a lot of the players and commentators say that the first match will determine the outcome... and i agree... hopefully JD can pull out a (Z)HyuN here

I predicted Flash to win in the liquibet, but I wasn't very sure. I'm just looking forward to some epic games. Flash had it too easy in OSL, I felt like his winning was a 'fait accumpli' after watching movie try to attack him on a bridge (game 2). He might have well have attacked a wall-in. Rest assured, Jaedong has been showing the same domination in the MSL as Flash has.

It's actually not an easy pick. Just a few months ago, I considered Jaedong to be the unstoppable dominating player. I specifically tried to find games where he lost. Now it's the same thing with Flash (except he's terran so I don't try to find his losses :D).

It's the clash of the titans, none of us mere mortals have anything to say. All we can do is watch.
I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.

I have the impression that no one of the pros want Flash to win. But alot of them seem to like Jaedong.

they don't want him to win because they are scared that he will be seemingly unstopable which would intimidate them when playing against him, giving him an edge from the start. If JD beats him this will make them feel like they can beat him too because he's human after all.

Good job translating so much stuff guys, didn't think so many people actually think Flash will win.

On a related note, not much sense in watching the final live now that I know who's gonna win

Bisu's probably feeling sorry for that time when he gave Jaedong a 5/10 for defense
one thing that sc2 has over bw is the fact that I can actually manage my hotkeys

Flash's OSL run included Jaedong and Calm. While Movie was easy -- finalswise -- it was by no means an easy OSL.

I find if funny that usually, if you win first against a player in a Bo5, you have the momentum, but when you win first against jaedong, you shit your pants.

Am I the only one who does not see Bisu`s prediction in the OP? Beacuse I would certainly like to read his thoughts on the final.

EDIT: And by thoughts, I mean a full statement. Basically, the explanation for his choice.

Fantasy: I think Jaedong will win 3-2. I also think Match Point is really good for Zerg, which I know from practicing with my teammates.


fantasy is losing to SKT zergs on a map that's 10-5 for TvZ in proleague

gg SKT1, gg.


No wonder SKT is falling apart.

What?

Why does everyone criticize Flash for being cheesy and a turtle. That's just because he actually varies in his gameplay. More for you guys to whine about...

I really hope Flash bunker rushes on of his games.

I think the backlash would be hilarious.
