YAY, both semis at 1800 KST!!
Based on ELO, I do not see how the underdogs can win the series against the best TvZ and ZvZ of all time in a Bo5.
Current ELO Flash vZ 2310 vs Hydra vT 2133 Jaedong vZ 2240 vs ZerO vZ 2093
Got to be the one of the most unexpected upset in history of BW if Zero or Hydra got to the finals.

Thanks for this. TL calendar sucks so hard recently
|
Jaedong will win for my birthday.
|
I hope Jaedong makes it to the finals. Please, for the sake of MSL.

JvF JvF JvF Nothing else will satisfy me :D

Far from it, there has been way more stupid upsets. Both Hydra and Zero are top notch players with the ability to beat anyone on a good day.

I'd say it's much more important for the MSL that Flash makes it. If he gets knocked out we get a ZvZ final, and you gotta agree that will suck. Flash vs Zero on the other hand would be sick.
Although I'm of course rooting for JD as well. That final would be so epic.

Flash v Zero is the final with the highest potential for multiple super-amazing games. I've seen JvF before and I'll see it again, but besides wanting to see ZerO take the next step I really just want to see a finals with the most interesting, crazy, quality games, and I feel that Flash/Zero are more likely to deliver such than a JD/Flash grindfest.
Also ZerO is a very popular player, MBC would love to see him in a finals vs. Flash. JD making it to the finals isn't necessarily a great thing for the MSL, especially considering there's already been so many JvF finals and at least a few of them have not been great. Hydra making the finals is probably the only thing they hope doesn't happen.

ZerO vs flash give me nerd chills because this match totally have potantial for will be like Iris vs GGplay -______-
|
I dunno if ZerO would do well in a finals against Flash... I know he has the skills to put up amazing matches against Flash, but ZerO gets so damn hesitant in the semis and I would assume that would carry over to the finals. That said, if there was any player I would accept JD losing to (after a few days to cope), it would be ZerO.
BUT! How can people not want the most hyped finals of all time? If JvF meet, it will srsly be the most hyped finals ever when you look at whats at stake for the two players. Sure it COULD end up like HD MSL, but it could also end up like Bigfile. Go back and watch Bigfile and compare JD's ZvT to his current ZvT. It's like taking a very big club (Yeah its effective and gets the job done but it bulky and rough) and making it into a sword (Now its a effective, precise, and beautiful). Ok... bad analogy, but JD's ZvT has refined the Bigfile ZvT that took god-mode Flash to game 5
Let's face it, another JvF finals it worth it, if only for the hype!
|
JvZ Best of 5 and... FvX Best of 5.
JvF finals again, eh?
+ Show Spoiler +I'm totally cool with that. Jaedong fighting!
|
Hmmm I'm hoping Flash will make it to the finals, as much I like JD and Flash I would like to see them in the finals again. As long it's not a ZvZ I'm happy.
Flash 3-1 over Hydra JD 3-2 over Zero
JD and Zero is gonna be a good set.

Yeah, can someone add this to the calendar T_T

Is this the first time that a league has had 3/4 semifinalists come back? Jaedong, ZerO, and Hydra that is.
|
I can't wait for Flash vs Hydra - it's (possibly) going to be an amazing match. Hydra steps up his game massively for important matches. And Flash is Flash. And since I have no personal preferences, I will be able to enjoy the games no matter which player displays amazing skill and preparation.
Hydra's got a decent amount of time solely available to prepare to face Flash, and I think he's got a reasonable chance to win. Flash has the same break, too, so he'll be able to focus solely on the match as well. I hope the games are more interesting than the typical FvJ.

whoa, that's cool. Didn't consider that.
I found one kinda. the final 4 from CYON and UZOO had a different format with a losers bracket, so there wasn't a straight up final 4. But if we use "final 4' a bit more loosely, savior, chojja, and oov were 3 of the last 4 to play in both of em.
Edit: better one: IOPS and Ever 2005 both had goodfreind july and gorush as three of the last 4
|
JvF is always awesome. Go Flash!
But I do kind of hope ZerO can make it. I have always thought that he is the best player to never win anything.
|
Flash has to make it.. Otherwise it's going be another ZvZ finals
Flash vs Jaedong would be boring imo if they only play mindgames. I think ZerO vs Flash would definitely be more exciting and interesting to watch.
