I think people are just angry about the early aggression (which was totally light's fault he didn't defend) because they want long epic games. And because the series ending was so underwhelming.

You gotta do what you gotta do to win...

Jd has a golden mouse, 2 MSL golds and a WCG gold. He deserves his aura

EDIT: as does Flash and Bisu (aura diminishing, but still)

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?


It's "Dirty Zerg"! Zerg has to play a standard, by-the-books macro game and roll over to Terran 14cc/mech on crap maps otherwise they're cheesy. Even if they're reacting to the opponent or aren't all-in (JD was only all-in in the last game), any whiff of early aggression is suspect.

When both of the games that went into end game were won by the other player, you start suspecting whether the player is trying to avoid the endgame.


That's not even in question. He was obviously trying to end it early.

To those who tuned in late this is what happened

+ Show Spoiler +
Game 1
Light is reading TL threads and sees that 14 CC is IMBA. So he 14ccs
Jaedong doesnt give a damn and decides to go speedling bust.
Light GGs
I dont recommend

Game 2
Light wisen ups and goes 1 rax fe
Jaedong goes 3 hatch but fails with his muta controls and light gets to the point of 4 base terran vs 4 base zerg. this game becomes uber epic with BCs. Light plays an S class game and wins
Watch it

Game 3
Light attempts 14cc but Jaedong has gosu drone micro and delays it. He then proceeds with a 3 hatch hydra bust. The bust is somewhat successful. For some reason, jaedong backs off and decides to go standard vs mech. Jaedong drops and swarms, but fails to mech. GG (at this point, the thread became another imba talk)
Watch it

Game 4
Jaedong goes mad at infests 2 ccs. Jaedong has more ccs than light. Light GGs.
At this point, I wont be wearing clean pants tomorrow

Game 5
Jaedong decides to end this quick with a 2 hatch mutaling all in. (he cuts drones at his nat)
Dont recommend

I have a feeling Jaedong will get 0-3 by Flash again.

Tell that to EffOrt!



JD isn't really the type to 4/5 pool imo.


Tell that to Hwasin. And then tell that to Hwasin once again.


then to fantasy.

Effort couldn't amount to JD's ballsweat, that is the difference between the two players. JD is better in every matchup, unconditionally. Keep crying, JD is the only zerg who can compete with the best terrans late game. Which other zerg would have beat Sea in a bo5, then beat Light in a bo3 and bo5? I don't think there is another one.

Yeah that ''aura'' which brought him 5 Starleague titles.

Hi, I'm going to hand you the game by not building a bunker and having a shitty wall. Do you really expect me to sit around and not take advantage of this? These players play to win and are under no obligation to go into a drawn out macro game for your pleasure.

why is everyone bashing zergs for early aggression >.< Effort understood that early aggression was the key to victory in the OSL, and JD understood it here >.< I mean, its not like JD and Effort didn't attempt to play lategame, they did, and they lost. It's not like they were gonna just keep using a tactic that didn't work, come on. They did what was necessary to win. Everyone gives aggressive zergs crap for being cheesy, and is no difference that zergs crying about mech imba.

Ready to take crap for this comment lol

In my heart, Light won today. I got nothing against Jaedong but kekekeke.


after double infested CC i dont think you can even say that


Maybe some people don't like to see bm from big advantage, you know. I enjoyed game 2 and 3, it didn't matter who would win those games because it was exciting as hell but they other 3 I can't say the same.

hm dunno if your saying it was "bm" from jaedong. but it was strategy nothing with bm, he needed to get those CC's to cut Lights economy and proceed to macro. i dont think JD woudl had even won the games if it wasn't for the queens


Not really for bm I think but more to play mind games with Light and make him cry.


So abusing a clearly defeated opponent for your ego is good manners? Doing that after losing 2 straight-up games is just bad taste. He's not getting a friend in Light and he's not getting a fan in me either. Jaedong should put his competitiveness in perspective.

I personally believe that early aggression is hard to defend rather than mech. *puts fake smile*

People want to see epic 30+ minute games and feel cheated out of what could have been an epic finale to a great series.
