Even if JD was clearly ahead (which he was) imo they shouldnt have given him the win, but restart it.

That said, he played awesome in every game and he deserves the win :D

The fact is that after the power cut and all the ensuing drama, there'll not only always be questions about whether JD should have been given the win in set 3, but also there'll always be the thought that Flash's focus was severely disrupted for game 4.

I like JD and all, but in my eyes there was no winner in this series. They both got silver.

Worst post of the night. So let's see, by strategically dismantling Flash you mean. Winning a game, then losing a game, then being given a game by Kespa, and then given a game by Flash?

Brilliant.

Oh, I forgot about the turtling part. I missed the part where flash went mech; it must've been during that hour and a half of commercials.

The saddest part is we were very possibly robbed of an epic game 4 and maybe epic game 5.

Both players were playing at such an insane level. Yet game 4 was just clearly not the same.

We'll never know what we missed.

Not trying to take away any credit from Jaedong, as he had amazing preparation for this final, you can tell easily from game 1~3. Both players were robbed of an amazing series. You could tell Flash just didn't want to play anymore in game 4.

Despite the unfairness of the loss for flash.
DO NOT BLAME JD. He didn't act as if he 100% deserved the win. He seemed upset when it happened.

That ruling lead JD to an easy win b/c he knew flash would try to cheese to make the series even.

Okay can anyone explain what happened in set 1-2 and 3? I didn't see them.


Game 1 was Flash failing and Jaedong taking full advantage of the holes in Flash's muta defense.

Game 2 was an epic break by Flash, elevatoring his army into Jaedong's main via d-matrix'd dropships, preventing himself from losing as he was going up against 4 base hive tech zerg with ultras while on 2 bases himself.

Game 3 was amazing. Jaedong's defense was incredible against Flash's very all-in 2 base play, with a very very late 3rd. But then the power outage and the hours of clusterfuck...and the series was ruined.

So if there's any games you want to watch, watch games 2 and 3. Don't even bother with 4, Flash looked so out of it and played as such. Hell even Jaedong looked like he was kind of out of it, but he came out on top. The 4th game just doesn't feel legit. Damn MBC....

JD>>>>>>>>>>>Flash, that is quite obvious from this series. I guess Flash has been decent the last couple of months, but he is totally outclassed in every single way by JD.

Good fucking luck. MSL is done.

Shine could have beaten Flash in games 1 and 4. Those came down to muta micro plain and simple.

on the plus side for Flash fans, he is going to remain hungry and rape even harder next round. He is going to practice until he can again face JD and beat him in a proper final

Jeadong was not winning ?
But since everyone seems to think so I'll leave it at that..

Jeadony was slightly leading..
thats it..

give it up retard. yes he was winning.


u obviously saw the replay didnt u ?

Im almost never sure who is ahead ENOUGH to warrant him with a win in an VOD.. except if u can clearly see the other players has more units or more expansions which are actually SATURATED

in this vod u could not see all this stuff clearly..

but yes for sure u are right.. jd won this 100%..

Lol, the new player Power Outage immediately gets a higher ELO than Firebathero (among others) for his impressive dismantling of Flash.
