Congrats to SKT, they're the best team. Too bad it was medusa so they sent fantasy and not bisu, he would be a more deserving player to win the most important game.

- With your entry into the team, how much do you think the team's zerg line up has improved?
▲ Coach MuMyung: With rock-bottom performance in Round 2, starting from Round 3, we underwent hellish training. As a result, compared to Round 1, 2 and 3's result of 7 wins 24 losses, we went 12 wins 10 losses, going 2-1 in the post-season. I always tell my players as a coach that hard work never betrays the results, and I think this is true.

Yeah, tell that to Jaedong who went 0-3.

JD is still by far the best player in the world, day 1 i don't want to blame it on anything, what i blame in day 2 was when the TV guy told him before the games that he has "dark swarm" all over his eyes that is unsuitable for his age, and this is in front of a huge crowd and television, and this is while he didn't have anything wrong with his eyes this day. Poor kid was so embarrassed and mentally shook off he wasn't able to talk properly after that choking on every word, started explaining that he's just angry, that was painful to watch. He's just a kid and embarrassment like that got in his head. 12 hatch and fantasy cheese were BS, how can you do that on outsider vs hyuk.


Don't make excuses like some kind of n00b. JD is not someone who gets rattled easily. When he lost to Orion, he was already thinking about his next game against Effort. That's not the kind of mindset of someone who gets flustered over petty remarks.

JD lost because he was not the better gamer this weekend. Maybe he will be the better player in starleague, but he wasn't the better player these past two days. That's reality, face it.
Even though this Proleague bullshit has been completely bogus, I really, really, really do not see how Khan can lose this. I swear I will kill myself if they do. - nesix before KHAN lost to eNature

Its pretty hard when an entire team with the highest amount of resources in professional broodwar is working together to essentially beat JUST YOU.

On top of that, SKT1 has two possible ace players, fantasy and bisu. Because of that jaedong has to practice twice as much when preparing for ace matches while SKT1 has to only prepare for zerg in the ace match.

But ya going 12 hatch was questionable..but there are some clear reasons. Jaedong usually goes for a more aggressive style in zvz. Knowing that his opponents know this he probably thought hyuk would choose a safe build but with a slight econ advanage such as 12 gas 11 pool so in response he figured 12 hatch would be the best way to ensure the victory. As we all know it didn't play out like that , but its not like it was a "dumb" play. Just unfortunate.

PS. I'm not a jaedong fan boy , I voted for SKT1

Lets wait until the other 2 semi finals he's in are over before saying he lost his flair...

Being healthy, it has been said, really consists of having the same disease as everybody else.

J can win JvZ, but JvSKT is too much it seems.

To even things up, Oz and KT should merge :D

I don't think that's a mindgame because lots of progamers do that in the game room. I mean you would have to 1a2a even if you did that cheese anyway

I hope for the day JD gets traded to SKT1, they would be just untouchable after that..they're dominating now but just add the BEST zerg in the world and you have an empire that will never fall.

Awesome, they won because of Boxer's strategy, kinda make me happy a little bit eventhough Boxer didnt play last night.

I think T1 doesn't need a zerg super star of Jaedongs caliber. They just need a guy to win games occasionally. Having another Ace will just not bring any balance to the team - at least now is pretty clear who is wearing the pants, all t1 players have their own significant role in the team's success. Good zerg, yes- Calm or hero will do just fine

It doesnt nesscesarily to be SKT1, I think a team like Hite Sparky or CJ is a good option for Jaedong since they have a lot of players that are consistent.

But in Oz, its Jaedong and always Jaedong to bear the biggest responsibilities to win each match.

Thanks for the translation Kona~!

Kind of cool that the in the clutch, they turned to a Terran. I guess they had reserved Bisu for their super Ace.

Reading those interviews made me happy, especially the part where Boxer wasn't talking to Fantasy incase Oz figured out it would be a strategic play haha, way to go SKT with the mind games. They prepared so much, cutting sleep as Bisu said, I'm so glad they won.

I'm also glad that if the time came that Bisu would be their final player, but in all seriousness Fantasy is such a great player and he deserved to win the final match. With such a strong line up, Oz was always fighting an up hill (and very steep at that) battle. Not to mention JD would have to practice against two different people. Watching that last match with Fantasy and JD gave me such a rush, thinking "omg is he going to pull this off!"

It was totally worth staying up for that. SKT CHAMPIONS!!!

this having a disadvantage because of lack of practice is ridiculous.

They play bw 10 hrs a day. Its not as if they dont know the maps or anything. Jaedong has played thousands of zvps and thousands of zvts and he knows the maps backwards and forwards. I dont really understand why people bring up this practice business 24/7 when talking about pro games. Like "oh he only has such and such to practice for" Unless the maps are new and or are drastically different BW is still BW.
How do you go from where you are to where you want to be? I think you have to have an enthusiasm for life. You have to have a dream, a goal and you have to be willing to work for it. Jim Valvano
