I find it hilarious how many JD fangirls there are on TL that won't swallow cheese without some whine to flush it down.

Flash prepared a brilliant strategy and executed it perfectly. It wasn't TvZ imba, and it wasn't Flash stealing Christmas; the preparation alone was Starcraft at the highest level. And contrary to the myth, Jaedong doesn't automatically win BO3s or BO5s against the odds by magically activating death stare mode. If he wins, he does it because he's the better player, or better prepared than his opponent. Flash is playing much better than Jaedong right now and would've been the favorite to win both a lategame in game 2 and an eventual game 3.

Also, Shine deserves some love. Maybe he "can't win from a disadvantage", but if that's so, then given his recent record, he's certainly good at putting himself in advantageous positions. And that's certainly a very useful talent toi have. His games have been very entertaining. Movie vs Shine should be a great matchup.

Yeah it was a great build by Flash where he builds a barracks at 8 and is perfectly safe against anything but a 4pool but wins against 12-hatch outright with no risk against 9pool or anything of the sort. How did he come up with such a creative and amazing build? Not to mention the fact that he's going to always get a free overlord as long as the Zerg isn't going for anything faster than a 9pool.

About Shine, yeah man he got this OSL no prob.

Loving all the Shine hate.

Apparently he sucks so much, yet he beat the supposed much better player that is Stork. I wonder who played the better game? Why would Shine play strategies he is not very good at? It would be stupid. He is clever enough to make use of his strengths. Stork was weak enough not to beat him.

And he certainly doesn't suck because he doesn't show new builds. By that standard, pretty much everyone nowadays would "not be a good player". This is the way SC is being played now.

So go grouphug you stork fanbois

no such thing as "cheese" it's just a risky early aggression that punishes those who should've known better.

I'm almost tempted to believe you are serious.

Wow I never knew you were such a fanboy

Are you reading the ludicrousness of that post? Even chill says it's cheese.


well if chill says so then it must be true then. after all he is the tl strategy section mod and knows the intricacies of neo hbr, the tendencies of jaedong, and precise and ultimately flawless execution of flash's "cheese".

if flash can do it, why can't chill?

I don't understand this post, specifically the final line.


i'm simply trying to make a point that calling what flash did as "cheese" is an attempt at downplaying the difficulty of coming up with a tactic that would work on a new map and against jaedong himself.
Any cheese is difficult at the pro level, but it's still cheese. I don't understand what you're trying to say.


when people refer to something as "cheese" they always have this bitterness oozing out of every comment as if had any other person was given the task of "cheesing" jaedong at this level of competition they would've been as successful at its execution as flash had just now.
And you know if a grandmother had a penis she would be a grandfather.

I've decided that I will be cheering for Flash the rest of this OSL.

It would give me fierce delight to see Flash wipe the FUCKING FLOOR with Shine's ugly face. Then people can talk all they want about the intelligent, clever, aggressive, stylish, play that Shine has, since Shine is apparently this master strategist who just outplays Stork and knows the perfect moves to make. I'm sure he'll show the same amazing proficiency and strategic depth in a Bo5 vs Flash.

It's amazing that Flash can come up with good strategies like killing the overlord. Jaedong should have practiced more, so he would know that he's gonna lose his scouting overlord on that map. Maybe he had bad practice partners?
hey man just curious

This is the worst christmas ever. Jaedong gets assraped due to his own fault. He dropped the soap here. And then Stork gets assraped after playing an incredible game 2. I can't help but feel robbed.

One question though. Who here, if anyone at all actually has a chance of beating flash?
How is movie's PvT?


I think Movie has a vgood shot vs Flash, near 50%. Flash has shaky PvT lately and Movie has never been bad at it.


Yea
Movie has impressive PvT stats near 45%
WOW
AWESOME

You forget the part where Zerg can scout absolutely everything that Protoss does because they have a giant blob sitting in the main watching everything for free. And the forge has to be at the very front of the nat, so Shine literally just walks a zergling up there and sees the forge spinning.

Yeah man, Shine is SO good. Only like S-Class Bonjwa Gosu Zerg could scout a +1 zeal push on HBR.


want to cry on my shoulder?


i think definitely yes
He wants

Fun fact: if Jaedong was playing the last game vs Stork, people would be all over the place with "OMG JAEDONG IS TOO GOOD".

Stop hating Shine. He overcame some pretty tough opponents. Whether he did it with style or not, give him some respect.


Why the hell do people always bring Jaedong up in these arguments?

Goddammit (Z)Shine.

I'm sure he outplayed (P)Stork, but that doesn't make me happy about it. (P)Movie can beat him though- should be a funny series between two surprising semi-finalists.

As a Stork fan I'm disappointed but I'm not going to lie like a bitch and pretend Shine doesn't deserve to win.
