Jangbi vs Yellow[arnc] SPL Spoilers follow
Just finished watching jangbi vs yellow from tonights proleague games. Im at a loss as to how jangbi planned to win the game.
For those who didn't see it, Jangbi 2 gated at his choke on outsider, pressured with first three zealots and was repelled fairly easily. Then he proceded to fast expand with about 3 zealots for defence and yarnc simply attacked with about 2 control groups of lings.
Since jangbi had only 2-3 zealots and they were busy preventing a runby yarnc had free reign over the surface area of jangbi's gateways and took them down in quick fasion ending the game.
I felt as though even a C level zerg could have done the same thing and won the game. Surely jangbi practiced the build order, but I cant see any way he could have though he would win that way without at least 1 cannon to defend from a zergling break.
Anyone care to shed some light on what he was thinking? I really cant understand what was going through his mind

He got too greedy and built a core before his forge..

I guess that's what happens when you try to macro as little as possible to get that expo up faster. I didn't watch it, but to me it sounds like a fluke game. Afterward jangbi probably said to himself, "Really jangbi, really?"

He clearly intended to avoid that situation by holding two zealots at yarnc's ramp. But then they weren't there anymore and he got roflpwned. Terrible, terrible game.
|
The way I see it, he took his zealot off the zerg's ramp to try to harrass the zerg's expo. This allowed the zerg out of his base freely.
If he kept his 2 zealots on the opponents ramp they probably would've stalled long enough for him to have a cannon up before zerglings got there. Instead they were not held up at all and he instantly lost the game.
|
No forge until Z's speedlings leave his base = no timing for cannons.
Not sure what JangBi was thinking, but he was clearly too slow to react to Yarnc's push.

i actually played a game exactly like that recently.. he was obviously trying to cut a lot of corners.
