The games didn't look like Jaedong today. Especially not taking back the only mutalisk shooting at the evolving spore colony, he just let it die. (Game1) As a very big JD fan, this hurts really.. But JD, dont give up just yet... Always disliked these group stages, bo1 zvz is so greatly dependent on luck. | ||

And with that many fans you gotta have mega pressures, and last asl success' he just didnt play on his level. Well, I hope this isnt the end of his career.... | ||

I think this might just be it. ASL is the only starleague now. he gotta wait another 4 to 5 months for the next one. his deadline for his military service is about to come, and another big reason is his health. oh man this might be his last :’( | ||

At least make it so that it's a best of 3. As necessary as they are... I hate Bo1 groups. JD has been in incredible shape and Bo1s often don't allow a player to reveal his power  a sad day. | ||

Unfortunately JD has lost his grip on bo1s for too long now. I think everyone knows that at pro level zvz is pure random when most winnings depends on starting BO and luck of overlord scout.That cannot be controlled even by top pro players. I think it is impossible between JD Larva Effort Hero Soulkey and so on to have over 50% winrate in bo1 zvz matches. Someday random favors to one, other to another. | ||

I am a big Jaedong fan, i obviously want him to win but i also think that his health should be top priority (though i hope that he knows it best, not just playing because he thinks he has to for his fans) The only thing i truly know is that i will support him no matter what decision he makes, army is coming up as well... | ||

Shuttle played decently, but not extraordinarily well as Tastosis said I'm not sure I agree with that statement, for me that game on Third World vs Larva was kind of mindbblowing, specially the overall aproach Shuttle did to play there. | ||

If we must have dual tournament groups, I would prefer to see Bo3s all the way through or at least in elimination games. This is not because I would like to see Jaedong advance every time (although I would), but rather because I want to see players show their skills more before being eliminated. Players go through a grueling qualifier only to get eliminated in the blink of an eye. I'd like to see them go out with more of a fight, or turn things around if they have the skill to do so. I think players would find this more mentally healthy, and viewers would have more games to watch. The only obstacle is that it costs money to book a stadium. (My ideal tournament format would be Bo5 single elimination from start to finish.) | ||

Just because there's a lot more variance in the results doesn't make it so. Truly great players will advance. JD made obvious mistakes in both games that made him lose. Had he made scourge to snipe ovies for example (1 or maybe 2) and if he micro'd better in the first game (+ better decision making; killing off pool for example) he'd have it in the bag 100% Also, players know who they're going to face in advance, so tactics can be developed to counter the playstyle AND we see most of the time standard play anyway, so coinflip is such a bs statement. If BO1 would truly be coinflips, we'd see much different outcomes every single time. I LOVE JD, been following him since Lecaf, but hes just not up to par at the moment. | ||
