You haven't looked very hard..
What is the Legend of the Fall?
The Legend of the Fall is a beleive that a Protoss player will win the OSL in the Fall. This Legend started in SKY 2001 where Garimto defeated Boxer in the fall, stopping Boxer from winning three back to back OSLs. This curse was perpetuated the following fall in SKY 2002 where Reach defeated Boxer once again in the Fall.

Good good write up, agree with everything! XD

Cept maybe fantasy being the one-hit wonder.

I say 'thezerg', i just don't see him being an S-class player, though i can be totally wrong >.>

And when Anytime defeated Boxer again, in the Fall (lol).

I actually thought it referred to the fact that Boxer will always lose to a Protoss in the fall OSL and thus fail to reach the Golden Mouse.

Bump. I was just rereading this article and in hindsight it's just hilarious how we voted Fantasy for the 'Sync' One Hit Wonder Award.

edit: looks like this article doesn't show up on the sidebar anymore...LOL oh well

The 'Sync' One Hit Wonder Award -- fantasy

I have no idea what you TeamLiquidians are thinking, but you voted fantasy as the player who is going to drop out in the group stage next OSL. For a player with incredibly sharp TvT and TvP and a brilliant coach like Oov its hard to fathom why he is in this position. But I suppose any rookie who manages to "fluke" an OSL final isn't OSL material and I suppose it's up to fantasy to prove that this season was no fluke.

My gut says it gonna be Fantasy, next OSL hell get a one way trip out of the ro16 and he is never coming back.
