Blizzard offically announced the final winners. I didn't get first, but 3rd is better than nothing.

I blogged about getting my prize a few days ago, here:

How can you not get it? The scv hasn't built a command center next to a ton of minerals and has a ton of half finished buildings.

Anyone who doesn't understand one of these, remember it's an SC2 contest. You have to dumb yourself down by about 15 years, some of you were still in diapers then.
No I'm never serious.

Yea that looks just like Kang Min... amazing game sense... and uses mind games well, but has the micro of a washed up progamer.

the first one would be a lot better if the balloons were inverted and the ghost was cloaked.

Were the prizes not that big for this contest? I figured there'd be some really polished submissions but like 1st place goes to some dude who took a screenshot and added some text in like MS paint.

I mean compared to the usual response Blizz gets for art submissions (not even contests, just their fanart program) this stuff is pretty weak.
It felt like gravity.

Definently agree with this guy
Looks like all of them but the comic one are half-assed

The second one is clever, but I think the time that went into number three should have bumped it into the top two; possible number one.

Number one just isn't that funny. I didn't laugh or really find it amusing. Number two would have been best if it had some artwork akin to number three.
