I have to applaud the way JangBi used Carriers. As it turns out, in modern PvT, those units are more useful as a defensive resource; just leave the attack for your Dragoons!
I also disagree on greatness of Set 5. It was OK, but watching Fantasy hopelessly grounded down by Carriers two times in a row on the same map was not pleasant at all. Especially since he made like 20 useless Turrets at his artificial contain and displayed bad GG timing.
On a contrary, Set 4 was just ridiculous; I love this double-elimination, handful-of-units stuff.
On game 5 everyone thought that Fantasy was going to win. Even I thought it was hopeless for Jangbi. But then Carriers rape happened.. I don't use carriers.. But now I think Imma gonna learn how to use those OP blimps.

Errr no? He'd only have 2, whereas Nada, Flash, July, and Jaedong(?) have 3 each.
I think he meant how Fantasy has lost his OSL finals in 2-3 fashion.
Indeed.
If fantasy was clutch in the deciding game of final series, then he would be the unparalleled OSL hero by beating Jaedong, Stork (twice) and Jangbi for a total of four golds.
Hmhm I don`t understand that hype around Jangbi at all. Most of his wins are rather his oponents fails.(especially games 1 and 5 in this series against fanta)

because he made an enormous comeback not just in a game, or a finals, or even in an OSL, but in his all career at all. Anyone thought he was "FailBi" and he was done as a progamer, and now suddenly he won an OSL, having passed through all stages, including preliminaries and even a wild-card tournament.

If you put it that way,then I can claim that game 4 was not Fantasy win,but Jangbi`s fail,because he obviously could have had one dragoong following that floating CC and force a draw. Game 2,same thing: Jangbi`s fail with those dt`s dealing to little damage,and then failed recall. Games when someone wins without his opponent failing at least for a second happen one or two times in a year. And if you don`t understand hype about Jangbi (several comebacks in this osl,comeback in his career,legend of the fall,kong line,revenge of stork etc) then...I don`t know what to say....

Or everything lol Oh I didn't do well on the math test because so and so distracted me! QQ

Isn't that what a game of Broodwar is? Exploits your opponents fails... All BW games have been like that. :/
I have a weird feeling that you have not been following BW as much...

against fantasy progamers dont really need to exploit his fails, he usually accomplishes it by himself
