JD's play was amazing. He played brilliantly and he cracked Flash's 1 rax expand BO like it was nothing.

MSL took a giant shit on both the players.

That's pretty much all that can be said for this horrible horrible night we've witnessed.

DOMINATED FROM START TO FINISH? rofl

Are you a newb to Starcraft or what? Jaedong had the much better opening, had five bases to Flash's two.

Flash owned JD's guardians the dropship play was genius.

But Flash has NEVER been the one in control the WHOLE series.

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.

Quit trolling Flash fans, you have 4000 posts. Yeah JD if you didn't mess up in game 2 you would have won!

Yeah Flash if you didn't mess up in game 1 you would have won! And then you would have been up 2-0 wow so cool! See the problem with that logic. JD definitely could have messed up in game 3 and like I said game 4 was ruined by external events.


you should know by now that not only does shikyo troll, but his knowledge of the game is lol terrible at best. He was the one who claimed Jaedong had 5 gas as if he had it for 5 minutes long to be pumping 50 ultras.

i and most others disagree that flash dominated jaedong second game. jaedong went guards which was silly. gg

I fail to see how Jaedong's win in set 1 was any more convincing than Flash's win in set 2. Both happened because the other player made a silly mistake in a crucial moment (Jaedong wasting his guardians, and Flash putting up an atrocious muta defense).

OBVIOUSLY FLASH SUCKS FOR NOT PLAYING PERFECT STARCRAFT AFTER HAVING A WIN HANDED OVER TO HIS OPPONENT AND HAVING HIS TEAM AND COACH FIGHT WITH REFS FOR AN HOUR AND HAVING HIS DAD ESCORTED AWAY BY SECURITY

if only flash was good enough to wipe his mind clear of all that like the bonjwa jaedong then maybe he would deserve a starleague title but lol he sucks


I agree, one would expect so much more from a 17 year old.

Everyone was robbed by that.

JD's win was completely undermined, despite some fantastic play, particularly in game 3. Flash's heart was completely undermined, his play in game 4 was just depressing.

One thing to note though is mental strength. That's a situation in which mental strength is critical. JD is the man who comes back from anything at full strength. Every time people have said "this'll be the start of the end of the JD era" he turns up a week later stronger than ever. In a situation like this that ability to just detatch from the reality and play your top game is huge. JD is the better player in that regard.



Jaedong thumbed down Odd-eye because he knows that Flash and Terrans in general have an advantage against Zerg. I, along with many experts, would have expected Flash to have taken this game. However, Jaedong somehow was able to save his 3rd. But then, Flash came along with 50 marines and took it down, along with a good number of lings and ultras. Then Flash swung around to take out another expo. I thought it was over for JD. Then JD, out of no where, flanks around with a bunch of cows and lings, and wipes up Flash's army before he can take out the base. JD gets his 3rd back up and takes a fifth @ 7. Flash puts pressure on this but, with a defiler, literally at 5 or so HP casts a dark swarm and then another, and pushes Flash back. With the nydus there and defilers, and with Flash's low Vessel count, Jaedong had the advantage, with the addition of having map control. It was true that Flash could have come back. It was unlikely however given that JD had map control.

The person really robbed here was Jaedong. To take a win, on heavily favored Terran map, against someone so deadly against Zerg as Flash, that would have been JD's greatest accomplishment, or one of his greatest. The fact that JD couldn't get Flash to type gg - that is just extremely dis-satisfactory.


This is what I think we'll all hear tomorrow from anyone brave enough to comment on the whole.. situation.. Day[9], Artosis, etc?

i also think kwark's mention of jd's mental fortitude deserves special attention. yeah flash got fucked over but how u react to it i your decision... im a huge flash fan but his game 4 play was easily his worst in 2010 and maybe the worst since september 2009. u can't lay a turd when ur facing adversity


frankly i think it's bullshit. you've probably never been in a situation remotely comparable to flash's and while i don't doubt that you can imagine or read about or figure out scientifically how he was feeling you obviously haven't done so.

if i were flash i would have been absolutely crushed and might've lifted all my buildings on a whim or built supply depots saying fuck you kespa fuck you mbc.


im not sure why you're making it personal, but yeah you're right, i've never been in an msl where a power outage abruptly cut my game and my dad got mad in front of a thousand people in front of my biggest rival. and thank you for sharing your possible reaction to the matter.

i'm not trying to judge. im just saying that at the end of the day, all the excuses don't matter: how you react is your choice, no matter how hard it may be. you are never forced into reacting a certain way: you might be pushed to the point of near-insurmountable emotions, but it's never insurmountable

Best summary of game 3 and best conclusion of the outcomes in this post.

MSL should get nuked and replaced by GOM. GOM was much more professional with good vods and even english commentary.

They didn't show in game, but JD had 3 o'clock, so JD had 4 bases in total (although only three of them were functioning and his main was probably close to being mined out).

In total, JD was likely to secure 3 gas (7 o'clock had 2 gas) and 2 mineral expos while Flash was going to be left with no gas and 1 mineral expo.

Jaedong should've had this 3-0, game 2 was clutch by Flash though, props. Anyways to all the complainers, yes it's a gay way to win but note that the footage of game 3 was missing about a minute, JD had two sunks set up and 2 defilers through the nydus canal, he had it won 90% from there. Would it be fair to replay the game and make it 50-50 after that? It was going to be a shitty outcome either way.
There was once a dream that was Esports. You could only whisper it. Anything more than a whisper and it would vanish... Now is the time to make that dream a reality!

No as I said Flash won by his genius dropship play. But you're ridiculous if you say Flash dominated game from start to finish.

this is what im thinking
