Nobody is supporting Firefist because of what he did to Ruby, not because people automatically brush off relatively unknown players which seems to be what you are saying. If you picked another player to defend, like say, Frozean, then I would probably be agreeing with you. | ||

Not counting JangBi's fail with the shuttle towards the end, Stats did a worse job of preserving his reavers. JanbBi just played like an idiot, running goons single-file into arcs and such. But it doesn't matter, no matter who won can't hope to touch Jaedong right now, doesn't change anything in the long run. Stats defended Jangbi's push nicely with his observer placement. Sometimes its the little things that get you the win not always the razzle dazzle. | ||

Stats is guaranteed 8th seed and JD is guaranteed 1st ... too bad for him. He honestly would have had a better chance against Flash (the likely #2 seed) haha. | ||

Cheesing does not equal cheating, especially not on a terran favored map against a player who's better in the matchup than you are. | ||

I don't know why but the only PvZ I keep remembering when I think of Stats is his game vs type-b. | ||

Even Stats is a pretty straightforward player from what I've seen. | ||

If anything, he steals a lineup appearance from someone I actually want to see (Xellos/Casy/Cloud anyone? Hell I'd rather see Darkelf). Ruby was just a lazy gamer who had a couple decent moments, and now he's in ACE ... great. I could care less. | ||

Even Stats is a pretty straightforward player from what I've seen. Jangbi is one of the more harass oriented PvP players. He was like the king of storm drops. During is runs, I remember where he rarely engaged the opponent's army until he had severely crippled their economy. | ||

I thought Jangbi was ranked high enough that he would have avoided Jaedong/Flash, but maybe I am wrong. But yeah, you bring up a good point. Imagine if Jangbi had a shot at Flash though... | ||

It likely wouldn't have been Jaedong vs Jangbi. It would have been Jaedong vs Bogus (if Bogus won) or Jaedong vs Guemchi (if Bogus lost and Guemchi won). If neither Bogus nor Guemchi won ... I honestly don't know. It might have been Best. I think if Guemchi/Bogus/Best all managed to lose, it actually might have been Jaedong vs Jangbi haha. | ||

He's decent, he's in ACE, so what? He's not a "real" representative of ACE, he's more like an underachieving gamer who never worked hard enough to fulfill his potential in MBC so he just ducked out and went to ACE. If anything, he steals a lineup appearance from someone I actually want to see (Xellos/Casy/Cloud anyone? Hell I'd rather see Darkelf). Ruby was just a lazy gamer who had a couple decent moments, and now he's in ACE ... great. I could care less. Wow that's insightful /sarcasm | ||

Hmm I might have to root for Bogus here.... EDIT: Oops, forgot about Guemchi. Both Bogus AND Guemchi need to lose while Best wins for this to happen. It's definitely possible though. | ||
