And he got pwned by Flash for it. Katrina + Terran pride == lol gg no re.

Seriously though, the proxy hatch was a slap in the face, and totally uncalled for. He had enough lings to raze Boxer twice over, the proxy hatch was just him being a moron. I supported Jaedong right through his last OSL run, but behaviour like that really makes me angry. Boxer is one of BW's greats, and if you beat him, that's fine - just don't embarrass him like a noob. BW is what it is today because of him.

What proxy hatch are you talking about? Jaedong 4-pooled Boxer, he never played proxy hatch.
4-pool against Boxer was a good strategic choice because everybody knows how strong he is in that matchup. He can crush anyone at any time. If you underestimate him or if you have too much respect for him - either way you're going to lose. Jaedong made a hard decision and it turned out to be the best of all choices.
Jaedong losing to Flash was a matter of time since Flash is simply great, he's the best terran player right now together with Sea and Mind and - interesting - ForGG. Actually I was disappointed that Flash lost to Jaedong in the bo5 because I know he can do better. Jaedong turned out to be the winner because he's a little bit better overall I think and not because Flash lacked of skill, that definitely not. Flash has what it takes to be the number 1, he just has to prove it a few more times. Jaedong and Flash are my favourite players and I'm glad that they seem to be rivals now.
So, Jaedong doesn't "deserve" to lose. He lost against Flash because he's so damn good right now. Flash deserves to win as much as Jaedong does, I respect both of them very much and I hope they keep doing so well!

Jaedong did not 4 pool Boxer. That would have been the ultimate cheese. It was a standard 9-pool.

Read Jaedong's interview. That was his strategy in the game, not for embarrassment purposes.

Boxer gets a name for himself because he cheeses then people cry when other people cheese? Strange. Anyway as SigrUn said read the Interview. Jae was merely going through the motions. He isn't one to act as if the game is over before the opponent types "GG"

It's one of the most recent games, it has been played 6 days ago. Of course this needs spoilers! Imagine someone coming back from holidays, checking a topic about Flash and then realizing a game from the Emperor has been spoiled that he wanted to start watching in a couple of minutes...

9 Pool is not cheese, Boxer just took a ridiculously dumb risk with his BO, and paid the price because of it.

Strategy is fine, I have no problem with the 9pool. But after he got in, and saw that the barracks wasn't even down, he did not need to proxy hatch there. Cheese is fine, and fair, but after you have the game, you don't need to rub it in. Have some respect, Jaedong.

After watching Flash's game against Mind at GSI, I'm really tempted to call him the best Terran playing right now. As much as I love Mind, his TvZ isn't quite championship-level, whereas Flash has taken 5 of the 10 games he's played with Jaedong recently. Flash's play isn't particularly inventive, but he compensates by being absolutely rock-solid with his mechanics; he won't give up a single advantage he's taken during the early game, and he just milks them relentlessly. The kid is a wall with legs, a bulldozer. While everyone was focused on Bisu or Jaedong, he just developed his game slowly and steadily, and by now I'd actually be mildly surprised if he doesn't win at least one of the two tourneys he's in right now.
That's not awful writing, DAMMIT. It's perfectly sensical english construction.

I definitely think Flash is on his way to becoming the top player. Even now I think he is in the top 5 on form players. I think we will just have to see how he fares against P as he hasn't played much P recently(At least not to my knowledge).

We've been over this and you're wrong. He built the Hatchery before he realized the advantage he held. What you're asking for is players to try just hard enough to win, which is beyond stupid, and leaves them vulnerable to a myriad of comeback strategies.
