sexy YellOw !
If you haven't seen YellOw against NaDa, go and watch it. Now~
The prelude to the confrontation was rather gloomy. We few YellOw disciples were beset by the cruel jibes of his antis and summertime fans. In the live report thread, eight or nine people predicted that NaDa would take YellOw on tourism bus.
The game itself was yawn rape. YellOw annihilated NaDa mercilessly with strategies straight out of 2004. Nobody does 2 hatch muta into mass expo guardian rush nowadays - except YellOw. Fell out of style in late '05 anyways, after this kind of crap started happening:
oov vs YellOw on Neo Forte - the 3 fac tank game. That is many tank, yes?
'06 seemed like YellOw's last hurrah - a run in OSL stopped by Neo Emperor Casy. Again denied by a Terran 2-3 in the last stretch of StarLeague. Shinhan 3 was very ugly. His one win was against Shine[Name] - not exactly a proud victory. Despite OnMedia rearranging StarLeague rules for him, he was unable to win against TT of all people and fell out of SL.
He's been in a rather bad funk ever since. Highly depressing for us fans. For me, there were a few months with no Reach and no YellOw in major leagues - painful. Reach is back, but YellOw kept failing in offlines.
Reach/YellOw 2v2 got KTF to first place in SKY Proleague '06 second term. YellOw didn't do well in 1v1s, though. His fans slowly dwindled away, and more and more people turned their back on him and called him muktwi.
Then yesterday's games came. And, to my great delight, he triumphed!
This is by no means his return to dominance. I don't expect him to roll over everyone like he did in Olympus. Yet it's a start - and to see him back in StarLeague would be enough. Here's to 홍진호
Storm Zerg is back!
oh yeah, his DCinside EXPLODED after his win. 3+ pages of new threads -_-;
