And somehow I felt that he shouldnt have gotten that regame in the tiebreakers, so far Shine could've done exactly what Effot was doing. ZvZ and ZvP... and so far two have lost 1-3. How will Effort fare??? | ||

He lost everything he had in set 3 and then returned with four bases!?!?!?!?!? Effort did play kinda decent but it is ridiculous that a zerg can defend with two units against a whole ground army. Those two lurkers saved the game for him... | ||

I mean I know this is your 'vindication' for overhyping Effort a couple years ago and all, but any outside observer can see that it's just Effort playing consistently mediocre while his opponents forget what they were doing there in the first place. Effort wasn't overhyped; he really was a beast last season. And his ZvP is still very scary. But he basically stole Shine's spot -- and I don't even like Shine, but those tiebreakers were pathetic -- so I hope Flash crushes him. As for the imba arguments -- Kal displayed subpar PvZ, while Effort played solidly. The better player won. | ||

I can only remember Calm 3-1 JD that isn't. well that's cause Flash has been in the 2 semi-finals last season and the 2 semi-finals these season. 3-1 / 3-1 now: 3-0 / 3-0 (also if you want to count 3-0 for Flash vs July in GOM S3 and 3-0 Iris vs Effort) | ||

Yeah that makes so much fucking sense, all players just play way way worse than they usually do if they face effort. Or maybe you dont know what youre talking about and dont realise all the freakin things he does so freakin well. This is just like when people said "Oh JD played well yeah, but he only won like this because Kal choked and played terrible yadda yadda" People look terrible when you play amazing | ||

I've been saying it ever since, the legend of the tiebreaker; EffOrt isn't losing anymore.  EffOrt is back, and with style. | ||

before Effort's slump, his ZvT was 21:3, this is fucking unheard of Even Jaedong/Savior/GoRush/Chojja/July wasn't able achieve such feat. You know which Zerg had a similar record to Effort in ZvT? Mother Fucking YellOwSilver jokes aside, Effort's ZvT is the real deal and I for one am happy that effort finally made it to the finals. TBH with you he was the one CJ player who deserved it the most | ||

People will say that Flash can just practice TvZ now and it'll be easier, but honestly this will make the MSL vs Jaedong a lot more difficult on him than if he could just bust out whatever he wanted TvP-wise on Kal.

And if you can't see that Kal played a lot worse in this series than he did vs Jaedong, I don't know what to tell you. | ||
