Earlier today the finals in the prestigious tournament called International StarCraft League - ISL for short - took place. From the last round three players were left who were to face eachother in a best of three group play. The three players left were
Gold, FirstLove and SaYoNaRa[Name].
The Russian FirstLove is more known as Androide, SEC attendant and one of the best players coming from Russia. SaYoNaRa[Name] is a well-known Korean player, currently ranked #55 at PGTour. The first-mentioned player went under the name Gold, who later proved to be a smurf. In the newspost about ISL the crew reveals that it was none other than Peter "Legionnaire" Neate behind it.
Every player faced eachother, and Legionnaire proved to be the best player of the three, taking down both Androide and SaYoNaRa with 2-1. Androide also lost against SaYoNaRa, which places him at the third place and SaYoNaRa runner-up.
Legionnaire > Androide 2-1
SaYoNaRa[Name] > Androide 2-1
Legionnaire > SaYoNaRa[Name] 2-1
The first season of International StarCraft League is now over, and even if it looked like it was to be full of Koreans and no European/American idols for people to cheer on, the Top 3 actually included two non-koreans. Legionnaire got himself 300$ USD for this win, SaYoNaRa 150$ USD and Androide 100$ USD. Congratulations to all three players!

When looking through the ISL players you could see two non-koreans, the Russian Androide and the Polish player Dunaj. However, one of the players under a Korean flag was not really a Korean - he just lives there. The player under the AKA Gold was none other than the Australian Protoss player Legionnaire!
