Now, despite that the playoffs involve multiple matches, the GF is only one day, which is both more traditional and a bigger concentration of awesome. Also, the attempt to shepherd Jaedong Oz to the gold trophy didn't actually come through in 08-09 so there was no reason to keep playing multiple days. I think you misunderstood me. | ||

Hehe, I'm very aware I agreed to get my trash talking on. However, I remember quite clearly that the agreement was to trash talk in the LR thread. Fear not, for that one thread I'll try and live up to the "obnoxious SKT fan" stigma. | ||

Didn't see "the," anyways, in this case the answer's worse because you can just google it. | ||

Fear not, for that one thread I'll try and live up to the "obnoxious SKT fan" stigma. Yesssss!! Finally we get to see some proper cockiness from you! And that's the spirit! As a SKT fan, you should carry your arrogance proudly in a snide way and look down at all the other teams. No other teams can match SKT's brilliance. That's the attitude that all anti-SKT fans hate, and spirit that all proud SKT fans should carry. ^^ Modesty is almost blasphemy in a SKT vs. KT LR thread, especially the finals! Looking forward to your trash-talking then, a promise is a promise! :D | ||

Just to show comparatives of the potential aces of KT: Flash 13-5 v Fantasy (includes 3-2 in Bigfile MSL [6-3 in PL games]) 15-9 v Bisu (includes 3-1 in 2008 Bacchus OSL and 2-0 in ABC Mart MSL [3-3 in PL games]) 5-6 v BeSt (includes 3-0 in NATE MSL [2-5 in PL games]) Stats 3-2 v Fantasy (2-2 in PL games [other win was in MSL Survivor]) 3-0 v Bisu (2-0 in PL games [other win was an OSL prelim]) 2-0 v BeSt (Both in current season's Winners' League) Given these statistics, if Flash were to play, SKT would like to have BeSt, then Bisu, then Fantasy; while if it was Stats playing, Fantasy would undisputably be the best choice. Most of Fantasy's PL losses to Flash were last season, and they have only faced once this season in Winners' League in an epic game on Benzene. TL;DR KT should think of all of BBF as potential ace threats. tl;dr fantasy has an excellent record in important finals and thus is likely to be played for skt's most critical game this year | ||

Play off bo1 ace match ? I'm all in on Fantasy. Against Flash, last time it really counted was that MSL finals and Flash barely (and when I say barely I mean it) took the series 3-2, so I guess that's a 50/50. Bisu's carrier micro still looks bad even though he won recently with it. BeSt is the best weapon against Flash, but if the coach anticipated BeSt and sends Hoejja to snipe him, that would probably be the most embarrassing loss of all time. Anyway, I'm more pumped than ever. Yes, even two weeks before. | ||

Barracks will probably not be sent again, as he's mainly a TvT sniper, and if Tempest gets sent it will be for some ridiculous cheese. KT sends out Zerg a lot on New EotS, but only because the other team was likely to send a Protoss on that map. Mainly KT likes to send out their Zergs on maps where they think they can avoid Terrans. My predicted SKT lineup:+ Show Spoiler + Set 1 < Neo Beltway > Rain (SKTerrans hate this map, Rain has better vZ than Best) Set 2 < Alternative > Bisu (could switch with Soo) Set 3 < New Bloody Ridge > s2 (s2 very strong at vZ and vP) Set 4 < La Mancha > Soo (Could switch with Bisu) Set 5 < Fortress SE > Best (Will be hoping that its Flash.. or maybe even Barracks) Set 6 < New Empire of the Sun > Fantasy (can hold his ground vFlash, T>>Z map and T=P) Set 7 < Circuit Breaker > | ||

It's the only chance I really get to be proud of being an idiot. Well said, man. That's why i'm proud being a SKT fan. Also, Best and Bisu ftw !!! | ||

He may have sent Best before, but on the ace match of the entire PL finals, Best is definitely not coming out. It will be either Bisu or an ultra-prepared Fantasy. For ace match? The most logical choice for KT is to send Flash and Best is SKT1's best shot at taking him out. In PL, there's only two people that I'd take over Flash and that's Jaedong and Best | ||
