I think it is finally setting in on me. Here is the end, but as sad as it is Brood War brought so many great memories. It, along with the players and communities are what made this game and Esports. This quote explains it much better than I ever could.
“There is no real ending. It’s just the place where you stop the story.” ― Frank Herbert
During the commentators' speeches, there was a cover for Let It Be on in the background. Anyone know who it was singing? |

Keep in mind that previous finals had all the upper seats empty. This was last BW game, so ofc that a lot of ppl came... |

| While I'm definitely sad to see it go, I'm glad it was around for as long as it was. If someone had told me 10+ years ago that I'd still be able to watch SC:BW(much less be in Korea to be there for the end), I would've called them crazy. Been a great ride, and I'll continue to hopelessly fanboy over my favorite players as they try to build on their successes in this new game. |

There were translations in nanashin's IRC during the speech.
I don't remember what was said, but I could just feel the emotion in his speech again just watching it, especially when Kim Carrier was choking up.
Sorry about that  Last edit: 2012-08-06 13:25:44 |

| Thanks for this. This is so emotional, even though it was my first OSL. Anyone know where I can find HD pictures of Kim Carrier from this event? I think I'm in love with him... |

Kim Carrier didn't say a whole lot, but the emotion in his voice pretty much conveyed everything that needed to be said.
"For 13 years, you've shown your love for starleague and for us... thank you." *chokes up*
*crowd cheers*
"We will keep applying this passion to our future starleague endeavors. Please continue to show us your love and support."

Too emotional. Im going to look up Kim Carrier and the other commentators and give them all a big hug. Thats how i feel right now; you can only imagine how emotional this must be for them when im sitting at home, watching the games on VODS and still tearing up. |

| I didn't realise that the main commentator (don't know his name) was 40 years old... just amazing really. Were these commentators with OGN since the beginning? |

I guess that’s it. I can’t believe the most entertaining, most exciting and most passionate description of any sport I have ever cared about is over. It just seems so wrong and so depressing.
The funny pictures thread and K-pop discussion will bring me occasionally back to this website but that’s pretty much it. I used to watch a bit of kartrider and Sudden Attack when I had nothing better to do but no other E-sport remotely compares to what we have just lost.
Thanks for sharing. |
