I think he means turmoil in the sense that perhaps the dominant players may be falling off a bit? If so, I think that's better for the development of the game.... having new guys to cheer for can only be a positive thing.

yep, I would find it disturbing if only a few players remained at the top for a very long time..it discourages lesser players from trying so a non-Flash, non-Jaedong finals is very welcoming.

I knew that Hydra would beat Jaedong and go on to the finals. I just had a very strong gut feeling, and it wasn't just because I like him more than Jaedong. He has been on fire lately, so there was very little reason to doubt him.

Lol at all the Jaedong doubters though- Just because Jaedong lost, do you really think that he'll fall into a slump? Jaedong, of all people? No, I believe that this match has taught him a lot of things, and that he'll use this to get even more fired up and determined to get the gold next season. I have a feeling that he might go on a rampage soon to make up for the loss, and that he'll be even more motivated and inspired by his loss.

Thanks for the translation; I always enjoy Hydra interviews, Hydra's so modest. It's good to see that he isn't going to let his victory over the best ZvZer ever get to his head, and that he will not underestimate great and just practice as usual. YEEEAHHHHH HYDRA, THAT'S MY BOOOOOYYY!!!

You know, I feel happy for (Z)Hydra, even more if he wins the whole thing.

It always sucks having your favorite player eliminated, but when it's someone like (T)Flash or (Z)Jaedong, only their pride gets hurt. They don't need the money, and they have nothing to prove, really.

I felt the same way after (T)Flash lost in the OSL finals to (Z)EffOrt. I was sad, yes, but another part of me was happy that (Z)EffOrt had finally managed to get that win he must have wanted for so long.

...then he quit. So (Z)Hydra, you'd better not pull an (Z)EffOrt on us.

Yeah, BW didn't die when Boxer, Nada, Yellow, Reach stopped dominating, and it didn't die when oov and July stopped dominating, and it didn't die when Savior stopped dominating. I think it can survive TBLS falling off the top.

As an Entus fan, I'm really happy for Hydra (and for my liquibet). He's been playing so well lately. Didn't have time to watch these games last night, but I'll definitely have to make time to watch the vods.

It certainly can, but it needs players that the fans can love take their place. Snow/Soulkey are good candidates, but Hydra has a bit to show as far as entertainment goes.

i think hydra will win the finals. great is good at ZvZ but hydra is better (and not just b/c he beat JD, but overall)

i also think this is it for JD.

like i've said before, the year of getting crushed by flash affected him a lot psychologically. you could see it in his eyes. he's lost his winning drive i feel. of course no player can sit at the top forever and JD has had one of the best runs, but he's been dropping a lot of games to people he would normally beat in must win situations.

hopefully he proves me wrong but this is what my gut and reasoning tell me.

You guys are really overreacting to this. Flash dropped both leagues early and nobody is saying he's 'done'. Jaedong is a champion, he'll be back next season. Count on it.

Just finished watching the vids. It was an awesome game. JD has awesome micro. HYDRA has better micro though that time. Hydra technically uses muta to win as JD uses zerglings. That was one of the best ZvZ short games.

This is actually hyping me a lot more than the stork vs fantasy finals (idk why, maybe because other players than the TBLS are stepping up? idk) and I'm a protoss fan. I did have a gut feeling that hydra is going to win.

Thx for the translation!
