So what are the results of the entire final?

Would going straight to set 5 been a better decision>? like just give them both wins for that game and move on to the 5th game tied 2-2?>

That's basically the same as a rematch on Odd-Eye minus the preparation and balance issues. No, it would not have been a better decision.

I'm surprised this hasn't already been asked, but is it possible the power outage was staged by MBC to create controversy over their MSL Final? People commented on their unprofessionalism when FlaSh's image appeared during Game 3 of Jaedong v KaL. I wonder if MBC would do such a thing..


mate, this incident was clearly staged and induced by north-korean spies who hope to throw south-korea into a civil war resulting out of the general confusion and anger caused by the KESPA decision.

It's a difficult issue - whether to regame or not. For the sake of fairness, I agree with ret's point of view - Jaedong had a convincing lead. However, what could have been an utterly epic clash between the two greatest giants of Starcraft turned out be a most anti-climactic one. Sadly, it's tainted by this power outage-issue. From that standpoint, they should have replayed the match. Touch call =/

Zergneedsfood, I don't think you watched the same vod as us. In our vod Flash scouted JD's defences and retreated his single control group army away from them.


Oh. I wasn't talking about Flash attacking stuff.....

I merely read the thread and watched part of the VOD.

I guess I was just arguing on the grounds that it's not about who has a clear definite advantage or not (because I honestly don't want to decide who, because I could very well be wrong), it's about giving out the entertainment value that a tournament like the MSL deserves. It's great to think that people who were in the lead won, but come on....

A 3-1 victory like this? It could have easily been avoided and people would be more content with the fact the 4th games would have been much more exciting....

Then that brings in the question if Jaedong loses.......lulz

haha.. lol ... but it actually ruins Flash's ELO-stats. It takes away like 40 ELO-points.

Unfortunate circumstances, but I would have to ultimately agree with the decision that they made. It just sucks because this set will be forever tainted as will the results

I just hope that this massive fuckup on MBC's part leads to a their responsibilities being transferred to GOMTV.

I know it won't, but I've still got my fingers crossed.

I thought this news post was gonna address all the matches, instead i just got confused when i opened up TL and found out they were only talking about game 3.

Is Flash going to slump after this? It's a pretty harsh way to lose a dual title

My opinion is that Jaedong was clearly in a huge lead and it would be just about impossible for Flash (despite him being overall the best now) to come back especially against great player like Jaedong. The rematch would really put JD into big disadvantage compared to the situtation he was in game 3 (game won 95% - Flash really had nothing to fight JD and running out of resources). Anyways the FINAL was a joke for me and i am sorry for the players
Brood War is the best RTS that has ever been created.

Shit was over in that game. 2 empty vessels. 0 tanks. 0 mines. 1 group of mnm. 5 gases and armour upgraded ultralisks. That's it.

That being said i must say one more thing-we will never find out who deserved to win but what can you do.Im a Flash fan but you don't have to swear at JD he played straight and it wasn't his fault that te refs are stupid.Also i think JD played perfect in the first game!
Chill: ''My children, please fucking stop making threads about how you are pissed that Brood War is dying and so on and so forth. It's getting tiring, and my old bones ache.''

Nothing can go right for MBC can it?- even when they have the greatest final in starcraft history, nothing goes right.
