I can't remember a game where Jaedong lost bacause of his poor late game performance.


Just to play devil's advocate: Jaedong vs. Flash @ Match Point (Proleague game) - forgetting dark swarm is quite an obscene error and would possibly qualify as poor (or at least disappointing) late game performance. In general though, you're probably right.

You don't get a match fixed for a battle that could go either way. If Jaedong lost to say, Idra, then you could talk about possible match fixing.
Besides, that does happen. Stork once forgot goon range(although he won the game).

Why do you blame that?

Attending university-->less time-->less practice+less sleep--->not playing as good as before.


You have no idea what that means do you? As Artosis explained, pros only do that to avoid the army.
Why would you ever choose failure, when success is an option.

look guys, Jaedong is acting like a stop lurker. he's just sitting there quietly, pretending to "slump" and then all of a sudden unleashes his wrath and wins another 5 OSLs

It has more to do with Flash being so dominant right now. Jaedong sometimes struggles with his zvt but he is still the best zerg at the moment.

I think its more of the Flash leading TvZ that others followed that made JD's vs T weaker than usual. All Zergs have trouble vs T right now. Jaedong's ZvT atm is actually holding out better than the other Zergs.

explains why I consider Jaedong to be as strong as Flash...sure looking at overall playing strength FLash looks better atm but when it comes to BO5 and It really really counts,I bet my money on the Dong(say last MSL)

Jaedong is bonjwa, TvZ is T favored and Jaedong still 3-1ed Flash in the NATE MSL and there was nothing Flash could do even on T favored maps.

Jaedong doesn't actually lose matches, he pretends to be bad in Proleague so that he can completely destroy everyone in BO5s.

Don't worry guys, Jaedong will win the Korean Air OSL and the Hana Daetoo MSL, and then he will win the Platinum Mouse just because he is that good and he is the best person to ever play Starcraft and anyone who disagrees doesn't realize that Zerg is the weakest race in SC1.

No, mainly because everything here is wrong.

Jaedong should, however, be fine. Clearly he is no longer the best of the best, that title belongs to Flash. However, he is still the king of Zerg. He's not going to fade as fast as Savior, that's for sure.
There is but one truth.

If he is still the best zerg @ the moment, his reign couldn't be over

Well, maybe his reign is over because flash takes over. So he still dominate every other player except flash. Actually I think if there is MSL Jaedong vs Flash finals, I won't say Flash will most likely win. kkk. I just have this feeling Jaedong going aggressive in order to steal his #1 spot back.

But MSL is Flash vs (Another progamer), I will say maybe Flash will win... 80%? No, 85%

Jaedong can still beat other progamer easy, and still have good chance of winning strong players like Kal, Midas, Baby & ...calm? Ah, maybe I shouldn't count zerg in.

it goes without saying you must be doing relatively well when

- being 600 points above 3rd place
- going 62.5% in what is historically your worst month
- being expected to beat everyone who's name is not lee young ho
- beating same person in a MSL to deny him a dual league title, and being considered one of the few that can challenge said person


is considered you being in a slump and having your reign over


Wow, people aren't expecting Jaedong to be able to beat LuCifer? He must be slumping indeed

jaedong right now reminds me of nada: a very mechanical player that had his time of glory, but then got overshadowed by the next bonjwa - but without ever fading away.
but he still always sat there as one of the very few who could give the current bonjwa a run for his money. and just like savior had to defeat nada in a SL bo5 to be acknowledged as bonjwa, flash will have to defeat jd in a bo5 to be acknowledged as bonjwa.
