Jangbi reached his 3rd finals in a row on a very short time plus being very good at pvz. luxury, good aggressive builds but probably lack alot in lategame mechanics vs jangbi. I thought jangbi was going to win, but he played pretty badly. | ||

So I don't like predicting, I'll just watch and hope for good games, worthy of a final. Dude you just make a couple of predictions right there and saying you don't like predicting? xD Anyway I think Fantasy won't be an easy pushover for Jaedong like people seem to think for the following reasons: - He's good at preparing for BoX matches. - He has much much more preparation time. - He's a strategic player, while IMO one of Jeadong relative weaknesses is adaptability. Bottom line is there's NO WAY this will be a 3-0 rape. Fantasy will definitely come up with some nice surprise strategies for the first 2 games. Can't wait  | ||

Can't wait Ya, I 100% agree with you on jaedong being bad against crazy builds. I mean Jaedong vs stork game 2 on sin chupung ryeon. Man good job Stork, he knew Jaedong's weakness and cheesed him, that turned out very well for stork for sure. | ||

Can't wait Fantasy need to change his tactic for against zerg. Building Valkyrie then go back to academy M&M isn't effective against zerg player with great macro skill. | ||

I thought jangbi was going to win, but he played pretty badly. "very good at PvZ" Please base this off something other than FakeSteve's PR, his PvZ is quite mediocre... I'd take Luxury's ZvP over JangBi's PvZ anytime, his series play is also superior. And I think that Luxury's lategame is just fine if he starts off with hydras, his lurkerling isn't that great.

How can anyone say Luxury wasn't the clear favorite? I don't understand at all. However, in this MU Jaedong is an even greater favorite, and I have full confidence in him winning 3-0. Fantasy might be able to steal a game with some kind of a creative mech build that involves JD being unlucky with scouting and guessing the build, otherwise I don't see him winning. I also don't see Fantasy winning against Jaedong if the game goes into the lategame without Fantasy gaining some kind of a great advantage in the early game with some kind of a cheesy harrass.

Consider that ZvZ is mostly about micro and adaptability and split-second decision-making. | ||

Jaedong has monster micro and contrary to what some have said, great adaptability. He will see Fantasy's 14cc and 3 hatch before pool, he will see Fantasy's 8rax and pull drones to kill the bunker. I cannot imagine a scenario where Fantasy wins. His mech is well-known, so Jaedong has plenty of time to prepare. Jaedong is already beastly against mnm, so no surprise there. The only chance Fantasy has is if he goes 10fact or 3star or something, basically something so cheesy it's off the charts. He could pull off one game like that (most likely the first game). | ||

On April 02 2009 23:34 Jaeden wrote: yeah, I completely agree. He has some sort of warrior madness See now you've done it. Now I have to whip out some marvel stuff. Thor in Warrior madness state: Defeated Beta Bill Ray (almost killed him) Defeated Silver Surfer(almost killed him) Defeated Both Adam Warlock with soul gem and Silver Surfer Defeated Infinity Watch that include Drax with Power gem. Tied with Thanos (but Thanos admitted that if Thor break from his Force field Thor will destroy Infinity Watch and Thanos.) But Odin later defeated Thanos in one on one. So I'd say. Jaedong is in warrior madness mode (almost--freaking smart but failure cheese). | ||
