Jaedong:"I'll play Flash when I dominate all other terrans"
I love his mentality. FvJ is supposed to be special like that. I'd want to see them at their full strength too, before they go at it.
Flash seems to agree with him. "I want to play him so badly. But, it's understandable. People have high expectations when it comes to LeeSsangRok."
So good to see the apparent camaraderie between them is still there after all these years since their dual interview that TL had translated back then.
Thanks for the additional insights btw. I've only been observing quietly, but you and Letmelose have been tearing it up on the forums lately with all these extra tidbits.
I started looking more closely at BW when day[9] did the pre-beta dailies for SC2. I started paying attention only at the end of a great FvJ period. I have never been and I don't think I'll ever be an expert [even watcher] of the damn game but I'll tell you one thing.
yeah i respect the both of them for putting off the FvJ until the time is right, unless of course the god of rng dictates they play each other in tournaments. no point padding the stats with games that are not 100%.
Somebody also posted sometimes how many baloons the top streamers got per month, is that still updated (i guess it came from korean forums) or did people stop analyzing that? Seems interesting to me as well, thanks for the winrates though!

Yeah it was 70-80% a few months ago not sure why it dropped off. Maybe the Zergs are getting better or he's focusing more on TvP instead. Anyway it's still a very good winrate

They are not avoiding mirrors. People just don't like to sponsor mirror matches.

That was me also. Most of the players are in decline due to there being so many BW BJs now. But, Flash still in incline. Sea got buff from Terror and he's getting a lot. He received more than Flash this month but not as much as Flash's peak. Bisu declined a lot(He's hasn't been streaming consistently. Shuttle is still one of the top paid BW BJs. Many people who joined moo. claim that their increased a lot after joining moo.clan (Britney buff). Terror, Britney, Flash, Bisu, Shuttle, and Sea has been and will be making more money than everyone else. Hero is just slightly below them. I predict Jaedong will join with the top receivers soon.

What is your reasoning behind this?
I think there is a clear reason why Jaedong doesn't play Flash in sponsored matches, he doesn't want to tarnish the sanctity of FvJ, but in terms of his improvement, it might be smart to do it. If I were JD I'd ask him to crank out a few practice sessions of stream if he was willing.
I think they should play each other. Last is doing pretty good in tvz and if Jaedong wants to completely dominate in an unfavoured matchup all terrans with Last included who is with with 70% win rate vs z and doing really well vs players of the like of jaedong, effort, zero, hero, then completely not playing FlaSh is actual possibility that seems kind of pointless to do. I think they should play and do it often.
You've contributed a great deal to the BW forums recently and it's appreciated
Larvas stats are as often impressive but his offline results still leave so much to be desired, he needs to be in that atmosphere more often so he can get over his nerves imho

NP! He gets ways too nervous during offline matches. Online, He better than most.
