Very nice articles thank you; is there any reason Jaedongs experimentations with queens were left out? Were they just not relevant enough?


Basically only Jaedong can use the Lurker/Defiler/Queen combination to any effectiveness because of just how much multitasking and raw APM it requires.

When Jaedong says he struggles to use a certain unit combination there isn't much hope for us mortals >.>

Do you know the total number of wins in a professional Korean sc match of Terran versus Zerg Win Ratio Statistic? Of ALL the games played of course. I remember someone posted in on TL before but I forgot the thread


PoP made a thread about requesting TLPD stats, there are some numbers somewhere in here http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=82758

This translation is absolutely amazing, thanks. Does he detail anywhere how he went about making that graph?

I'm so glad somebody finally managed to translate this article. Thank you so much for the hard work. Kim Yeon Woo is one of my favourite posters in Korean communities and this article sheds so much light on the magnitude of the effect that strategic trends has on the balance of this match up.

Thanks for translating this, it was a splendiferous read! Very interesting, although I would've liked it to go further back in time.

Jaedong is like the nal_rA of Zerg.

nal_rA did Forge FE, but he was the only one good enough during his time to actually win with that build.

Jaedong did Queens, but he was the only one good enought during his time to actually win with that build.

In due time, someone will immortalize Queens.

I don't think that was a trend. It was certainly useful, but not useful enough for all Zergs to pick up on it and etch it into a viable build into the annals of ZvT.

Yea, I figured. I gotcha now

Very cool but I'm confused.

2. December 2006 to March 2007 - Longinus and Reverse Temple, the 1rax cc


Perhaps I'm ignorant, but weren't Terran doing 1rax CC on Rush Hour 3? Maybe Rush Hour 3 was during this time and I'm just getting my chronology screwed up.

Ah common. I love Jaedong too, but he only did it once. It's hard to call it a foray into Queen usage when he hasn't tried it again since.
