This is probably the best ZvZ series I've ever watched.

Really surprised by that result. Was expecting Jaedong taking it 3:0 or 3:1... Not this. But I'm glad that Calm made it. I hope now that Iris will be the 2nd finalist.

i wanna think that jaedong was more focused on practicing for his matches against fantasy, and didnt put enough effort into this bo5...

I think the main reason I hate JD was the ZvZ dominance just seemed so unfair. The matchup is the weirdest in Starcraft by far; it's almost like a different game, so I disliked how he seemed to have such an advantage in tournaments and proleagues by basically having auto wins in the most annoying and least interesting matchup.

Glad to see that has eroded a little at least.



zvz is maybe the hardest match in all starcraft (tvz and zvt are too ) . the most stressing match , the most micro match , the most "one gling make the game" match .

you should love jaedong for that , he successed in the hardest match up and in the biggest way possible .

i just hate Zergs with bad zvz ( kwanro , effort , luxury .. ) .

i loved calm for a while now , even i cried this morning for my jaedong , calm really really really played well , REALLY better than effort will ever do . zvz is getting harder and harder this times , and i think there will be notable changes in the near future . one player dominance is getting more and more impossible .

lets see about OSL and next season .


ARE YOU FUCKING HIGH?

Effort has over 60% in EVERY matchup. He's beaten Jaedong in a BO3. He handily DEMOLISHED Great in the Ace match of the 2nd CJ-KHAN match. Effort's got great ZvZ (obviously not as good as JD, losing to him in the CJ-Oz matches), and he's got great everything. The only reason Calm is currently looking better is because he had a significantly easier road to the finals. What the fuck have you been smoking dude?


He is clearly too blinded by his fanboyism for calm to appreciate other zerg players as well. (Not to deny calm's great performance this series though)

I'm afraid that Jaedong might really be in a slump if he manages to lose to Fantasy tommorow. Jaedong should realize that practice efficiency is just as important as how much he practices. Sleeping less for practice might not have better results than if he sleep more and practice a bit less.


Apparently, he didn't read Boxer's biography where he learned that lesson for himself

Boxer's biography is like The Holy Bible and Boxer himself is Jesus Christ.

JD wasn't being a good child.

Such high standards for the Dong.

Oh, how the mighty have fallen. The case for Jaedong as Bonjwa is getting weaker and weaker.

I'm sure the Dong is spending all day today straightening up so he can rape fantasy.

Edit: And I think the key to Calm winning here was letting JD win the first match.

He can still win the OSL, which will be by all means amazing. But even if he is in the beginning of slump, it will be his first down point as a progamer till now, damn Jaedong is so consistent

Jae needs to stop playing the Friends and Family sc2 alpha, it's hurting his Broodwar game!
Chance favors the prepared mind.
