the MSL people are just excited that their starleague will actually be good this year. it might have been preplanned anyway, since it was not directed towards anyone in particular.

Super fucking lame.

I mean, everyone wants a JD vs Flash final. That's cool, and MBC is loving it. But advertising the match before the semifinal is over?? That's too much, it's whack. No respect for Kal or his fans, and really, it shows a lack of respect for Jaedong. They should have dealt with the semifinal in one go. Discussed what happened, done the whole song and dance, and hyped up how well JD performed.

Point is, I think it was too quick. Let it wait a little bit. This finals will have plenty of hype without interrupting the semifinal games.


Every major sport does this. Kal had already lost. He knew it, JD knew it, you know it.. EVERYONE KNEW IT.

It wasn't even directed at JD to begin with but please stop blowing this crap out of proportion. I can't count how many times the finals of the World Cup or something is advertised during the QF's....

Do people not remember the changes they made to get to this point? The stupid quirks like Bo5's split into two days, or re-seeding in the middle of the playoff stage? Honestly I'd take it all in stride if they didn't act like this is the end of their "master plan" by pulling stupid stunts like this. We all knew MBC execs wanted to see this. We're not stupid. But let us keep that in the back of our minds. Just don't smear it in our faces by forcing us to watch this poor excuse for "hype." Ignorance is bliss.

Any time the organization behind a competition shows some sort of favoritism they should be scolded. They are supposed to play the part of the neutral host, even if one outcome is obviously more beneficial towards them in the end.

The changes made perfect sense (except for splitting series) - every sport with a playoff system has brackets based on seeding. IMO it's the OSL that's being stupid for NOT doing this and now they're paying for it by having Flash vs Movie instead of Flash vs Jaedong. Hopefully they will fix this soon.

It is quite lame but honestly I don't give a crap.

The most important is that we have Lee-Ssang-Rok in the final for the first time in a proper league (I don't count Gom). Both players are at their peaks it seems so I wonder how it will play out.

lol i dont hear anyone complaining when they have those incredibly cheesy opening ceremonies at the finals and all that kind of crap, not to mention all those retarded (although sometimes funny as hell) ceremonies from progamers.

And now people are whining about one dumb popup, come on. Besides, none of it impacts the games itself, unlike fake wrestling where it's all staged.

Haha remember the GOM final with Jangbi and Bisu slowly moving to each other on those platforms?


lmao yes SUPER awkward

In lopsided NFL playoff games, they always spend the last few minutes talking about the next matchup.

As far as I can tell from other comments, the Flash popup did not mention Jaedong specifically.

Complainers gotta complain.

yup that.

Also it fuelled series of amused outbursts by hundreds of rabid foreigner fanboys with access to internet+livestream =P fade-in was creepy and funny at the same time

Wait, the popup didn't even mention Jaedong specifically? Uhhhh, well then why on earth is there this much fuss about it? I mean sure it's cheesy but that's nothing to get so upset about.

I thought the popup was calling the game for Jaedong before it was over, which would have been disrespectful (although not outrageous given the situation) -_-

I don't really care, but I guess I would have preferred it if they hadn't done that.

However, when Jaedong was being interviewed and they showed Flash's face when Jaedong was talking about the finals, I thought that was cool.

Don't care didn't even really think about it while watching it either. Was just happy to see Jaedong roll Kal 3-0 now can't wait for the Jaedong vs Flash Finals
When I think of something else, something will go here

its creepy to see flash's face in the middle of a PvZ game...

i was hoping to see some crazy mid-game barge in action like wrestling where in the middle of a fight some random dude just barge into the fight and made it into a 3 way fight...

like during the fade-in u see loads of floating terran buildings flying in with loads of dropships and battle-cruisers, all of a sudden flash enters the game landing buildings in an empty starting location and dropships bringing in MnM army at the starting location then proceed to kill jaedong and kal..

i'm letting my imagination run wild :p

Lul, some people take things in life too seriously. Sure, that's alright. But sometimes you need to step back and realize what you're spewing out of your mouth and what you're actually bitching about.
