Scarlett really might be the best zvt player or very least she is among the best zvt players. But you have to remember that Bomber and Maru are not that good tvz players and korea has some great zvt players too like Soulkey. Jaedong also seems to be kinda bad at zvt (going 0-4 against Polt just before s2 finals and now this)
But yeah, she has REALLY great ZvT.

She does have very strong ZvT, considering the finals and how the games went definitely better than JD. Though in the 5th game it was not even close really with how insanely well Bomber contained her for so long on 2 bases.
I am not sure however that any of them are to be considered the BEST ZvT players out there.

Just came back from the event. Can't really describe the awesomeness.
Also 2k posts. This one is for you Bomber!
Made me a fan(even though it was way overdue).
P.S: TvT still the best matchup to watch 3 years and counting...

this is sort of a deja vu of when he lost against polt with 3-0 in the wcs na finals.JD seems to have some psychological thing going on during finals.But probably a large part of it comes form the fact that he met really good players in the finals.Polt and Bomber when they have good periods are litarally beasts.Nevertheless I think Jaedong as a great that he is puts a lot more emphasys in long term CONSISTENCY than to winning one tournament and then vanishing for years.And this is shown by the fact that he is second in wcs points behind only innovation.A true champion relies on getting good results on the long run and I think in the sc2 scene JD is the most consistent player of the last 3 months.Naniwa,Polt and even Innovation also come to mind in terms of consistency.

I was really rooting for Jaedong (and before that, Scarlett), but I've got to hand it to Bomber, that was just amazing play. It reminds me of Flash during the Brood War days with his impeccable macro.
Congrats to Bomber, +1 fan

To be fair that hellbat madness that Innovation vs TaeJa game 3 had was pretty funny.

Soulkey is probably the best ZvTer. pretty much his only losses are to Innovation. After that, it's pretty close. I'd say she's very close to the top though. She has a few early game problems I guess where she always seems to start behind but her midgame is absolutely incredible.

Hmmm, that's rather interesting. Maybe he does qualify for it after all.

It will be what, 3rd triple crown this year? (2nd set for Mvp, Polt's and Bomber's)

Of course he qualifies for it. Code A is much harder than foreign tournaments. Look at how few foreigners have ever made it to Code S.

Soulkey lost to Supernova too, and Maru trashed Symbol but Scarlett had no problems against him. I think it's really hard to say right now, but Scarlett and Soulkey are really close. Top 3 for sure (zvt).

It shouldn't. That's like saying that a football team won a title after winning the second division.
