Poor Midas, really seemed his nerves got to him in these games.

Though even if he brought his A game I'm not sure he would have beaten Jaedong, who just kept him locked in his base constantly in these games.

I seriously can't believe everyone who called Midas the favorite. -_-

maybe deep down inside midas knows that it will be extremely hard for him to get this far again... it might very well have been his last deep sl run. sad it had to end in such an embarrassing fashion.

edit: but great semifinals incoming!
calm vs jd rematch for 2 seasons ago, and flash vs free. free is actually one of the very few players who might have the control and the overview to match flash in a straight up macro game.

I think you mean set 3? It should be up on utube within the next day or two, either by Jon747 or nevake.

Guess Midas couldn't ride that comeback momentum long enough

I was really hoping he'd prove it was still possible in this day and age.. hopefully tonight's play was just the exception and he'll continue his strong play that we saw in game 1 in his future games.

Poor Midas. He looks so disgusted. I almost feel he is going to retire right there.
And the tyrant is showing no mercy at all. That was scary. JD definitely is the biggest threat to Flash.

Cant wait for JDs interview. He does provide the best interviews of all progamers imo, very proffessional

Midas wasn't crying. He was leaking Pocari sweat. At the end he laughed in defeat, knowing that he got schooled by Jaedong.

Yeah, that's the way it looked to me too.
Plus, Midas knows from his time with SK1 that crying after a Bo5 is only cool if Boxer does it.

He probably does mean set 4 (it was the third game played tonight, but 4th set overall).

You can't afford to make any real mistakes vs Jaedong (or Flash for that matter), or games end up like that. I mean, you just know that when Jaedong has that large of a window the game is already over, because he's going to exploit any flaws in your game. It's not even a question.

Shame it had to end that way Midas!

Does anyone have the link to the YouTube clip of Midas crying after losing to Savior and not leaving the booth... That was when you felt bad for him. This is bullshit.
