Epic, though not the best play from either players (especially the winner) and the game drags on a bit too much at the end. Match Point has been one of the most mined out maps this season.

FakeSteve : Wow, I'm very surprised with KT's choice. fOrGG shoulda been their starter, they're down 0-1 right off the bat now. I suppose in the end it doesn't really matter, what will end up happening is MBC getting four cracks at Flash. None of the other players on KT's roster matter in the slightest, but fOrGG definitely should have started for KT.

Do you think KT will finaly break the 2nd place jinx, or MBC will deny them the gold yet again? Who can stop Flash?

FakeSteve : Nope, KT is fucked. Someone's gonna beat Flash tonight, someone named Sea[Shield]. It's the playoffs baby, you can't stop MBC! Jinxes don't exist anyway, it'd be shameful for KT fans to hide behind it after their team gets decimated tonight.

FakeSteve :

Set 1: HoeJJa < Judgment Day > Light

No question here. How the fuck is HoeJJa going to beat Light? It's not gonna happen. I think HoeJJa is pretty cool to be honest, but he is massively outclassed here.



Set 2: Stats < Match Point > Light

KT will send a protoss, but since all their Protoss players are just awful, Light's gonna win this one too.



Set 3: fOrGG < New Tornado > Light

This should have been set 1, but whatever. They'll try to send out fOrGG to kill Light before they send Flash. Obviously they'll keep Flash as their ace player, but Light's gonna reach 3 kills tonight.



Set 4: Flash < Fighting Spirit > Light

Light has a good shot at taking this match. However, it's still just a "good shot". I like the way Flash plays on Fighting Spirit, and the TvT games I've seen Light play here have so far been uninspiring, despite being fundamentally sound. While an all-kill isn't outside the realm of possibility, it doesn't seem likely, so I'm giving this match to Flash.



Set 5: Flash < Neo Moon Glaive > Sea[Shield]

No one is going to beat Sea[Shield] on Moon Glaive tonight. NO ONE. This match is fucking OVER!



Set 6: KT Fans' Hopes < Roadrunner > Sea[Shield]

Set 7: KT Fans' Dreams < Judgment Day > Sea[Shield]



Do you think we are in the twilight of the professional SC:BW scene? Are we ready to switch to SC2 or does the old game have something more to offer?

FakeSteve : The professional StarCraft circuit is a business like any other, and let me tell you, dollars don't give a fuck about StarCraft 2. StarCraft in Korea will be around until the money stops, and with Korean Air sponsoring OSL, that doesn't look like it'll happen anytime soon. Nonkorean competition for Brood War has been relatively dead outside of TSL for years, nothing new here. We can't enter another era of true bonjwa and just ditch it all for a flashy new girlfriend! I mean video game. My shrink says that's really unhealthy and I need to take these pills to make it go away but I'M NOT TAKING THEM because who trusts doctors?!

After WL we are back to the conventional PL format for 2 more rounds. Make your longterm predictions: which teams will make it to the final 6?

FakeSteve : Top 6 with the other format will be KT, T1, MBC, Oz, STX, and Hite. I have no idea what order they'll be in, but those will be the top 6. Believe it! Sorry CJ whom I love dearly!

FakeSteve : To all KT fans: You are scum. Especially MrHoon, who I heard was far too scared of me to ever take part in an interview. He knows I'd just SHRED him.



To all Flash fans: You have exquisite taste in Terran players and are probably very successful IRL and also a hunky gentleman, but you are going DOWN. I look forward to tomorrow when Flash fans and Sea[Shield] fans can once again live in harmony.

FakeSteve : I'll have last words if MBC loses, because I'm going to kill myself if that happens. My last words, in that case, would probably be like "HURGHGGHKKK!!!!" or whatever sound I make when I drive the dagger into my own heart.

Too easy, Flash/Luxury/Forgg are going to be given a day off as Stats rapes MBC. But in all honesty it’ll come down to being Flash vs Light in one of the middle sets and the winner of that match will go onto win it for their team, seeing how badly Flash crushed light last time it shouldn’t be a problem for him to do it again.

In the past KTF were similar to Real Madrid - having a lineup full of superstar players. Now though, besides Flash, the current KT lineup consists of young homegrown talents like Violet and Hoejja. Do you miss the old KTF or you prefer "the new one" instead?

Scaramanga : It’s hard to say, I came into progaming around the time flash won the GSI so I didn’t see too much of Yellow/Reach/Ra but what I saw was so amazingly awesome . I love the new players that have come through for rolster but they are so frustratingly inconsistent so I’d have to say I miss KTF.

Scaramanga : Yes, for the love of god yes.

Scaramanga : I think that SC1 will suffer a little bit from the introduction of SC2 but it won’t kill it off completely. They are two different games so its not that SC1 will have something more to offer but something different to offer.

Scaramanga : Yeah I’ll miss winners league, I don’t understand why they don’t have 4 round of winners league and 1 round of the conventional proleauge. As for the top six, the way CJ or Wemade have been playing they are likely to slip out of the top six and allow Stars to come up, if Hwaseung decide to stop sucking they have a chance to make it back into the top six but I don’t see it happening.

The TL staff mostly consists of MBC fans. Do you have something to say to them, or to the other MBC fans out there?

Scaramanga : I pity you guys. The beat down that KT is going to give you will scar you for the rest of your life. Chances are that all the MBC players and the coach will quit playing sc forever because of the demoralizing embarrassment they’ll get from this. You guys wont want to be MBC fans after this match so you may as well start cheering for a good team now, like KT :D
