Yeah people were saying this about Savior too.
savior, the match fixer? lets not talk about him anymore, okay?
He's still one of the bonjwas, and probably the most dominant of them all (relatively). Deal with it.
wasn't imba, Jaedong could have won those games if he got defilers earlier in game one and controlled his drop better in game 4 he just wasn't good enough and Flash crushed him.

Savior never accomplished what Flash is doing, and a lot of people would argue Nada was more dominant and oov/boxer was more important for all races.

Can you please tell Jaedong of a way to get defilers earlier than rushing to defiler? He practically skipped midgame to get them.
Game 4 was beauty on both sides. Jaedong with an incredible defense and I loved his strategical thinking, Flash for his overall game sense and defense and proactively denying any attempt at a third.
I think game 4 might be the most important game in SC since Bisu dethroned savior. I'm not talking about strategy or revolution, but just in a way it puts Flash on a level thought impossible.

Yeah. I understand people being upset about match fixing but refusing to accept saviors existence and impact is pretty ridiculous.

Game 4: I lose a handful of drones in exchange for almost your entire force and shut down the harass, but of course you can keep building workers when YOU cheese so you still win out. I then manage to take a lost game and pull off some sick swarm drops, plagues, and runbys to stay alive for ages after your lead should have finished it, as you 1a2a around the map and take out multiple expansions with a single Defensive Matrix.

Congrats to Flash.
So sad for Jaedong, though. He really needs to take a Bo5 at some point against Flash next season, or else I think the rivalry is basically over.
Can someone explain why JD lost in the 4th game?
Flash pulled off a 5-rax which, while JD survived, damaged JD's econ enough for Flash to expand without worry and play his standard game. Gist of it, JD attempted to Doom Drop, Flash deflected, denied JD's expansions and went on to win.
Well done to Flash- it's an amazing achievement. I can't see anyone stopping from getting both titles next year either. It's great if you're a Flash fan but personally I'm going to be bored as hell if he dominates the next season as much.
I think the drop deserved to work it was pretty clever, and Flash even built 4 bunkers at nat... but he just sieged tanks and attacked with rines and it was gone. Bleh.

Not only killed he 4 drones (and jaedong didn't had 20 of them so it was huge), a overlord and jaedond didn't mined for hours but JD was still ahead.
Flash is just ridicolous good. Congrats.
Can't get enough of JD vs Flash finals (probably wasn't the last one)
How in the hell was JD ahead? Flash had twice the economy and plenty of production capability to hold, it doesn't matter how many hatcheries you have if you don't even have enough drones for each mineral patch at a single base.
Jaedong was ahead because he had the capacity to produce workers faster and his expansion was already up, while flash was in no position to put any preassure and hadn't even started his CC.
