EPTYes, if Stork finally takes the OSL he would be named the best protoss in the history. But No, he doesnt deserve such a title. His talent skills vision of the game is simply top notch and undeniable but he is not mend to be a champion, just like July last season he is profiting to the max form the lacking of opponents in his worst match up. Will it be deserved if he wins it, having in mind he played his best MU for 3/4 of the tournament - sure. But stork had the shot the prove that he is the best toss that will be, and he failed- some seasons ago against Jaedong. The possible OSL title wont prove anything , not that he is the greatest in the history of the scene. This will only be the star league,which a player with such a talent should have won so long ago. Stork has another silver medal to get. I'm happy with his role. For me Stork is like the toss NaDa. Even after 3-4 years he will be still kicking ass, but something fundamental is missing for him to actually become like NaDa and its not the ability to play incredible starcraft... I just cant find the right word...

I don't know whom i want to win. I can't really respect stork until he takes 1st in a korean-only league. He's had enough chances to. If he wins, I may come around to the "Stork is a pretty sweet toss" camp. If not, then I will laugh at his crushed psyche. | ||

And, I wish fantasy loses. Many of you might not know but this is stork's greatest opponent. Some will argue Flash and Jaedong were the ones who will put stork on a real test, however iloveoov's apprentice will be Stork's true test. iloveoov called samsung a shit team, made fun of stork and called fbh 'a player who just gets lucky' This final isn't about who will be the Royal Roader or who will be the Legend of The Fall. No, this is a fight between the Cheater and the Dinosaur; the pride battle between T1 and Khan. Alot of T1 fans say Stork will lose forever because he made fun of iloveoov. You know what I say? iloveoov started the trashtalking and he will eat his fucking words at the final. | ||

Upon reading you, you've changed the translation of that shirt multiple times. Stork had some bad history with skt1 because he was fucking bm when he was with old, old SKT1 and therefore got made fun of, from what I've read on this forum, and that seems like a pretty reasonable response. He very rarely congratulates to the winner whenever he lost a final, he didn't give credit to jae, bisu, or flash when they took him down. He just says he wish he played better and acts like a sour cry baby on stage. its only when he fucking wins does he say, "oh he played very well and I got lucky/trained hard." Iloveoov doesn't direct his badmouthing at samsung for no reason, the two ARE equally hateful of each other and equally bm to another. They got their fair shares of karma. Fantasy FTW, I love that guy's tvp. But stork is looking real strong here, maybe his closest bet to a gold. | ||
