July will swing his Golden Mouse like a flail and slaughter his way up right to another championship.

Hmm I don't understand how the format works in the OSL, since I am still new to programming. But I thought Bisu was knocked out vs. By.Hero and there was a huge uproar because of it. What did I miss?

You missed the wildcards, which are not normal, because BackHo had to drop out due to injury. This allowed an extra space for another player, so all the players who lost second in the Round of 36 had a shot against each other in a wildcard format last week.

July won in EVER08, so if he's to be the runner-up, he should have done that in Incruit. Sadly he didn't.
BTW, if my memory serves me right, July has 13 tickets to OSL Ro16, but he has entered OSL 14 times since the 3 Shinhan OSLs in 2006 are all in Ro24 format.

July did the runner up finish always two Starleagues after a championship. Gillette >>> IOPS and Ever05 >>> Shinhan 05 so Batoo would be two after Ever08.

And memory does serve you correctly, July did make it into Shinhan1, but lost before the Round of 16. I only counted Round of 16 appearances (as I also left out the Round of 36 in more recent OSLs). The only other OSL he has missed since his debut in Gillette is Daum OSL.

Ahh I see, thanks for the explanation.

Well hopefully Bisu makes good use of this rare chance.

Of course I made them myself

Since I had fun making them and that they got positive feedback I'll probably do something similar in the future.
