EPTDon't think so at all. Flash is just too ridiculously good to lose a Bo5 in TvT despite being up against a team member.

Jaedong was similar to Flash a ZvT god when he faced forgg. Of course maps were damn imbalanced, but forgg is seriously not to be underestimated. | ||

I actually believe Jaedong has a higher chance of winning against Flash, he just seems to find new strength in the last rounds of a Starleague. On April 19 2010 02:34 King K. Rool wrote: Is there a link to that? Or is it just stuff that's passed by word of mouth? I heard about that too, but the finals happened in January and Effort has a 41% winning percentage in 2010, 21.43% in ZvT. | ||

Jaedong was 10-10 in his 20 ZvT's before facing Forgg. That is simply not comparable to Flash's TvT at all. 2. Forgg had been playing S-class BW for months before that Bo5. Simply not comparable at all to how he's been playing lately (even though he's getting decent again). | ||

Jaedong raped Flash 3-0 not long after the finals. This is testament enough of how strong his ZvT was. 2. Months? lol And forgg has time to get better till the finals anyway. While Flash has to prepare for MSL and PL too. | ||

Disregarding the issue of whether it was the computer's or the mouse's fault that the mouse stopped moving, was there any solid evidence (other than effort's micro being really shitty that battle) that the mouse had stopped moving at all? Because if there was no solid evidence of that in the first place, that's a really retarded decision (even without the issue of the Shine's huge lead, or the fact that it may well have been effort's own equipment that screwed him up). | ||

The referees did indeed check Effort's mouse and confirmed that it had problems. | ||

Months? lol And forgg has time to get better till the finals anyway. While Flash has to prepare for MSL and PL too. 1. Still not comparable. He went 10-10 before Forgg, including one 3 game loss streak and one 4 game loss streak. If you think that is comparable to a guy who has lost 6 games in his last 40 TvT's, then you're dumb. 2. Yes, months. During the 6 months before that he had around 66% winrate and kicked Flash's and Kal's asses in Bo5's. If you think that's comparable in any way to what he has accomplished recently, then you're dumb.  | ||

Of course Flash is favored to win this OSL and I don't see any player in this OSL capable of beating him in a BoX series. Epic only for CJ fans... In fact, I struggle to think of a less epic finals than Movie vs Effort. Pure vs Effort, or Baby vs ForGG perhaps. | ||

fuck you, pure, for robbing two otherwise much better players of a Ro8 seed and dooming us to more mirrors. | ||

Apparently, these Tiebreaks seemed to have gone longer than Flash v. Stork OSL...I think they may have been two times that length @_@. | ||
