SlayerS_`BoxeR` (Lim Yo-Hwan, SK Telecom T1)
The Terran Emperor
[image loading]


vs

iloveoov (Choi Yeon-Sung, SK Telecom T1)
The Savage Terran/Cheater Terran
[image loading]



Maps order:
1. Bifrost III
2. Pelennor EVER
3. MERCURY
4. Requiem 1.1
5. Bifrost III


Two must-reads articles:
- Interessing facts about OSL finals (translated from FighterForum.com by uhjoo)
- Boxer/Oov/SKT1 manager interviews before OSL finals (another thanks to uhjoo)


To complete that post, I'm gonna quote instantbuzz who wrote an awesome first post on TL.net:

On November 19 2004 15:07 instantbunz wrote:
There were three opinions from the three commentators from OGN.

One of them said that Boxer would win by a lot, because Boxer has been "training" iloveoov for quite some time, and Boxer knows iloveoov the best. Therefore Boxer would know iloveoov's ability to macro-manage. One of the problems is also who will be more nervous. Boxer has gone to the finals so many times, that iloveoov will be at the disadvantage.

Another commentator said that iloveoov will win either 3 to 0 or 3 to 1. This is because many view iloveoov as just less experienced, but Boxer has just made it to the Star League in two years. So the experience level will be similar. The x-factor is that the first map played will be Bitfrost III, as well as the fifth one (if a fifth game is needed). Boxer is most confident in this map, and it is a map especially used by Boxer for all kinds of strategies. If iloveoov is able to overcome Boxer's strategies in this map, then the rest of the game will be easy for iloveoov. Also, Boxer has not really been in the proper mood, including his recent accident, though it was not serious.

The third commentator said that the battle is like a sword vs a shield. Boxer is a very offensive strategist, and iloveoov is a very secure defender. If the game lasts for five games, then iloveoov may have the advantage, since he has a good stamina. But if Boxer uses his strategies and continues to carry the momentum of the game, then he will win.


These commentators are pretty sharp. They know a lot. I personally agree with the third commentator. But Boxer may prove again that he's capable of doing much more than what we know. I heard Boxer is practicing for 10 hours straight everyday, going over replays and thinking of strategies. As a Boxer fan, I still hope for Boxer to win. If Boxer loses, that would mean that he was a good teacher to iloveoov. If Boxer wins, that means he still holds the seat as the Emperor of Terran.

-instantbunz-


Games should start at (edited) 1 AM TL.net time, but I guess there will be some kinds of events and usual mass blah-blah from the commentators, so it's most likely to start at around 2/2:30.

The Savage Terran/Cheater Terran - Cheater Terran? What?

Anyway, yeah, I can't wait!
You learn from losing.

Cheater Terran, due to his ability to make people always wonder "where the fuck did he find the money to produce that many units?".

Recent examples of that would be his first game vs Nada (looked not *that* ahead economically, then he comes out of his base with shitload of tanks from nowhere and rolls over Nada then sandwitch him with mass tanks from two sides). Or there's that recent game vs Sunny in Proleague where the game looks pretty even, and suddenly there are like 10 tanks attacking Sunny's main and crushing everything. :o

Okay so according to Emlary it's starting at 1 AM TL.net time, not 2 AM. Guess the actual games won't begin before 2, though.
