I personally loved the famous game on Blue Storm between these two titans. If compared to their previous matches, these 5 games were pretty disappointing. They had more epic games in the past imo.

If this OSL produces anything other than an epic rematch it's going to be a disappointment. What a great time to be a starcraft fan!

Are you guys really that uppset about the fives? I mean, he also gave jaedong two tens! If you give someone a 10 it means they have the PERFECT micro and offensive skills. I would never give jaedong that rating.

Not exactly the best series from 2009. Not enough back-and-forth for my liking, but maybe that's just me being picky.

Game 5 was disappointing as hell, although it was fun to hear Nick and Daniel's shouts of bewilderment.

By the way, those two make an excellent commentator team. Tasteless obviously has his enthusiasm (I mean during the match - not his little peptalks before the start) and his humor, while Daniel has plenty of tactical insights, can tell a lot about the proscene and brings the "Korean commentator" vibe to the table.

And there's some good synergy between them when they talk about tactics and strategy. Their comments don't overlap too much, they touch upon different subjects, yet they mesh together extremely well.

yeah at the beginning of game 5 I thought "now it's gonna be tough for both players. surely it'll be a huge, long, macro-heavy, exciting game.".
boy was I disappointed when bisu didn't hold his ramp and the game was suddenly over.

The problem I have with Back-and-Forth is that it means someone was making mistakes after having the advantage. What you basically want then is people playing somewhat badly to equalize the game.

When both players are playing VERY well they will take any early game advantage and run with it which is exactly what happened in games 1-4. I like that style of play better, razor edge type of thing.

Python is garbage, number 1 advocate of getting rid of it.

Fuck yeah, great writeup, OSL finals rematch gogogo!

Game 5 was okay purely because of Tasteless's "IT'S CALLED HOLD POSITION, BRO" that had me waking my parents up at 3am


This.

Excellent writeup for some excellent games.

Would be nice to put GOM links in the OP though. I think by now they know the foreigner community is watching, but more hits can't hurt.
