Exquisitely written. Not gonna lie, HerO winning DreamHack Winter again would be a pretty sick story.

I think the word you're looking for is gasp... lol


http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/gape


I've never seen the word used like this. I've always thought you needed to have the word mouth(s) before it. :o


I wouldn't say it's uncommon to see it how it was used in the article, tbh.

Artosis even dropped the ominous statement that HerO "has to be the best Protoss in the world," but even that hex didn't stick as HerO continued to play the tournament of his life.

haah thats gold.

I was at DH Winter 2011 and that shit was off the hook, everyone clearly rooting for HerO, him taking it to 3-3 in the finals and ending it with planting 4 manner nexi and ultimately winning accompanied by an immense amount of clapping, whistling and chants of "Hero! Hero!". Brings a tear to my eye just thinking about it

I hope HerO reads this amazing write up and all these comments and goes full out HerO on everyone at DH this weekend.

Winter is HERE! GO HERO!!!!

I highly doubt hero can take this tournament. This tournament is way too stacked and while he is a good player the other players are clearly better than him. But let's wait and see if he has some ace up his sleeve.

Btw life will take this dream hack :D

Jaedong looks unstoppable, then loses 0-4 to HerO in the finals.

ForGG/Hyun/Leenock should win this, so we can stay true to the year-of-no-storyline-2013.

People seem to think that there are no storylines unless the same player wins multiple times. That's not the case, and I can think of several for this tournament that specifically involve players not winning.

+ Show Spoiler +
-Will Jaedong shake off his tendency to choke or will he remain without a major gold in Starcraft II?
-Will Innovation continue to disappoint (relative to his mid-2013 domincnace) or has he fixed the flaws in his play?
-CAN SOS WIN DH TO LAUGH IN PARTINGS FACE?
-Will Naniwa continue to make a case for being the best foreigner (OF ALL TIME) with the home field advantage?
-Can Sjow do something equally insane this time around?
-Can ForGG finally come through with a big win to show everyone that Polt isn't the only guy who can remain top-tier in a foreign country?
-Which of the result twins (MMA and Life) will make the deeper run?
-Will JYP win a game?
