Just watched the series. I thought Jaedong was very shaky in the first game and was on his way to a quick exit from the OSL. Fortunately he managed to pull it together and get back to his customary style of 3-1 victories.
Zero fighting.

How are all games crazy good?

Jaedong fucking cheesed the last 2 games, and I respect him even less now. I mean c'mon 4 pool and next game all in lings again and Fantasy made some weird wall and Jaedong got very lucky.

At least Jaedong knows how to be lame, whereas Fantasy probably would have won if the last games were straight up.

And yeah I'm kinda speaking in rage but still I think the last games were very lame.


lol. Since when is 9 pool speed cheese? Its just an aggressive opening, a standard T opening can perfectly defend against it. Yeah lets keep complaining about how Fantasy probably would have won if it was straight up when Fantasy's wins over Jaedong are more from cheese than Jaedong's wins over Fantasy ^__^


Bring up my old post:

First of all, TvT finals is alot more boring than ZvZ finals, and it'll be good if all your douchebags don't watch because then the stream won't be as laggy

Fantasy cheesed JD with bunker rushes constantly in the finals and Zerg cheese like 4 pool is extremely risky and easy to defend against, while Terrans get a shitload of options to cheese Z and its not even that all-in.

Stop crying, T is suppose to win verses Z because of balance problems but one time that it doesn't, you guys cry to death

ZvZ is the most boring match-up to a lot of people.

I really hoped that Fantasy would be able to pull it off with all that momentum and help of his coaches. Was looking forward to see Yarnc's ZvT against Fantasy. Would have been an incredible final.

I am especially disappointed by game 3. I thought Fantasy will be able to defend it after he bult that simcuty but then Jaedong destroyed that freaking bunker in a spectacular fashion... I wonder what would have happened had Fantasy won game 3...

"A lot of people" who say this turn out to be mostly Terrans. Would you rather watch an action-packed, micro-fest 10 minute game or would you rather watch a 30 minute game with slowwwww tanks that take forever to siege and re-locate with multiple bases and macro macro

ZvZ is not boring matchup at all ... but you can say games are kinda fast so 5 games can be done for like 30-60 min.

I find tvt and even pvp more boring than zvz.

"TvT Finals is a lot more boring than ZvZ finals"

What a joke. The TvT matchup was pretty much built for the finals. Some of the best games ever have been TvTs. Flash vs UpMagic from Batoo, Flash vs FBH from Proleague, UpMagic vs Light game 3 from WCG. All of them epic, all of them better as game 5 of a finals than a ZvZ could ever be.

Hahaha, stupid, conceited, cocksure T1 fanboys, you got OWNED! You were WRONG! YOU GOT DESTROYED! (Only directing this to those who made JD out to be a pathetic has-been and made idiotic anti-Z or JD remarks in general). But man, I swear, like 70% of the SKT fanbase is comprised of swinish braggarts who think that being fans of (arguably) the strongest proleague team will ensure that they're right in making absurdly contemptuous remarks and wild predictions about players who are facing a member of the SKT team when the match hasn't even been decided yet.

Man, I loved the build up to the moment when JD was four pooling, the "foh pouh!" from the commentators, ah man. Jaedong so vindicated himself when he showed that dirty rat Fantasy how to do a REAL cheese. I'm sure Fantasy took notes hahaha. But perhaps even more amusing was when he surrounded the spawning site of the Marines and Vultures and ensnared them in both of the last two games, just completely outplayed and utterly humiliated Fantasy.

I wish Jaedong had done a celebration when he went up on the stage to toss the hat by pulling out a picture of Fantasy's face, showing it to the audience, then dropping it on the floor and moonwalking over it. OWNED!!!

ZvZ doesn't scale.
TvT does.

When it's two mediocre players battling it out in a random PL match, TvT is atrocious. I'll take a ZvZ over that anytime. At least it'll be fast and not too boring.

But in a SL finals bo5, with so much at stake, and two players one can reasonably expect to be A or S-Class, ZvZ just doesn't cut it anymore, whereas TvT can become absolutely brilliant. Did you watch the MSL semis? Calm played brilliantly and Jaedong played solid although he lost. But can these games be called "epic" in any way? Not really. And I fear it's going to be the same vs Yarnc, unless some miracle happens.

ZvZ doesn't scale. It's rarely atrocious. It's rarely great either. Overall, it sucks for finals. :/

As usual, personal opinion, etc. My favorite mirror is PvP anyway.

I can't help but laugh at the people raging at Jaedong for 9 pooling.

I mean, come on. Nine pool is cheese? Jaedong went mass lings because Fantasy relied on his stupid wall to get into mech ASAP. Had Fantasy spawned in a position where his vultures and marines didn't spawn in a retarded position, Jaedong could have easily teched into mutalisks or hydralisks, and he would have been just fine.

I swear that people will call anything other than 12 hatch into 3 hatch mutalisks cheese nowadays. Didn't you guys expect this at some point? Starcraft builds are getting greedier and greedier every season; there has to be some way for a Zerg player to keep Terran players real.

Oh, and if anyone's keeping track, it's quite ironic and funny how there were no moderators threatening posters with suspensions in the Grand Finals thread when SKT won for rubbing it in the Oz fans faces. It'd be nice if there was a little more fairness around here.

The fanboys are becoming more aggressive. The haters need to use safer BOs.

TL always seems slow to note a change. Like people will say Flash is slumping a week or two after he stops slumping. This happened in the MSL yesterday too.

Amazing series from Jaedong.

If both Yarnc and JD are on their game in the finals it should be fantastic.

Actually, Zergs have been sacrificing Econ for Aggressive Play (3 hatch to 2 hatch) in ZvT, Protoss has been relatively static in terms of opening....1 gate core has been common for a while now in PvT, its only Terrans in TvZ that has started using greedy builds because they can wall-in at Nat/choke and have this convienient ability called repair that lets them protect their wall with almost little to zero units while other races WILL get punished if enemy attacks them when they're playing greedy

Typical ignorant T player. First off, T has the most cheesing capability out of any race, while Z has the least. Secondly, 9 pool speed is NOT cheese whatsoever. It's Fantasy's fault for building a shitty wall. JD just decided to go all-in and continue pumping Lings because he saw a window of opportunity. Thirdly, Fantasy cheesed his TWICE in the finals.

Besides that, I think this proves that JD is definitely out of the slump he was going in to. You're blind if you didn't see the pure rage in his eyes - it looked like he was about ready to tear Fantasy's head off. He's back, he's pissed, and there is NO WAY that Yarnc is winning this final. With JD back and ready for vengeance, and the fact that this is the only thing he's practicing for, Yarnc should just huddle in a corner and cry in the fetal position and hope it ends quickly.
A sound mind in a sound body, is a short, but full description of a happy state in this World: he that has these two, has little more to wish for; and he that wants either of them, will be little the better for anything else.

People also used that "JD will destroy everyone because he's angry" crap on the MSL semis, and look how that turned out. Yarnc's zvz is still one of the best in the world, he has a decent shot of winning.
