Oh my god, I just watched the games via uTube, and man did Kal play like a Korean professional newbie. He made so many mistakes. I am sure that all his plans involved late game play. EffOrt dismantled him every game. Mass lings in game one, mass Hydras in game 2, and then trading bases in game three, EffOrt was just on top of his game, while Kal was floundering around, doing - I don't know what.

Best move of the night by Kal: rushing in to attack hydras with his zealots trapped in the rear.

Also I think practicing against Jaedong and EffOrt are two completely different things.


One S-class zerg and one A-class zerg?

im pretty sure preparing for JD = preparing for effort
(although not the other way round hehe)

Either way. Im pretty sure Flash is gonna stick with his tried-and-true 75% one rax expand 25% 14cc. Delicious delicious zarg tears

Yes, one he may spend days to practice while the other are his break days. Kal vs Flash would had been more entertaining vs Effort. Give Flash his golden mouse now, it is practically his already.

They have very different styles.

Snow is also not A class and he beat Flash.

Your point?

Not to mention we've already seen Kal lose to Flash 3 times within a week recently. A repeat of that would in no way be "exciting."

if kal had won this series that would be he had finally conquered his nerves, thus meaning he would be quite a competent opponent for flash. 2 of his recent games vs flash he clearly had a lead but then choked and blew it all away :\

Yeah, if Kal had won this series. But he didn't, and still people are saying "Kal vs Flash would've been the better finals" even though Kal apparently couldn't handle the pressure against an A-class in a semis.

I rooted for (P)Kal thinking that he became mentally stronger player and could play like he plays in non-important matches in PL but he unfortunately didnt.
(P)Kal just cant win in important matches versus player who isn't obviously weaker than him.
After watching this semifinals i understood that (Z)EffOrt vs (T)Flash would be more exciting finals than (P)Kal vs (T)Flash just because (P)Kal could lost 0-3 and it could be more stupid than losing 0-3 in semifinals to Zerg.

I can't believe people think Effort is an "A Class" zerg.

So only 2 players are "S class"? Cool.

Well by beating Flash he is S - class already . There aren't much zergs or protoss players who can touch Effort and now by beating the best terran player he showed that he is an S - class progamer. Oh yeah he probably was S - class for a long time , but he slumped badly and couldn't show it .

A - class are Zero and Calm . Zero for his weakness in ZvZ and Calm for his inconsistency as a whole .
