That was an awesome write up! You really did a great job of summing up the OSL and even went beyond that, nice pictures too.

Impressive job as always Plexa. I don't know any StarCraft writer that is as clean and big in scope writing wise. As a writer over at SC2GG, I definitely have learned a lot from your articles. Can't wait to see more later on.

I know you have a burning, passionate hate for skt1 bisu fans plexa, but aren't you overdoing it by now?

Reading your articles has one wondering not so much what you will write about, but instead where you will find room for some bisu detraction.

Wow. This was worth the wait. Riptide's finals write up was stunning! I'll never forget this OSL and Riptide expressed precisely why.

I don't believe Flash vs Hwasin was uploaded... I get some summary instead that doesn't even include the game...

The question following Jaedong every Starleague from now on is "are we going to see another Golden Mouse?". History tells us that Jaedong will not be winning his third OSL next season - but then again Jaedong doesn't play by histories rules. He appears to be immune to the OSL curse and hence it is quite likely we'll see Jaedong up receiving another trophy next season. However, if he does do that, a part of me will die inside and some of the magic of Starcraft will be lost forever. Boxer is the only player to win back to back OSLs, and should Jaedong do the same, it will be a sad day for us old schoolers. Nevertheless, the future is in Jaedong's very capable hands.

Wouldn't Jaedong winning back to back OSLs return starcraft away from the recent trend of many top players who can mostly beat each other on any given day?

I think you sum it up well by saying that this was the perfect OSL.

Odd about the Flash vs Hwasin game; it's fixed now

I just comment on what I see is relevant, and Bisu is indeed relevant in Batoo OSL. And no, I don't have a burning hate for bisu or his fans - bisu was raised on MBC after all.
