As for all this bullshit about Stork "not being championship material", you jokers obviously have never seen him PvP. He's the only player in the world that is visably better than everyone else in that matchup. Luck factor or not, he's the best PvP in the world and he'll prove it when he beats Bisu. I'm very confident in this kid. He'll show you all.  | ||

Savior pretty much thrashed him, and so did Iris. I believe that 1-5 should be Iris Bisu Stork Savior FBH Has Bisu played anyone on the top 5? Who was in his group? I really don't think he deserves the #1 spot, he pretty much won vs Hwasin with luck, he said so himself, and he got humiliated by Flash twice in a row. Iris however beat Savior, AND gave Stork a thrashing, which is more impressive imho than Bisu's recent record. Before last night, Stork would have been an easy #1 choice for me, but Iris has really shown in the past week that he can TvZ (already known since last year OSL Semis) and TvP. Before this I think he really was unproven. My bets are on Iris to take OSL, and Stork to take MSL. | ||

Anywho, I'd wait a bit on Iris, even if he does seem like a favorite to win OSL at this point. Bisu may have faltered against Flash, but it was a bo3. He barely scratched by Hwasin, but he's still Bisu. If Stork hadn't gotten knocked out by Iris, he probably would have been a shoe in for #1. Even if Iris is playing extremely well right now, he hasn't won OSL yet. Plenty of time to stuff it up. Hopefully he doesn't, I want to see a good series. -_- | ||

What I don't understand, however, is how people who at one moment are talking up Stork as a great toss, turn around and say they dislike Nal_Ra, and they hate watching him. That just blows my mind. It's nearly on the level of someone praising Xellos' style but then saying they can't stand watching Boxer play - ridiculous (and I don't mean that on simply a macro vs micro basis). I personally think Stork's style of play is incredibly boring and makes for bad games, while Ra has consistently brought the scene some of the best moves and games in SC history (as well as -the- best game, but that's beside the point). Now don't get me wrong, my rambling is mostly an aside - I still agree with you. Ra dropping from the top 10 is understandable with his play this past month, and Stork should remain high on the list even after Iris completely dismantled him. I agree 100% on Stork not being above Bisu as well, and it's clear that if he had to face a zerg in either league, he'd have been waxed. If Savior hadn't lost to FBH and Iris, he'd have likely taken out Stork convincingly in both leagues (that would make twice in the MSL) and been in the finals yet again, and we wouldn't have to deal with this silly hype. It should be interesting to see how this shakes up next month after seeing how the OSL and MSL end. | ||

However, i still would like to see FBH vs iris... although iris is on steriods right now.. i still think it'd be a great series (although i think iris would win, i wouldnt be surprised if FBH did) | ||

I find Nal_rA's games to be ugly to watch in general. He tends to win them by macroing against opponents who aren't that great (personal opinion). His group matches with all Terrans he went straight carriers in all of the games (and Boxer was just shaking his head after losing the final game). Now granted, I've only been watching progaming SC the past... oh, 3-4 months, so I can't really speak about anything before then. Also, Stork seems to have one upped him in boringness this in the semis for the time being. | ||
