Early CC's need to be punished more often, games that don't have any action for the first 15 minutes are just lame and are why I dislike Flash.

2 Hatch Muta isn't allin :o It's just aggressive, like 2 rax (though granted, 2 rax is a great deal easier to transition from)

That was the Yarnc build lol, it's at least semi all-in. Reminds me of the Yarnc vs Sea series from last year's WCG, he went this build all three games.

JD went 12hat and then gas before pool. It's the kwanro build that was used a lot on Blue Storm.

It wasn't 12pool lair. 12pool lair also gets minimal lings while whoring drones until mutas.

Is it only me or that everyone out there is just expecting ace match to be a grand match? Imo i think that the ace match wouldn't be that great a match since an ace match is the match that the progamers themselves when they would try to end the match as decisively as possible instead of playing some sort of grand game where winning is a razor thin thing. Sure, the spectators love it, but would you rather play a grand match and lose every match within a razor thin margin or would you try and take the match decisively when you could? Its obvious,since people who start winning would be the ones that would be recognized. Just because JD chose a 2 hatch build and played somewhat like kwanro then he shouldn't be raged at. He used queens to mindfuck Light so that in the last game the person with the mental edge would win, which most probably would be jaedong since light got mindfucked hard.

Add the fact that he went zerglings he forced light into investing into firebats, which meant fewer marines for his muta buid to succeed.


You know, when a progammer gets so desperate in a game 5 it gets really dissapointing to see the "winner" win by doing something so all-inny.

JD won too easily in game 1, needed games 2 and 3 to charge up his anger meter, game 4 he saved his anger by having some lulz, then UNLEASH GAME 5
Awesome series. I can't decide whether this one or the other one (Flash vs Fantasy) was better, but this MSL semis have been so much fun to watch.

I love how all the Terrans call zergs cheesy if they beat the Terran before he can amass his imba mech army. Late game ZvT is nearly impossible on Polaris Rhapsody, so why shouldn't the zerg be allowed to use early aggression to end the game before it gets to that point?

doesn't really help that msl purposely rig the brackets to get jd/flash to always play each other in the final.

Well when no other progamer can beat those two, who else deserves to play in the finals?

It's painfully obvious that Jaedongs ZvT is as good as it's ever been. The fact he just went through Sea and Light (beat light twice) means he should have a great chance of beating Flash straight up this time.

Rofl and you like games that end in 10 min whether either players like it or not?

Sorry guys but it wasn't THAT impressive. Seriously, Light just got too greedy going for a third and JD was able to amass lots of Mutalisks. It's no different to what Shine does - massing one type of unit. If Shine had done it we'd all be like yeah what a faggot.


Lol err... SHine does it in ZvP. This is ZvT. On top of that, JD's shown his versatility in a million and one ways. Shine's only ever shown cheesy 1-unit massing play to abuse ZvP. He loses horribly in straight up games. And his ZvT is unspeakably bad. You're just way off lol.


The truth is if (T)Light is a better player (he is great and on par with (Z)Jaedong in this matchu at the time) he shouldnt skimp on defense (bunker?) on THESE MAPS.


Something Flash doesn't do.

Really, already forgotten about how Flash lost the OSL?


Have you watched any of Flash's games? He usually puts a bunker in front of his natural. He lost to effort though mind games, but corrected his mistakes and than beat Jaedong 3-0. Were talking about Flash here, he is the #1 TvZ player for a reason. His mechanics, strategies, game sense, micro, and macro are well above Light's.
Flash, ForGG, and Movie fan.
