Heading towards the finals, the Royal Roader (T)by.fantasy. A relative new-comer to the main stage, he doesn't fail to impress.

The next SKT1 Terran in the line of ruling Terran Dynasty, (T)Oov has now taken him under his wing with the revolutionary metal build for his unfortunate Zerg opponents. Now we will see how he handle the monster Protoss,+ Show Spoiler +
(P)Stork
in the Incruit OSL 2008 finals.

You missed Nada in terms of dynasty.

If it just was iloveoov-Fantasy it would've been a better analogy though.

Decent clip, nothing extraordinary, nothing bad. Wish it had more to it though.

Fantasy has a shitload more practice time than the winners of best vs stork. He is going to rape the fuck out of that guy regardless of who it is...no doubt.

It goes the other way, too... just playing devil's advocate, not saying you're wrong necessarily. Anyway, Best and Stork both have frightening PvT so it won't be an easy match for Fantasy.

I dont care what happens as long as Stork doesn't get another silver. That would be sad.
May the BeSt man win.

I was going towards more of an SKT dynasty between Boxer -> oov -> Fantasy, with the recent saying that oov was handing him strategies now.

I didn't really have much to work with with the clip. Not many games to choose from..Maybe after the finals who knows ^_~.

+1, it would be cool to see an all-T1 final. What would be cooler, though, is BeSt winning this OSL.

Fantasy's got some killer TvT and TvZ. But I'm not quite sure if his TvP is good enough to beat Stork or Best at the moment. But who knows? This guy's got some fucked up builds.
God Bless

I can't find a list of people who made it through the royal road, and people who were close. I know that boxer and nada made it through the royal road, and that jaedong was close, and now fantasy is on it.

On a separate note, fantasy has shown some really really good games. However, he hasn't shown himself yet in the bo5. Ask best how a bo5 is different from a bo3, or proleague ace xD.

What is a "Royal Roader"
A Royal Roader is a player who wins the OSL the first time they participate in the OSL. Any player who achieves this feat is said to have walked the "Royal Road". Currently the following players have walked the Royal Road; Boxer, Garimto, Nada, July, Anytime, Savior and Jaedong

Here's what might happen.

Stork beats Best.
Fantasy beats Stork.
Stork gets second place.

Go Fantasy!

What this, Zerg have more Royal Roaders then Terran? Just another reason Fantasy will win.

Nice video. For Fantasy to be put alongside Boxer and Iloveoov... he has to actually win something! He is a refreshing new player and I hope your optimism turns out to be justified!

Fantasy's tvp is way better than his tvz.I think fantasy won the series vs ggplay mostly because of his build. Not trying to put him down because he executed really well but after seeing the 3rd game on return of the king his bionic is nowhere near top level but casy won his sl without having top tier tvp so luck sortof does play a role.

I honestly though Fantasy was gonna be slaughtered by GGPlay but instead impressed me a lot and he gave me that new mech build that I've been using with some considerable success so he is now one of my favourite players and I shall be cheering for him against whichever evil toss makes the finals.
