But they weren't counting on Leenock. When StarCraft II's worker units are under threat, most players draw a box over them and click away in panic. They then form a line, scooting along in neat little rows that ensure that any splash attack that would kill one, kills them all. The best players are able to attempt rudimentary 'splits', sending a handful of workers in one direction and a handful in the other, halving casualties.

Against DRG's banelings, Leenock was able to, in the space of a few seconds, isolate every single one of his workers in its own separate corner of the base. DRG's banelings snuffled sadly around a few of them in turn, looking to exploit those few standing too close to their peers. Eventually, their explosive welcome defused, they popped together, taking down exactly two of Leenock's previous drones. That game went to DRG, the constant pressure finally unseating Leenock, but the damage had been done.

In the corner of the stream, DRG was clearly shaken, running his hands through his hair and rocking back and forth. Leenock, on the other side of the screen, had an air of calm utterly at odds with his age.

The final game of the best of seven series went to Leenock, in control from the start. Thirty four games in, that left Leenock one player to face. Clawing his way from the losers' bracket, he'd been drawn against NaNiWa. He eviscerated MVP and Nestea early on, his Protoss builds timed out to the millisecond to extract as much advantage from the game's maps as possible, while simultaneously punishing any minor misstep from his opponents with a stalker slap to the face.

But having spent time in South Korea - living in the MVP no relation to the player team house for a few months — reignited his abilities. To beat Leenock, NaNiWa would have to win a single best of three. Should he fail, the series would become a best of seven, making either player notch up four victories before taking home the oversized cheque. NaNiWa started strong. Leenock composed a quick attack from the shaky economic foundations one Zerg base offered on the map Shakuras Plateau.

His roach advance spotted by Protoss zealots, Leenock dallied too long in the middle of the map, letting NaNiWa finish construction of a set of photon cannon defences. The subsequent Leenock aggression was repelled with ease, and the Korean conceded the loss.

One more game, and the championship would be NaNiWa's. But Leenock wouldn't give up without an honest scrap. The series' second game was a tumultuous back and forth experience, both sides trading armies in the middle of the map. At times, Leenock extended himself too far, leaving his soft organic bases open to hard, robotic pokes from a mixed Protoss force. But just as NaNiWa seemed to have the win sewn up, Leenock was able to surround him, his Zerg forces swollen so large they left none alive.

NaNiWa had been relying on his giant colossi to pin Leenock back in his base; as his opponent's forces waddled across the map, Leenock had built a gang of flying corrupters, their aerial position leaving them free to whack away at the colossi untouched. His army's heart excised, NaNiWa was forced to concede.

At one apiece, Leenock went for a daring early spawning pool. His early force of zerglings was rebuffed, but his choice didn't cripple him economically. The result was a wary NaNiWa, leaving Leenock free to expand his economy and gain the edge — and the win. The series expanded into a best of seven, Leenock began playing mind games with his elder opponent.

After scouting his foe's base, NaNiWa began preparations for a lengthy economic game. Little did he know, as soon as Leenock had ushered him to the door, he'd cancelled his expansion base and began massing troops. Their arrival at NaNiWa's own base was preceded with little warning, and despite a valiant effort, the Swede was quickly overwhelmed in roach bile. And then there was one. Leenock had to win a single game to take the match, and the Providence MLG title. Epik Gamer.
