What are you talking about? Jaehoon was pissed that he wasn't playing against Flash or Bisu, players who would actually be near his his S+ level. So he decided to give Fantasy a few shuttles filled with units to lessen his overall advantage over Fantasy. He also decided to just move his army around while Fantasy pushed, to give Fantasy extra time to attack.

You see, it's just not easy being a Bonjwa of Jaehoon's caliber. He must constantly give away units in order to make games entertaining. That's why it seemed that Jaehoon played badly. He's just giving his opponent just enough rope to hang themselves with.

Unfortunately for him, he screwed up and gave away too much stuff to Stork, who he forgot was also semi-decent. Otherwise, that was easily an all-kill.

Rather, he thought Stork was too sexy, so he secretly decided to lose. Due to stork's sexiness this won't constitute match fixing.

At the end of the day, that was truly Savior's downfall; His opponents weren't sexy enough.

he obviously did it to free up his supply after epic storm, because well, what are HTs without energy good for? Having 4 arbiters to support your carriers is way better.

the same goes for "why did he let the tank live"? Well he had too many probes and no time to kill them, as he was busy with micro intense battle on the other side of the map. That move was actually genious, because probes were slowly dying while still mining crucial and well counted amount of mineral and the tank could've been one shoted when the amount of probes was optimal.

Dailyesports wrote a whole article on Jaehoon (including something about Free Agency o.O), can anyone help translate?

http://esports.dailygame.co.kr/news/read.php?id=38965

Edit:
Now I can guess the reason why he had a fight with Sea.

Waaay too long article for the likes of me, but I skimmed over it and immediately locked eyes when I saw "Lim Yo Hwan" in the article.

Interesting trivia: Jaehoon, like most other players out there, wanted to be a pro gamer because of Boxer. He first started playing Starcraft in middle school and started out playing as Terran, but you know what made him convert to Protoss?

That's right. Mantoss.

When he saw the Mantoss defeat Boxer in the 2002 Starleague, his whole world changed right there.

Just thought I'd let everyone know this fun piece of info. Of course, since the article didn't have any more mention of Boxer in it after the beginning, I immediately stopped reading.

Why did he fight with Sea though? o.o

Most of the comments are cheering Jaehoon on since he's been playing so well recently, but the comments revealed the reason why Jaehoon got in a fight with Sea... There are some really disappointed but sad fans out there.

Now I see why you are so sad Ryo. I didn't expect this from Jaehoon.

Well Free Agency means contract dispute with MBC, which is what I gather from the article (correct me if I'm wrong Spica). Jaehoon might very well retire? Sigh.
+ Show Spoiler +

This is not the first time Sea had a disagreement with one of his teammates over this. July/Bisu leaving was quite disappointing for Sea. And in mid 2009, there was a rumor that he had a quarrel with Hyun (at one time, they never stood together in photos, always Light between them). Of course later in 2009, Hyun had that FA thing. But ultimately he resigned with MBC so all was well again.

I just read the above article, and its really just a story about Jaehoon and how he got to be where he is now. I didn't read anything about sea in it. Some points to note from the article:

Jaehoon is really good during practice but becomes very nervous during games, which is partly why he doesn't achieve great results.

Jaehoon considered retiring last year but with coach lineup change, the coaches persuaded him to stay at least one more year and give it a shot, which he did.

The story is kind of depressing, Jaehoon seems like a really solid player and he practices a shit ton but hasn't been able to reach his goals or become a really good player yet. I hope he can do everything he wants to.
