Which is unbelievable for me to say, someone who plays zerg/protoss and NEVER terran, who hates terran for their years of domination, and of course the siege "meat tank" push, of which I enjoy push-breaking them into oblivion over n over n over...

A fascinating look back and interesting stats...but I feel the author could have done a better job coming through on his assertion that by breaking down the stats by era, he could explain every fluctuation in balance - his descriptions often don't seem to correlate with or explain the data in the charts. Excellent article nonetheless.

Thank you SO much for this translation!

This was great, thank you. Really helps to understand how the maps and strategic innovations are tied.

Thanks for the great translation. But one zerg in particular already figured out mech. Yarnc is 14-2 last 16 ZvTs, Terrans must watch out, because this kid is dismantling them like crazy. He has a good shot of winning the OSL if he doesnt run into Bisu/Stork/JD.

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.

Twice, but your point is still valid.

JD didn't use queens just once.

He used them on Fantasy, Hwasin, Firebathero, and Skyhigh.
