Still happy about Jaedong's win, and I commend Flash for being able to smile whilst accepting his award, I wouldn't be able to smile after all that drama.

As strange as it is, Flash looked happier than JD at the end...

That's the sad thing about all this, Jaedong was actually playing great Starcraft (and as always so was Flash). Neither of them deserved to have their hard work taken away from them in this fashion.
I'm a man of my word, and that word is "unreliable".

at least they respect each other even if nobody else does

they're friends in that rival kind of way

but I think both of them feel pretty bad about the situation but can't really blame anyone

It's a shame for Jaedong to have to win like this but the reactions from people are hilariously over the top.
Power went out they had 2 options. Give Jaedong the win, or regame. Regame is MORE unfair because Jaedong was very far in front so they chose the right option.
Flash played great but Jaedong was just a little bit better. Congrats to him. The final was dissapointing as a lot of them are but that's just the way it goes.

Kespa never heard of a UPS? and the 3rd match shouldnt have been given to JD. game 4 wasnt even a game, flash was upset (as well he should have been). and now JD is pretending like he earned this trophy.
I'm going to sleep, let me get some of that carpet.

And this series was looking SO promising after game 2 and all the way through game 3.

Ugh. Biggest let-down ever, far far worse than 3-0 in either direction.

JD strategically dismantled Flash today. The controversial game aside, JD was always 1 step ahead and penetrated Flash's turtling. But no, the 2 losses never happened because Flash is the best!!!!

Guys as I've said numerous times, if G3 would have went on, JD would have won. Regame would have been the most unfair thing possible.

3-1 like this, 3-1 if the game had went on. Doesn't make a difference, JD >>> Flash easily. In his worth match-up, on super imbalanced MSL maps. What do you say about that? Nothing, you just keep thinking about unimportant things and concentrating on the wrong stuff.

When G3 vod comes out, analyse it objectively and think for a while.

GJ Jaedong, never doubted you ^_^ Too bad you didn't use Guardians properly in G2, or it'd be a crushing 3-0.

Did I really stay awake for this disappointing series... only game 2 was "ok". The best game of the series ends up being a black out with jaedong at 3.5 bases vs flash 1.5 bases... jaedong looked like he was able to defend 7, with sunks, ultraling, and defiler but you don't just give the win to him because he has an advantage. You have them regame, sure it may seem uneven for jaedong since he had an advantage but it wasn't an advatage of epic proportions enough to actually give him a win, especially since it's 1-1 and bo5. It pretty much put Flash on tilt knowing that he was 1 game away from losing, and to make matters worse the last game did not even finish. Re game would be the most best decision as it doesn't effect either player since none of them are at fault for that bullshit and the series is still equal. Ridiculous.

why did they make the trophy look like a dong?

how did they manage to fail at that relatively simple task

I do, though, reall enjoy how both Jaedong and Flash were like... Uh okay. I guess I won this time. No big.
seriously next disrespectful comment in this blog is ip ban. Be happy or get the hell out. // SC2 is like playing with neutral-colored Play-Doh while BW is like colorful Legos.

exactly

except they can definitely blame someone

but this is korea so nobody is going to say "thanks but no thanks mbc" during the awards ceremony and i'm astonished anybody who watches pro sc would expect something like that.

i am livid right now. this could seriously have massive psychological implications for either of these guys it's just absurd the people running something like this could be so incompetent

Congratulations to Jaedong. I wanted Flash badly but I like JD a lot too.

I'm not really concerned about the title actually. This series was meant to determine who is the best player right now. I honestly think it's Flash still and I wished the series played out properly for me to either verify or deny that claim. I hope there is a special match in the very closer future (less then 2 weeks) between these two to actually settle this debate.

flash so mannered. here's a parahrase of what he said:

i wanted to show a good form to my fans but i wasn't able to do it... i feel it was partly due to my skill level not being high enough. i want to congratulate jaedong for his win and i will do better for my fans next time.

at least that's what i remember. better translations will come i'm sure very soon


Just about every interview of the loser of a korean SC says the exact same thing. Not much need for translations
