Oov and Fantasy better hope they never meet Jaedong near a staircase.

Also, when I played Jaedong in the finals I didn’t think he was that great.


FANTASY RATES JAEDONG A 2/10.

Thanks for the translation.

That match was really nice - TheZerg's game showed some unorthodox play, Bisu's game was a nice come back and Fantasy versus Jaedong was a really intense game.

The spooked-wheel map (Heartbreak ridge) has had some really, really exciting TvZs on it.

skt1 has always been my favorite team. They are full of heroes. I mean come on, Fantasy, Bisu, oov, BOXER!

Thats good that The-Zerg won his matches. Its got to be tough being in the sk house when you are the only zerg there who is holding the torch to be a representative, and continually fails, and finally pulls through wins. Thats just great.

And theres too much to say about fantasy and bisu. I mean come on.. they are the best.
Hoo Ra!

Fantasy will always prepare slightly-off brilliant builds against his opponents. That's always been his strength. He's bound to take some games here and there just due to the highly optimized nature of his specific builds. It's impossible for Jaedong to beat them all. But in the long run, I'm sure Jaedong will come out on top. Fantasy's letting this win get to his head.


You could argue that Fantasy is already doing this well while still having noticeable room for improvement in his control (and maybe even macro).

On the other hand, JD appears to be nearly maxed out in terms of his potential. All credit to JD's incredible skill and will for winning that OSL (and he gets credit in the form of an additional OSL...). But he was very close to losing and we'd all be singing a different tune in that case.

The last time we saw a Zerg repeatedly overcome the odds while walking an increasingly fine line in ZvT, it was Savior.

JD's "weakness" (if you can call it that) is his over-reliance on his control, and corresponding over-aggression, which results in him being less innovative (unless you count "build only Mutalisks" as an innovation ... where are the Queens nowadays??). Being innovative is one of those skills that seems to be pretty hard to learn, some progamers seem have it (Fantasy, UpMagic, and believe it or not, Flash even though people don't give him credit for it) and others don't.

It's not inconceivable that Fantasy's mechanics will improve a lot over the next six months. In what way can JD match this improvement?

Great interviews! Thanks as always for translating them.

I hope this really is just the beginning for TheZerg. I find him fun to watch and he plays unorthodox builds which is always my Achilles' heel when it comes to liking players.

Hmm..Fantasy doesn't seem to be affected-or at least, not showing any disastrous mental setback-from his two 3-2 OSL Grand Final losses. That's a sign of a strong mentality there.

lol geez, what's with everyone reading so much into that one comment.

Jaedong isn't bonjwa dominant, nor is anyone else. What's the big deal?

4-4 SKT Zerg? That's a huge accomplishment. Typically it is 0-8.


Also, when I played Jaedong in the finals I didn’t think he was that great.

If Jaedong didn't screw up with suiciding his mutalisks, Fantasy would face another rape. Jaedong was ahead the majority of the game with 4-5 gas! Fantasy, get off your high horse. You're starting to remind me of FBH.

JD screwed up, so Fantasy doesn't think he's that great. Seems reasonable to me.

We can say the same thing about Fantasy, except that, him, he screwed up 3 games in a row.

Jaedong loses -> He's not that great. Yes, that's a good philosophy, no one that plays the game is great.
I don't think there is anyway that a reasonable impartial person will not think that Fantasy is a little arrogant.

1) it's a translation
2) Jaedong was not ahead, since he had no tech switch options, and really needed fantasy to not roll out, so he had to apply muta pressure to pin him in. Jaedong never 'suicided' his mutalisks

Welcome to every Protoss anti-fan's opinion of Bisu.

Any way if you read back to an iloveoov interview, iloveoov once said that he intentionally sounds arrogant in his interviews to put psychological pressure on all his opponents in future matches.

Probably something he taught SKT1 members to do.

It's official: Fantasy is a genius. And yes I know his legendary peers help develop the builds for him.

Shut up you have no idea about TvZ. 5 gas and 15 drones mining minerals is useless, especially with no hive tech (which would enable guardian use, at least, for ALL THAT GOSU GAS). Also he was suciding his mutalisk because he knew that if Fantasy is allowed to step out of his base, JD would lose (BECAUSE OF HIS LACK OF DRONES/OTHER ARMY). He was not ahead. Sorry to burst your bubble.

Also, if this would have been the first time I'd seen JD play, I wouldn't think he was "that great" either (and I'm a JD fan, don't get me wrong). The man just spoke of what he experienced. Looking forward for the rematch.
Im not a n00b, I just play like one.
