This one.
+ Show Spoiler +
Yes, this Starleague will be sponsored by an energy drink.
So while you all sit there and make your CJ faces, like I did for a good 10 minutes, let me go over the basic information you all already know.
OSL Group Selection: Jan 11th, 2008 (6:30PM)
Terran(4)=FrOzean, Flash, XellOs, Sea
Zerg(6)=Jaedong, July, Rumble, Luxury, YellOw[ArnC], sAviOr
Protoss(6)=Stork, Bisu, Much, BackHo, BeSt, Rock
Maps: There's some good news in this area. Due to MASSIVE balance issues, Persona is thrown out the window, along with fantasy II which also brought some positional balance issues (like that's a big surprise). Currently the only announced maps are Blue Storm and Katrina. The 2 other maps will be brand new maps from OGN. Let's pray we don't see permanent psionic storms or something.
Points to watch for:
- Only 4 terrans, least amount of terrans to ever qualify.
- 3 protoss seeds, most for the resurrected race in history.
- XellOs's comeback to the main stage
- July's goldenmouse attempt
- Savior's slump, ending?
- Stork, the YellOw of Protoss?
- Luxury and YellOw[ArnC], the first ever star-leaguer, dual-leaguer twins/brothers.
For a better understanding of why this sponsor is such a joke, here's HonestTea's description of the drink's "reputation" in the Korean community.

Let me explain:
To call Baccus an "energy drink" is to call Taco Bell "food." As in, it's a low-grade product that gets the job done.
Baccus is Red Bull on crack. That little bottle is like 45% caffeine, 45% taurine and 10% sugar. It's what college kids drink before all-nighters, and what over-worked salary men drink before another night of staying at the office until dawn.
Baccus is a mystical potion that grants extraordinary abilites at the cost of wierd side effects.
Basically, it turns you into a beserker for 60 minutes, afterwards you become a zombie for 120 minutes.
So no, it's not exactly a positive association.
