[MSL] Ro16 Day 1
Banner by lightwhip
The Main Show For years broodwar had not been kind to its forgotten race, protoss. For years the likes of Reach,Nal_rA, Kingdom, and Anytime challenged the gods of BroodWar, and reach for the stars, punching holes in what seemed to be the unbreakable grasp of the metal lords known as terran, and the vile swarm of zerg. Flashes of brilliance, transient beauty, and moments of awe, had us convinced at times, protoss can do this, they can be dominant. But all fell short of one word....consitency. Sure protoss did well but when the finals came around, they won silver, or didn't show up. No one seemed to be able to solve the problem of how to deal with the other races, outside of quick gimmicks, capitalizing on mistakes, or just sheer luck. That was until 2005 when two protoss, broke into the top 30 kespa ranks. Quietly over two years they refined the macthup until 2007, when there [Teak Bang] era was at hand. Whispers of greatness were heard. Revolutions were held. Changing the game] forever these two would lead theyre respective mactchups to new heights.Bisu, who saw no answer changed the rules of PvZ.

Stork would solved terran, enough said, when this kid puts his cell phone down, his pvt is unparalled.
Stork in his OSl victory over Fantasy
The Taek bang era changed protoss forever, both times, these two protoss players showed us that protoss can not only just win, but keep wining. Stork would lead Samsung KHAN to victory, and Bisu would lead SK Telecom T1 to theres. They are now two of the most consistent players in brood war....And now we witness the battle for the protoss thrown!
The sky will fall, the earth shall part, and we will see who is the last toss standing + Show Spoiler +

JAEDONG VS BISU FINALS INCOMING
+ Show Spoiler +fix your tlpd its really distracting
|
My goodness, there are only 2 games I care about tonight - Jaedong/Midas and Bisu/Stork.
I can't pick who I want to win between Jaedong and Midas - I think I will be fairly happy with either. Midas comes from the old school class, and it'd be great to see him win a SL. However, Jaedong has been my favourite player for at least the last 1-2 years.
Hoping for a Bisu win, but only just because of all the hype that's he's "coming back".
|
IM SO PUMPED HAHA it's just too bad they're using the split bo3 format. I'd rather three two bo3s today and the two other bo3s on Day 3.
|
How do you mean by split bo3?
|
Aww, I was gonna make this. I'll try to make a banner though.

After a long break from BW, i need my fix like a junkie.
|
|
awesome writeup, is should be a good night of starcraft for broodwar and starcraft ii
|
I hope the first 3 takes FOREVER, so when I get up in 8 hours, I will see the bisu v stork game!
|
I can't believe I'm going to miss this -_-
|
If Jaedong doesn't win I will be a sad panda. I mean I liek teh baby bear too, but seriously I want to see a JvBisu/Stork Bo5 again. Even if the games themselves aren't awe inspiring, the tension that comes from watching giants fight is always a rush =) And the chances of sick games coming out are always higher with them :p

Go Hydra, Midas, and Bisu!! Although I don't really care who really wins in these games, I only really hope that Classic gets schooled by Hydra badly... Classic doesn't seem to belong in the Round of 16 imo. :/ And if Jaedong loses to the baby bear, that will make this MSL even more spiced up than before, ufufufuu. >:3
We shall see who the true current dominant toss is in the last match. I really hope that I don't fall asleep early/can wake up in time for these seemingly epic games. Why do we have to have another ZvZ plague us again though? (No pun intended.)
May the best toss win! *Hype hype hype*
|
May the hype train begin! Go Stork!!!!!!!!!!!!
|
Stork vs Bisu, is this a nightmare? Its too soon.... At least let them fight on a Best of Five. Best of 3 ugh. I wish Stork summons all his power from Khala and Bisu to unleash his forces of the Void. God this feels like Adun vs Tassadar.
|
Even though it is an MSL I still believe in you, Byong Go!
|
We must have Bisu v. Jaedong for MSL finals. Please BW gods do not deny us. If you give us this I promise to sacrifice 5 copies of SC2 and 2 goats in your honor.
|
I think it's obligatory that for a Bisu vs Stork matchup, I need to remind Stork once again to RESEARCH GOON RANGE.
That said, may the best man(Stork) wins.
