(T)Iris vs (Z)Jaedong would be an awesome finals and (Z)Jaedong vs (T)fantasy WILL be an awesome semifinal. ZvT is the best matchup to watch IMO so I'm rooting for (T)Iris, plus he gets awesome points for beating (P)Bisu

Hmm, I agree with most of what is written in this article, but I think Jaedong still has a good possibility to beat Fantasy because he will be so angry for revenge. I think the matches between them will be very close.

I have always liked Iris' style and I feel like he deserves at least one title win. Hopefully, he won't fade away like Midas.

Iris opens 2-fac, disguising it as FD
FD means Fake Double factory, right? So Iris disguised his 2fac by making it look like he was disguising his build as 2fac? Clever!

nice write up : )

Excellent job by Iris to reach where he is and I am a bit disappointed to see ZerO losing.

HOW DARE YOU, Hot_Bid? How dare you taint your preview of the MSL semis with a blasphemous prediction for the OSL?! You overreach yourself, heathen.

Even Calm knows he's at a severe disadvantage; He thumbed down the 2 player maps while JD thumbed down the 4 player maps, just an interesting note.

FD means Fake Double factory, right? So Iris disguised his 2fac by making it look like he was disguising his build as 2fac? Clever!

Are you trying to say that the sentence doesn't make sense? Because FD and 2fac are clearly very different builds and don't look the same at all. FD is technically "fake double" but no P ever really thinks its a real 2-fac when they see FD... no P's fall for it anymore. Mostly because very few T's actually 2-fac.

FD is different than standard double factory. FD moves out with several marines, 1 tank, and rallied mine vultures. The purpose is not to kill but to contain with mines and build a CC and hopefully get the P to expand later because he "fears" a true 2-fac. Ideally what would happen is the P gets scared of 2-fac, builds 2 gates, goons, and robo before taking his expo, and the T is super far ahead in expo timing.

But no P actually falls for FD anymore because its such a common build. Nowadays P's see the marines, 1 tank, and vultures and immediately recognize FD and expand, putting them on equal (or slightly ahead) footing with the T. The way a P can tell this is by tank count. A true 2-fac will almost always have 2-3 tanks while a FD only has 1 tank with rallied vultures.

So by "faking" an FD, Iris made Bisu think that Iris was making a CC when he was actually going for a true 2fac, 3 tanks + speedmine vultures. Had Bisu known this he would've cut probes or gotten a robo / obs faster or positioned his goons better.

Pshhh there weren't any concrete predictions in the OSL semifinals preview so I thought I might as well say what I thought was going to happen. Yes I cover MSL but obviously an OSL title is worth more and its the more interesting league right now because Bisu/Effort are out of the MSL. At least to the average fan at least. To me of course MSL is more interesting because it has two CJ players still alive in it.

Yeah, I know it makes sense; I just thought it was funny given the terminology.

edit: and I called your prediction blasphemous because it went against Jaedong. It was just the sheer unnecessity of predicting at all that had me riled.

Jaedong will either turn into superdong and rape Fantasy, or Fantasy will come on a hotstreak for some months like Flash was and JD will surpass him.
Atleast this is how I see it happend!
JAEDONG FOR MSL AND OSL! GO!
