Haters will hate and trollers will troll. Being "hated" by someone in the realm of sports is the ultimate compliment. It means you have achieved something. You don't see people hating the Kansas City Royals or the Memphis Grizzlies, or the Detroit Lions... (outside of normal rivalaries of course) You see people hate on the Yankees, the Lakers, and the Patriots. When people are jealous of success, they have only one means of an attack. Seriously, did anyone else think Tim Tebow got way more criticism than anyone else in this past football draft? SKT1 has done something and is constantly winning and always in the running for a championship. That's why they draw a lot of hate on their players. Oh yeah, and Fantasy pwnd that Jaedong in PL last year. "Cheese" builds are defined poorly. 2 rax opening is hardly all-in cheese. Just like 2 hatch Muta isn't a an all-in cheese. What's all-in cheese? 4 pool, 5 rax, 2 gate proxy. Those... are all-in cheeses. | ||

Without his builds, he's just another macro robot. And I wouldn't give T1 a whole lot of credit for winning proleague's last season. They purchased Bisu and MBC's coach from their former teams, making them what they are now. It's hard to imagine Best and Fantasy muscling their way through PL without MBC's brilliant coach and Bisu. | ||

He can potentially surpass the SKTZergs for a spot in their lineup, not to mention fill in when someone on SKT starts sucking. I wouldn't want to say WHY SEND CANATA and have him lose every time they decide to give him a chance. He still seemed a bit suicidal in the post-match interview. That being said, Best and Bisu sure are being stars of playoffs. But Canata gave them some critical wins, which is not really expected of a fairly average terran compared to an amazing protoss duo. Well said. For me it's clearly Coach Park trying to give Canata a bit of a boost. Having said that, Canata has come in and won some key games over the playoffs when he wasn't necessarily expected to. I think FBB have performed as you'd expect given their ability, but I've personally been impressed with the ability of Fanta and Bisu to mentally purge losses in a round and then go on and win the Ace match. Right now I would always opt for Canata ahead of Hyuk. I just don't think Hyuk has done enough (recently) to warrant playing. | ||

You should quit playing terran since you are such a hater of one of the best to ever play the game. Flash and Fantasy are the best terrans, talent and skillwise, this game has ever seen. All the great builds in the world don't mean jack if you don't have the skills to execute them. And its obvious Fantasy is not Oov or boxer's puppet, because I have seen him do things they simply couldn't ever do. He has won tons of seemingly lost games by having to come up with his own answer to the situation his enemy presents to him. Someone who wins with preperation and builds only doesn't win lost games, they lose won games. | ||

He's not the only Terran that gets oov/boxer's guidance--something sets him apart from everyone else. | ||

If someone making builds for you makes you their puppet, then is Jaedong the puppet of neeL, who makes a lot of his builds? Or Nada the puppet of SoulKey? Or Bisu of Daezang+Nal_ra? No. Some people can make brilliant builds without having any ability to carry them out. That's why someone more mechanically capable does it for them. | ||

SKT knows they will face Flash in the ace match while Flash will have to prepare against Fantasy (most likely choice for the ace) but also Best and Bisu. | ||

And why don't they all play with the same style? Fantasy is the prodigy of Oov, but that does not mean he does not himself contribute to the development and direction of the strategies that he employs on a daily basis. His vulture play is entirely his, for instance - neither of the bonjwas had that kind of play style - and surely at least some of the (many) recent refinements and innovations to mech play were of his own hand. Either way, Fantasy is one of the best players in the world right now. He has earned his praise, and animosity, and for that he can be proud. | ||

1. MnM into banking tank into rolling hive tech Zerg. He was the first amongst the modern terrans to do it and many Terrans, especially Flash followed suit. 2. Early bio into mid game mech, mixture of both bio and mech units. He stated in an interview that this build was his own. He was the first to do it and Flash probably profited more from it than Fantasy did. | ||

Well, Fantasy can certainly play excellent TvT. And Flash in a slump, so It is a realistic fantasy. Don't forget, Fantasy is ranked #3. | ||
