Actually it seems impossible to get harder than that

"He won flash by reading his play and countering it hard."
Don't you beat anybody by reading their plays and countering it? There are many reasons why you lose a lot after you win a big tournament: (1) You are happy with your win and lose focus. (2) You celebrate a lot and lose practice time. (3) Everyone is analyzing your style and figuring out how to beat you.

sounds like missing that final was a good thing ;<
|
Oh, whoa~ Not particularly a JD fan, but seeing that 0-3 is...a bit shocking. =S I voted for Jaedong in liquibet, too. Hmm, any recommended games? x3 ?

holy shit did not expect that

When fOrGG dropped his exp at the start I knew we were on for a good game but I didn't know who was going to win. Was pretty incredible at the time, very back and forth. By the second game it was less tense because we were more used to the idea of fOrGG winning a game. By the third game we were resigned to it. But game 1, if you don't know the result, is a v good watch.

what a letdown to me. expected Jaedong to win. must be very depressing for him when i saw his face after the 3-0 drubbing. what more could he have done? dont think there was a counter for forggs build.

another sad day in zerg history T.T

Man, ZvT is Jaedong's worst matchup and there are a bazillion terrans in every tournament. Stupid maps.

Yes, i agree with lurkers before mutas. Jaedong will learn from that mistake. Flash will copy forggs build and jaedong will be ready to counter forgg's build.

Edit: I like FORGG, hes pretty cool. I'm still not convinced his tvt is strong though, because he beat Flash by reading his 14 cc-every game- that hes been doing for a while. Sea also chokes alot. I'd be happy for him to prove me wrong, but either way, I don't see forgg as being a dominant kind of player. Still, undeniable that hes very, very good, and that this msl was really deserved considering, as others said, it REALLY doesn't get harder then this.

that being said, forgg rapes and if he can maintain this play hes not going to fade away.

have you ever played either forgg or flash, idra?
