I actually don't like Jaedong that much. He's got great muta micro, but eh, he's ok. Nothing really about him that inspires me, except his rivalry with Flash. I hate Samsung Khan because they're a team of snipers and 1 match or 2 matchup flakes that spend their whole entire lives in mediocrity. I think the most badass player on the whole entire team is [oops]January, and she doesn't even play. They have no-all stars, nobody that defines their team the way Pusan and July, Reach and Yellow, Boxer and Oov once did for their teams. All they have is FBH who loses more often than he dances and Stork who's got more second places than Yellow and half the innovation. But I hate Frozean too. Frozean drew that match out for so long because he was scared and was held back by the threat of 5 mutas. For like 10 minutes. He's like Rock; he enjoys taking spots from legitmate spots from rookies or oldies who have more stylistic flair and are more entertaining to watch. Frozean is going to rolled over in the MSL. Frozean is very good (and historically has been) good against defending muta micro against Jaedong. Unless he's playing against lux, in which case he should have fallen so far behind that Lux wouldn't go muta against his pathetic play. Frozean ended Jaedong's ZvT streak. Ironically, go.go also stopped Flash's win streak. In conclusion, don't judge me. If you're going to pick on fanboys, at least make it a blanket statement instead of calling out one of them. | ||

You're a dumbass. 9 pool is not cheese. Since when is building your first unit building cheese? Terran makes barrack, Protoss makes Gateway. So everytime Terran or Protoss doesn't do double CC or double nexus, I guess they're cheesing. The only reason why those Terrans bunker rush Jaedong is because they know they can't beat him in a straight up game | ||

Hold on a second, either I'm having the strangest Deja Vu ever, or someone (you?) already wrote something like this (with over 95.5% similarity  ), then did it again / in another thread, and he / she / you have been called out on it as well. Am I just on drugs? | ||

Am I just on drugs? I dunno, maybe something of similar content, I would like think that I have consistent views on semi-controversial issues. In fact, I'm pretty sure that I've voiced all of these opinions before on Tl.net but I voiced them again here so he wouldn't call me a Jaedong fanboy. I don't think I've ever been called out on my fanboyism (for Jaedong, specifically) before, so that part can't be deja vu. I don't really like typing up the same thought multiple times (I can understand completely why Chill hates typing up, "read the strat forum guidelines") but because a lot of the threads on special games are similar I sometimes write the same thing multiple times on accident. | ||

I don't like Frozean. He's just boring for me, but the rest of Samsung KHAN is pretty solid. Samsung has stars whether you want to admit it or not. They have Jangbi, Stork, and FBH. Stork is one of their best, if not their best, player on the team. Stork does a wide variety of strats and he is very good in all his matchups. He is far from a Yellow. Stork has been around for a while and he is still up there with the best. | ||

I don't care about the reasoning. You could just say "I hate them cuz they're all fags" and I won't question that. But most players are "1 or 2 matchup flakes." You then turn around and name Pusan, Reach and Boxer, who are "1 or 2 matchup flakes." And if Stork is a player stuck in mediocrity, I guess 99.5% of pro gamers are mediocre and you should hate them all (Pusan included) | ||

The flashiest player they have, as far as cool moves in-game, is Jangbi, and his consistency leaves a lot to be desired. I mean really, at least Yellow was always interesting to watch - win or loss. I'd watch 10 TvTs before even one of Storks PvZs. | ||

You should really chill out, i havent seen so much hate towards a team and a player for a long time, its a matter of opinion and for me Samsung has enough players to be solid and a monster team, hell even watching FBH is fun just to see what he will do if he loses or wins. You voiced your opinion and we got the picture, but that much hate is way over the line. | ||
