Jaedong just adapted hella well to Fantasy and Fantasy could not do the same. All the games were very one-sided which made it even more painful to get fantasy get dominated on the last three. Seemed to me that he was learning fantasy's timings on the first two games and then just made his units a couple seconds earlier/later than standard. Can't believe fantasy went mech all 5 games, he should have like went MnM on game 5 to throw off jaedong T_T | ||

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. How about variety? It was all micro all fast paced for all 5 games. Don't you want at least one game to be a macro TvZ? | ||

Edit b/c I forget to insult Jaedong: Curse you Jaedong, go fall down and break your back/wrist. | ||

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 think fantasy was banking on jaedong spending some money ona hydra den and getting hydras. woulda delayed just enough Why would he bother, knowing that after going for a dropship fantasy would have almost nothing in his base to defend against mutalisks? Valkyrie timing is already *extremely* perilous, as it takes forever to get enough out to be effective on their own. There's a significant timing window for a zerg to exploit. By going dropship with vultures first fantasy just increased that timing window ad infinitum, completely screwing himself over. Same with game 4. What did he expect would happen while going 2 port wraiths...on *one* base?! Wraiths are so expensive, so where was he going to find the economy to build ground troops as well? | ||

Fantasy's mechanics aren't that great first off, boxer had very little to do with fantasy's development. he was just as good a year ago as he is now. and what's wrong with having oov as a teacher? it's not like oov is in the booth with him. that argument about boxer/oov being the sole reasons for fantasy's success is retarded. so is the whole thing about SKT and Flash. Imagine if CJ bought Jaedong. Imagine if all 6 dragons were on the same team. Imagining that kind of crap is stupid. Oh boy Jaedong+CJ Entus would be soooo beautiful though, finally my favourite player and favourite team would unite, so Id never have too root against jaedong ever again ^^ On April 05 2009 02:56 3nickma wrote: Damn watching games 3, 4 and 5 again is just fantastic ![]() And Jaedong has one crazy mom! ![]() Waiting for the commentary to watch the entire series again.

Genius, it's a great idea to switch to mech after dark swarm and plague are out! ? what are you even talking about, which game did Flash go m&m -> mech?? If youre talking about the last game they played in the WL playoffs than thats bs, Flash went SK Terran that game, and later on added vultures to his army which isnt that unsual for sk terran and isnt exactly going mech... oh boy im still so happy xD | ||

Not really, but I can appreciate the desire for variety. Fantasy's MnM used to be pretty good (I haven't seen him use it recently though), but I wouldn't put it up against Jaedong. I'd rather see a close series than one where fantasy throws away a game trying to go toe to toe with Jaedong in the late game. The underdog needs to fight on his terms, where he's comfortable. That's what Fantasy did and it kept the series close. If this were Flash vs Jaedong and there were no long bio games, I'd be totally with you, because that's where Flash shines, but I didn't miss it at all in this series. And late game mech is just blehh in general. | ||
