unbelievable, KT still win despite sending 4 zergs. No any zerg win a single match (except z v z) in Grand finals since 2007

lolwtf is this? best vs flash in ace match?! I hope the OP misspelt bisu and wrote best instead. Although i suppose it was inevitable that KT was gonna spank their asses completely, so it wouldnt matter.

400 Pages. I love you guys. Btw, why does Game 2 have such a low rating. I found Bisu's perfect defense exciting, and then there was also a major fuckup by him.

Don't be silly, there's no possible way for Flash to beat Bisu. Bisu is undefeated against KT today, because they are incapable of beating him. I suppose they fluked over SKT, but not over Bisu .
I suppose I misspelled the picture too?
If you are not Bisu, chances are I hate you.

The Ace match choice was not only cowardish and robbed the fans of a super Ace match of the ages but it was also wrong. There must have been going something seriously wrong in the SKT house to come up with that decision.

- Bisu has the better mechanics. Best is rusty, Bisu is on top of his game.
- Bisu is on a fucking roll this season. Even his PvT was on top. 80 fucking per cent. On the other side Best was slumping.
- Bisu has the experience to perform on the biggest stages and proven that he can withstand the pressure. Best not.
- Best's streak against Flash is not really relevant for this decision. It is not a Best/Bisu vs. Flash, it is Best/Bisu vs. T or Flash vs. P. This is not like rock, paper, scissors where one player's style is good against A but bad against B. Best's 6-5 against Flash was nothing but a statistical deviation based on some overperformances by Best and some mistakes by Flash. You can't expect that to randomly repeat.

I think its funny that some fans think that they know better than the actual players and coaches do without knowing their practice methods, the month of prep they went through, strategies they considered, etc. BeSt, Bisu, Park and Oov know what they're capable of a lot better than we do; hell they know what KT's players are capable of better than we do. You judge their form without having seen them play in a month (20 days for BeSt) while the coaches base their decisions on daily practice results. BeSt and Bisu know what their strong points are, and the fact that the team decided BeSt should play vs Flash means they calculated that they would have the best chances of winning that way (even if certain fanboys disagree).

Your statements of calling the team's decisions cowardly and saying there had to be something wrong with them to make that choice is a huge case of monday morning quarterbacking. SKT got favorable matchups in every game because their coaches spent countless hours calculating how best to approach these games. They know what they are doing, and they (the players and coaches) deserve better for their efforts than to be belittled by fans like you.


I agree but there's a big difference between performance in practice and how you play in the last game for the season. I dont know how much truth there is in Bisu's "I constantly lose to zerg in practice" but on camera he is fucking unbeatable. What makes this more sad indeed is that sending BeSt as ace was a part of long decision process and preparation and wasn't just a panic on spot move. In the most important game of the season Coach Park decided he can be smart and clever enough to "snipe" the opposing teams ace and come out as a giant mastermind or smth. To give him credit Park outplayed badly KTs Coach in the line up games, everyone on SKT got their best MU, its our zerg to blame for the loss. But in the do-or-die situation you don't send a mediocre player with no recent results to back for some confidence under this extreme pleasure. Park put his money on some stats and gimmicks, I'm not even saying Bisu would've won or smth like that...

But when you have on your team the only player thats arguably on the level of flash for the past half year, you dont bench him for the game he deserves so much to play, you just fucking send him.

Its the last game of year long season. Its your ace vs our ace.

Awesome finals :D Action and Crazy-Hydra and the SKT zergs failed like expected while Hoejja, Stats and Flash pulled through with the power of Violet. What the SKT coach was smoking when he decided to send out Best for the ace match I don't know but he sure gifted away the match right then and there.

AAAAAAAAAAH 401 pages! ^^ You guys are nuts!!! ^^

I feel bad for Doh Jae Wook. In the first game he should've anticipated the push and defended better. He cleared it up eventually, but he couldn't come back after that loss. In the last game he was visibly shook. He lost the game as soon as he put down the first Gateway. Flash knew that Best was hesitant and started expanding like he was a Zerg!!

Also, L-O-L @ s2 for not being able to spot the different timings between a 12-hatch and a pool first build!!! Fail of the year.

Sending Bisu as the ace would've been a sick ending.

It was mentioned earlier in the thread. This season's prize money is unknown. Last season it was 80mWon for the winner.

Edit:
I don't know why you're so fixated on the prize money.

If it was that simple then they should have just let Bisu practice like mad against Flash because 100% that KT will send Flash in the ace match? Then in the pre-ace games pair him up against a Zerg because he's autowin vZ anyway

I could imagine how many pages this thread could actually get if SKT won, a lot more people would come out of the woodwork. anw, now I'm waiting for an epic writeup about the grand final (done by non SKT-biased writers ofc)
