I think anyone who said "lol not FE worthy" is just going to feed Andy's desire to create more such pwnage articles. I'm still waiting for a SC TMQ equivalent...

For the first 20 lines of the articles i thought you wrote this after a saturday out with friends ... with too many drinks.

I was wrong, you gave us a taste of authentic SCIENCE.

Nevertheless i don't think Jaedong is going to win ... and i can PROVE you winning the OSL can be even easier than that:

* Being already in Korea (South).
* No need to play Courage League.
* No need to play PSL
* No need to play OSC because you are already seed for OSL
* No need to play ODT because you are already seed for OSL
* Go 10-1 / 11-0 / 9-2 in the OSL

Guess who? 3 man can do this!

Too bad two are probably going to be eliminated in the first round. :0

Also it's more like 2-1, 2-1, 3-2, 3-2... so 10-5. Gee... this seems oddly reminiscent of GGPlay (barring the first round), except he actually had to qualify.

How about we make it 10-6? What's wrong with people's elementary math nowadays?

I want to see someone lose 11 games to go to the OSL.

That would mean

Loses 3 games in OSL Semis (Up 2-0, 3 chances for 1st or 2nd seed)
Loses 3 games in OSL 3rd place game (Up 2-0, 3 chances for 3rd seed)
Loses 3 games in OSC Playoff Finals (Up 2-0, 3 chances for 4th seed)
Loses Winners Final in ODT
Loses Losers Final in ODT

MAXIMUM PAIN

But all this research begs the question: because my easy-to-follow steps were not published until just now, who is going to win the current OSL? The answer lies in the percentage. Only one player in the current OSL has a winning percentage above 65.31%, and that player is Jaedong. So who’s going to win the current OSL? Jaedong. You can’t argue with science.


I believe math would be a better term, but okay =p.

In this case, yes. But 'You can't argue with science' is just a universal statement whether you're talking about math, physics or biology ;-)

The current MSL format is slightly easier to win:

  • Go to Korea (South)
  • Go 12-6 in the Courage League.
  • Go 6-3 in the PSL.
  • Go 2-1 in the Survivor Tournament.
  • Go 13-8 in the MSL.
You would come out with a 64.71% win record, a little more than half a percent less than the OSL

I feel it's important to point out that Jaedong is currently in the OSL semifinals. Science.

I would just like to bump this article on the eve of the Stork - Jaedong OSL finals.

This thread is a monument to the massive talent and intellect that is DJEtterStyle.

Should Jaedong win tomorrow (and according to all statistical analysis he should) then Etter stands atop the progaming analysis ladder with the biggest balls of them all.

If Jaedong wins .....



I'm at a loss of words just thinking of that possibility and what it might do to Etter's ego.
