no i think it's the right decision to focus on the series and all of the other stuff, not on this incident. personally I think this incident has received too much attention and not enough credit is being given to Jaedong for his amazing play and his deserved title. the way people are reacting and talking about this is really starting to annoy me.

what is all this "real final" bullshit. it was a real final, the games were real, jaedong really won it what the fuck. just because MBC ran it very poorly and screwed up big time doesn't mean the match wasnt "real" or the match shouldn't count. jaedong really won game 1, flash really won game 2, game 3 was clearly going to be won by Jaedong, anyone who understands starcraft and watches that footage carefully up until the blackout can see that. And jaedong really did win game 4, although it's unfortunate flash's play may have been effected by the emotional stress, it's still a deserved win. how can you people say he did not deserve to win and the final wasnt real or legit.

Although I was rooting for Flash, congrats Jaedong! It warms my heart to see them so friendly to each other, even in such high pressure situations.

Love you JD. Glad to see you didn't focus too much on Set 3. Your MSL title is certainly deserved, no matter what anyone says. JD HWAITING!

What was there to focus on, he got the win. -_-



Great play by JD though. These two had better meet up again in OSL Finals.

OR I WILL RAGE.

Its a reasonably good interview, I don't think Jaedong would have had a great opinion on set 3, the power dieing wasn't his fault, and I don't think there is a man on TL who would say that either player had no chance of taking the title, and at the end of the day, a win is a win.

What impressed me the most about the two of them afterwards was how well Flash took it, and this interview confirms that. Flash has his priorities right, and I doubt he will slump as a result of this.

Congrats to JD too although I do think this final was too exceptional in its proceedings to make me convinced that JD was the one who would have won it here under normal circumstances.

All together now: Jaedong Fighting!

Can't believe how great he plays. 22:11 predicted against him - and still he came out on top. This is a Bonjwa if I ever saw one.

Thanks for the translation . . .and best of luck to JD and Flash

- Your impressions of playing in MBC's Virtual Studio

It's adequate for environment for gaming. While I think it's definitely a stage I can showcase the full of my abilities, victory is not the only thing a player wants in the finals. There is a strong desire to stand before the fans, being there live with the fans is preferred and it's regrettable I didn't get to.


Take the hint, MBC...

ROFL

Jaedong went into the finals with the mindset of winning ONE SINGLE GAME.
According to himself Jaedong was not prepared to take down Flash, yet he did. Practice games must be sooo different compared to live ones.

I guess JD's play dropped like 10% and Flash's 30% compared to practice games. Jaedong's real strength is really his mental fitness.

weak interview imo.
It goes way to little into the power outage, the controversy, Flash, Flash's father and team, the way it affected Flash's mindset in game 4.

Jaedong just talks as if it was a normal BO5 that he won. In my opinion he did not deserve it and should have at least added a line like "I feel sorry for fans that got cheated of a real final, yes the referee's decision was advantageous towards me, blablah".


cry cry kt fan, you seem to be forgetting that jaedong was still beating flash on tvz imba maps and NOT complaining about it

No... he mentioned that a lot.

And since Bisu's mere mentioning of maps is bitching (according to general consensus), JD seems to bitch a lot about the maps.

Exactly, that's what makes a final. The excitement in the air, the epicness of it is what makes starleague finals so awsome. I really hope they drop this virtual studio crap.

Wait, what? There's a Flash interview too? Where? I would really like to see that.

I liked games one and two. I think I'll watch them over some time.

Also, can I make a request for an interview with Flash? Actually now I'm scared. If flash rages over mbc or thinks that there should be a better option for power failures in the future, it could rise into a major(er) flame war.
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.
