See how all the previous Ever OSL winners were not the favourites to win. Boxer was expected to beat Oov (and win golden mouse), not too sure about July but I'm guessing noone saw his muta micro coming, Jaedong was an underdog against Stork and Best was expected to go macro mode on July and crush him. Pattern?

The only reason Movie might win is bcoz of the slight imba all terrans have to deal with when TvPing.

TvP is not Flash's worst MU for no reason.


That is a poor excuse, considering Flash once dominated in TvP and also beat a really good PvT player to achieve his first StarLeague title. It is more likely that his TvP is not as good as before simply beacuse he has been more focusing on TvZ/TvT.

It is more likely, but not true. Flash has been working to revamp his TvP play for months. Excuses like that, that players are simply focusing on the other matchups, to explain away their weakest one never works.



The "imbalance" excuse works even less, primarily since preety much all TvP balance arguments do not apply at such high levels of gaming. A D level Terran can make the excuse that TvP is hard....Flash does not have the same luxury, especially considering his stellar TvP track record in the past.

At least the "primarily focused on TvZ/TvT" argument is supported by the fact that last year was overall not very good for Protoss and that Zerg have mostly been dominating the scene. So it is not a stretch of imagination to think that TvZ was a much bigger priority then TvP.

I don't like the balance argument either. I said explicitly in my previous post that I consider what you said more plausible (that he was focused on the other matchups). However, I highly doubt that's true either.

I buy the (commercially-driven) hype. The past EVER OSL's WERE amazing - and we have a good matchup for the coming finals - Flash vs Movie - the first that I've been excited to see in awhile.

I hope the games pay off, and Movie doesn't simply get dismantled by Flash.

Omg looking at the epic winners of EVER OSLs Flash is destined to win it.

Poor Movie.


And why wouldn`t a victory by Movie be epic? On the contrary, it would be made all the more epic by the fact that it would be a victory over an opponent that is currently considered practically unbeatable. It would be akin to (P)GARIMTO`s victory over (T)BoxeR in the SKY OSL, when Boxer had just won two consecutive StarLeagues and looked unstoppable (although, to be fair, GARIMTO had won a StarLeague himself and was the best man for the job at the time). Also, it would fit with the theme of this OSL, since this StarLeague was filled with upsets.

Movie finds himself in a similar situation Jaedong did in the EVER 2007 finals, facing an established opponent at the top of his form in his weakest matchup. While he is a good player, he will have to do the same thing to his PvT that Jaedong did to his ZvP....learn it right in front of our eyes.

Overall, I will be rooting for Movie. Not just beacuse he is a prospective player, the underdog in this final and a Protoss, but also beacuse it would be priceless to see the reaction of StarCraft fans if he toppled all the expectations of a Flash victory.


Yup TvP is Flash's 'weakest' matchup despite dominating BeST who has one of the best PvT in BW and recently defeating Stork who also excels in PvT.

Lets not forget Flash's TvP was considered the best in SC, his Bacchus 2008 OSL run in 2008 is proof of that. Lets face it, Flash doesn't have a weakness against any three races. Also the 2007 EVER OSL is a bad comparison because Stork was known to have terrible PvZ at that time.

Pretty sure everyone knows what you just said. But if you really had to pick one out to call it his weakest matchup, it'll be his TvP, both statistically and in actuality when you compare his TvP games to his games involving other match ups.

Flash's TvZ was his weakest statistically until this season when he's been playing zergs nonstop. TvZ imo was always Flash's weakest MU and sometimes his TvT doesn't look unstoppable either.

BeSt was one of the best PvT. Now he is still in long slump and appearance in MSL Ro8 is fluke.
Stork played in a relaxed manner and was pushed by Flash using map imba (Tornado cliff). That wasn't skill game. Also Flash is training like crazy for 2 SLs and Stork is relaxing playing only on proleague.

....Did you read what you just quoted? I said that Movie is facing a tough opponent in his (Movie`s) worst matchup. The comparison comes from the fact that Jaedong`s ZvP was not very good prior to the EVER 2007 finals (it was his worst matchup at the time), since he lost to the likes of (P)Rock.

That is why I said Movie will have to do with his PvT what Jaedong did with his ZvP in order to win....learn it right in front of our eyes.

EDIT: Basically, I was talking about Movie, not Flash.

I think its less of that its Flash's lesser match up, but more that its his opponents better match up.
