Truth hurts, right? And yes, I am a Naniwa fan because he does not rely on "using a unit's strength" to win. In fact, if I recall correctly, Naniwa used his invited Code S spot well and made it to Round of 8 twice.
It's not hating if it's the truth. You wouldn't happen to be a Naniwa hater, would you? You sound like one of those high school kids who lives in a bubble and will never experience the outside world. Have fun experiencing the real world later dude. I wish you luck, bro.

It's part of the swag_bro business to regularly change your opinion 180° with no prior warning. I think.

BYUL, my man! Well done. I'm in a tough place right now...I'm probably the world's biggest Z fanboy, but I don't relish the idea of a ZvZ finals. On the other hand...I cannot under any circumstance cheer for Rain against Curious...wtf?? With a heavy heart I'm wishing for a ZvZ final.
EDIT: Especially with curious and his impending military service...I want him to win the whole thing, no doubt about it

Yeah, something that this Stephano kid never even attempted. And that was the time when Protoss was at its weakest anyways.

wow respect ByuL. Code S Finals S2 2015 ! sick.

I feel like the tears of the GSL interviewer at the winner's interview really put this all into perspective. There is that shock factor I guess, to see someone who's been so efficient -- almost robotic -- at what she does, suddenly show a very emotional and human side.
For us, ByuL's victory might be just another win/loss at Liquibet. But for him, it's practicing through those long hard years, riddled with disappointments and with no hope in sight. Now, this championship that he's been yearning for so long, is finally within close reach. He's on the verge of making a big splash in the scene, transforming himself from a faceless Korean to a champion that will be etched in people's minds.
I still remember how duckdeok broke down into tears after winning WCS Europe. There are so many progamers that retire without a single championship title (or even an appearance in a tournament final) to their names. ByuL said in this interview, that this might've been his last year as a progamer if he couldn't make it to the finals. He could easily have been one of them. These guys are hungry for that championship, and I feel it's something that we as audience tend not to notice through their polite and sometimes banal interviews.
I hate him for eliminating PartinG. But any one who works as hard for his/her dream as these guys deserves respect. Some of the player hate in this thread is just outrageous.

Well you just remembered them yourself, didn't you? Everyone remembers Seed, Sniper, RorO or jjakji... precisely because they won. Meanwhile, who actually remembers guys like  asd, Clide, IMHappy, or even  AcE?

Played some entertaining games and then gracefully fell to the new Zerg lord. New Zerg lord? Yeah right buddy. Don't you remember Roro and Sniper? They were supposed to be the new Zerg lords too. Haha you're really funny dude, I'll give you that. They certainly would have been had we not, you know, switched expansions. I forget which caster set had pointed it out but players like Roro had perfected BL/infestor and would have likely been able to dominate for months/years had nothing changed. Also FUCK YEA BYUL, now curious just has to join him Dude you're really funny. At that time period, there were little to no Zergs who did not quote on quote "perfect" BL/Infestors. There are reasons why kids like Stephano "won" tournaments. Reasons like intelligence you mean. You can't really mean that Stephano only won because of BL/Infestor. Stephano is a really really smart guy who always found a way to find out how he can use some units strengths to the limit (some would call it "abusing"). And that months before it became the meta or a viable strat. He for sure wasn't a mechanical genius, but he was on top of his game, and deserved several wins and finales. Stating that it was just because of BL/Infestor would be stupid, he was dominating the european scene and some koreans over years and gave them a run for their money. Well I guess players also used the strength of the blink Stalker, SCV pull, 1-1-1, Soul Train, Swarm Hosts etc... right? And glad to see Stephano dominating these "some Koreans" when he stole a spot from a deserving player's GSL Code S. oh how original, a stephano hater. you wouldn't happen to be a naniwa fan by any chance? stephano won his fair share of tournaments with roach max vs protoss and ultralisk/infestor vs terran. and used broodlord/infestor way before koreans. go and educate yourself before you spout the hate. Truth hurts, right? And yes, I am a Naniwa fan because he does not rely on "using a unit's strength" to win. In fact, if I recall correctly, Naniwa used his invited Code S spot well and made it to Round of 8 twice. It's not hating if it's the truth. You wouldn't happen to be a Naniwa hater, would you? You sound like one of those high school kids who lives in a bubble and will never experience the outside world. Have fun experiencing the real world later dude. I wish you luck, bro. lol you don't wanna go down that road;) yea naniwa went 100% monstermode with that 0-6 record in first round of code a vs mediocre zergs after his first invites Yeah, something that this Stephano kid never even attempted. And that was the time when Protoss was at its weakest anyways.
You have absolutely no idea of what you're talking about. I guess you hate him because you ain't him.

I feel like the tears of the GSL interviewer at the winner's interview really put this all into perspective. There is that shock factor I guess, to see someone who's been so efficient -- almost robotic -- at what she does, suddenly show a very emotional and human side.
For us, ByuL's victory might be just another win/loss at Liquibet. But for him, it's practicing through those long hard years, riddled with disappointments and with no hope in sight. Now, this championship that he's been yearning for so long, is finally within close reach. He's on the verge of making a big splash in the scene, transforming himself from a faceless Korean to a champion that will be etched in people's minds.
I still remember how duckdeok broke down into tears after winning WCS Europe. There are so many progamers that retire without a single championship title (or even an appearance in a tournament final) to their names. ByuL said in this interview, that this might've been his last year as a progamer if he couldn't make it to the finals. He could easily have been one of them. These guys are hungry for that championship, and I feel it's something that we as audience tend not to notice through their polite and sometimes banal interviews.
I hate him for eliminating PartinG. But any one who works as hard for his/her dream as these guys deserves respect. Some of the player hate in this thread is just outrageous. Like how everyone remembers Seed, Sniper, Roro and Jjakji ... or what? Well you just remembered them yourself, didn't you? Everyone remembers Seed, Sniper, RorO or jjakji... precisely because they won. Meanwhile, who actually remembers guys like asd, Clide, IMHappy, or even AcE?
No, I just looked up a list of GSL champions on Liquipedia and was utterly surprised that those 4 that I listed were even on the list.
