He wasn't hated by most people, but he was by some and it wasn't really that small number. But you are right that he wasn't hated that much like Oov was or Flash is now. I think that's because he was never that dominant like them. He usually got kicked out from one league in some silly fashion (Backho etc.), so the frustration couldn't built up that much like in case of Flash in 2010, when he in the end won OSL, MSL, PL and WCG basically at the same time.

It must be his demeanor or his appearance to people. Jaedong on the other hand has always been a people's favorite, whether he was winning or slumping. Maybe Flash should smile more? Or get good PR for his interviews? His interviews also are not helping him. That's because he entered his career by cheesing Bisu out of OSL. Back then in was kind of a big deal, we didn't know yet that Bisu and OSL just won't get along lol. Also Bisu fans were even more vicious than they are now. And look, years later and people still get banned because of things they say about Shine. Flash then proceed to kick out JD from GOM Invitational and Bacchus OSL, (again) kick Bisu from the same OSL and on top of that crushed Stork so hard he was crying during the whole interview. BAM, here goes the hate train! Flash interviews and personality are one of the best there is. However when you hate somebody, you really didn't listen to what he says, unless you could twist it to make him look bad. | ||

I mean, a large proportion of OSLs for example hardly even had any protoss to begin with - so many would have 2 to 4 total. Protoss is just historically not a very winning race, in terms of golds and silvers. | ||

I dont think saying "no one alive can beat me" or something like that is what you would call "best personality or interview" | ||

See, and that's exactly what I'm talking about. Forget about source, forget about context, forget about the hundreds of other things he says, because Fuck you Flash, I hate you! | ||

You're actually not saying anything in response to what I wrote, which was a specific reference to what Flash said which I believe heightened the hate towards him. You merely generalized and concluded without proof. | ||

You merely generalized and concluded without proof. It was you who set this course of our discussion in the first place. Taking a vague quote from unsourced interview without context is awfully similar to "unless you could twist it to make him look bad". First post source to this interview and than we can talk about it. | ||

You merely generalized and concluded without proof. Are you for real? You included no "specific reference to what Flash said" in your first post. You were actually being very vague and I'm pretty sure Flash has never uttered those exact words. I believe the quote you were looking for is this one: "It is not possible for a player that can beat me this MSL to exist. It's a matter of fact that no such player exists... I think this MSL finals will feature the strongest two players once again. Well, everyone can try their best at least. But in the end, I will win." Which in its proper context is clearly Flash trying to hype up the Lee-Ssang rivalry during the MSL group selection. | ||

His stats are almost S class (58% overall). | ||

Awaiting for the good 'ol Jaedong/Flash finals... Can't get better quality from the stream. If I'm watching Day 3 on saturday, I'll try them with 15-20 second intervals. | ||
