I didn't mean the Hwasin of today. I meant the Hwasin that faced down some of the greatest players around the time of savior/bisu and nearly won starleagues.

Light is the invisible backbone of MBC, when everyone instead looks to Sea.

If you had really read my post, you would know I'm not underestimating Kal. He is one of my favorite players, and I really think he has a great chance, greater than any other protoss of today, to take down Jaedong and Flash in succession.

I love Kal but he's going to need a lot of something new to have a chance in this series. I think their game on tornado really tells the whole story; Kal's play was good, maybe not inspired but certainly solid and he just got picked apart. That game wasn't even close, Jd was in complete control all game long, no gimmicks, no surprises just immaculate domination. I'd like to see a new and improved Kal take it to game 5 but I really can't imagine him winning straight up 3-0 JD

Just wondering but did anyone notice that in Jaedong's profile his name is Lee Je Dong even though awhile it was Lee Jae Dong (like its suppose to be?). Did something happen or is my eyes just playing tricks on me...?

There are not correct spellings for Korean names because there are varying conventions by which they are romanized. Li Je Dong would probably be acceptable as well, for example.

EDIT: I don't mean there aren't correct spellings exactly, I mean that there are several correct spellings.

also, @ n.die.jokes: That game you speak of was really perfect play from Jaedong and there are clear, identifiable mistakes from Kal. He doesn't need something special to take games off of JD, he just needs to play very high quality StarCraft.

Oh man, not going to be able to watch all of this, stupid friends house warming party....Maybe I can use his computer to watch while I'm there. Wish I could watch it on my N97. I want Kal to go through, but I'll be rooting for JD most likely.

If Kal wins this and loses in the finals am pissed.
If Jaedong wins this and loses or wins in the finals it's ok.

Kal shall either go all the way or drop out now :/.

Btw: He's kinda to good to have 0 titles... If you think about Luxury and guys like that...

i love the assumption that JD vs flash will be onesided.. i'm really looking forward to it, cause JD always seems to come from nowhere (which is odd considering he's been right at the top for so long) eg... osl vs fantasy, 0-2 to 3-2.. and again against fantasy, losing twice in PL finals, comes back and mauls the guy in a series...

maybe that's just fantasy, but i can see the same thing happening to flash.. (i hope!)

so yeah, JD hwaiting!

Pfft. Everyone should know Kal will win, for the simple reason that God does not want a Flash vs. Jaedong finals. We all do, but seriously, do you not get that GOD is fucking with you? He'll not allow this to happen.
