No one knows the real story anyways. People were saying that he was the so called boss of the whole thing that happened.
Incident like this(scandals).The public will almost never know the true story on the insides of the incident.
So it's better to not bring this incident up at all since this is has nothing to do with an Bo1 in an OSL thread.

I think it's been like that for a while. GTR knows his stuff but I personally don't know if the numbers are always the same for like 9-16 or whatever. Though it's easy to confirm first and second has been those prizes for a long time as they present the checks after the games in the final; frequently shown in winner's interviews, as well as vods.

false. savior threw many games, mostly zvz (because its so easy to fuck up).
anyway, this is completely off-topic, please don't raise this issue again in this thread.
hmm, guess OGN wants to start trying some sort of seeding? These matches look like someone set them up to prevent, say, MKP vs MC in the first match. Not against it but interesting nonetheless.

SC2 is more volatile than BW but the games are also shorter.
So a SC2 Bo3 is about as volatile and long as a BW Bo1, there's no reason to not switch to Bo3 for SC2.

yea in broodwar they have this no fight before 20 minute policy or no honor system. People sits at home, never go for timing attack, cheese, or all-in because they don't want to suffer fan's repercussion and hatred.
Has any information been released on whether there will be an English stream? And, more importantly, on the quality of the stream (proper 16: 9, 480p upwards, or will we have to make due with ProLeague quality)?

the VLC HD stream is the best quality SC2 stream that I've seen lately, btw. So I don't mind that quality
