Club Day Online MSL Quarterfinal Match: (P)Stork vs (P)Kal.

Stork: progaming is all about Stork right now as he is dominating the progaming scene like a bonjwa right now. Teamliquid and it's hater bandwagon are all over the guy since his advancment into the OSL final. There have been eight threads on Stork in less than a week. Stork is on his way to becoming probably the most accomplished protoss player ever; a protoss Nada perhaps. Stork is 11 wins away from becoming the protoss with the most wins ever. Given that Nalra is retired, Reach is close to retirement and Bisu, Anytime, and Best need 69, 66, and 124 wins respectively to tie him at the moment, it is pretty likely that Stork will hold that record forever. How many commas can I fit in a sentence? Along with that, Stork has by far the best winning percentage of any protoss who has played a large amount of games at 62.2%. No protoss with over 150 games played has a winning percentage over 59%. Also Stork will have been the protoss tied for the most starleague final appearances at four. Finally Stork, since his ressurgence in early 2007 after a failed 2006, has been an unconscious 127-60 (68%). No progamer has had such mind boggling consistency after being near 50% winrate for the first two years of their career. As we can see Stork's stats are bithchin. However he needs a you know what to become that all time best. Even though his opponent here is stylistically a lost different from Best, Stork's mirror has got to be juiced up like he just shot up 3 bottles of PvP steroids.


[image loading]

Kal is facing an opponent who just splattered a 85% PvP winrate toss on a 16 PvP game win streak. This is a good opportunity for Kal to panic out of his mind. However, being the progamer he is, Kal should look back at his MSL semifinal bo5 against Jangbi as inspiration for the upcoming battle. In that series Kal overcame a better player who stomped him in 2 straight up macro games. Kal should implement cheesy/aggressive strategies to try and hopefully throw Stork off balance. There is absolutely no way Kal can take on Stork in a macro battle. Against Stork Kal is going to have to be the Stork of the Stork vs Best series.

I'm actually not really a fan of Stork. I just really, really hate the anti-Khan bandwagon.

I also like a bit of bias in my ops just for some controversy.

I just thought I'd point out that Stork mentioned Kal as one of the players who helped him practice to beat Best in his interview. Will this give Kal extra insight into Stork's play?
Force staff is the best item in the game.

haha i think the stork bandwagon is a lot larger than the hater bandwagon - it's just the haters have to yell louder to match the other side.

lol. b4 stork beat best, and b4 u could put the team logo by your sig, i only knew of a few other stork fans. excluding the bandwagoners (b/c most of them aren't true fans), there are probably alot more stork haters than fans
Stork's biggest fan

Rooting for Stork, wont be suprised if Kal manages to pull it off.. SOMEHOW.

Stork is known for his ability to beat himself before his opponent does. (no goon range, 14 nexus, getting dt rushed)
