbabbies would have been too upset that the player of the year still wasn't a zerg after all the patches, let it go.

Leenock had the best results in all of 2012 i think. although he never won a gsl he won a lot of other tournaments too. Life's only big title win was a GSL.....

and LOL at teamliquid being the international team of the year.

happy new years


this post is stupid for so many reasons it's not even funny...

I understand why there isn't a winner for the drama category but I really think Destiny himself should maybe be the winner since he sparked both the Starcraft is dying and cellphone picture controversies.

i found the worst drama section a bit tedious.

i agree that it is a negative aspect, at least to some degree. in particular any debacle that contaminates the forum with qq or flaming is really annoying, be it balance whining or who's game is best. but the rest of it i felt was pharisaical (i hope i used this word right, i googled it), and i would rather it was put in a separate blog. or maybe it was humor and my army is way out of position.

Awesome read, I read everything. Almost all (maybe even all) of these I could agree with. I can't believe 2012 is gone already, though by reading this, it seemed like 2012 was a long year. Well, to 2013 and beyond!

"DongRaeGu had the highest number of top finishes."

but life gets first because of his "aura" and " quality of his play"

which I kind of call BS on becasue I dont feel an "aura' when I think of LIfe and as for Quality of Play, DRG won everything when Zerg might have been the weakest race, LIfe won when Zerg was hands down the strongest race.

Life's year in Code S: N/A, N/A, N/A, 1st, Ro16
DRG's year in Code S: 1st, Ro32, Ro4, Ro16, Ro16

and Leenock doesnt come close to Life or DRG in terms of achievements

DRG is player of the year.

Also you talked about DRG's "bad" 2nd half, he was still in Code S the whole year. His 2nd half was better than LIfe's first half and DRG's first half was better than Life's second.
