I could see NaDa winning ONE more OSL, but not two. | ||

If anyone can win the diamond mouse it would be Jaedong  . I'm trying to not get ahead of myself here but a well rested, hungry,JD (Who's only in one league) is his best matchup away from the golden mouse. And it doesn't look like JD is gonna slow down any time soon. I mean, Nada was what, 22 when he won his golden mouse? JD is only 19 he's almost got his and he's still in the prime of his powers. Potentially he can have his Platinum mouse by the end of the year :D. | ||

I don't usually jump to defend players' skills, since the debate often ends in stupidity, but I think it's terribly base to say that Jaedong is on the same skill level as other zergs ... no one is currently on par with Jaedong. Certainly, he may blow out after this OSL and achieve nothing at all, but at this moment Jaedong is godlike (67% winrate, as opposed to Effort with 63% and Calm with 56%). | ||

Certainly, he may blow out after this OSL and achieve nothing at all, but at this moment Jaedong is godlike (67% winrate, as opposed to Effort with 63% and Calm with 56%). He didn't really say that. He was merely pointing out that "well rested" doesn't really coincide with what Jaedong does. Jaedong practices at intense amounts, much more than others. That's why he IS above everyone else. If he doesn't practice and just rests, then he'll fall back on par with many other zergs. Maybe an overstatement, but he wasn't saying what you are saying. | ||

everyones expecting LJD to win this, in his best matchup, getting needed rest, and gaining confidence from beating fantasy showing there was no slump. Although in Yarnc defense, he has map adv over Jaedong, and lots of practice as well. Golden Mouse for JD though | ||
