If Stork and Bisu somehow go down early, he has a shot. If he hits Bisu he's screwed. Stork's PvZ might just be weak enough for Jaedong to slip through if he gets lucky.

His odds aren't great, but I'd say he has a chance.

It's a good thing that there are only 2 really good P's right now, there are others that approach stork and bisu, but none of them have the same spark or solidity in all matchups. Stork still sometimes chooses to play PvZ in an archaic way (see: hardcore zealot) compared to Bisu, and for that reason Jaedong might be able to pull off his agressive play. However when it comes to the multy-tasking monster Bisu I wonder if he can adapt to getting harassed. Though if Bisu doesn't completely rape Hwasin (the opposite would be losing) it might affect his mental state somewhat. Then again Bisu ,and Stork, are playing the players they should have met in the finals or semis.

EDIT: whoops I'm retarded, we're talking about OSL here. Well, in that case I'm giving Jaedong even less of a chance because I don't see Bisu or Stork getting anyone they can't handle.

I'm not confident his ZvT is the best right now, and want to see how well he does on hard maps for zerg vs top terrans who are practicing vs zerg for a week or more straight.

This is one of those times where the statistics are a bit too early despite being really good for him.
Obviously if he wins this league i'll definitely change my stance. I am just doubtful he could be far in the lead of ZvT when there's so many good zergs, and that Savior is probably still top but has had to play on some rougher maps.


Quite sensible thing to say.

Jaedong can handle any terran and any Zerg, he will make it, unless he ends up fighting Bisu or Stork, above 70% in ZvT and ZvZ is pretty insane

People are referring too much to TLPD for their arguments (HotBid anyone?).

Savior dropped a game to bifrost on desertfox, I remember that stinker as clear as day. Towards Shin3 Savior said his games were becoming increasingly tougher. Well of course, he's been owning since UZOO in 05, he's been THE GUY for whom everyone trained to win against.

Jaedong's zvt is rock solid, his zvz is immaculate, but his zvp is morbid. He's not gonna win a starleague without a ton of luck like what happened to Casy or Gorush, especially now in this era.

God I wouldn't want him to be another Casy, big ZvT/Mirror MUs, with vP so shit the quickest way to eliminate him from a starleague is just to drop a P into his group.
If you can, then do. If I can, I will.

Keep in mind that if Frozean loses to Rock on Thursday, then Jaedong won't face any Protoss players unless:
A) Stork somehow overcomes Savior.
B) He meets Bisu in the finals.

Meeting Bisu in the finals is EXACTLY what I'm worried about.

Can you imagine the anti-climax that is Dragon Bisu >>>>>>>3:0>>>>>>> Puppy Jaedong? He won't be able to walk straight or sit down for weeks.

I love the newschool players of Upmagic/Jaedong/Free, I think they're fun to watch and want them to succeed. However you just can't have a weakness as evident as one whole MU and think you'll walk away unscathed by opinion.

No man, it's called protoss dodging although Jaedong has not achieved mastery of this crucial skill.

gorush doesnt belong on that list, his zvp is bad now but when he won his msl and got 3rd in osl he was insanely good in all 3 matchups.

Dodging is for group stage, you can't dodge a starleague final.

And I guess it's just Casy then. But it's a stretch to say that his ZvP was good with your 2 examples since he didn't play a P once in those 2 leagues and ZvP in 2004 was exceedingly easy.

Jaedong can totally dodge Bisu in the OSL final:

He can pray that Shudder pulls a successful cheese on Bluestorm

He can hope that someone can luck a few wins vs him in the RO8.

He can slip horse-tranquilizer into Bisu's breakfast of rum and beef jerky prior to the RO4.

Then, if that doesn't work, he pretty much runs out of options and must submit to biting down on a cyanide pill rather than lose 3-0 to Bisu.

Jaedong is pretty good but I doubt he can win the OSL yet.

I think the terrans in the OSL are good enough such that Bisu is less likely than Jaedong to make the finals.

If both meet in the finals, though, Jaedong should take the cyanide pill
