Jaedong is probably gonna get raped by anyone in the actual code S. i can assure you none of these code s players think that way themselves. against jaedong everyone is at an ability disadvantage and you are just hoping he hasn't learned enough sc2 to overtake you.
btw a lot of these 'errors' or 'chokes' gsl players show are forced errors. the pace of play is too fast for them to keep up. it's a pretty normal/regular way for inferior players to lose in bw. not that different here.

Yeah, one of the silly things about the seeding system is that it rewards whoever is most often picked as ace, so it's logical that the aces of the top five teams that got to the play-offs were selected. (except for Woongjin's ^^ , sorry Soulkey) Also, some players don't play as many games because they are supposed to play in the third games of either Bo3.

This seeding system is utterly ridiculous. Losses have no negative impact at all? A person with a 6-0 score scores less points than a 7-15 player? This makes no sense at all, how can they do this?
Also Fantasy skillwise is way up there and his PL record is incredible as well, I also hate him by the way.
People talking about Bisu are ridiculous -_- How is he even popular in the first place? Luckily for me I've hated him for 5 years and it's easy to continue doing so. Hating Fantasy AND BISU? How... how could you do that. T_T Actually I kind of like Fantasy because his expressions and such are hilarious when he loses. I don't really hate him as much anymore and it sure would help if he would stop beating my favorite players and then choking horribly in finals and whatnot. Bisu, well... First of all my sense of beauty is probably off because he's not handsome/pretty at all to me so having people talk about it makes me feel strange because I still cannot see it, another thing is that Zerg is my favorite race and he made the matchup way tougher than it needed to be, then in addition I used to love savior... I guess hate is abit strong, none of the SKT1 players really appeal to me, in fact... I guess Soo and Sun are okay, dislike Best still You're like the anti me. I couldn't ever hate Fantasy or Bisu. I-It'd just feel wrong to me. ,_, Likes and dislikes, soon in 2013 we will know they differ among people. gogo science sorry Btw. I also don't like Bisu (though i don't hate him) but i like Fantasy :p
I actually hated fantasy from the 'SPL finals between SKT and OZ' until the 'MSL semi finals of him vs Flash'. This career as a whole has really been tragic. The amount of silvers he has and the recent losses against jangbi. ;;
Now I just feel sorry for him. All. the. friggin. time.

It would be amazingly awesome for these guys to put up some good games. I can't wait to see them.

well i sure hope so too,because overconfidence is always a trap easy to fall in. Still from a neutral point of view he's below the rest,it was too early for code S seeds i think but i would like to see them in the code A qualifiers.

You're not factoring that the 7-15 player's coach had enough confidence to field him 22 times.

I would say "God" technically refers to Flash. He is known as God Young-Ho by Koreans. Though Jaedong is/was (he's far from his peak now unfortunately) an absolute monster himself xD ... the best multitasker in BW imo.

im so excited to see jaedong improve his play over the next couple months. Watch for it, he will be facing all code S skill level, its kill or be killed. Jaedong will succeed.

Hasn't Flash been playing very well too? Surprised not to see him there. What about Bisu?

Flash and Jaedong also had this huge rivalry going on couple years ago. Hopefully they can revive it later on in SC2! I'd go bananas

They get pick as ace because the team consider them to be the best. Nothing wrong with give seed to the best players.

Everyone has a equal probability of being played at game x of boX. It's not like <insert player name> is known to always play at game X.

Or maybe his team just is shit and he doesn't have as much competition - That shouldn't be held against the player because it's not his fault.

which is one of the keys to his awesomeness, the other being game sense but that takes a bit to get.

Flash hasn't been impressive except for his macro Yeah but his macro in bw was SO much more impressive given the mechanics of the game Its pretty downplayed here but that isn't flash's fault coughblizzardcough. (Also his macro in the osl games was less impressive too cause he got three early ccs and wasnt punished for it at all... I could do that too in sc2 without an opponent)

Nice! Feels good that Jaedong is Code S, though i'm not quite sure i can say he's completely ready at the moment.
Hope the best for him though!

Flash.. Farewell to the greatest BW player of all time.
