First let me say that, so far this has been one of the most exciting and def most surprising Professional Starcraft finals I've watched. The OSL Finals pits top Protoss player BesT up against one of the best Zerg players in the world July Zerg, and guess what month it is...

If July wins he will be only the 2nd progamer to win 3 OSL titles. An honor that earns the player the coveted $8000 Golden mouse.

This is my Blog response to Slapnuts post. I started to write a comment, however it got a lot more in depth and thus I felt it needed its own Blog post.

Slap and I are on opposite ends of the spectrum when it comes to this subject and I feel there is a similar divide among GameRiot readers and another group that doesn’t care either way.

So now this is more of an analysis of what eSports is, what it means and where it will be in the future.

What is eSports

It's been over a year now since the announcement of Starcraft II last May, so how have things changed and why will it be better?

Last year I predicted an early fall release for Starcraft 2, but that is no longer the case. Even with retailers touting a Dec 3rd date we should be expecting a more realistic early 2009 release.

Forgot what a certain patch fixed in Starcraft? Or just plain curious?


Below is a listing of all the original Starcraft/Broodwar patches that have been released throughout the years...


1 Patch 1.15 1.1 Patch 1.15.21.2 Patch 1.15.11.3 Patch 1.15
2 Patch 1.14
3 Patch 1.13 3.1 Patch 1.13f3.2 Patch 1.13e3.3 Patch 1.13d3.4 Patch 1.13c3.5 Patch 1.13b3.6 Patch 1.134 Patch 1.12 4.1 Patch 1.12b4.2 Patch 1.125 Patch Patch 1.11 5.1 Patch Patch 1.11b5.2 Patch 1.116 Patch 1.107 Patch 1.09 7.1 Patch 1.09b7.2 Pat…  More

The Arena MSL 2008 finals recently came to a close where we saw ForGG demolish his own Lecaf Oz teammate Jaedong 3-0 without even thinking twice about it.

The event itself was held at the Setec building where there is a big playground for kids and there was also a kids event inside the building that kicked off before the actual Starcraft event started.

SCForAll was there recording the whole event and taking some really g…  More
