it was the same as in the game vs light on moon glaive (i think it was before neo moon glaive). this makes me think that effort is an outstanding player. + Show Spoiler + even after watching the OSL semi finals, i didnt get the same feel from calm. his mutalisk micro was amazing, but only in one game did the setting progress into the late game. two games were ended abruptly by flash's timing push. one game calm ended with his mutalisks. the 3rd set developed into late game, where it felt like calm never stood a chance at defeating flash's tank mass. calm made it to the late game, but didnt set himself up to win. consequently, i dont think hes as good as effort. next time flash and effort play, well get a more up to date confirmation or denial of what im saying. and to those saying that effort hasnt made a final.... he JUST won the ***ROOKIE*** award from kespa. the rookie award for gods sake!!! even flash hasnt made a final in ages. getting further in a league doesnt always mean youre a better player. | ||

Wow. Effort loses an ace match to Jangbi and idiots say he's not clutch. Not like he singlehandedly beat Samsung in the PL playoffs last year including an ace match and a super ace match.... Wow. When swarm season ends, the player who stands to gain the MOST is Effort. He's a favorite in ZvT against every player except Flash, and a favorite in ZvP against every player. He hasn't been playing the same ZvP and ZvT styles as most Zergs, and thus stands less to lose when new metagame shifts are made. Effort and Zero for that matter will definitely win at least 1 title they are insanely skilled . | ||

A player loses 2 games out of 12 and he's not clutch? gotta love the morons Stork, Bisu, Jaedong, and Flash lose two games in a row. Multiple threads/blogs slump threads are made. Stork, Bisu, Jaedong, and Flash win an MSL or OSL. Multiple bonjwa threads are made. | ||

Shine's play DOES revolve around lair tech units and muta control but it also relies around the fact that his early/mid game is BETTER than his opponents. That and he has no inherent ZvP advantage to ride out against Flash because well.. Flash plays Terran. I still hold that Shine is a flash pan player. He'll make this OSL final MAYBE and then fall into obscurity. | ||
