The thing that I really like about Stork, is that he does not have Bisu's multitasking skills, Jaedong tactical mind or Flash maphackesque game-sense. He just plays really really solid (except in finals...), and in that he showed everyone that even if you are not a genius as the above three others, you could achieve number 1 by work dedication. He even played with a relatively low apm (around 200/250 I think), so he is really the "man of the people".

One thing that I find funny when we think of the two protoss Stork/Jangbi vs Bisu/Best is that Jangbi was like Stork very good at PvT and worse at PvZ, wheras Bisu was the best ever for PvZ but pretty bad in PvT while Best was much better in PvT than PvZ.

The first professional bw game I watched was Stork vs Keke. Love at first sight...

I don't really believe that success is the product of some super gene or fantastical natural endowment, so I find Stork really inspiring. There's nothing magical about his success, he just earned every inch of it with sweat.

In the achievements listed at the bottom of the article, did it mention that he is one of the three to achieve 100 osl wins? It should ><

Haven't heard of him in a long time, I don't think he even tried to qualify for Code A?

He's transitioning. In fact I think he sounded especially interested in sc2 the last interview he gave. I definitely was worried he would be calling time on his career. Watching his FFs against flash at anaheim I'm surprised we haven't seen him make a splash yet.

Wow! I couldn't tell who was winning. The SC2 interface with the observer panel is really useful for supply comparisons etc...
I thought the Zerg had the game in the bag after the big win in the center. Don't know how the toss came back from that.

By the way, do they not have air conditioning? Why the heck is that guy sweating that much? Man, having your heart rate up so much while sitting down and playing a computer game definitely doesn't seem healthy.


Are you really saying that you've never been in a competitive or nerve wracking environment?
You can sweat buckets at -5c if you're 'excited' enough.
