Does that count as an upset? everyone here assumed that Best was going to win right?

The liquibetting favored Best, but not by as much as I was expecting...it wasn't even 60/40.

Nice. I wish you guys would do this more.

I really enjoy the game analysis, although the other things can be kind of weird. Like the whole argument of Stork can't winning the finals because no one else has lost so many before winning. This makes no sense, of course, because very few players are simply good enough to make the finals. Small sample sizes does not make an argument.

Five stars!

P.S.: FakeSteve et al @ LiquiCast: Seems Stork knows more than a-moving his goons :-)

That report was really good.
But I really don't get that:

"For stork to become the undisputed best player on the planet he needs to win this OSL, and possibly he could also become rated as the best Protoss in history."

And yes Stork will fail again.
He's got used to this feeling and he knows how to handle it; it won't hurt that much this time.
Go Fantasy, avenge Sea and Bisu :>

Eh, I thought the series was so-so.
Sooo much bad probe luck.
Game 2 was a nice prep but Best lost his probe so stupidly at the min nat. I'm pretty sure that is the main reason he went 4 gate and not the bs SKT1 uses one build on medusa nonsense.
Game 3, Stork actually went range first and was going a mirror build to Best's when his probe got in and so he cancelled range to robo.
Game 4, -_-;; Yeah. Losing those reavers's shuttles was lame.

FUCK, I hate PvP

best actually really lacked in his shuttle micro that day... also for Game 3 the commentators said that stork was probably faking the range because it would be stupid to get it considering the distance the goons would have to walk (they said that taking the nat would be a lot better and ezier to defend, because of the distance)

but i do agree on the whole bad luck thing... best lost incredible amount of probes.. i mean im sure stork placed his reaver and, maybe, atcked a specific probe so that he would have the best chance of killing a lot at once but the luck was ridiculously on his side...even when he only got one shot off he'd take out like 7 or 10

friggin ridiculous...

Stork's reaver placement makes it pretty much impossible for his scarabs to miss. This isn't your typical harass, where the reaver placed behind the mineral lines and the scarab tend to be duds. This was speed shuttle suicide run. I think Best could've reacted faster, but he probably didn't expect the reaver drop location.
