Maps:
R-Point
Neo Forte
Ride of Valkyries
815
R-Point
My prediction: Oov wins, but not 3-0. Anytime is just too good not to take a game.

Anytime's trademark is definitely the dark templar. I like his nickname "Sasin" (meaning God of Death) better than "Gateway manager". Oov's smile before the game just turned to a frown. lol. | ||

Oov was focused on watching the replay, noticed Anytime, Anytime put his head down and Oov did the same. Plain simple. It was obvious to me when I watched it live, anyway. | ||

It was obvious to me too when I watched it live. Anytime made a gesture to shake hands, but oov just stared at him. In all of the cases, the player doesn't go up to the other just to 인사. It's not a Korean thing to do. | ||

He clearly disrupted oovs gameplan in the first game, and oov seemed shaken after that on Forte. Have you noticed how much more powerful "cheese" play is in game 1 in a BO-series compared to the game following a loss? Not a bad idea anyway since straight up protoss play doesn't seem powerful enough on this map. It's like players aren't mentally prepared for it that early, and it seems more expected by a player in a more desperate situation. I wonder if anytime would have sent his goon to scout proxy building on forte there if he hadn't won game 1. Perhaps oov could have put down a lot more mines in the center, but I guess he thought anytime had observers he didn't have. Anyways, the early advantage decided the game on a protoss favoring map. (at least from those positions.) Game 3 was cool play by oov though and he rode out the storm and punished anytimes cheekyness. He does it yet again??? Here anytime might have made one less at one stage zeal and produced more probes to get earlier goon. I don't think cannoning into oovs main would have worked here, since he already was so starved. Game 4 anytime did a buildg I thought myself might, just might work and a stronger choice than DT drop, but man. If oov had scouted with his wraith, anytime would have been a dead man. I guess he was too afraid to lose his wraith, and wanted to hunt shuttles with it. Bad call in hindsight. The double expand seemed unecessarily greedy, oov should have trusted his play and realized he doesn't need to outexpand anytime on 815. When the drop came, he was just caught with his pants down. Many ifs in that game and a lucky win sort of. 2/2 and we have a PvT finals where the championest of them all and a new strong contender face off. I'm happy. I actually managed to stay clear of any threads and just went for the vods so it was excititing up to the end of game 2 when I knew he won the series. I actually found myself relaxing at that stage. Phew, someone punctured oov's inflated ego. It's one thing to be cocky, it's one thing to have an attitude, but disrespecting his opponents is just lame. Glad he lost. | ||

I still haven't seen or heard anything that would indicate that Oov is arrogant. He's probably not the most humble for sure, and he always speaks frankly and honestly (from what I've read), but nothing arrogant. Well, apart from that, thanks for the nice sumups of the games. | ||

He's probably not the most humble for sure, and he always speaks frankly and honestly (from what I've read), but nothing arrogant. Well, apart from that, thanks for the nice sumups of the games. When I heard of the match against JJu whom I like who is cocky as well but in a more cheeky way I lost a lot of respect for oov as a competetive gamer. He was trying to fuck around and make ghosts and try and "own" him in a cool way in a game he was clearly just about to win instead of just finishing the game right away. That imo is BM. You don't see a marathon runner way ahead on the final sprint towards the finish, stop and make a silly dance or lie down and pretend to have a sleep and skip over the finish line just before the second place runner comes along. That would be outrageous, no? The same way in hockey when the other team has their goalie in the booth, a player who's free with the puck doesn't fuck around and do any cool moves etc and instead just lays it in. That would also be outrageous, yes? I've seen this once in a match and way to be booed. Edit: To clarify, I at least find it extremely rude too belittle someone who tried their best. I also think it wouldn't hurt to make it mandatory for the players to either shake hands (or bow if asian, but in soccer it's handshake, and they play that in Korea too, so why not. It also seems more personal to meand there is no confusion involved regarding how much you should bow etc given rank and status) before and after the game. | ||

I see your point. You're right of course. I chose my words poorly. What I meant was that his attitude and cofidence showed in a bad way in the JJu game. It's not wrong to have a high opinion of oneself. In fact, it's usually a good thing. But what JJu said against taking out SKT1, I think it was more for show. I don't think even he believed it when he said it. Boy did that one backfire on him. | ||

Actually, oov DID do that several times to a few other players. I can't remember all of them, but one was against Goodfriend on Nostalgia. It was perfectly clear that oov had won, and the commentators were ready to say "GG", as they kept on saying that it was 99% won. Oov then started just to fortify the choke and expanded/defended everywhere, making mass wraiths and tanks, and played around with him here and there. That was particularly famous, as people were mentioning that in the forums a while ago. On the other hand, Boxer vs Chojja: Boxer had faked Chojja out by making it look like he was going mechanic, on Luna. Boxer went bio instead, and Chojja wasted his upgrades on hydra range/speed. Chojja then had to make sunkens, and wasted more minerals there. Boxer was clearly in the lead. At one point in the game, Chojja said, "Battle?" meaning that Chojja was asking Boxer if he was making Battlecruisers, because he was so much in the lead. But Boxer didn't overkill. He just attacked with enough to win the game. | ||

I don't see a problem with securing your win 100% instead of risking the remaining 1%. Oov is the kind of players who masses when his opponent lets him do so. Maybe he didn't know he was so ahead. Well, I'm just supposing here, but if you've got some link for the vod of this game, I'd be glad to see it and give a more objective input. Anyway, I've seen lots of games where the guy leading just secures instead of finishing, it's pretty common and I doubt you can say it's similar to what he did vs Jju. | ||

There has been ALOT of similar situations like Elky nuking Gundam and Boxer nuking Elky at WCG. JJu getting mindcontroled by Kingdom, Rock building himself up with Terran vs Fofy on Luna, Chojja infesting CCs, and probably ALOT more Im forgetting. | ||

There's a difference between securing the game and toying with the opponent. =p The game with oov and Goodfriend is the Gillette Starleague. Btw, there have been cases where progamers other than oov have toyed with the opponent also (not just securing the win). | ||

I laughed at the point where Pop commented if the game was 99% lost, why didnt GF leave? Instantbunz I'm afraid I cant agree with you, I've never seen anything that would make oov seem bm. One or two outlier incidents aren't enough to label someone. If anything, the way oov always mentions boxer in his interviews, and the respect he shows him, makes him seem an essentially gm person. | ||

2. Anytime CRUSHED oov in this one. I've never seen oov so deflated after a loss. He was in utter shock afterwards. His main had been razed so completely and overwhelmingly in games 1 and 4 that he didn't even attempt to do a "last stand" like he (and Boxer) usually does. Not that he had any units left, mind you. 3. That 3 shuttle 3 reaver 3 goon drop by Anytime was pure art. Why was oov caught so flat-footed? Why was oov expanding instead of producing defensive units? Was he just playing poorly? No. oov has probably one of the toughest defensive shells to crack in all of SC. Maybe even better than Boxer's. He was playing like iloveoov - he knew it would be a shuttle drop of mixed units backed by reavers (he had scv/wraith scouting done). It's just that he thought he could stop it - just like he stops 99% of such tactics against other players. But, Anytime isn't just another player. Fuck, the guy isn't even mortal. He's the "God of Death", according to the OGN commentators. Still don't believe me? Still think Anytime just got "lucky"? Then how do you explain this comment by Anytime just before the match: Anytime: "If I win any one of the first three games, then I've won the whole match. I won't lose games 4 and 5, if we get to them." "I won't lose games 4 and 5". That's right. The guy knew exactly how he was going to fuck over oov and he'd already determined that his strats for the last two games were virtually without counter. The God of Death indeed. It's going to be an amazing final. But, my money's on Anytime. | ||

It's funny Oov is considered cocky, cause such comments do sound way more arrogant than what Oov has ever said. I mean, either he really believed in it and then it's indeed plain arrogant, or he just said that for show (or to scare Oov or something), and then you can't base your arguments on it. | ||

Head priest of The White Lotus Clan Pai Mei Was walking down the road Contemplating whatever a man with Pai Mei's infinite power would contemplate Which is another way of saying, who knows. When, a Shaolin monk appeared on the road traveling in the opposite direction. As the monk and the priest crossed paths... Pai Mei in a practically unfathomable display of generosity Gave the monk the slightest of nods. The nod, was not returned. Now was it the intention of the Shaolin monk to insult Pai Mei ? Or, did he just fail to see the generous social gesture? The motives of the monk, remain unknown. What is known, were the consequences. The next morning Pai Mei appeared at the Shaolin Temple, And demanded that the temple's head Abbot offer Pai Mei his neck to repay the insult. The Abbot, at first, tried to console Pai Mei, only to find, Pai Mei was inconsolable. So began, the massacre of the Shaolin Temple, And all sixty of the monks inside, At the fists of the White Lotus. And so began, the legend of Pai Mei's Five-Point Palm Exploding Heart Technique. Uma Thurman : And what praytell Is a five-point palm Exploding heart technique? | ||

He would have been in a far better position had he built 4 Gols instead of a 3rd CC. Also he had 1 shuttle with 4 Gols @ Anytime's mineral only, where he killed a pylon, which he had to fly back (too late obviously). | ||

Still, I'm also more inclined to believe that Anytime's statements about his tactics for games 4 and 5 were more a mandatory statement of confidence than anything else. IIRC oov did not scout Anytime's main at all with that wraith of his, and never made any attempts at a shuttle-hunt either, which I couldn't understand at that time like... at all, but then again he's oov... Not sure how things might or might not fare vs BoxeR now, but I recon the kind of experience and natural-born cheesiness that the Emperor is in possession of *will* provide Anytime a reason or two to spend some serious thinking on. Anyways seems like one interesting final to come - all for our common benefit, too! -Mynock | ||

Anyway there's also another similarity between Julys Gillette win as well as beating oov in semi, and the general aggressive style of play. They also played Xellos in the quarters! "God of Fighters", and "God of Death" isnt too far away from each other as well Go Anytime! | ||

Hmm, I don't recall ever saying anything to the effect "oov knew it would be a 3 reav 3 goon drop but still thought he could stop it". I said oov knew it would be a mixed unit shuttle drop backed by reavers. oov had scouted with both his SCV and his wraith (the scv saw the shuttle drop build, the wraith scouted the expos at 8 and 6 to confirm that Anytime wasn't going expansion). oov just never anticipated the ferocity of the drop. Why else would he be expanding at a time when he knew a) a drop was coming and b) that Anytime wasn't expanding himself? He thought he could stop "it" - but again I never said that oov knew that "it" would be 3 goon 3 reaver. Btw, this is also, in substance, the same analysis provided by the OGN commentators during the game - that oov knew a shuttle drop of mixed units backed by reaver(s) was coming, but he decided to expand because of his supreme confidence that he could stop whatever Anytime could throw at him at that stage of the game. My only point is that Anytime played fantastic. And people need to give oov some more credit, instead of trying to belittle his opponent. oov probably didn't play at his peak. But guys, please, oov is said to have practiced like crazy for this match. And why shouldn't he? It's the OGN semis afterall. The comments about how oov could have should have would have suggest two things which simply aren't true: a) that oov played badly because he was either nervous or unprepared, and b) Anytime was lucky to have won. This is absurd. It's the OGN semis. OOV practiced 10+ hours a day for the past week straight. It's ILOVEOOV. OOV's a seasoned champion who's gone toe to toe with the very best at the highest levels and won many times over - so nervousness couldn't have been a significant factor. So, what's the conclusion? I think Anytime simply came better prepared and took better advantage with better timing of the strategic nuances of the maps they were playing on. If oov played "poorly" it's only because, in hindsight, he could have should have would have done something else. But, tell me a game in which that isn't true? And if any of you speak the Korean language and know how the OGN interviews are set up, you would know that a) Anytime is about the shyest, least cocky guy you'll meet in SC, and b) Anytime's comments with respect to games 4 and 5 were never meant for oov. The timing and the structure of the OGN interview is such that Anytime knew oov wouldn't hear about it until after the match. I'd explain more, but I won't. That's just the way things are. So please no more speculation about who's cocky and who's not and who's trying to psych the other player. There was none of that. The OGN commentator Eum Jae Gyung simply asked him about what he thought about the outcome, and Anytime politely responded. And (I'm responding to PoP here) that's why I can use that comment about games 4 and 5 to back up my "argument". Anytime's game 4 win wasn't a "cheese" nor was it a "fluke" nor was it "oov playing badly". Anytime had come to win and even PoP's own comments support my conclusion: "He thought he could stop 3 reavers and 3 goons with like 6 goliaths? Yeah sure... :/" PoP is wrong about oov thinking that he could stop a 3 goon 3 reaver drop at that stage of the game (as I've commented, oov only knew there would be drop of some kind) - but, as we saw, PoP is absolutely correct that it would be very difficult to stop it. And for the record: I'm a fan of any player who entertains me. If I seem to be on the protoss bandwagon (and I am) it's only because toss players are a bit more entertaining to watch. Why that is, I don't know for sure, but perhaps the fact that, at the very highest levels of play, protoss is at a disadvantage, forces toss players to be slightly more creative than the average zerg or terran user. Anyway, if any of you have a problem with that, sue me. | ||

I said oov knew it would be a mixed unit shuttle drop backed by reavers. oov had scouted with both his SCV and his wraith (the scv saw the shuttle drop build, the wraith scouted the expos at 8 and 6 to confirm that Anytime wasn't going expansion). oov just never anticipated the ferocity of the drop. Why else would he be expanding at a time when he knew a) a drop was coming and b) that Anytime wasn't expanding himself? He thought he could stop "it" - but again I never said that oov knew that "it" would be 3 goon 3 reaver. Indeed, but then again, with all his experience and probable practice on this map, shouldn't he know approximately how much Anytime could have produced in that amount of time? Considering it was *ages* after the usual fast reaver timing and he hadn't got any expo's yet, couldn't Oov somewhat guess Anytime was attempting some do-or-die drop strat? Fact is, Anytime couldn't be preparing anything else. Yet, Oov reacted by: - expanding once more ; - dropping 4 goliaths miles away from his base although he still had pretty much nothing to defend. It's just amazingly retarded. Oov wasn't himself or just didn't think. Btw, this is also, in substance, the same analysis provided by the OGN commentators during the game - that oov knew a shuttle drop of mixed units backed by reaver(s) was coming, but he decided to expand because of his supreme confidence that he could stop whatever Anytime could throw at him at that stage of the game. Maybe. Either way, it was an awful decision. Actually I have no idea whether Oov was expecting it or not, I'm only judging the decision in itself. My only point is that Anytime played fantastic. If you're talking about that specific game, then I strongly disagree. He just did his planned build (which he learned from the coach of POS if I recall his interview) and won, without facing any resistance. That's not what I call playing fantastic: his plan simply worked out. It's not even like he needed to micro his reavers/goons after the drop. If you're talking about the whole series, I "kinda" agree. I think he played flawlessly, but "fantastic" isn't the word I would use. If you look at the series, Anytime really never had to adapt to anything. He simply went for his planned strategies (dt's in game 1, 2 gate goons to power/macro to carriers in game 2, zealot rush in game 3 and timing drop in game 4) and succeeded 3 times out of 4. When it worked, he won ; when it failed, he lost. Yes, the only time his strat failed, and the only time he actually had to improvise, he did lose. I mean, his timing, execution and micro were perfect, no doubt. But maybe if Oov could avoid a few avoidable mistakes and resist as he did in game 3, he would have been outplayed later. Who knows? See, we have only seen one "facet" of Anytime's skills: his ability to think of deadly early strats and use them in the most effective way possible. But we haven't seen how good he was at adapting. We haven't seen how good he was at playing straight-up (except in game 2, but just barely thanks to Oov's gay opening and bad scouting). We haven't seen how good he was when faced with difficult situations. In short, we haven't seen much. Not Anytime's fault, though. And people need to give oov some more credit, instead of trying to belittle his opponent. oov probably didn't play at his peak. But guys, please, oov is said to have practiced like crazy for this match. And why shouldn't he? It's the OGN semis afterall. From his (and Boxer's) proleague interview he started practicing seriously two days before the game (wednesday), because proleague is T1's top priority and he can't do anything about it. I don't doubt he trained hard during those two days, but it would surprise me a lot if Anytime didn't spend a few more days on it. Actually, it doesn't matter much. My point is only that Oov definitely wasn't in his best shape at all. The comments about how oov could have should have would have suggest two things which simply aren't true: a) that oov played badly because he was either nervous or unprepared, and b) Anytime was lucky to have won. This is absurd. It's the OGN semis. OOV practiced 10+ hours a day for the past week straight. It's ILOVEOOV. Well, nobody knows *why* he played badly, but he did. The why doesn't matter much, once again. Then again, he was probably less prepared than Anytime unless he and Boxer lied about the proleague priority thing. OOV's a seasoned champion who's gone toe to toe with the very best at the highest levels and won many times over - so nervousness couldn't have been a significant factor. So, what's the conclusion? I think Anytime simply came better prepared and took better advantage with better timing of the strategic nuances of the maps they were playing on. If oov played "poorly" it's only because, in hindsight, he could have should have would have done something else. But, tell me a game in which that isn't true? It's not just about "not making the best decisions". It's about making several crappy choices and screwing up scouting in an OSL semis. Not too common afaik. And if any of you speak the Korean language and know how the OGN interviews are set up, you would know that a) Anytime is about the shyest, least cocky guy you'll meet in SC, and b) Anytime's comments with respect to games 4 and 5 were never meant for oov. Actually I always thought of Anytime as a shy and humble guy. The timing and the structure of the OGN interview is such that Anytime knew oov wouldn't hear about it until after the match. I'd explain more, but I won't. That's just the way things are. So please no more speculation about who's cocky and who's not and who's trying to psych the other player. There was none of that. The OGN commentator Eum Jae Gyung simply asked him about what he thought about the outcome, and Anytime politely responded. Being 100% sure you will win a game, when you're such an underdog playing the best player in the world in the opposing matchup, is plain cockyness to me. Well, I guess it's entirerly subjective. And (I'm responding to PoP here) that's why I can use that comment about games 4 and 5 to back up my "argument". Anytime's game 4 win wasn't a "cheese" nor was it a "fluke" nor was it "oov playing badly". Anytime had come to win and even PoP's own comments support my conclusion: "He thought he could stop 3 reavers and 3 goons with like 6 goliaths?

Speak for yourself. You must've missed Anytime owning the Challenge, finishing first overall, getting seeded, then proceeding to do well in Starleague. Anytime's record so far in OGN play is pretty amazing. In fact, he currently holds the highest win % of any active player. Now, this will most likely change over the coming months as he plays more games and his opponents are better equipped to deal with his strats and style. We may not have seen everything (I doubt anyone is saying Anytime is at the same level as oov as a player - only that there is some potential). But, "we haven't seen much" seems a bit extreme. The statement "his plan simply worked out" doesn't make sense to me. SC is a game that demands planning, practice and execution - as well as the ability to adapt (as you've already mentioned). All these things (and a few more qualities) must come together for a player to be successful. By your analysis, Garimto isn't a very good player either. Afterall, all he seems to be known for is coming up with ingenious strats against specific opponents and on specific maps and executing his plan to perfection so that the opponent gets taken off of his own plan. What a patsy. I suppose Mynock is correct: relatively "new" players like Anytime will have to prove themselves over time before they get any respect, regardless of tournament results. Pop's attitude speaks to this phenomenon, although I also suspect it probably has something to do with Pop being a fan of oov than being an Anytime hater. Nothing wrong with that, just an observation, the way Pop's been so keen to dissect every paragraph I've written about the subject and the way he's been making excuses for oov. Team League taking precedence over the OGN semis for oov? Boxer and oov may have said that, but how credible is that statement? It's the Silent_Control phenomenon. And maybe the IPXZerg phenomenon, as well. One more thing: I reviewed the whole series again and I will admit that oov truly played "poorly" in game 2. Why? Because he let his emotions take over and opened with a proxy fac that probably wasn't a part of his original game plan and, accordingly, should never have been attempted. He probably did it because of the way he got owned by a proxy gate in game 1. He thought he had been shown up. Time to return the favor. I admire the call. It was gutsy and bold. But, it didn't work. I am dropping this topic. A few people are taking this a bit too seriously and it's not enjoyable listening to people whine about a bad result in a sporting match. Bye now. | ||

Anytime has proven himself by winning challenge league and getting out of a relatively hard group. Oov, Yellow GGPlay are feared opponents though both GGplay and Yellow are known for their strength vs Terran instead of Protoss. In addition he DID beat Xellos who seems very inform lately(at least TvP). Therefore I think he\'s deserved to reach the final, and he did in a very flashy way doing alot unexpected stuff. Sure Oov might be the better player in a straight up game, but Anytime needs to focus on his own strength and his opponents weaknessses. Its not a secret Oovs strongest point of his game is macro game, thus Anytime wanted to avoid that - going the strategies he went. I think it\'s pretty well known that aggression early on pays off against oov before he can get big - which July proved over a year ago. I think Anytime WAS very well prepared, but its not secret there were some \"lucky\" moments. Oovs fac being scouted and his dropships running into goons(though Anytime had already won), and I think there are some other I forget. I want to point out Oov DID some retarded DECISIONS especially the last game, but it wasnt bad played in terms of micro/macro. It was purely his decicions all the games. Im a fan of both players, but I DO think people wanted a macrowar because Anytime DOES have great macro as well, but he decided his chances were better in a non-macrowar vs an opponent with such strong macro and thus didnt \"risk\" it in terms of letting the game be a macrofest. I dont blame him though because frankly the maps ARE difficult PvT, hell even Forte can be fucking hard PvT close spots unless you get such a start Anytime got. Finally I think Anytime will play different in the final. He should not challenge Boxer with strategies like this because Boxer is so good playing vs them, and generally defending. He should shift gear and try turning the serie into a macrogames, which I think he\'ll do as well. Which is good because then Boxer can once and for all prove his macro has become much better lately. | ||

The reason people has been calling Boxer's TvP weak is not because he cannot win TvP games, it's because his raw mechanical power macro/micro on slightly protoss favoring maps in long grinds seem inadequate. Looks like he has worked on his macro a lot in the last year I must say. These maps seem to suit Boxer just fine. Lots of creative options in contrast to a map like Luna. Also, I think he has an edge here, albeit slight, since Anytime has tipped much more of his hand than Boxer have in this Starleague. But if Forte or ROV gets doubled, I feel I must place my liquibet points on anytime. Protoss fighting. | ||

Anytime's record so far in OGN play is pretty amazing. In fact, he currently holds the highest win % of any active player. Sorry but Challenge League Terrans aren't Oov. The only time Anytime actually showed what I'm talking about (lately) is against Xellos. The OSL quarters, that is (the group stage game vs Oov also but he was already qualified for quarters so let's forget it). What happened in that series vs Xellos? Game 1, Xellos ran through his own mines to give the win to Anytime (props to him to exploit that properly but that's a mistake Xellos shouldn't have made). Game 2, straight up macro play. Anytime plays superbly but loses. Game 3, Anytime has a build and a plan, it works out perfectly, just like in the semis' games. We still haven't seen much of what he can do against a top (and I mean real top, not Iris or whoever he met during the CL) terran. I don't know if "luck" isn't the right word, but I'd say he was lucky at least for the 815 part (quarters included). Go fast main base to 2 base carriers? Fine, your opponent won't go goliaths at all (although every T does it and it works), won't notice the carriers until too late and then will die. Go fast timing drop? No problem, your opponent will send some goliaths away and spend all his minerals on CC while you can drop a nearly empty base. I don't have any other word than "luck" for that, and that is disregarding his great skills in actually using the strats. Now, this will most likely change over the coming months as he plays more games and his opponents are better equipped to deal with his strats and style. We may not have seen everything (I doubt anyone is saying Anytime is at the same level as oov as a player - only that there is some potential). But, "we haven't seen much" seems a bit extreme. The statement "his plan simply worked out" doesn't make sense to me. SC is a game that demands planning, practice and execution - as well as the ability to adapt (as you've already mentioned). All these things (and a few more qualities) must come together for a player to be successful. Then tell me how and when he had to adapt to anything Oov was doing in any of the semifinals game (except the 3rd)? He didn't, not because he was not able to, but because he didn't *need* to. It was a clear one-sided rape. By your analysis, Garimto isn't a very good player either. Afterall, all he seems to be known for is coming up with ingenious strats against specific opponents and on specific maps and executing his plan to perfection so that the opponent gets taken off of his own plan. What a patsy. If he couldn't win if his planned ingenious strats failed, then yes, I wouldn't consider him as a very good player. But we all know Garimto was also extremely good at adapting, killing pushes (by the way, did Anytime have to show any skills in killing pushes in those semis?), playing straight-up macro, and everything you can imagine. Maybe it's Anytime's case also. We may see all of this (and I hope so) in the finals, but so far, we haven't. I suppose Mynock is correct: relatively "new" players like Anytime will have to prove themselves over time before they get any respect, regardless of tournament results. Pop's attitude speaks to this phenomenon, although I also suspect it probably has something to do with Pop being a fan of oov than being an Anytime hater. I'm not a fan of Oov but I like the player a lot. And I absolutely love Anytime's balls and determination. This has nothing to do with not showing respect to him. You think the semis were fantastic, I don't. You think Oov wasn't playing poorly, I do. That's all there is about it. : ) Nothing wrong with that, just an observation, the way Pop's been so keen to dissect every paragraph I've written about the subject and the way he's been making excuses for oov. Team League taking precedence over the OGN semis for oov? Boxer and oov may have said that, but how credible is that statement? First, my "dissecting" of paragraphs is just the way I'm used to respond to long posts (usenet habits). I'm always trying to cut between the points made and not inside. This being said, I'm not making excuses for Oov. I'm just stating what they said, because I don't see what their goal could be for lying about that. It's not only been said in recent interviews but in pretty much all of SKT1's players' since the beginning of the proleague. Then again, maybe it's the case for the Plus team as well, or maybe it's total bullshit. Wouldn't see the point of lying though. I am dropping this topic. A few people are taking this a bit too seriously and it's not enjoyable listening to people whine about a bad result in a sporting match. Bye now. Taking it too seriously? Whining?... Can't you accept others' opinions? :/ I think it's a nice, enjoyable discussion. | ||

Anytime won because of perfect timing and great strategies, especially designed to kick oovs ass. never seen someone preparing himself like Anytime did. He knew oovs macro is awesome and tried to distract him and kick him very early. Anytime said he wanted to win one of the first three games, so he knew that his cheese might not work at all. still, he followed his plan, executed it flawlessly and oov couldn't do anything else then defend himself over and over again. Maybe also oov thought that his win in game 3 might have stopped Anytime from attacking that early and tells him to play safer after he is still 2:1 in lead... maybe he thought that Anytime might get under pressure when losing a game on TV after it almost worked out... who knows. Anyway, still i look forward to the Final. It's going to be awesome, and i really hoped to see a TvP in the final. Maybe Anytime already made an Anti-Boxer strategy... Protoss fighting! but Boxer winning | ||

The aggressive all in strats we've been seeing seem to be the result of protoss players being fed up with fighting on terran terms. I've never seen so much DT play as right now, or perhaps I've been out of the loop too long. It was refreshing to see rainbow play against goodfriend. Mighty unorthodox. Future of BW still looks interesting, and there still seem to be room for improvement and creativity. | ||

And If the situation had been the opposite I wouldn't have said the exakt same thing but with the other players. It was just a feeling that I felt during the groupstage of this OSL. When Stork were up to YellOw I know he would lose beacuse he wasn't good enough to beat YellOw pvz. But when Anytime would meet YellOw It was no doubt for me that Anytime would own him. It's like two different feelings from judging two different players. Sometimes You'll just have a feeling for a player with that little extra in his style. I expect to get flamed for this post so goodnight all. | ||
