What about that game (it could have been against Modesty) when his drone gliched when constructing the extractor so he had to kill it with his other drones and then rebuild the extractor. I remember him saying somewhere that it was the game he was the most proud of himself.
Popzags, you are a hero. I have never even seen that game against Oov before.

After losing some lings early in the game, he is forced to place a sunken in his main. Jaedong is behind at this extremely early stage in the game. I'll leave it at that.

At the man's career height, he can plow through any opposition. The difference between him and Flash is that Flash run away from problems and constantly keep his opponents on their foot by inventing new strategies at every single game. While with Jaedong, you know that he is coming toward you, the tactics that he will use. But you simply cannot put a halt on the man because his superior physique.

I especially like the use of the word "physique." I imagine Jaedong jumping through both booth screens to tackle his opponent, NFL style.
I feel that whereas Flash is famous for his pure, unrelenting dominance, Jaedong and more so Bisu were famous for moments of brilliance in which they simultaneously attacked six spots or had the ridiculous game sense to scout out a proxy 2 gate or something like that. They all play different styles spectacularly well and are a testament to the brilliance of Brood War.

This man speaks wisdom!
Btw, kade, go watch Batoo OSL finals Jaedong vs Fantasy. One of the greatest finals ever.! You can try watching his all-kills in WinnersLeague 2009. He was literally unstoppable at that time (my preference is his all kill vs KT, such a monster). You can even try his Bacchus 2009 semifinals against Fantasy again. The games are great, and they are even greater if you know the background
Fantasy won against Jaedong in Proleague finals and secured his team a victory, he has done so twice! JAedong lost to Calm in MSL semifinals and that was veery strange because first and foremost it was ZvZ and a bo5. Every true Jaedong fan knows that he had lost only 3 or so bo5 until that time. So everyone thought that Jaedong has started his decline, but... Plexa said it amazingly: ''Jaedong is an amazing individual. If he is ever classed as a bonjwa by future generations, then the trait he should be remembered for is his unwavering determination to succeed against all odds. A long time ago I argued that Flash was going to become the greatest player alive because of his ability to manipulate people’s mindsets – little could I have imagined that there would be a player that has mental toughness like an ox and does not give in – ever.
Jaedong is the player that is defining this generation of Progaming. Whether you want to accept that fact or not is up to you. As TL's #1 Jaedong anti-fan I’ve been trying to convince myself that he will never truly be the best, but I can’t run from the truth anymore.
No one can stand in Jaedong’s way - he's here to stay.''
I am a great believer in luck. The harder I work the luckier I am.
