Now shall the events set into motion so long ago be made complete. For the Protoss, too, were created by the Xel'Naga. They were the first creation, gifted with a purity of form. And we were the second creation, blessed with a purity of essence. Indeed, our two species are but opposite facets of a greater whole. Soon shall our two races be made as one. Thenceforth shall all feel the wrath of the eternal Swarm... For the hour of judgement is come!
The wrath of the swarm knows no bounds when in the hands of Luxury. With his brilliant mind and artistic playstyle he has collected the scalps of many of the protoss and terran kin. The hour of judgment is here.
The final test for this master is to defeat the inferior being known as Best and with all the tricks of the swarm at his disposal; victory is certain.
With tricks such as the Zerg rush at his disposal, how can he lose?
Luxury hwaiting!

i REALLY hope we see a july//lux zvz epic final
|
isnt the only thing that BeSt is good at PvP? I doubt the has any chance agains Lux, with that shape he's showing atm.
Holy shit just watch his latest winning streaks, man this guy has just teared up everything recently. I guess this guy must be as good as everyone says. But I still think Lux will take it. He got more experience.

as lovely as his ZvT is his ZvP has never been quite up to par
I still have horrible memories of those games against stork last OSL, christ those were painful to watch
|
its ZvP lol i wonder whos gonna win
|
The more I read about, hear about, or see him my fond for Lux grows. He looks to be on the way to being the next zerg bonjwa.
Ye a zvz final would indeed be epic. I can't remember the last zvz final anyone help me out here? I'm bad with history ; /
|
Do it for the swarm Luxury! We've had enough of the protos 'manliness' just too many 'manly' protos players being the 'real men'. Fuck this gogo ZvZ final.
Although I actually like Best for his thumbs down against go.go

I still cringe when he plays ZvP. Last Starleague vs Stork was horrid showing by Lux. Awful play vs a not so great PvZ player.
|
Go Luxury! I like Best but Lux has been in the scene for a while with not to much to show for it so I hope he wins ^^
|
Luxury, you must win! The hilarity that would ensue from a Backho vs Luxury final would be so wonderful, and you deserve a title!
|
Even tough Im a fan of toss. Lux is my favorite Zerg since a while.
Go Lux !!
|
Luxury's been showing us both great creativity and strong straight-up games. I love his attitude too. Park "Practice" Chan-Soo fighting!
|
If you had to pick non-champion players, in the semis... Best and Lux is about as good as it gets. Luxury ... so good~~ I love his play.
All I ask is for ggs. Just, GGs, please.

Its hard out there for a Zerg player thesed days. Lux, Jaedong and July are the only hope for Zerg now. Go Lux, advance to the finals and let this OSL be won by a Zerg for if we don't win here, we might now win in a long time.
Best, this is not your OSL. You do not belong! Luxury has been around for a long time always rising and falling. Now, this is his goldent moment, he earned a spot in the finals. Go home Best, you are a young player and you will have your chance later. This is not your time.

As the writer of that luxury article so "long" ago. I'm proud to see my overall favorite perform this well. After seeing his incredible flair in the games versus flash even I was surprised by his skill. In my opinion lux had thought out every event in that second game including the tank sniping and supply destruction, as flash was predictable enough to let that happen. In the first game his timings were so prefect that unless flash deviated from his normal pattern, there was no chance for him to win, as he realized when he GGed.
One could be more disappointed with Flash than impressed by luxury, but to come up with these strategies against the strongest standard player right now, a player must have an incredible knowledge of the game. As some of you might have noticed (savior vs forGG, mingu vs flash), some players have tried to do similar strategies to luxury's lately, but they haven't been performed with luxury's precision and therefore looked nowhere near as impressive.
However, his games versus stork were horrendous, and he denied us an epic ZvT final instead of the worst finals ever. What I saw in luxury's play back then was that he was uncertain and had for some reason forgot all the cool strategies he normally uses.
Right after the humiliation in bacchus, his proleague performance against P started to pick up and he learnt to counter FE with something other than hydra break (with which he failed miserably against stork). I'm confident that his whole ZvP gives him a lot more confidence and with the maps in his favor, I don't see best winning against this monstrous zerg.
Luxury has since his loss against stork played 6-1 versus P and his sole loss was versus Kal on blue storm (kal's best map, which has also started to swing in a P>Z favor).
As one of the most hardcore luxury fans, I've followed him intensely since I wrote that article, and all evidence points that he's more than ready to make this his first OSL win.

alright... enough puns

note to image posters: check 10 times if its not Yarnc.
Strange thing for me - to see Luxury doing so well, yet still I don't consider him "solid". He popped up around the same time Tester started showing up in individual leagues. The fact that two oldies known from replay sites and considered strong amateurs went pro and on tv gave that warm feeling. He was in the shadow of Yarnc at the time, who had a reputation of a strong rookie. Now its the other twin whos in the light, while yarnc faded away. Coming back to present situation - does anyone else have this feeling that this semifinal result will be like OSC 2007 TheRock vs Jaedong? Don't remember predictions and expectations at the time, but this sense of randomness of what happened there is similar to my feelings about upcoming Luxury's match.

Come on Luxury, you must put those pesky Best fans to rest! Best doesn't have the Luxury to be anything but the Best.
Super Rising Comet Smash!
