Stork destroys the anti-carrier build, leads protoss to glory
Result: Shortest final ever, Flash wins

EVER 2008 OSL
Flash destroys everyone. Leads new terran age
Result: Flash loses to Luxury in RO8

Incruit 2008 OSL
Kim Carry first declares his curse will be broken this year. Chooses Stork
Result: Stork wins!

Batoo OSL
Kim Carry now says his curse is now a gift from god. He predicts Leta for new RR
Result: leta drops from RO16
