great article (as always)

rooting for SKT1
boxer vs JD for a super ace would be the best (especially if boxer bunker rushes)

Wow. Up really quick.

One thing to note about JD breaking 3000 in the KeSPA ranking is that in all fairness the rating system has changed a lot over the years, so it's really unfair to compare different players by their raw numerical score. On today's modern system, I can't imagine that JD's rating would be better than NaDa's at the time he "gold grand slammed," because winning 3 starleagues at the same time has got to be one hell of a ranking booster.:p

When did Nada gold grand slammed?
Jaedong has to be a Bonjwa. Tired of of rooting for July.

I kinda want Best to get a PvZ so he can go sair-reaver, show his trademark Doh-sairs, and then steamroll the Zerg with a huge army he shouldn't have (He did this vs Savior I recall haha)

By your logic, we should just crown SKT and call it a day. It would be an injustice if another team took home the crown when SKT did better overall for the entire year.

It feels like yesterday, that EffOrt made his first appearance in a televised game against Kal, where he beat him 2-0 in the Incruit OSL Robin Round stages... Good times :D

It's the same way CJ was able to advance past Khan.
Khan 7 to CJ's 6, going to super ace for a 7-7 CJ victory, with EffOrt winning 4 out of the total needed games!
That's the system and nothing we can really do about it, at least it leads to exciting ace matches.

Anyway, awesome to see Oz go to the finals, predicting an obvious Jaedong v Bisu super ace, but anything can happen.

Don't forget, Khan barely eked out a win against stx, calm was beating great until he decided that he was too good for muta over scourge micro. Then Stx kicked the crap out of khan on day 2 and still lost -_-
This 2 day series thing really is somewhat stupid.

Hype for grand finals:

Thezerg vs Lomo
Best vs Perfectman
Canata vs Hiya
Fantasy vs Backho

and of course the super ace Bisu vs Jaedong?

Well oz won faire and square both teams new the format none complained both team practiced and we were treated as underdogs even after we knew the format so any complaints are just ridiculous

great article

seriously any team sends out a zerg vs jaedong[especially super aCE] is the most awful decision.We all know eff0rt is currently the best CJ player but after losing to Calm and JD,if i was the coach i would send out either Movie or SKyhigh .JD has like 99.99% of winning any Z player regardless who they are but hes isnt guarantee a win if going other race

CJ,you have done well in the playoff but JD is a god.

movie is on cj. not really sure who you meant there, since i can't see anyone getting hyped for young unless they get off on watching epic failure, and killer and ggaemo are not protoss.
