According to Reach, he is the fastest learner he has ever seen. He start bw only like 2/3 years ago. Infact, his bw history knowledge is so limited, he didn't even know what the map Guillotine was.

Wow, the first game was fucking horrific.

You deserve your pain for going to sleep during an OSL final.

Bisu[about JD]=I was scared (laughs). The force emanating from his facial expression was so manly that I was even a little jealous.

Genius, it's a great idea to switch to mech after dark swarm and plague are out!

these strats are for winning, not for entertainment. late game woulda spelt disaster for jd cuz he had such few drones in some of the games. dnt see if he got more later on but thats what it showed. if fantasy defended jds attacks, there wouldve been no late game. i think fantasy just got too predictable and let jd adapt.

What's your point? All I said was that these games weren't as entertaining as they could be and lacked any epic lategame clashes. I never called any strategies bad because they weren't entertaining and it is because of Fantasy that none of the games went to lategame because of his builds which was tailored to damage Jaedong early.


I thought the games were very entertaining. I'd much rather see varied strategies, and fast paced action than 2 players sitting on their thumbs macroing for 15 minutes and deciding the game in one big battle. Your description of entertainment doesn't resonate with me at all.

2 hatch Muta > all. At least if we take these finals to be evidence.

God that last game sucked so badly. Fantasy didn't even have an armory by the time JD had his mutas out. And game 4's 1 base 2 port wraith against 2 hatch muta? The HECK? Even if he took out the mutas what was he going to do about the ground forces? Take out Bisu, ruin a dream OSL Finals matchup, and choke miserably. Way to go Fantasy. Now let's watch as you return to a mediocre Proleague player with a below .500 average.

I actually did the opposite. ROFL.

I woke up 2 hours late but coincidentally in time for the 5th match.

just caught the vods.....i'm seriously blown away.

i thought fantasy had the series for sure after he went up 2-0, and then again when he had the double starports + in base fact. I still believe jaedong won that game

Well, now that I watched the VODs I can say that those finals rocked. Fantasy builds were great, but Jaedong ended catching up with him and then overruning him. I think that fifth match showed a big problem with this Valkyrie build Fantasy has been perfecting recently: early aggression after the first vulture is dead pays very well. Two hatch mutas + scourges to pick the vessels + ling attacking the front door really demolished Fantasy.

Awesome. Hope Jaedong and zergs in general keep doing good next season.
perfecting the art of five pool forever

Well I just watched all the games, and it was pretty epic, but not THAT epic. Mech zvt is good I guess, but good old fashioned mnms vs lurkers is the best. Comeback was amazing, but not up to GGPlay standards probably because of mech. The lack of defilers and ultras were sort of a downside as well. Good shit Jaedong on winning, but I don't really feel hyped =/ Bleh........too spoiled from GGPlay vs Iris and Savior vs Nada I guess.

How would that be good? Wasting money on upgrades and barracks only to switch.

When JD won i really felt he deserved to win this OSL, especially after his emotional speech . He is the #1 zerg now for sure.
Nachos?
