Jaedong on SC2 Hive Tech

In other news, it only takes me 5 minutes (down from 30) to figure out what tool I'm looking for to do what I need. Gimp amateurs unite.

I personally find this in pretty poor taste. OZ fans are already pretty sad about the break up. They don't want to think about the possibility Jaedong will stop playing Broodwar no matter how unlikely it is.

Um.... I don't even get the joke here?

The coach asks what Jaedong is going to do in ZvT, and he responds with a SCII strat and then July invites him to play SCII and then there's a picture of MVP? What?

Pretty sure it is a reference to MVP vs Nestea Blizzcon 2011.

Of course, you should never explain a joke.
Thank God and gunrun.

I think it was a game of MVP vs July, where July gets heaps of Ultras and they all get sniped.

Nah, it's perfectly fine. It's not funny, but If one honestly has a serious issue with a joke even implying that their favourite player is going to switch, I'd advise that person to step back, take a deep breath and chill out.

it's because of that game in the last season of GSL (I think it was the last season that is...) of July vs MVP, where MVP got up to like 15 ghosts was able to snipe all of July's broodlords and ultras before they could even do any damage at all.

if you included a screencap of ghosts sniping the sh-- out of everything after mvp's picture, it would make more sense

The idea is fine. I don't know any Oz fans who would object to Hwaseung House, it's just too funny and awesome. But this requires better execution. I didn't get the joke at all. Try making it a bit more obvious to people who haven't followed SC2 for a long time.

Yeah, this one was a little bit of a stretch. It refers to the game that I can't remember when it was, but it was MvP vs July on Metal where MvP turtles with ghosts basically all game long and July could do nothing to break it (it ends with July's bunch of Ultras getting sniped down by ghosts).

Yeah, I had NO clue what was going on. Why would the Oz coach be asking about SC2 strats if Oz isn't even an SC2 team?

It would have made sense if you approached the concept differently, I think.

Yeah MVP and July have too much history for the intent of the comic to be clear. Is this a reference to when July knocked MVP out of code S back in with just a baneling bust and thus Jaedong is 'mad' because he didn't need such an elaborate strategy, or is it a reference to GSL August when MVP crushed July's hive tech army and thus Jaedong is 'mad' because his strategy won't work?

Look at the thread linked for the kinda mindset where you read it. This is meant for those that have read the thread (Hwaseung Oz is switching to SC2).

Yeah ghosts would probably be a good missing link for the guys that didn't get it. Yet, I didn't want to carry it out too far, putting an in-game pic instead of player's faces. Think it'd be better with a mad/depressed July (His full hive tech options destroyed by MVP) to contrast the happy one of MVP. NesTea/MVP was the second famous example of mass ghosts against Zerg lategame (For those following SC2 and not just BW).

Live and learn =).

The joke is that Jaedong follows washed-up BW progamers to steal losing strategies.

Am I the only one that actually got the joke? >.>

I like it!
Remember not only to say the right thing in the right place, but far more difficult still, to leave unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting moment.

No, I got it and liked it as well! Not sure why everyone else needs more clarity to be honest.
