that's a pretty bold statement from jangbi..

I can't believe some people still believe the maps will affect players like jaedong. Did they forget the last msl?

Best has spoken.

If I remember correctly, Best was the one who predicted the outcome of the NATE MSL finals perfectly, right down to the outcome of each game.

EDIT: Yeah, it was Best. His NATE MSL predictions:

Best: I think Jaedong will win as well. 3-1 or so? I think Jaedong will lose game 2 on ultimatum, but he will take games 1, 3, and 4 to win. Flash has incredible force after his OSL win, but I think this is going to inspire Jaedong to prepare even better.

My favorite predictions were by Stork and Nada.

Triathalon extremely supports the bio pressure into mech play that is so strong right now. Jaedong being 1-1 on triathlon vs T isn't a big swing either way when you look at it number wise, but the games themselves are a better show of how imba that map is for this MU.
If you are going to watch any 1 game of this series, watch the first set, because that's the one jaedong has some massive crazy build prepped for.

I'd translate 气势 as momentum, but that's just my interpretation.

For example, when Hyun talks, I'd translate it as something like "Jaedong's momentum has been roaring as of late, but Flash's momentum is that of another level.

When Best speaks, it might go something like, "Flash's momentum has taken a hit, whereas ever since May, Jaedong's momentum has been absolutely roaring, etc."

Momentum, power, something along those lines.

I agree with Roffles, either "momentum" or "powerful aura" depending on the context.

Yeah I used momentum or just overall strength but sometimes calling it that sounds weird in English. Or maybe that's just me. In any case I think "JD's momentum has been absolutely roaring" sounds really weird.

Also I originally just literally translated it into "powerful aura" but that sounded more funny than imposing in my head

Most Terrans and Protoss side with JD, while most Zergs think Flash will win. The Tyrant should punish these Zerg underlings.

fantasy clearly bitter about his Bo5 failures vs Jaedong by predicting a Flash sweep. And shame on the fence-sitters. Cowards!

I love it when they're given questions which demand much more than a generic, PC answer. I could be mouthing off nonsense but for some strange reason I think the answers here reflect their personalities (for once) as people and progamers; Midas with the wishy-washy hedging, NaDa taking a holistic and thorough analysis, Stork coldly analysing map balances, etc.

Stork chooses Jaedong to win because Stork could beat Flash ezpz, and Stork knows he isn't as good as Jaedong. Ahh, this never gets old.

Or he just knows if he was good enough to make it to an MSL finals in Flash's place he would get trashed by Jaedong..

My respect for Nada increased even more now. Jaedong is close to beating him as the GOAT and he still thinks JD will take the title.

Indeed, I agree 100%.
