Yeah I think spots 1 and 2 will be determined tonight. However Flash can still hold on to #1 even if he loses, it just depends on the way in which he loses. Don't forget he beat Jaedong very convincingly in game 1. If JD scrapes 2 wins I would still keep Flash at the top.

I wouldn't. If Jaedong wins, then he's a PL workhorse, and in both MSL and OSL. If Flash wins, he's in MSL and OSL as well as being a PL workhorse.

The difference between the two, after the match, is obviously that one player is truly dominant over the other and can go the distance this season.

If Flash loses there is no way he would be able to keep #1. It would put him to four losses against JD's one. Also JD would be in both leagues while Flash only in MSL.

Their bo3 really decides #1, the winner takes it all.

It's true, but you can't ignore the way Flash totally dismantled Jaedong last week. Jaedong couldn't do a single thing and wasn't even able to get a 3rd gas. A rape of that magnitude against a top player like Jaedong is no laughing matter.

What? So would Jaedong.

Point is, whoever loses is out of the league, which is reason enough to put them below.

Flash COULD still drop MSL, though. Zero is no pushover.

What is hard to understand here, the argument was about JD beating flash. Then jaedong would totally be in both msl and osl while flash just in the msl.

Winner of Flash vs JD tonight definitely gets #1 in January.

Although it would be awkward if Flash stomped Jaedong and then lost to ZerO in MSL.

Um? Notice how his third sentence begins with "If Flash wins...".

I don't think this is decided by whoever wins of jaedong and flash. Flash should still be nr1.
He's done what noone else has, he is currently 2380 ELO, breaking records left and right at the moment. And its not only about the records and ELO and results... He's been playing better than anyone has ever.

Don't get me wrong, I love jaedong and he's definately a monster, but the way flash has been performing the last months have been so incredible that a 2-1 win over him where the loss was a complete rape couldn't possibly mean that jaedong should be above him.

I think Flash will win anyway but imo it doesn't even matter at this point. OSL or not...
might have mattered if it was a 3-0 rape in a bo5 or something, but the situation flash is in now is unique..
According to Reach, he is the fastest learner he has ever seen. He start bw only like 2/3 years ago. Infact, his bw history knowledge is so limited, he didn't even know what the map Guillotine was.

why even talk about what will happen if Jaedong beats flash? I mean, theres almost no chance its going to happen, so why bother talking about such implausible hypotheticals?

coz its 2 games of starcraft and jaedong is good, but i guess that was not serious. in fact, the fact that some actually might think its almost impossible for a zerg to beat flash is an indicator that he deserves #1 spot next month too:D

But Jaedong's been doing just as well this month and that whole reputation angle is kinda hard to use against Jaedong. Assuming Jaedong wins. So why not just wait until after tonight anyways?
