I think ForGG needs to shape up his macro or at least his army control.

Improve his macro? No way he can. He already has the best macro among Terrans, and arguably the best macro in the proscene.
His army control has a lot of room for improvement though. His micro is less terrible now, but still far from good.
If Jaedong is clearly the favourite here, I wouldn't count fOrGG out too fast. Being team mates, they must know each other's build very well, and fOrGG has showed he can adapt his opponent.
I expect great games from these guys, and hope for a crazy comeback by whoever you want, so some conspiracy theorists can make a whole thread about explaining how/why the games were rigged.
And I don't care who wins, because either the MSL goes to LECAF!!!

the names in the banner should be reversed... someone who isn't really into the pro scene will think forgg is jaedong and the other way around.

btw forgg fighting!

Ah! How could I forget about Mind? I'll add him immediately.

Concerning the banner: I didn't make, nor have the skill or ability to edit it. Even if I did it's pachi's work so I wouldn't tamper with it and I think it look's despite a slight imperfection.

I think Jaedong will rape the shit out of poor forGG. However it would be more interesting if forGG could steal a game or two. We will see, I predict 3-0.

Yes, well July has been a contender in the scene for years and everyone knows he can be a dangerous opponent any place and any time. So he doesn't really count does he? The players mentioned rose out of obscurity to be great, July was already great.

ForGG will win 3-1, losing the first set.

[*]If ForGG ever learns how to properly micro, watch out. His macro is like he listens to a subliminal "we require more minerals" message every night while he sleeps. It is funny how many units he makes and even funnier how many he then loses with sloppy control. He is already good enough to be a solid Proleague contributor (10-8), and if he learns how to use those blobs of units he makes, he could be a champion


I think that he will learn how to use his units

Nice writeup, DeadVessel , thank you very much .

In my opinion Jaedong will win this series with straight 3-0 or if not - 3-1 (dropping the game on Tiamat) . Even if ForGG manages to hold until game 5 (wins on Tiamat and Athena) - he will lose it, because of the great pressure .

I'm REALLY looking forward to this. I just hope it's not one-sided, like July and Best.

Where did you get that picture of Jaedong? It looks like he's performing a magic trick...to steal the MSL trophy. Actually, is there an MSL trophy?

if ForGG manages to shape up his army micro then he get can a game off Jaedong (like mass resotration on plagued uniits, or mass dmatrix), then he can proxy his 2 other games to victory. Hahaha, I'm looking forward to a close series.^^

forgg has looked really really good in his prevous games in this season. That being said, Jaedong has experience on his side, and forgg's lack of unit control should prove to be his downfall against everything from stop lurker to defending against muta.

3-1 jaedong

Jaedong is a ZvT monster no doubt. His macro and multitasking is somewhat unmatchable, I pissed my pants when I watched his games against Hwasin and it somewhat tells me that any Terran that decides to go to a macro war against Jaedong will lose. I also think that Jaedong will anticipate proxy or cheese against ForGG since he knows that he will win if ForGG macros against him or anything.


I've seen Mind macro steamroll Jaedong...
