Yeah, Jaedong played amazingly. I feel bad for both players. I also agree that Flash and Jaedong are standing on top of SC right now, and neither of them will probably get far enough ahead of the other to earn bonjwa status, now.

I'm just really disappointed tonight. Not that Flash lost, but that it happened like this. I'm sure Jaedong isn't happy about it either. MSL looked like a sick dog that needed to be put out of its misery, what with Jaedong awkwardly trying to smile and what sounded like 3 or 4 fangirls total making noise.

jaedong looked really sad i agree and flash was just like this thing is a joke.

however, i think it proved pretty conclusively that jaedong is still a force to be reckoned with and still playing at an astonishingly high level, for anyone who doubted that.

well, flash should keep his #1, but I think we all saw that JD is aprox at the same skill level with him. When Jaedong owned, no one was this close to him (maybe fantasy, but ...nah). I hope the bonjwa talk will end here.

Nah i'm pretty satisfied with Jaedong's showing . He showed that he can compete with Flash and saved us from "OMG Flash is an invincible bonjwa comments " . Not that i disagree with Flash being a bonjwa , but i think Jaedong deserves it just as much even thought Flash is the better player right now . It pains me thought that "super natural powers" had to take place in their series ....

Jaedong and Flash are both the best players.
Jaedong played it abit more risky this series giving him an edge.
3hatch before pool in 2 games as opposed to flash not going for 14CC or 1suply CC any game.

I felt that jaedong was ahead buildorderwise in all games except game nr1. so imo its not enough to put him ahead of flash.
Jaedong played great though..
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.

You know one rax cc>12 hatch 11pool BO-wise?

There is no even BO in any of the tvp, tvz, zvp matchups. There will always be one with the better BO.

Since the "Flash bonjwa" hype must be dying, how about bringing back good old "zerg imba" discussion?

Seriously, what's the deal with units that can't be killed?

Edit: oops, I intended to post this is another thread. But I guess it's equally off-topic here.

Switch 1 and 3, imo. How many players can say they've beaten down the best player in the game so badly that they're reduced to tears and their father goes nuts?

Because the games showed that Jaedong is capable of playing on Flash's level. There cannot be 2 bonjwa's at the same time.

JD out played him on imba maps... That is not Bonjwa level.

I don't think you can say that any other zerg could've played like JD did in game 3.... That was spectacular. Anyways, JD is looking quite good once again. His ZvP is in its finest form. His ZvT is looking quite strong (I mean come on, his only losses lately have come from flash, and sea), and his ZvZ is looking strong as well. With winners league coming up I fully expect him to go into monster mode. Seeing flash breaking all sorts of records has probably made him hungry to break some of his own records.

Well, Flash is playing on bonjwa level; look at his record during the season. Ridiculous ELO peak, by far the best player in PL, winner of OSL (where he beat JD on the way) and MSL finalist. Savior never dominated this hard. The problem is that Jaedong is fucking sick as well and can obviously play good games against Flash. Plus he has won 5 Starleagues. We need a new term to classify these amazing GOAT candidates. They're above S-class and they can't both be bonjwa.
