Great writeup. Nice to read

and then shredded jjakji apart with four Colossi on Daedalus Point.

When describing MC vs. jjakji

MC played the 4 collosi on Frost. On Daedalus he played the proxy stargate.

I'm happy that despite english being a 2nd language, much of MC's personality manages to make it through. This doesn't happen automatically; it's really through a ton of effort put on his part. People like HerO can technically speak the language, but much of their korean "persona" won't shine through the language barrier.

LOL fantastic. I had been following the Jjakji/Dayshi bromance, such a good developing storyline that I hope results in a head to head in premier next season. The takeover of the game analysis was bloody hilarious. Hail to the boss toss! :D

Haha, yeah, the bromance was the best part of EU. When we started writing this wrap, it was the first thing that jumped into my head. This, paired with Startalk, is making me realize that Jjakji is a goofy guy. Hope he ends up at HSC again, specially since his English is apparently picking up a bit.

There's a reason he's called "MC". The guy has been a legend on the mic since homestory cup 1 (I think).

The third one was his first http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/HomeStory_Cup/3

Edit: Look at that powerful Tarson
Again: #7 this time was "Team" by Lorde

MC winning and call me maybe topping the chart leads me to believe that this was the source of MC's power back then.

Awesome write up! So much has happened since MC last won, and it's crazy to see how it all came to fruition. WCS EU was very consistent and really refreshing to see, despite all the negativity surrounding WCS in regards to region lock and such.

Until next season!

As a fan I want to congratulate ESL by the great production that they brought this first season. It was fun to watch and it seems a very good atmosphere in that studio between players, casters and production crew.
Important factors:
- Caster choice: Kaelaris, Tod, Nathanias, Apollo and Rotterdam. People that are good at casting and fun to watch;
- Redeye you very important to the show and to Starcraft in general;
- ESL production. There are things to improved but I like to watch the events produced by ESL.
