Stork beat MarineKing 3-1 to take the second "Baedalnet ESTV cup"
source: http://www.inven.co.kr/webzine/news/?news=109384&iskin=esports
In the post match Interview Stork said "after the patch my winrate dropped down to 40% against Terrans and because of this I didn't have much confidence against my opponent. Even today I would have preferred a different opponent, my performance wasn't good so i'm feeling frustrated."
When asked which map was the most difficult he replied "the 2nd set was the hardest. In the beginning MKP blocked my strategy so I thought there's no way I can win. While holding him back with my phoenix I twisted my wrist. My wrist really started to flare up. My colossi number started to pile up and with the last of my concentration I prepared for a win."
"When there's concurrent seasons my win rate isn't good. I haven't done well in the individual league. My understanding of the game has increased, recently my hands have been stiff which is a concern... The team atmosphere is good, in a good team everyone teaches each other that way we can win consistently."
When asked to say something for his fans "I haven't shown good form in the last 2 years of Starcraft 2. Recently I've been participating in a lot of good leagues. In this finals there were many people cheering for me, so I specially prepared for it during practice. With the remaining proleague matches I'll definitely win as many as possible."

Grats to Stork, the last Dragon!
By the way, is there any detailed info on this tour? What was the prize pool? Who participated? Is there any bracket?
|
Grats Stork !!! Also really odd (Korean) Protosses claim to have bad win rates vs Terran, while whenever I see TvP it's looking grim for the Terrans.

I was never a Stork fan during the Brood War era, but it's good to see as the last of the original six dragons, he's still kicking strong in the current SC2 scene.

I'm really happy for Stork. Hopefully this win boosts his confidence, so he can perform more consistently, especially in Proleague.

Didn't follow brood war but this guy is inspiring. Such a kickass nickname too, the Last Dragon. He's the only one left to stand against the newer pipsqueaks!

I tried to warn you. /:

What happens when two second place finishers meet each other in the finals?

I think every Protoss is struggling with PvT on ladder, somehow this hasn't translated to tournament settings yet.
Maybe because there's a number of allins and greedy builds you can do.

It's great to see some of these bw legends do well in sc2 after struggling in the beginning. He just got a double kill vs SKT in Proleague and has a Code S spot aswell.

Its funny that both JD and Stork have won a tournament in SC2 before Flash, definitely didn't see this coming.
Congrats to Stork, ancient dragon fighting!

MKP, king of kongs.
hahahaha he just came back from LoL and sat on #2 immediately

Oh man. Good to finally see Stork win something. I was afraid that he'd just fade into obscurity and never come back. 
Hopefully he can start dishing out the goods in Pro-League too.
|
What was the prize money?`

|
|
I have to give Stork props. Guy was too proud to be bad imo. I wish him the best of luck always.
|
Stork has always been the smartest player out of TBLS.
It's no surprise he starts getting results once he found the motivation to practice (and get his mechanics on par).

Stork! Awesome. It's great that he seems to be enjoying the game too. His tears when he double-killed SKT were moving.

Maybe Stork will be the first bw premier tourney champion to win a premier sc2 tournament, since I don't consider the invite-only ASUS ROG NorthCon that Jaedong won a premier tournament...
