Konadora = hero! <3

JD does indeed seem a little more scared of Flash than usual. He really shouldn't be though, I think it's a 50:50 situation. JD and Flash will dominate the BW scene until they retire. ^__^

He should ask help from the MBC people!

Considering that he eliminated both Sea and Light...not sure how willing they're going to be. Maybe he should ask Fantasy for help so he can avenge Fantasy's loss.

Well, doesn't it feel better if you lost to the winner of the tournament? If Jaedong beats Flash then its like "oh sure I lost to JD but not even Flash could beat him".

I just hope that Flash does not underestimate JD, because JD sure as hell isn't going to underestimate Flash. A loss in WCG would be great.

Jaedong should just rape Flash with 2 hatch muta on PR. Despite what people say about Flash's defense, I'm still not fully convinced that he can consistently deal with 2 hatch muta builds from a strong zerg player. Almost every single time that Jaedong has gone 2 hatch muta against Flash, he's won. All these fancy late-game oriented strategies are looking less effective each day thanks to a shitty map pool and the lategame mech imba.

Maybe it's my Terran paranoia, but I always give Jaedong an edge against Flash. Zerg has all the initiative early in the game, and it's so easy to lose the game from a slip in scouting, timing, micro, or unit comp (as Light found out). Zerg just needs to know when to build sunkens. As a Flash fan I hope he turns the tables and plays extra aggressive early game to keep Jaedong on the defensive where he's not as dangerous.

I agree. Lately, it seems that Zergs never win in a late game scenario unless they get a big advantage early game.

It makes me sad that Jaedong won 3 games with early all-ins, but really, it seems like there's nothing else Zergs can do anymore.

Honestly, Light could have easily won set 5 given that he completely scouted Jaedong's build and his all-in move, but decided that he was just going to completely ignore it rather than just cut SCVs to get a bunker and an E-bay up earlier. The match would have easily been his.

"▲ I made many errors in the 2nd and 3rd games, and I think Light's late game play was fantastic. At the end of the third set, I did a lot of self-review of the game"

Jaedong in the 3rd game tried a lot of times to shut down the extra expansions but could only bring the CCs down to red. Good thinking to use a Queen in the next game to finish off CCs. I think if he would have won game 3 if he used them.

Also, Jaedong seems to have really improved in TvZ. Taking down light and Sea in Bo5s is quite an achievement with such a horrible map pool

Edit: Btw I think the title should read semifinals B winner


Yes, but this season's semi-finals were much closer than before.

The gap is closing in on them?

Nope, it was just TvZ...on a series of terribly imbalanced maps....vs a guy who only knows TvZ....and his last 19 games have been TvZ (holy shit).
Morrow on ZvP: "I'm not very confident in general vs Protoss because of the imbalance (Yes its imbalanced, get over it)."

Poor Light. Light is so fucking good at TvZ, he was so close.

GL JD.

He just needs to work on his TvZ openings (and not skimp on bunkers/repairing scvs) and he will win next time. JD was unable to beat him in a macro game, I hope Light just learns from his early-game mistakes.
I'm going to sleep, let me get some of that carpet.

Beat me to it. I wonder if they ever win.

JD seems motivated this time. Much more than before. Losing the way he did has to make him want to kick ass this time.

I think Jaedong will prepare aggressive builds like in set 1 and 5, where he can control the flow of the game. Unfortunately while these games are intense, they are often one sided, and short. Flash knows if he can take it to the late game, he stands a good chance of winning.

Man >.< Macro Terran so strong, I think JD's best bet is just to be sick aggressive from the get go >.< God Light showed just how insane T is in the late game, and it makes me worry about this finals D: Come on JD find better practice partners! XD
Jaedong and Baby
