This is one of the most tense games I've ever watched live, Flying had no idea what hit him when those new units were freed.

Care to explain what the purpose for this wall is?

Ok now I saw it on Sayle's stream and now, in context of the entire game, it made sense that it was just a failure and not fully on purpose like the title suggests.

Do you an idea about those creep blocks back in Dota where chen and crew with Dominators control units and block the ramp with it and make 1 big push after 10 minutes or so? yeah .... that happened LOL

but why can't he just set a rally point to somewhere else and group them together?
I mean those units (the creep in dota) were auto spawned for free after all and so stacking made sense

he made a mistake by leaving the drones at the ramp. this blocked the units from 2 hatcheries for about 5 minutes or so, leaving a ton of units that could not move to the rally. jd was basically holding off the attacks with his small army while the rest of it was left blocked.

He didn't notice it until it became really big. He was constantly attacked from different angles by Flying and still Jaedong held it together with almost half of his units being stuck on that ramp, being useless. LOL

People seem to be so confused here and I don't know why nobody's giving a straight answer. It was obviously a messed up rally and Jaedong was on auto-pilot big time. The location was between bases and outside of his hotkey spots - plus apparently he didn't pay attention to that big hunk in his minimap. He simply didn't notice for a LONG time as I was at the edge of my desk freaking out, thinking about this would haunt him mentally for months if he ended up losing that game because of it. I was even thinking about how crazy it would be if he gg'd being unaware of this mistake.

This was not on purpose, nobody would park 4 drones for the lulz, what are you guys thinking x_x

Edit: Ok a few people explained while I was writing this

The reason why people are confused is because it's not that clear whether it was an accident on JD's part or if he did it intentionally. You could make an argument either way (even though only one is correct).

The drones were blocking the units from getting to their rally point outside the natural. Jaedong didn't realise as he was just macroing and dealing with harrass for 5 or so minutes. The units just kept building up and it's not like pros spend time looking at their own ramp in 4 base macro mode. His supply was also spread out defending at different spots on the map so he couldn't immediately tell his army was smaller than it should've been.

He was in tears after the game. I'm guessing his pride couldn't handle such a public mistake.

edit: people already explained. I was really worried he would gg without ever realising it.

thanks. I didn't see anything but a mess of green and off green and a little brown.

That is pretty funny that it happened. Was this on television?

Yeah, I thought he was doing it on purpose, in which case it would make no sense to do that except to troll your opponent.

The best part was right after the army rolled out, there was doom zoom on Flying with the best "Oh Shit" face I've ever seen watching BW.

Also, i don't understand why anyone could think this was on purpose. If Jaedong just wanted to hold his army back, he would just have rallied them at the base of the ramp.

how did the drones get there in the first place? I've also forgotten cuz I haven't BWed in so long, do they have to be on hold position in order for allied units to not get through?
