um jaedong lux and etc have just as good of a muta micro as july btw the ORIGINAL mutal micro is shark[gm] so Idk what you mean by july having the original muta micro
jaedong, lux.. their micro is garbage? i dont know what the hell you're trying to pull here. i'd like to name games where lux, jaedong dominated their opponents with mutalisk alone, but i can't.
the only games that i can remember off the top of my head is Jaedong vs UpMagiC where Jaedong controlled 2 groups of mutalisks? and YellOw[arnc] owning oov couple years? months? back with BRUTAL mutalisk micro on hitchhiker. OH and that game on fantasy or something where Luxury or yellow i dunno who owned Frozean was it? with crazy mutalisks as well.
heh, yeah July was SOOOOOOO good; but other zergs have just been as good with mutalisks. you can't say that their micro is garbage.

welcome to starcraft 2008. watch any jaedong game on blue storm.
I don't think July's is significantly better than Jaedong's. It's just that at one point, July had unquestionably the best muta micro and that title stuck with him. When I watch his, something does seem to be differently but I'm dismissing it as the results of past influence.

There have been rare cases where jaedong screwed up his muta micro, but its still equally as godly as July.
The Zerg Twins + Jaedong + July all have the greatest muta micro in the pro-gaming scene. Shark is a mediocre player, borderline one trick pony.
One-trick pony?
He does a lot of 2 hatch muta plays and relies heavily on his muta harassment to lift him into winning. if that fails, he's pretty much screwed and tries for some desperate variations in hive tech with sloppy execution..Bleh.
Yeah, like some have said. JD, Savior, Kwanroo, Lux, etc do not have garbage micro, but for some reason July's game seem to be more entertaining than the others or at least makes you realize how good of Mutal usage July has.
I think it would kinda be like watching Savior when he uses the defilers. We associate Savior with defilers, July with mutas and Boxer with marines, so when we see 'em use those; we freak.
Tushin had a good game sense here - on that hydra attack that wouldn't do much if not the reinforcements. He didn't wait for them probably because he wanted to be sure storm didn't kick in. As for his return and stuff, as much as I like July and feel nostalgia for any player from few years ago and the beginnings - we should see 3-4 games of him that drag into late midgame, with lots of troop exchange, where high scale macro, unit production lasts for at least 20 minutes and our hero wins so we can think more of him than <15min tactic user. Winning this tournament should be a good equivalent though.
