I don't think the WCG games should be considered too heavily when looking at this series. If I were Light, I wouldn't have wanted to show in WCG whatever it is I am planning to do in MSL. Going for two quick cheeses is a way to potentially win games without necessarily revealing anything. It used to be that wasn't true. A long time ago. Back when SC was much less understood. These days basically every cheese build possible is well documented, but revealing timings can kill you. I highly doubt Light is going to do some new timing attack that isn't already being done tbh. I will be surprised if jaedong loses to light I think jaedong will either 3-0 or 3-1 (LWWW). | ||

Indeed there has been a lot of convergence in how the game is played, but everybody has different timing senses, different star senses, etc., and it's better to try to win the lesser event while revealing nothing. I don't know if Light is going to win or not. I think he has the talent to do so, but nerves could be a serious issue, because Light has them while Jaedong doesn't. | ||

Also, love how he uses static defenses. His placement of turrets and siege tanks is just sooooooo perfect, irrespective of matchup and in TvT, that's more or less all you need to win 75% of the time. My respect for Flash has increased this season, in spite of his mini-ace-slump (for lack of a better word, or is it aberration). A JvF all finals across three different leagues will be too much to ask for, and I am not sure I can take it, but it would have been much more epic if at one league didn't have such imba maps. We'll see if JD can overcome map imbalance to beat arguably the best player to ever play the game. | ||

Light's fancy stats means nothing when he's up against an S-class player in a Bo5 in a Starleague semi-final. We will get ''Would've been bonjwa if it wasn't for the other imba Lee'' vs ''Would've been bonjwa if it wasn't for the other imba Lee'' #3 in MSL. And quite possibly in OSL too. warning if u'r high dont read this it gave me a headache | ||

#1 -  Jaedong#2 -  Flash#3 - Fantasy#4 - EffOrt#5 - ZerO#6 - Sea#7 - Light#8 -  free#9 - Stork#10 - KalI think Kal is the best protoss at the moment, but I can't "prove" it. So he slips in at #10. But protoss just doesn't have anyone inspiring at the moment. None of the top protosses qualify as S-class. There's not a whole lot of inspiring protoss talent that's coming up, really. Bisu looks vulnerable. Stork looks vulnerable. Free is playing the best, but he's not that frightening. Kal is reliable and strong, but just can't beat the top players. Difficult situation for protoss, even with a somewhat favorable map pool. | ||

It certainly seems like Z is on backfoot in SC1 against T (pro tvz win% > pro zvt win% on most), and when opponent is capable in playing close to perfect (Flash) then JD should stand no chance. So I'm not expecting Flash to ever lose tvz bo5 unless he slumps or is totally taken by surprise in multiple games. Rooting for JD v flash finals tho, in at least one of the leagues. When JD is playing a Bo5, all of that random shit doesn't matter. | ||

Eventhough he lost, he came pretty close. I wouldn't judge Light chances too fast. That being sad, Light ain't no fantasy, JD should have it in the bag. I'm going to quote myself and say that I was right in the first paragraph. Light play was much better than in WCG, he could take the series if some things tourned out differently. But the second paragraph is way out lol. Light is closer to fantasy than I though, losing 3:2 when you are in the lead heh... | ||
