No way a scrub like that would be able to beat Flash. I'm confused...... I will admit, I haven't followed the BW scene as loyally as I should have. FlaSh and Jaedong have met in the OSL finals and MSL finals multiple of times. FlaSh has won more than Jaedong though. FlaSh is also considered a god. FlaSh has always been considered the better player when it comes to Jaedong vs FlaSh Why all of a sudden, are ppl saying JD will beat FlaSh. Not trying to troll here, but statistically, isn't FlaSh the stronger player? Yes Flash is the most dominant player. No doubt.
But JD is on a 4 game winstreak against Flash, and really dominated him in each win (except maybe on Gladiator..)
Now that may have changed now that Flash is healthy, and I would NEVER count Flash as an underdog. But if anyone can beat Flash straight up, I would say JD has the best shot.

Im not worried about this at all. Both loses were 3-2 and for some weird reason at a certain point in a season a guy or two steps up for KT (violet in 08-09, stats 09-10, hoejja and barracks to a certain extent in 10-11). As someone who has devotedly followed KT(F) since 2008 I am not concerned at all. They always, for some reason, have a hard time against ACE and you have to admit team 8 just needs their big 3 to avoid the opponents top 1 or 2 guy and they win. For some reason, KT just finds a way, look at pefective in the playoffs for example lol. Also, I think flash and bisu will have 100% winrate this season if they dont face each other.

Considering the whole game, it seemed like a stroke of genius though. The maneuver JD did with the guardians attacking along the ridge whilst running his army into the front made it look like Mind couldn't have done anything but lose the shit out of that game.
KT were really good last year at picking up momentum and then riding that momentum through to the finals, I'm sure they'll pull it back. I think. Gaurdians were the only choice for jaedong to defend that push. Defilers were out of the question at that time so it was actually brilliant improvising. Just a sick game. There was no improvising. It's a common build. Guardians into Ultras has been around for a long, long time. Mostly on maps where zergs can defend 3+ bases with only one choke. One game that comes to mind would be Luxury vs Sea on Outsider. There were lots of others. But I remembered that game since I'm a Sea fan and saw that game live. You can see how strategies can be reused on maps that resemble each other.
Thanks, that makes more sense: getting the greater spire like that and morphing in guardians at the last minute doesn't seem like fixing failed attempt to get lurkers and snipe vessels until consume finishes.
I'm also intrigued by Mind's valkyries - I rarely see this too. Is it possible that Mind tried to blind counter the guardian transition by getting valkyries and delaying tanks a tad? It seemed to me he wanted to win the air war.
Anycase, I thought it was pretty batshit. As someone else mentioned earlier, it was Jaedong going, "Ok, kids, I'm a professional. Don't try this shit at home!"

I can't believe Jaedong didn't get S++++++++++++++ just for being so ballsy :< He lost a lot of drones to the bunker rush, that's the only mistake he really made. Combined with Mind making a few unforced errors is what caused him to only get an A, I think.

Don't try this shit at home!" Valkyries do very little damage against +1 carapace guardians. He was trying to counter JD's mutas, since mutas are supposed to be very strong on this map. Valkyries + marines own mutas. JD just stalled like a boss and won when Mind forgot his valks for a second.

The thing is - some will come last, and wishing for KT come last is somewhat "safe", 'cos their not going to disband or something. And you know, flash and kt winning everything had become boring long time ago.

you honestly going to say you've never wished team finishing last? like australia losing cricket, lakers losing nba. there will always be villains that people wish they lose in everything and KT is one of those teams.

nope.
when I cheer for my team to win I only care about my team winning,yes the other team loses but I'm not going to poke them either.
I prefer to say "I win" over "you lose", thats all and its overall a better way to look at things.

if what you say is true then you are pretty rare. even though cheering for your team winning is inherently cheering for someone to lose.

well that's is just your outlook, other people prefer to wish upon someone to lose - which is perfectly normal human behaviour. don't think you should have gotten so worked up over it =/

then again it doesn't help me truly savor a victory like most people would.
basically my response would be typical post game interview of a progamer and how robotic it is :p
