I'm so glad that soO finally got that premier tier championship that he has been wanting for so long. And not just him. His fans waited FOREVER for this moment. So many tears were shed today. And for all the right reasons too.

First Serral and now soO, it's like StarCraft 2 is having the best time ever.

Surely the streets of Korea will be filled with celebration as its champion returns in glory. Many people are already expecting the reunification of the country in a swelling of pride over soO's achievement. And the return of proleague.


Lol korea darkest hour = 2 non koreans total making it thru open brackets .....for 75% korean field from ro24....all korean ro4. From the looks of things in terms of skill Korea doing just fine.

soO's zvz games with serral are insanely great, I think the third game could definitely be one of the best game of 2019.

Easily the best storyline that could happen this year for me. soO finally getting his championship, especially after his 2018 performance where he looked ready to end his career and move on, is just so incredible. The only thing that could have made it better is if his series vs Serral had been the finals imo. Congrats to soOjwa, he most certainly earned it.
