I hadn't seen a thread of this topic, so I decided to make on myself and let the community express Here is mine, because I was under the impression at first that the korean GSL organizer people (idk what to call them) were pretty nonchalant and then by the end of the event it seemed John was really emotionally moved, and that is AWESOME. Feel free to post your favourite moment. | ||

Barcraft Montreal #1, for MLG Orlando, my first barcraft. Being surrounded by a few hundred other nerds who are all cheering for HuK in the finals, just as I am, and then MC fails his cannon rush, and we know... We all know, HuK's gonna win, he can't screw this up, he can't possibly fail, the game is his, the tournament is his. The moment comes. MC calls gg. Confetti fall on us. Beautiful moment. | ||

I actually have a few moments, and I cannot pick between them: - TSL3, not any game in particular, just the whole thing. It was the first time I actually sat down and thought that watching people play a computer game was actually pretty good. From the early on games, watching players who I hardly knew who they were, to the 'CHILL GET OUT' it was all pretty epic. - MC and Idra at Columbus (iirc) and the whole rivalry that went on between them and the epic games MC showed to win 4-2 from 2-0 down (again, iirc, memory is going atm lol). - MC at Orlando winning back his Code S slot <3 - WhiteRa in the MLG promo video, see my sig. Also his MLG run <3 - Leenocks win at Providence. Despite not fancying him to win the whole way, I was happy for him. A young player with a long future (Bonjwa inc, according to a friend) in the game winning on such a stage. There are probably more I will remember, but that will do for now | ||

2. MLG Raleigh: An event that a lot of people overlooked this year because of the weak line-up and the weather situation, but one that I traveled to personally. It was another amazing experience for me, getting to meet and talk to players from Bomber, CoCa, and DongRaeGu to qxc, Sheth (Who for some reason asked me if I worked at Blizzard), HayprO and HerO. I had a great time, and got some friends who aren't as in to Starcraft as I am to enjoy the trip with me. 3. MLG Orlando: For the same reasons as MLG Raleigh, it was quite an amazing trip for me, as well as my friends. One of my friends played piano with Destiny at one point, and I got to meet a lot more amazing players. iNcontroL did blow me off for dinner though, unfortunately. 4. Playing a warm-up game with TSLHeart on his stream: I may not be the best player around, and this game certainly proved it, but I happened to be watching his stream (as is obvious, I'm a bit of a TSL fanboy) and he said he was switching over to the NA server. I jokingly asked him to play a game against me, and to my surprise he agreed, and I got my chance to lose to a TSL player. It was a very special moment for me. 5. All the late nights spent on TeamLiquid in the LiveReport threads watching the GSL. I wouldn't trade those nights for anything else really. My Top 5. | ||

I love watching TvZ and MMA is my favourite player. MMA winning the first three games then DRG coming from behind to even the score to set up an awesome game 7. I love games that go back and forth and this was just the perfect example of games I love. Edit: I love that "Happy Birthday thing in my description bar there. That's pretty cool :-D | ||

2) Nestea v. SC game 5. 3) BoxeR v. Idra MLG Orlando. Given the context of BoxeR staying alone to practice all night before, making an improbable run through the bracket, and emptying both barrels against a mechanically superior player, this was really emotional. 4) QXC All kill 5) Taeja sending the emperor to Code S. Yeah I'm a fanboy, so sue me | ||

I think the energy and crowd from Blizzcon was amazing, and I only saw it via stream. But I had a friend there who was at Blizzcon not for Starcraft 2, but everything else. And at the end of the day he figured "Well might as well see what's going on here" and though he knew nothing coming into it, he was a screaming fan by the end of game 1 let alone game 5. | ||

After we finished our homework, I checked again, and he had moved up to 2nd place, but it still looked like he wasn't going to get to Code S. I really couldn't take the suspense during the day, during Lunch I went up to the library to check on Lim Yo Hwan's triumph, yet it was in use by a Biology Class. Last period of the day, I had Computer class, sitting right next to Mark. Under the watchful eye of our bitchy teacher, I stealthily navigated to TL.net, and found out the result.
