thank you all for your work towards this thread

CJ should be able to take down OZ, but will eventually fall under T1...

And yea the picture is fine cause I wasn't sure who was conquered before reading this thread to be honest.

That would be because you saw the second picture, and not the original one. The original one made it pretty obvious who was the conqueror ;p

The current picture doesn't convey the emotion the original one did, sadly, but I'd rather have that than possibly spoil the results to more people.


oh heh i guess that makes sense. I didn't know the pic got changed just thought people were way overreacting
I may not be the best player right now but I think I can beat any 'best' players. I'll beat all the best players and become the best player. Watch me. - Jju

Well im very sad cus Samsung lost... but Im a zerg lover and its seems that maybe we have another overmind... Effort is playing at a sick Lvl he is playing like Jaedong... and that is very hard to do.

Good Job Effort you won against Khan, I feel pretty bad about fbh... January has to make him dump his gf or he is going to the B-Team.
Now that Khan isnt on the playoff anymore its time for Backho winning all... Lets go Oz and Backho!

Looking foward to the Match betwen Cj and Oz... this format of playoff maybe is not the best cus always the loser team find anoying things on it.. but this format delivered.

If Effort beats Jaedong at ZvZ AGAIN and wins it for his team, People will poop their pants and scream "Bonjwa". Prepare for the debate guys.

I love Jaedong, but It always bothered me that he could always drop a game or two against no names and that he doesn't have a bunch of trophies (he deserves them). Perhaps my prayers for a truly dominant zerg will be answered.

r u for rela?
Effort isnt near Jaedong... he is playing on a high level like jaedong, but he isnt at Jaedong to start calling him a "Bonjwa" he needs a lot of time to be like Jd... he needs at least 2 Osl titles, remember Effort is good, the best Zerg after Jd but this is Jaedong time... and maybe effort could beat Jd but he is droping from the starleagues something that Jaedong isnt doing (for now at least).

And Effort deserves the number 1 spot on the PR just because of his match against Khan so much pressure on him and he delivered, but remember when Bisu and Jd start to play again every day people is going to forget how well is effort doing... its just a momentary thing.
I give effort 1 year more and he is going into starleague mode and start winning all... hopefully =D

I don't think the first picture spoilered it at all, although I agree with the change. The first picture showed effort with his headphones off and the title "conquered". Was ambiguous for me.

Jaedong doesn't have a bunch of trophies?

So what trophies should an accomplished starcraft player have, if its not Pro League, GOM, MSL and OSL titles?

Also who exactly are these "no name" players?
In his last 40 or sth games he had losses against canata, effort, yarnc, stork, light, bisu and movie.
While only bisu and probably effort are S-class, which one of these guys is a "no name" player? O_o

You shouldn't use conquered if it's not about forgg 정ㅋ벅ㅋ ^^

Just kidding, this was a great article and as a CJ fan, yesterday was probably the best day ever. It was almost as good as Skyhigh reversekilling OZ in the winner's league. Effort really came through for his team.

Compared to jaedong, bisu and flash, who are light and movie? no names. As in they have not won a trophy, so they don't have their names on anything. Are you offended at me saying this? I am confused. Jaedong does drop games he is supposed to win once in a while, are you denying that? He does not have a bonjwa amount of titles (mainly because competition is so crazy these days). It's not like he has been beating everybody and winning everything for a year, I am saying that I would like this to happen.

I think you misunderstood my post. I did not say that Effort is a bonjwa or that he is as good as jaedong.

I said that I hope in the future he or jaedong will kick ass and win a bunch of stuff because I want a zerg "bonjwa".

Uh-huh, so everybody who doesn't have a trophy is a no name.
So sea is a fuckin no name, leta is a fuckin no name, effort is a fuckin no name. (this list of course could go on and on and on)

The thing is that when I read your post it sounds like you don't know how starcraft works- it doesn't work the way that one dominant player will win every game he is supposed to win. Savior lost to Iris. Savior lost to Chojja. Savior lost to Bisu (all of them no names back then by your definition) . He was supposed to beat them. He was the freaking bonjwa.
It just doesn't work like that, not even for a bonjwa, which we obviously dont even have atm, lesser players are always gonna be able to overcome the best of the best.
And that is true nowadays in particular because players have never been this good.

And your "JD lacks trophies" part still doesnt make sense.

On one hand you are completely right, but if I think about it more, doesn't it seem like there is no chance for Effort to lose, so in fact it is a spoiler?

Nice write-up. I'm stunned by the result I must say.

I really don't understand all this complaining about being spoiled as to the results though... This is, and has now for a very long time been, a Starcraft *news* site. News is, by its very nature, telling you what has happened. If you don't want to see the news, and it bothers you to such levels to read spoilers, you shouldn't be accessing this site through the front page. This is like all the dumb complaints about spoilers in the replay comments section... seriously.
