Kal is such an aggressive and imperfect little creature. The kid's got flair and style, much like bisu minus the intuition. I would hate to have him lose to stork Jr, very few protoss can play the way he can. His pvp is completely fucked up beyond reasonable analysis, which makes it all the more entertaining. Mechanically, he's on par with Jangbi maybe a little worse macro, but he's got the multitasking to match for it, much in the same way he managed to beat him 2 seasons ago with brutal harass and timing attacks.
Kal 3-1.
|
Map balance could be a factor. JangBi 3-1
|
Jangbi is going to take it. He'll put on his gangster smirk (?) and wipe Kal's name off the board.

Kal is a guy who does it for me. I was impressived by his play the first couple times I saw him and knew that he would make it big. I remember back in one of the MSL bracket contest, I literally fucked up every match up except for the final in which I predicted Jaedong vs. Kal. Well, it happened and he lost. I think Kal is feeling it again, and this time, he might take the title (most likely from Bisu). Kal fighting!
|
i think Kal has a cooler name. this is enough for him to deserve the honour of being pummelled by Bisu in the finals

I wonder if Kal will win on his 2nd MSL title appearance... That would throw everyone off. I like Kal. He is like Free, cept better... or is he??!?!

I like Kal so much but the best for him to collect in this MSL is the silver medal Someone must get his 3rd golden badge, remember?
|
I want Jangbi to win so he can choke in the finals vs Bisu
|
I dont really care who wins, since I like them equally, just hope they make a good series to watch. But I can guess Kal 3-2

i really dont care about either of them
|
THESE MAPS ARE IMBA FOR PVP. Seriously though, I don't like how Kal can be so unpredictable with his matches at times in terms of either playing brilliantly or messing up with a massive mistake. I hope Jangbi wins but after his series vs Kal 2 MSLs ago, he seems to be jinxed in that matchup even though he plays it well enough.

But on a serious note, positional imbalances could affect the outcome. We all know there are no 3 or 4 player maps that are perfectly positionally balanced.

Or maybe he thinks JangBi and Kal's styles are significantly different and one map could help Kal more because he's better with reavers or something and another could favor storm drops or cannon rushes and maybe JangBi is better at those or something. I don't really know what they're styles are like that well and if maps will matter I'm just dreaming up reasons for what he said.

The last time these two met JangBi was a one match-up wonder who had only beaten two other Protoss players: BackHo and GuemChi. Kal was on the rise with two great match-ups and an improving PvP repertoire.
Since then, JangBi however has grown into veritable powerhouse, with a 65+% win rate in each match-up since the MSL semi-final. Kal? He's stagnated, barely managing to win half his games.
Kal's ELO peak came right after his last games vs. JangBi - GOM Season 4 was his peak. JangBi's peak? Right now. Kal is the "creative" player that is liked despite unimpressive results. JangBi is the mechanically strong player, with nothing that stands out about him, he's just good all around.
Everything about it screams a JangBi walkover in my opinion.
|
basically this series will be kal throwing goofy ass builds at jangbi with heavy harass.
if jangbi holds it off he will crush kal. Kal can't keep up with jangbi's macro or big army control.
also lets hope kal doesnt get any "brilliant" ideas like a 14 nex again lol.
I actually like both these guys but they will get romped by Bisu/free anyway. (GO FREE)
|
GO JANBI, you gotta meet Free in the finals!
|
the banner looks awesome!
|
I can't say I'm overly excited about this semifinal, but as a player, Kal excites me a whole lot more than Jangbi does - therefor my vote has to go to him.
Gogo super-harass-protoss!
|
|
50 50 poll percent. Wow. Anyones game.
|
the games are too tough to predict.. both players are amazingly good, will come down to luck and how each player is feeling on the particular day. I also felt that kal vs stork was 50-50, although in normal circumstances I think it'd be more like 45-55, if stork had more time to practice for it.

Yes, although the first poster must have been kidding- positional imbalances are random, because the map positions are random.
We'll need to wait for someone like boxer (or shark O.o) to break the random part of the game engine for the starting locations xD

I think Kal would put up a more entertaining fight against Bisu or Free, so I'm rooting for him although I feel like Jangbi has a better chance of winning the semis.

if kal wins the msl, i'm not going to watch sc for a month

jangbi 3-0, it wont even be close.

Jangbi Take this MSL yeahhh!!!

Jangbi has supposedly been known as the best player in practice in Samsung (more than Stork and FBH) for a long time and is highly respected in the progaming community but has a problem with nerves on tv etc... I think he has slowly gotten over this over the last 6 months etc.. I don't know that for sure though. But what I am almost certain of is that JangBi is the better player. I hope he wins this.

Agreed. It seemed like as more time went on, Jangbi got control of his nerves, and managed to get into his practice groove for each match up. He came over some psychological hurdle and "suddenly" his pvt was great. Now "suddenly" his pvz is great. Hes 7-0 in MSL and tearing up things left and right. This is not a coincidence. Jangbi did not turn around his pvt, his pvz, or his pvp, he just, over time, felt more natural in these match ups. And now Jangbi's true capabilities can be shown. So despite past history between these two players, despite past official games of Jangbi's pvp- expect the unexpected. The real Jangbi could show up, and we will see some of the best pvp in a long time, or he could choke and play like an amateur.

Kal is the more interesting player IMO
|

Jangbi right now has done about the same as Jangbi in GOM 4, where he met Kal in the exact same fashion. Jangbi was not considered 'great' then for advancing to the MSL semis by beating Upmagic 3-0 in a series, and in the same fashion he should not be considered even good for beating Yarnc's zvp 3-0 (which is worse than Upmagics TvP was back then. really really bad). His PvT was later proven to be great over the course of proleague and his incredible game against Flash, and we may see his PvZ to be proven great when...he actually plays a good zerg!
The last time he played a good zerg was...07-06-04, when he played Jaedong (and lost of course). Jangbi is 13-1 in his last PvZs, which is a very stellar stat, but it fails to take into account that he's played Yarnc SEVEN times, and his 'highest' quality opponent in that list is either Shark or Magma lol. I'm not saying it's bad at all, because he's doing exactly what bonjwa Bisu would do, raping a bunch of nobodies, but until he plays that good Zerg it's a shot in the dark how good he actually is.
If you go through his overall stats he has played these notable opponents since June...win over Midas (not sure when Midas started sucking, but Jangbi's PvT has been quite good for awhile now.), a loss to Best, two losses to Mind, a win over a slumping Flash, another loss to Best, two losses and a win to BACKHO, a win over Iris, a win over Free, a loss to Sea, a loss to Best, and a win over slumping Stork. That's not particularly impressive.
This is the second time Jangbi has lucked his way to the semis with a creampuff bracket, and I hope it's the last. Seriously, this guy is robbing us of a Bisu vs Free finals or a Jaedong vs Flash the last time (when both were at their best) by lucking out with these absurd brackets. Now maybe if he lands in that hard bracket he could prove that he deserves a top 4 placing, but the only conclusion we can draw before this semi is that he's very lucky and hasn't gotten a chance to prove himself yet. Screw MSL for removing double elim.
Jangbi last time versus Kal showed great mechanical play, which is what nerves would normally affect, but also a complete lack of strategical planning, which is necessary for series wins, while Kal showed some smart play overall to take it home 3-2 (that's also how he won versus Stork). That is not affected by nerve, sorry. If Jangbi wants to win, he's going to have to come with brains or strategies from Stork this time; the other chance is to pray that Mr.inconsistent Kal has a bad day this time.
Basically the outcome is in Kal's hands. Who will come? Good Kal or bad Kal? That's too hard to predict -_-
|
United States13896 Posts
heh i'm looking at it from the complete opposite perspective. JangBi is the better player with more potential - either he'll find himself in his first big series since the last MSL semi-final, or he'll choke. JangBi is the one Korean's liken to being god-like, while they call Kal the joker. It just seems like there is a complete disparity in the way Koreans are looking at this player and the way most people here are assessing his skill is unbelievable.
I don't think Koreans would call this kid "Huhneunim" or whatever if he's just "lucking" his way to the semis. I just don't buy it.
|
People need to be reminded how awesome JangBi is by rewatching all his games vs Flash (forcing flash into a draw during a time when Flash was imba), and how he stormed NaDa so badly.. for a moment NaDa thought he was playing Zeus.

anyway I think Jangbi will take this... his recent results have been more impressive, and I think the psychological advantage will carry him through.

god I cant stand buffoons who think that a 60% win ratio in two match ups, and two semi final appearances is in any way shape or form 'luck'. Yeah, he hasn't gone against greats in his pvz, so we can't say hes one of the great in the match up, we can look at his play and know it is very very good, and treat it as such, just like anyone else with a ridiculous record like that. Hell, how is strategical planning not effected by nerves? Everything is effected by nerves. Fucking Bisu built two of the same building because he was nervous. You may prepare a good build order, have good micro tricks in mind, you may evaluate your opponent properly, it doesn't matter if you get nervous and it completely fails you.
That post was complete trash, in short.

Jangbi did this to Chalrenge in the PL finals. Chalrenge did this to Bisu in the PL semis. 4-gate timing attack is not that out of the ordinary.

The other races have got to start picking up the slack. I'm getting so sick of PvP. Especially since it's my least favorite match-up to begin with.
I'm rooting for Jangbi and he has the best person on earth to practice with for this march, Stork.

Mechanics is everything lumped together that everyone should know how to do individually- Multitasking, micro, macro (those are the big 3)
Micro is obviously making every unit fight at it's best, by making up for holes in the sc AI
Macro is making sure you have the proper number of factories, raxes, w/e to use up all of your minerals as they come in, so that you can have the maximum number of units (as T and P, Z is different)
Multitasking is doing both at the same time. So if you can both micro and macro well, then you have good multitasking ability.
|
|
multitasking can also be the ability to micro units at different locations at almost the same time.

Also true. Although in my mind this is linked to micro, but it would also fall under the catagory of multitasking.

yeah, i mean.. if you drop someone and at the same time attack his front, while you defend vs drops at 2 locations at the same time.. you got pretty good multitasking. Thats why, if you are a great multitasker, you should harass your opponent at different locations to make his macro suffer due to his lesser multitakingability.

Same here, but I liquibetted Kal. I do believe that Kal has a better chance of creating an entertaining finals, due to Jangbi's nerves. I think either of them would get rolled by free or Bisu, but Kal might make it more entertaining. I suppose we'll find out. =)

my god this match is the definition of mirror, buildings are even placed in the same proximity and units pop out at the same time, both chasing probes at the same pace

aww, i was waiting for the goons to kill eachother at the same time so that we can continue this mirror.
Jangbi is mining out the minerals in front of his neutral temple backdoor entrance, and started his robo as well as a second gate. Kal hasn't placed a second gate down, it looks like he might go for the expand instead?

obs first going down for jangbi, he's worried about dt's from kal. jangbi sneaks his probe through the backdoor to try and scout, but a goon is going to stop him from getting any useful information

kal starts expo at the same time as jangbi, both have about the same number of units. kal's reaver harass is stopped easily with 2 goons, jangbi loses reaver defending his nat, but has a higher goon count

kal is really far ahead now- about 12 goons for kal vs 0 for jangbi. Jangbi is trying to snipe probes to keep it even- he gets like 3? enough to make the 2 goons probably pay off for themselves.

Templar archives up for Jangbi. Kal mobilizes his dragoon force but pulls back. Still two base to two.

Are you guys using the Daum or GOM stream? There's no lag on the GOM stream for me, but the Daum one is always unwatchably laggy for me.

about 1.5 control groups of goons for kal, moving out towards jangbi's base. Jangbi adds a 5, 6th, and 7th gate, has about a control of goons + reaver. how many gates does kal have?

jangbi sneaks a dt inside of kal's base with his speedy shuttle, kal dosen't have shuttle speed. Jangbi's going to use the dt to deny the third.
kal's attempt at reaver harass is shut down again by jangbi keeping some goons stationed at his third.

jangbi tries to pull out some bisu ninja skills and .... it's kinda stopped? but kal's shuttle is stopped even harder, completely denied.

Big army for Kal mobilizing. Dragoon heavy army, but my stream dies slightly again. Another drop coming for Jangbi, this time with HTs. Will be spotted by probe. Good recognition and reaction time by Kal saves majority of his probes.

storm drob from jangbi gets about 10 probes total max, jangbi more importantly keeps his speed shuttle.
Ka'ls army looks more goon heavy, jangbi's looks more zeal heavy.

We've got a great PvP game here. Jangbi looking to move out, but is completely denied as Kal spots with observers and is charging in. STORMS GO OFF ALL OVER. And Jangbi is getting mauled and assraped so bad.

jangbi lost maybe 1 ht, I think he still has 1 more. jangbi moves out, kal has a soft contain on jangbi and is trying to spot the point when jangbi's army is most spread out. habgvugbi is trying to run instead of fight, kal gets a lot of free hits. Storms going off everywhere, but jangbi's army just dosen't look big enough.
jangbi pushed back to his nat, kal takes his fourth expansion at 9

Big storm drop on Kal's nat gets quite a few probes. Jangbi with great harrassment, but his unit and army micro lacks in some aspects.

now kal is low on probes and jangbi took his 4th in full production mode

jangbi gets his third up, he's going to need to make sure he can defnd the attack from kal that's sure to come on his third. jangbi's reaver still lives, kal pops like 3 dt, so we'll see if those do any damage.

Kal should be disappointed. There was literally one point in which he could have barged right in and dealed heavy damage to Jangbi's nat.

THanks for the LR water, appreciate it.

Well, Kal certainly threw that game away. He beat Jangbi and then had like 30 goons left over. He could have just ran into his natural and annihilated him, but he waited and ran his units halfway across the map (to try to deal with the shuttle harass?), and then came back, but then there was a reaver with a shuttle and two high templars... he still might have been able to just run into that and bust it anyways.
Then he didn't build reavers... you'd think the amount of slow zealots he caught earlier might have tipped him off to the fact that Jangbi was going to get a lot of zealots... but I guess not.

Jangbi seems to have store his eco at the big battle while Kal used all his money. So that determines the late push by jangbi.

I wonder if they'll show a replay, but I think the fact that kal was a base up was negated by the ht and the reaver kills.

Jangbi just totally outplayed Kal after he was so behind because of that zealot leg failure.

You could tell that Jangbi had a case of the nerves. Lots of mistakes... and what's with the slowlots? He pulled a Stork there with the lack of leg speed.
But Jangbi, when he's playing well is just plain sick. And that's why I hope he wins. Because Jangbi at his best can give Bisu a fight.
Kal? Not so much.

Great harass by Jangbi to come back. Kal made a textbook flank on Jangbi during the first attack, but he should have had enough sense to follow through and counter when he had significantly superior numbers.

Putting the reaver in front ensures that it's scarabs won't get blocked I guess. It's in way more danger as a result though.

kal seems to have trouble with unit mix. He always seems to be ahead in psi, but by the time the battle comes, he never does very well.

jangbi is about to show kal how to do a real storm drop
|
|
Wow. Let's see... bigger army, successful storm drop, let's eat 3 huge storms on nearly every last goon and lose miserably. Good call Kal.
He should have just run away.
|
Ouch. Jangbi killed all of Kal's main probes with a storm drop.
|
Huge probe massacre at the hands of Jangbi's storms there.
|
|
haha, what a joke is this storm :D
kal will loose again

kal trying to move out from his backdoor entrance, jangbi comes in with some amazing storm drops. anyone see how many kills that got?
|
WOAH JANGBI RIPS KALS PROBES!

amazing storm drop from jangbi, killed many many probes

real storm drop: mission accomplished.

Kal has way more units somehow.

time for JangBi to be out of position haha

United States17042 Posts
jangbi just trying to buy time now to wait for his econ advantage to kick in, storms going off everywhere as a big battle is fought. jangbi once again looks like he has less psi, and he actually loses this battle. Kal trying to press home the advantage, and drive jangbi into a contain, which succeeds.
|
Kal pushes Jangbi back, doing some damage to his 3rd base.
|
United States17042 Posts
jangbi's now stuck inside of his base, kal I don't think knows about jangbi's third. now he found it, and jangbi takes the opportunity to try to move out.
|
Seems pretty even to me now. I have no idea how that happened.

wtf just happened, how is kal ahead now with 3 base and shutting down jangbi's 3rd... wtf??
|
United States17042 Posts
jangbi carelessly loses his shuttle, somehow it looks like jangbi has many less units than kal. Kal has taken his third in the upper right hand corner of the map, jangbi hasn't bothered to save his third. Kal is trying to take his fourth on the right hand side of the map at 2
|
|
United States17042 Posts
9 gate now for kal, with 3 bases (fourth just went up), both armies are going to clash again in the middle, wih jangbi being out of position. Somehow using his spread force...he tries to fight, kal pushes back jangbi's army.
|
How the fuck is Jangbi so far behind now?
|
Wow, what's going on Jangbi? It's like he forgot to macro.
|
United States17042 Posts
kal finally takes down jangbi's third with the 2 goons, which means that jangbi is officially behind a base.

LoL wtf is this. Jangbi retreats and suddenly he is stuck in base. edit: my Yaoyuan stream is so behind -.-

I love Kal, but he's making even more boneheaded slip ups than usual...
But that last game... Jangbi does nothing all that wrong that I can see, then he's losing by quite a bit? Whaaaaaat. Kal would be so good if he didn't throw away games.

the choke scoreline is 1-1, i bet Bisu is licking his lips right now.
|
Wait, so first Jangbi raped Kal's probes, then destroyed his army with storms. Then takes his 3rd and then kal has like double his army. 4 zealots isnt that much, so ... Jangbi choked again >_>
|
BTW, I actually predict Free to beat Bisu, heard it here first!
|
Jangbi was up a base and had stormed like twenty of Kal's probes. But for some reason he tries to cross the center bridges before his extra gateways kick in and just gets rolled because his units are way out of position. Kal pressed his advantage, killed Jangbi's third while taking his two northeast bases, and contained Jangbi to death. GG.

How did I just read "Clubday online" as "Combat-ex online"?
The next game, I predict Kal to gain a massive advantage early on, forget storm and lot speed, and suicide 8 HTs into Jangbis army and lose. (It's his turn)

jangbi was way out of position I think, which is why he just lost that game. He should have been way ahead, but instead he just tried to press a small advantage, instead of waiting for a much larger one.

both kal's and jangbi's scouting probes scout in the wrong direction, but jangbi's gets there first.
jangbi stops his probe on the wrong ramp, hoping that kal thinks that jangbi is in the 6 base. Cute.

it didn't work long enough to actually do anything. The best case would have been if jangbi would have held the ramp long enough so that kal actually sent a unit in the wrong direction, allowing jangbi to counter. Didn't happen, so it ended up not mattering.

jangbi is going to be in trouble if he decides to go obs first again, but he gets the robo and the obs at the same time. shuttle is already out, now to see which one he chose to build.

jangbi adding 2 more gates, reaver about to pop for jangbi. First obs heading towards kal's base for jangbi

Shuttle speed done for Jangbi, he's on the way to Kal's base with a reaver.

range still isn't done for jangbi oddly enough, expo about 3/4 done for kal, but he has no robo. Speed done on shuttle for jangbi

it looks like jangbi is waiting for that second reaver, kal is ready for the reaver harass with 3 goons sitting in his main base, as well as a pylon to scout the incoming shuttle.

jangbi comes in with 2 reavers, they fail to get shots off that do any damage.

Jangbi busts out of Kal's contain.

jangbi is trying to break out of his contain, it looks like he equalized goon numbers- he only loses 2-3 goons in breaking out of his natural.
|

goons shooting uphill are so bad, as jangbi is finding out when fighting kal. he's going to be able to take down ka'ls force though.
|
Wow that was a close reaver save. XD
|
United States17042 Posts
jangbi loses a reaver carelessly imo, but he's still got more goons than kal does, right in front of kal's base

Damn Jangbi almost won.
jangbi loses a reaver carelessly imo, lol 1 hp reaver vs goons he can't see.

jangbi is trying to take out kal's nat, but fails to. 2 goons left for jangbi, with more on the way, only 3 gates for both players. Jangi has his natural up and running as well. Jangbi holding a soft contain on kal, with kal spread in front of his natural.
|
JangBi's got stupid scarabs...
But he still looks rather impressive.
|
Kal has a definite econ advantage, Jangbi needs to inflict some damage.
|
United States17042 Posts
jangbi, coming in again with a new reaver to get some harass in, keeps both his shuttle and his reaver after doing a decent amount of damage

jangbi killed quite a few probes at kal's main!

|
Kal's DTs arrive at Jangbi's two bases at the exact same time. But Jangbi pulls probes at both at the exact same time as well. Pretty sick.

jangbi's first zeal is headed into kal's base, kal has his first zeal out as well. kal spots the cheese I think? but he lets his probe go right on by

kal gets up his cannon to defend against the zeals, and jangbi has cut probes, but jangbi is only at...12 probes proaprobably, which kal is almost at.

kal can't produce any more goons, jangbi has used his zeals to creat a zeal prison for any goon that pops out. sick.

Well, that was a rape. The wallin was pretty sweet, at least.
|
Kal cheesed out of the MSL!
|
Jangbi... at the finals. =( I feel hollow inside.
|
this happens when a player is just better than the other, nice preparation from jangbi

bedtime for me as well, good job jangbi. Hardcore. I wonder if the 4th game cheese was planned because of the map, or if it was spur of the moment.
|
oh shit! I was totally prepared to watch a 5th game until I realized jangbi was the proxy gate guy!! aaahhhhh... shit I'm wide awake
|
|
cannons .. lolz..
what about not building a core before your 2nd pylon on such kind of a map.. !? and.. well.. T_T .. omg
''ggs''

|
That was pretty pimp from Jangbi. Good series.

there is absolutely no reason to think that jangbi wont choke in the finals so the winner will come 100% from the other side of the bracket
|
Hi, my name is Kal. I don't need a second gateway or a shield battery to defend against 2 gate with 1 gate goon.

nal_ra's job is commentating, not MCing. you don't see him talk on camera because that isn't his role. that's what the middle guy is supposed to do. about 50% of the COMMENTARY you hear in game is kangmin. but you are so ignorant you don't even realize that it's him talking and you assume that he "sucks" when you're the one at fault.

except for the fact that he seems to have figured out how to shake off his nerves. He just showed some really good pvp in 3 out of the four games that were played.

If Jangbi wins this MSL...

Yes, I suspect Jangbi may have nerves come the finals, but we should all hope he shakes it so we get a better finals!
|
On a side note, Kal should really get rid of his glasses. They make his otherwise manly appearance transform him into looking like an upperclass twit.

Yeah really, damn. He looks ten times better without them. It really gets rid of that "I play videogames for a living" look he has when he's wearing them.

Sad that one of them must lose, but damn. Jangbi, what potential you have. Just a little little more work on your large army control, and you are going to rip shit up.

Yeah I'm quite sure that's where that's headed.

Seriously jangbi is playing good atm. winner from other bracket might win, but only if its bisu. Free would get smashed imo, and he's like 2-6 pvp the last 8 games.

Oh sweet, I upgraded to a chogoling today.

secondly, i'm not even a kangmin fan. he's not in my top 15 or 20 progamers. sure i have respect for him, but i hate protoss users in general.
are you angry because i called you out on your ignorance? don't stay stupid things if you can't handle the feedback.

stop the angry mob ok? dont make sucha big deal out of it.. hype jangbi instead.

+ 08-10-19 GOM Classic Season 2 (Badlands) Destination (P)TT Win + 08-10-19 GOM Classic Season 2 (Jungle World) Chupung-Ryeong (P)TT Win + 08-10-05 Shinhan Proleague .. (Space Platform) Andromeda (P)Pure Loss + 08-06-29 Shinhan08 Proleague (Desert) Colosseum (P)Pure Loss
The only recent loss was to Pure, I don't think the other ones matter since they were back when Free was mediocre. And I think he didn't play that good until after around halfway of October anyway, so I'd say that none of those losses really count as an indicator of his current skill.

if jangbi takes this KHAN will have 2 starleaguewins this season;) NICE.. i also feel good for jangbi coz noone cheered for him in the round of 8, all attention was on stork. I hope JangBi wins

yeah, but some ppl have said that whoever wins from the other side of the bracket will destroy jangbi/kal. But i dont think Free's pvp is that good, or atleast not proven to be very good yet. Lets hope for a great finals anyway.

I guess this settles all debates about whether or not Kal won against Stork fair and square. If you lose to Jangbi's PvP 1-3, then there's no way you'd win against Stork if he was actually preparing for the series.
You know, if Free beats Bisu, and Jangbi beats Free, would that be considered the "cheapest" MSL win ever? We're talking about getting out of your group w/o meeting Flash, then killing Memory, Tempest, Kal, and Free.

I seriously can't understand why 7 ppl get so worked up after what to me was nothing.

Im just a bit dissapointed at the fact how bad Kal handled that 2 gate cheese.. And building a forge to go for cannons was absurd. And if u do so at least protect it with your probes wenn its done and when its being built dont let kill u 7 probes with 1 zealot because u just let your probes stand around a warping cannon the opponennt wasnt that interested in killing anymore, anyway..

Actually, JangBi would have stood a very good chance against stork. They are team mates and JangBi might be more comfortable vs Stork in a live game (he did beat him an OSL or 2 back aswell, but Stork was shaky then).

Oops, getting messed up there with FBH for a minute. Actually even less impressive then, since Yarnc's ZvP < Tempest PvP.

I think both Free and Bisu are capable of beating JangBi straight. So my guess is that the winner will come from the other bracket!
Anyway, go Bisu!

My liquibet rank just went way up.

just got done watching the games
game 1 jangbi's tech was always a step ahead, and despite losing a lot of units in the mid game Jangbi's macro kept him alive long enough to wear down his opponent. kal basically forfeited the game after he completely gave up on defending the harass or doing any harass himself. he played much more aggressively towards the mid-games but just couldn't close it out without even a semblance of any harass. jangbi played well in many aspects, although not without his faults, but kal just played poorly. jangbi's nerves seemed to be present early on, but he settled in and found a groove, while kal just looked like a train wreck.
game 2 seemed to be going strongly in Jangbi's favor after those massive storm drops on kal's main, but then kal retaliated by storming like 4-5 of jangbi's templars in the battle at the middle of the map, turning jangbi away abruptly. i found this game very well played overall by both players, with Jangbi harassing more effectively and displaying some beautiful storms, but kal's battle micro paying off in big ways. Jangbi essentially made one mistake the entire game and kal capitalized on it. really enjoyable game with some amazing storms.
after jangbi distracted kal with the reaver drop and he broke out of the contain in game 3 Jangbi never looked back. Just superior reaver/shuttle micro throughout as he contained Kal long enough to get a deciding advantage. Exceptional play by JangBi this game imo.
game 4, well it was a predictable proxy gate strat that kal failed to predict in time. gosu use of pylons to trap the goons 
despite his one mistake in game 2 jangbi looked like the far superior player throughout this series. people really need to stop doubting him so much - he's got just as much a chance of taking this MSL as bisu/free does.
Kal is reminding me more and more of the protoss version of UpMagiC - a creative player whose mechanics just are strong enough to tussle with the big dogs. Obviously he's better than Up ever really was, but the similarities are still there imo.

Free vs Bisu is pretty much the final now.
Fricken' jangbi. ARGH.
|

If JangBi wins the MSL in a final against free I will pretend it never happened
|
Not surprised.. With stork as a close practice partner, every other P just seems like a noob.
|
ARghh....I go to sleep and what happens?? Kal loses!!
Dammit Kal, how long until you get a title of your own?

OMG JangBi survives?!?!? NO
Now his elimination will be up to Bisu.

jangbi's now the favourite to win the MSL.. but I can def see Bisu or Free beating the guy. Everyone is really closely matched imo ^^
|
No, I think Bisu is the favorite. He is the definition of 'clutch,' and has excellent nerves. He has been here before, and prevailed.
Also, his PvP is pretty much even with Stork's (just slightly worse, maybe). If Free manages to beat Bisu, Free would be the favorite I think (having proven himself).
Still, it should be pretty even, as long as both Jangbi and Free have control of their nerves. Here's to an excellent final!

Here we go...Bisu vs. Jangbi finals...

I can't believe I rooted for Jangbi in the poll but voted for Kal...

Question: If JangBi wins the MSL can he finally get his TLPD picture changed to something recent?

What, you don't like plump JangBi?

why does everyone think Jangbis elo peak, two semi final appearances, massive streaks etc, are all luck and hes actually b team material?
It's fucking ridiculous. Its hate against stork times a thousand.

You know, if Free beats Bisu, and Jangbi beats Free, would that be considered the "cheapest" MSL win ever? We're talking about getting out of your group w/o meeting Flash, then killing Memory, Tempest, Kal, and Free.
I think Kal had a pretty good shot at going up 2-0 the way the games went. He had a huge window in game 1 that he just blew because he waited, and game 2 he turned around a tough situation. Then he could be the one pulling the weird crap, which is what he is good at, instead of it being forced down his throat.
I mean seriously... I just rewatched that. He had ~25 goons, 4 zealots, and a few templar (probably without enough energy for storm) against like 5 goons (he killed two before the real engagement began), 1 reaver, 3 zealots, and 2 templars (one of which already used its storm, the other was probably empty). He sniped one of the templar pretty quickly too, and then he retreats!?!? It didn't seem like he was aware of the harass before then, so he didn't move back because of that. My mind is just boggled why he didn't end it there. The game was over, any harass Jangbi could have done wouldn't have mattered when he started plowing into his main. Ugh.
Anyways, Kal's PvP isn't that bad and on a good day he can beat anyone. On a bad day... he throws away games. Actually... it probably depends more on the particular game than the day. >_>

how jangbi one game 1 is beyond me
|
Just watched these games and all I can say is "WOW!" This was a GOOD series.
I don't know how Jangbi came back in game 1, probably due to his amazing harassment with templar (i counted like 10-15 probe kills). Then I don't know how he lost in game 2 even after those super psi storms. The cheese at the end was cute too 
I gotta say, Jangbi is good. Really good. I don't know if Kal was just playing poorly but Jangbi could seemingly harass whenever he wanted to and he kept Kal stuck inside his base defending with a lot of wasted goons quite often. Really sick play, I hope Jangbi goes on to win.

I'm VERY happy to see so many great Protoss in such a relatively short time span.. too bad Reach/rA died (retired) too soon to see their followers in this golden age xD

Reach is going into air force ace. We could see him play well again (maybe).

Game 4 is definitely PP2008 material.

Is that Jangbi on the right? Hard to make out. Hell, is that FBH?

Yeah, but don't you think the fact that he absolutely owned Jangbi on the first TWO freaking major encounters, and STILL lost, say something about his ability/game-sense PvP?
I was expecting for much of the game for Kal to just gather his forces and 1a2a3a into Jangbi's base. And instead he does nothing while Jangbi just dropped storms all over his mineral line, come back from his deficit, and owns with a better army composition.

they were actually up on the nevake account almost immediately after the games were played. i remember coming back from my 8:00 am class and the first few games were already up - a welcome surprise. Sooo there's almost zero basis to bith here.
