Honestly, this is entirely up to jd. If he tries to play a macro game, it will go 3-0 flash easily.

Otherwise, it's going to come down to flash's defense where he will hopefully be one level above jd in mind games and come out of the early game even in every game. Which would lead to 3-0 flash.


so good luck to jd's kwanro style aggression to try to take out our hero.


lol you underestimate Jaedong's macro so bad. And I would call flash the villain not the hero

Jaedong Fighting! Hope for some good games 3 epic games with Jaedong winning all 3 :D

JD lost to Flash in their recent macro game, and was unable to beat Light in a macro game either (both times). If JD takes this series, it will be either with lings/mutas, or by Flash fucking up a timing push and crippling into the midgame on 1-2 base to JD's 6.


I think JD COULD take a macro game against Flash. He should've won that WCG lategame given the advantage he had, but made several poor drops (on par with Leta's shitty drop), that allowed Flash to get a sizable tank force. The thing about lategame TvZ is it really is a battle of mechanics and the shear amount of things the Zerg has to do is a major obstacle to overcome. However, JD's mechanics are top notch and I would never count him out in a mechanics battle. I think if the macro game comes on Triathlon JD can win simply because of the number of bases the Zerg can secure early on. Odd-eye? He'll have to play the build he used against Midas I think and deny 6 and 1 o' clock. And PR? I lol at the thought of a Zerg beating lategame mech on that map XD

I do wonder what JD will plan to do... Commit to aggression which got him the nickname "The Tyrant" or play a macro game and try and be perfect O.o Both routes seem incredibly Flash favored im afraid >.<

edit: my odd eye thought was assuming Flash spawns bottom XD just reverse the o clocks for the other spawn XD

To all of you talking about the difficulty of winning macro games, don't forget that 'strategic' play is a viable alternative to such games.
If you are not Bisu, chances are I hate you.

People don't see Jaedong 3-0 Flash because he usually loose the first game...
I think Flash has an advantage because he can study the Light-Jaedong games.

BTW: People give to much importance to the WCG games. Both Jaedong and Flash didn't even prepared that well for the WCG Korea final.
Game Over, Man! Game Over!

No, JD will push when Flash hits 3/3 200 food. The manliest time for a zerg to push!

Right right, I forget, sorry. Flash will move to the outer layer of his half of the map.

Holy shit I didn't even notice MSL finals are tomorrow until now -___-

Stupid SC2 tournaments clogging everything up

As to predictions, I honestly think Flash will win very easily 3-0 or 3-1. Jaedong's series against Light left me doubting on whether he could really take Flash. All of his wins were early/mid game timing rushes and every time it got to late game, he would get stomped. I don't think he's got what it takes to beat Flash. And the maps are horrible.
8/4/12 never forget, never forgive.

this MSL probably won't get as much hype cause it's been the 3rd time in the row. Too be honest I rather see a different finals lol

nice poll.

interesting fact: just like every other jaedong - flash poll, if you count together all jaedong winning and flash winning votes, its exactly 50:50
All what KT currently needs is a Zerg and a second Terran

I wonder what would happen if they played on balanced maps

Three finals in a row the map pool seems impossible for zerg. Ah well, Jaedong has done it before.
