Set 2

Must watch. If you have time for one match, this is it. If you have time for none, you still have to watch this. Harassment/Defense everywhere.

Set 3
+ Show Spoiler +

Good start-out by loser, but smart play by winner changed the whole table around. Highly recommended.

Set 4
+ Show Spoiler +

Good timing by the winner, into mindfuck for future matches. The winner was clearly mad. Recommended. Highly recommended if you want to see what happens if you anger the winner.

Set 5
+ Show Spoiler +

Build Order difference into good timing attack by winner. Meh.

Woohoo, let's hype this shit! :D But it's probably gonna be one-sided and boring.

I'll just say what I just said in the PR-thread:

There is not a doubt in my mind that JD will crush Light. Light's fancy stats means nothing when he's up against an S-class player in a Bo5 in a Starleague semi-final. We will get ''Would've been bonjwa if it wasn't for the other imba Lee'' vs ''Would've been bonjwa if it wasn't for the other imba Lee'' #3 in MSL. And quite possibly in OSL too.

Light could take a game with a silly cheese or by properly abusing mech turtle on PR, but no way in hell he'll take 3 games.

Should be a much better series than JD vs. Sea since Light is a much more aggressive and unpredictable TvZ player.

Hoping this'll be as equally as insane as Flash vs Fantasy. Light is one of my favorite terrans, i'm so glad he finally made a semi-final xD (But Jaedong is still going to win)

BTW, why does the schedule say this match is at 13:00 when the WCG semi-finals is at 12:30?

Been wondering about this too. How are they going to deal with this?

It says that one semi-final is at 12:30 and the other at 16:30, so maybe Jaedong plays at 16:30...although even that may not necessarily be feasible depending on how long the series between JD and Light lasts.

I would love it if it was the MSL was at 13:00 since it means I don't have to wake up 4 or 5 in the morning to watch it.

I second this :D the difference would be 10 pm or some early morning hours XD

JD might choose to not play effort, take the loss, crush Kal, and then go to LA as the bronze

thats always an option

Light is good but people overhyped him a bit.

Jaedong will win 3:1 slipping one game somewhere (probably the first one).

I would be very suprised if Light manages to knock out Jaedong. In Bo5 no less.

Jaedong will win for the sake of eSPORTS.
