Both jaedong and flash said in an interview that player's skill is much more relevant to wining than a map statistic. Add to the fact that some of the maps have a very low game pool and it's a Bo5 where mind games rule your world as Julyzerg him self said after his Golden Mouse win. With jaedong and flash it's one mistake and it's all over so anything can happen. Still Flash with his incredible form as of late looks to be the favorite but dont count JD out. Hoping for a great games and someone crying again(from joy i mean) :D | ||

Yeah there's so much talking here about not taking little sample sizes and now ppl are talking about imba with maps that were played only a few times QQ Plus Match Point seems to be kinda "cursed" map for Flash | ||

edit: But I wouldn't blame too much on the map imbalances if Flash ends up winning anyway. I mean, Flash did end up winning the OSL Finals on Protoss maps. | ||

It's a moot point thought because the sample sizes are too low too mean anything for most of those maps. edit: beaten by idra: On January 21 2010 18:04 IdrA wrote: ultimatum and oddeye are 3-3, 2-2 tvz if you take out flash's games. dont quote statistics off a sample of 8 fucking games. | ||

BUT, this is Flash we're talking about. I haven't seen a player on such a rampage since Savior. Then again, this is Jaedong. In hardcore rage-mode after their OSL meeting. Of course, Flash is the best Terran, and a victory here will cement his legacy. Well, Jaedong is the best Zerg, and a win here will consolidate his position of the greatest Zerg of all times. Naturally, Flash's TvZ is arguably even better than oov's at his prime, so if anyone can do this, he can. Seriously though, Jaedong has the strongest ZvT, and the most dominant since Yellow. *head explodes due to awesome* | ||

I watched most of these games live, so, as an example: Match Point Flash > Kwanro, nothing wrong with this result Baby > Hyun, interesting result but not egregious, two inconsistent players with high potential. Baby went mech and Hyun played pretty brain-dead Kwanro > Light, ling all in Zero > Flash, great build and great play by Zero Light > hero, Muta/Guardian all-in by hero, he knocks Light back to just one base and can't finish the job, blown game by hero Hyun > Flash, amazing game Shine > Special, better player won Iris > hyvaa, I don't remember this game too well but I believe Iris pulled a nice comeback Flash > Saint, hidden Lurker all in failed hero > Canata, don't remember this game fantasy > Calm, long game in which Calm played poorly after getting a huge lead Hwasin > Shine, don't remember this fantasy > Hoejja, solid play by fantasy with a great Wraith switch and a Nuke Ruby > juni Ruby > shark, nothing wrong with either of these results That's just one map, but if you look at the game lists (and watch the games) for pretty much each of these maps, none of them is egregious. Slight edge to Terran? Probably. But those statistics you listed are terribly misleading and just plain unhelpful. | ||
