All the others were fairly uninteresting "welp player X gets demolished by player Y because his mutalisk/zergling micro was worse" or "sent overlord in wrong direction, player X loses because he has no scouting info" you've seen in every ZvZ ever played. Game 4 was awesome (funny game) | ||

 . The world doesn't make sense to me anymore.I can't think of anything more underwhelming than a Hydra v Great final. (well I do agree with others that Calm v Kwanro is worse but this is nearly as bad) | ||

That's the cheesy part. Do you watch a PvT with proxy robo->reaver and say "Oh sure that was just a standard PvT, the Terran just got greedy and got his turrets late"? - Did you sense the hidden hatchery in Game 3? ▲ I saw his base with the Overlord, but I didn't see a Hatchery at his natural, so I suspected it. But I think I lost because I tried to make too many Drones. I thought I had almost won, but unfortunately I lost. Sorry, it's kinda dirty to come back and reply hours later, but I saw that in the interview thread and I couldn't help but say "I told you so."  | ||

I was kinda hoping Hydra would win to be honest (JD deserves another title but it's time for some newcomers too), but I still thought JD would take it. Congrats to Hydra for an awesome showing! :D | ||

(well I do agree with others that Calm v Kwanro is worse but this is nearly as bad) I can only repeat myself: The finals will be awesome. If Hydra would have had the build order advantage three times then I could understand the frustration. But he didn't. He deserved his victories by perfect Micro and tactics.This is not a fluke like Flash losing to Ssak/Hyuk, Bisu losing to Shine or JD losing to Hiya/HoGil. Hydra is a legite newcomer who deserves his spot in the finals and he is up against a ZvZ sniper with a unique ZvZ style (and very lucky pairings). | ||

Hydra deserves this MSL, but I still can't get hyped about it (just like the ro4 -_-). | ||

Hawhawhawhaw. I'd also quote myself where I said that the series was going to be neither a Jaedong or a Hydra roflstop, all the "lololol JD 3-0" comments...predicting that was like predicting Fantasy 3-0ing Stork before it happened. | ||

Tied doesn't = broken .Still sad to see Jaedong lose I'm not too surprised though either just because I haven't been confident in jaedong playing in any series either bo5/bo3 int he past few months after seeing how non dominant he is. He's just not really "crushing" anybody ever anymore. They are either some comeback or just a very close game which makes for entertainment but Jaedong's definitely imo lost his edge of dominance. I hope he can come back but I'm starting to think he won't . Only time will tell of course hope he comes back strong but not looking good imo .And of course Hydra has been playing very good lately not going to take it away from him at all. He is the 2nd player ever I think to beat jaedong in a game 5 of bo5? (flash being the first?). So Props to him while I do wish Jaedong had won I do give hydra respect and what he deserves he played good and out micro'd jaedong in muta battles it seemed every time (didn't see games 3-5 going by 1-2 ).Dunno who i want to win honestly don't care about the finals I do wish Zero or Calm had made it through they are my favorite zergs to watch after Jaedong | ||

Not that Jaedong is "losing it" (which I honestly doubt) but that we have newcomers in Snow and especially Hydra who are able to step up to his level. This is the first time in ages that the S-class looks like it might get some fresh blood (Effort more or less got there, but Hydra is looking even more impressive). How can this be bad? I'm pretty excited about the MSL final as well. Clearly Hydra and great are the two most interesting ZvZ players at the moment, and there are some developments going on in the matchup. This is nothing like Calm vs Kwanro, who were both mediocre and boring (except for Kwanro's affinity for 4 pools... and losing with them). I agree. How great is it that JD/Flash/Bisu/Stork are all playing very well, and yet we even have a fifth player (Hydra) who is at their incredibly high level? Then there's a chance that Snow is actually going to get there too (he was born in 94). I fail to see how this is a bad thing, as Effort's the only non-TaekBangLeeSsang player in the last few years to step up to that elite level for an extended period of time. | ||

To be honest, I am VERY VERY sad that Effort is gone. I rather want Effort to take over Jaedong's throne as the number 1 Zerg than Hydra. Cuz Effort has this aura around him that just makes him....majestic | ||
