You may not have realized it, but this past round, Jung Myung Hoon was the best terran and best player overall in proleague, with an 8-1 record, and in addition, he's qualified to the Ro16 of both individual leagues as well. While it's always debatable which player is currently strongest in skill, there's no debate as to who is currently most reliable, with the undisputed highest win percentage in proleague R5 (not counting those one game winners, of course). And he shows now sign of stopping. Many players have stepped up their game and changed their strategies to face the former most reliable Terran, and have started to snatch an increasing number of wins from the player once thought of as unbeatable, but that's not the case with Fantasy. Despite everyone's realization that Fantasy's signature vultures and dropship play often spell doom to his opponents, others have yet to assemble a reliable counter to neutralize them. And Fantasy further ups his game during the playoffs (see: last year), with the legendary Terran Oov at his side as his coach and mentor. If there's any one player that's going to dominate these playoffs, it is Fantasy, not whoever else you might have had in mind.
how can you call Fantasy good at all after this match? This is Fantasy's game sense folks. The second something he has unprepared for hits, he's gonna crack and fall.
I love this match btw it has a shot of iloveoov calling Fantasy an idiot.
sorry but skt is going to lose to CJ tonight
If I find a one game, where JD or Flash fails like this, can I call them noobs? F.e. one game when JD forgot reaserching a consume, what costed him game?
Forgetting consume or storm isn't game sense. It's a mistake. Fantasy pushing out with those marines... that's gamesense, and Fantasy lacks it.
Sorry.
You honestly think forgetting consume in late game standard TvZ, and storm in PvZ, you know, the kind pros play every day for HOURS, is more acceptable than getting confused from a very unexpected strategy?

They are both game changing mistakes.
They're both game changing mistakes -- but "forgetting" to research consume is completely understandable. There's many valid reasons why this may have happened and none of them relate to "gamesense" unless the player completely forgot about it (unlikely). It's more likely they pressed the wrong upgrade or just clicked it but it didnt register and they assumed.
I'm sorry that everyone assumes Fantasy to be this great player. The only reason Fantasy has any sort of substance is because he can click with some vultures and iloveoov and Boxer spends all their time thinking about builds Fantasy could use cause Fantasy is that incapable of thinking up builds. Fantasy is lucky iloveoov and Boxer lives vicariously through him, it's the only reason why they would care. But in truth, without these artificial forces seemingly making it look like Fantasy can actually play, Fantasy is nothing.
[PS: I'm just trash talking because it's fun. I don't actually believe this]
Well he must be pretty damn good in everything else then to get his results because they're not exactly bad by any means.
Well, yep,he's pretty damn good at doing what oov's telling him to do. Game sense is the kind of stuff you need to win starleague, not to be a good player.
Oh Milkis you should just stay in the WeMade thread! SKT vs CJ should be a tricky match. It's a shame they have to meet so early, but at least it'll be faster than MBC vs FOX. .-.
T1 meh...I dont think they will be winning anything this year. Best, Bisu, Fantasy arent exactly reliable. And the sad day has come when Hyuk and S2 are the go to players...they have a decent shot in a sense, because of the experience and potential in their roster
For T1 the key will be teamwork, because I dont see them winning ace matches in their current form.
SKT zergs failed once again I hoped for a zerg win today. SKT cannot expect every time the trio to score ... today is an example , fantasy lsot and the match went away.... I will shout as louder as I can for SKT (:
Damn it Hyuk stop practicing for SL for a few hours and focus on PL instead, you'll get rolled by Fantasy in MSL anyway! /ticked off at both Hyuk and Fantasy
