If both of them were playing without heaters then, I'm sorry, but using it as an excuse for losing when the other player was under the same conditions is complete and utter BS.
the studio was designed to let the players play at the best, even if they both didnt have heaters its fucked up. thats like saying if they suddenly decided to use an aircon in winter that a player shouldnt complain because both players were in the same playing conditions.


You need to learn to read my friend. It's fucked up, but it can't be used as an excuse for one player's loss to another.

yes it can, some people deal with things differently. its supposed to be about who is the better player, not who deals with adverse conditions the best.

yes he can, if he thinks thats why he lost why cant he say that. what do u want him to say, JD plays better with cold hands than i do? besides he said that and being nervous caused him to lose in a disappointing fashion, not implying that he wouldve won if his hands werent cold

Turtles, being cold-blooded, need an external heat source to adjust their body temperature to optimal levels. Jaedong, being a bird of prey, is decidedly warm-blooded.

cold hands is a perfectly valid excuse, try playing at 350 apm with stiff fingers


tell that to jaedong. he was in the same booth, but his muta micro seemed good nonetheless.

well again people respond to conditions differently but muta micro is far more about mouse movement which is mostly generated by the wrist, which doesnt get stiff from the cold nearly as much as the smaller joints in the fingers. its keyboard mechanics that really suffer with cold hands.

It is his fault for not wearing a parka. A lot of progamers use them(even Jaedong?) and it works well once you get used to it. If you keep the core temperature high, your body will eventually send more blood to the hands, and keep them warm. Kinda like how eskimos do a lot of work without gloves in freezing temperatures. "Practice" playing in the cold, wearing a parka!

That Flash didn't suck it up and come back ready for game four shows he didn't have the heart of a champion? I'd give this viewpoint slightly more credence than none if the adversities had anything to do with Starcraft, but they didn't. This wasn't the same as any other come-from-behind situation and claiming it was is absurd.

If anything, what's most impressive about Flash's mentality and manner from this interview is that he took his loss of game four in stride. I'm glad he's moved on.

Thanks again for the translation, MrHoon, and the update, Wax.

Not a big fan of flash. The interview is candid, but he doesn't really accept that he lost or move on. "cold hands"... Jaedong dealt with it.

When NBA teams have to deal with a bad call they don't usually blame it for everything in interviews afterwards.

Basically, yes. Or no. Maybe. It just means he is less likely to win a lot of leagues if he can not cope with outside conditions not being optimal.

The difference is that in any other professional sport referee calls, even bad ones, are handled professionally and swiftly. What happened at the MSL was a complete farce.

I can understand why flash feels that way, that's for sure. And i hate to play with frozen hands, that's just hard and he being nervous doesn't make it easier at all. Well a good final like this and it ends like a total failure, imo. Well i hope Jaedong and Flash will play each other in any other league/tournament in the finals, hope for a good series then.
