Many thanks

Excellent last report Plexa. Even if this OSL had sucked, you alone would have made it fun.
Something is bugging me in your post's last image though : July sitting on the ground with a content smile on his face, holding his trophy like a sandwich.
Has he just eaten the Golden Mouse???
You are lucky I don't have a banhammer

Nice article <3

I couldn't help but guffaw at the last photo, though. Looked like July collapsed on the ground, "Someone give me a sandwich, this trophy isn't nourishing enough."

A great read :D

Can't wait for the next OSL. Better watch out, a newly refined Best will own next season. But still hoping for a Boxer in next OSL

There were so many small details in game 3.

For example: Before he dominated the mid-game ground army, July forced Best to unload 2 reavers away from the center by scourging the shuttle. This resulted in only 1shuttle (carrying 2 reavers) in that big mid-game battle where guardians completely countered them. Can you imagine the damage 4 reavers would've done?

That's just one example. July pulled off so SO many sexy moves in that game.

That skinny guy on the SK Telecom T1 coaching staff(right of Bisu in pics) always looks like a whino everytime I see him.

July is a very complete Zerg player. He is never relaying on one single unit/strategy, his one of the fastest players and probably the most aggressive one. The only problem with July in the past was his macro which he seemed to have fixed. I don't see why July won't be a hard contender for the next OSL, or whatever tournament he plays in...

I voted for BackHo as the one hit wonder, now don't get me wrong, I think he's a great technical player but a champion is going to need something else so unless he steps up his game he's gonna disappear.

Good writeup Plexa

They were such amazing matches.

I loved how you could constantly hear the slightly dampened roar of the audience.... The sheer number of spectators and their constant sound cues made the games that much more intense.

The Swarm is always victorious. Come on, "manly Protoss", where's your GOLDEN FUCKING MOUSE?

Thanks Plexa, you don't create art, you ARE art.

This OSL couldn't have been more perfect. I honestly feel like I could be content with Starcraft forever because of this. I'm a huge fan of July in the first place, but he did something awesome for the innovators of Starcraft progaming this OSL. With SC2 on the horizon, I could settle with this being an epic climax to the greatest decade of gaming in history. I don't want to undermine any future grand finals OSL, MSL, or whatever else, but I do feel like this OSL couldn't have been any better. July was fighting for my 7th grade self and I felt like a 7th grader watching. Perfect.

Awesome write-up Plexa, you capture the essence every time.
Make a lot of friends. Wear good clothes. Drink good beer. Love a nice girl.
