I love ZvZ actually, that kind of final would be epic, as long as it isn't 100% onesided. | ||

There's like a 90% chance that even if he beats flash he'll have to face a Zerg who is vastly superior to him in ZvZ, most likely resulting in a one-sided 3:0 finals. | ||

This! July can't ZvZ at all. | ||

July has only lost 2 Best of 5s in his entire career, and both were to the current bonjwa. Flash isn't even close to being bonjwa, he doesn't even deserve to be called S class right now. I hope that Flash loses because it would be a sad runover if Flash advanced to play against Jaedong. July is an incredibly smart series player, in a bo5 its pretty ignorant to just declare that he will be rolled even though he is playing someone who is at the same level as himself. I don't know if you have been paying attention, but July's ZvT is quite good lately. Also Flash is losing a to a lot of zergs recently, including Calm(lololol) and Kwanro, and also Yarnc and Jaedong. July has been doing just as good in ZvT as all four of those players who beat Flash On July 11 2009 23:29 3 Lions wrote: July vs Iris finals please +1!!!! | ||

I mean the post started off with "If he beats Flash" so no one even said Flash is going to roll him. edit: also he lost to Nada in the 2004-2005 osl finals. I'm pretty sure Nada wasn't bonjwa in 2005. :> (hint it was Oov) | ||

However, July is such a legend. It's always great to see those guys do well in the modern context. | ||

+ Show Spoiler + This is fricken upsetting. Now we cant see an epic zvt between jaedong and flash in the finals damn it. I respected effort but not anymore, even though my argument just now doesnt make sense. He shoulda lost lol. | ||

Remember GSL1? Jaedong > Flash where only one game got past mutalisk harassment and that game was basically over anyway by that point. At least Effort loves taking things to complicated endgames. | ||

It was after his msl streak and between his OSLs. If you look at the time period between when the first of those three leagues began and the last ended, oov won a mediocre 55% of his games. GoRush and nada both won approximately 67% of their games and the vast majority of these were in the individual leagues. | ||
