I...voted for Kwanro. Ugh, I feel all dirty. I too want to see Stork vs Skyhigh, here's hoping that Skyhigh will be his harass game. And uh ggaemo...just don't look really bad, okay?
The Twin Cannons need to fire here, here's hoping ggaemo doesn't upset Skyhigh, show's how imba ZvP is when I'm not worried about the borderline S-Class T but the Z B-Teamer is a potential worry .
barracks seems to be holding off jangbi well though....there is a chance he can win is it me or does barracks look like some korean actor i cant rmember who...

Yeah, but at one point Barracks was like 180vs100 in supply, and still lost all his units. Now he's near mined out.
man jangbi really should have tried recalling all those zealots onto the tanks rather than charging the sieged position from the front, half his stasises were making walls against himself
This map seems a bit hard to pvt in since the expansions have little min and requires the p player to expand a lot, its hard to defend all expansions and you saw how jangbi had to spend like 600 min per base on cannons.

aside from the poor micro compared to game 1, I think he just threw alot of units away
i think that jangbi has this easily. barracks was ready for a counterattack reaver push, and he's got a wraith...which will do nothing against the eight goons that jangbi has

Bad execution by Barracks lost him the game really early on. Too bad. I often do the exact same build as he did in this game; I got annoyed by having to put up with early goon pressure in every game and decided to design a build to punish the fuckers for it. It often fails just as bad as it did for Barracks here. :D When it works, though, it's hilarious.

Is JangBi called the Perfect Toss?
Well, his more common nicknames are Heo Neu Nim in reference to the Korean word Ha Neu Nim (God as in the Christian one), and The Allmighty, but during the Six Dragons era he was referenced sometimes as 완벽토스, which rawly translates into Flawless/Perfect Toss.
well jangbi probably was afraid of a five pool, so he had to send out two probes anyway. He was also betting that his probe micro was better than kwanro, and 2 probes with a 12 nex is somewhat close to 1 drone lost with a 12 hat.
jangbi's probably not that far behind, and it was worth it to make sure that kwanro was playing somewhat standard.
although it means that jangbi is going to end up losing 3 probes if kwanro dosen't do antyhing too irregular
I don't know if they ever practised against each other when he was on CJ, but if they did, can you imagine how often Idra would feel the urge to write ''fucking skilless newbie'' and ''you win by doing stupid shit'' to Kwanro? :D

kwanro has been able to rebuild his drone numbers back up to reasonable levels, which means that jangbi needs to start killing more drones/expansions, and stop worrying about killing units so much.
ninja lurker dropped for kwanro, that has a few probe kills at jangbi's expansion
Wow, this storm on scourges looked nice. Again powerful storms vs lurkers and Kwanro loses nat. But JB doesn't mine at 3 since he has lurkers in min. line
Is that Jangbi's worst game ever? I haven't seen that many, but damn that was such a shame for him to lose after those awesome plays at the start... god that sucked for him. Some of those storms were beautiful though.

I just can't believe he lost the game after all those dt kills and all those beautiful storms. His macro just suked.
On October 21 2009 18:44 MuffinDude wrote: it feels like jangbi's macro is seriously lacking
This. He was reinforcing really slowly with three working bases. He was also too indecisive going into Kwanro's nat and main when he clearly had the advantage.
He always seemed to lack archons after the storms to stop lings from just running his goons over. Entertaining game; I find myself strangely depressed at the outcome.
You guys have high standards kwanro did a great job hanging on and he was behind for soo much of that game. He did show some competence in the matchup imo. Jangbi's storms were amazing as usual, but he wasted so many units when he had the lead. Kwanro played a really clever zerg from about halfway through to the end and showed exactly why Z>P at the moment.
I didn't see the beginning but it looks like Kwanro's hidden expansion gave him the economic advantage he needed to win. Despite losing drones to dts/units, he had a full expansion and 2 hatches of production that Jangbi didn't know about early on. Jangbi kept suiciding units at the well-defended natural while the 3rd was built up. With better scouting, Jangbi could've destroyed this base and only through that would he gain the econ advantage, he was behind Kwanro in econ the whole game.
Anyone watch Day9's commentary about Bisu and Shine on this map. I thought Jangbi did a good job exploiting the long distances between the zerg expos with decent army movement. Its too bad he couldn't macro or take more expos.

jangbi did well that game...the only thing that killed him was the crackling injustice. its just not fuckin fair that a protoss has to spend a shit load of resources to defend his bases--at least 5 cannons, robo bay + reavers, 1 or more HT to storm. jangbi lost because he didnt pour his entire bank into defending, even though he butt raped and bitch slapped kwanro all game long. any1 that thinks this is completely fair and balanced is kidding themselves, period.
The number of times Kwanro has managed to Cannon-break or runby against Stork and Jangbi is simply unbelievable.
I will never forget the FOUR consecutive games Kwanro managed to do a Cannon-break against Stork earlier this year in MSL/PL (and Kwanro somehow managed to lose two of those games too)
Once again that just seemed very amateurish from Jangbi there... let the lings in and either wasn't watching properly to block... or didn't do it well enough :S
He saw the lings coming and cannoned to defend but wow he still let them through :S
But back on the game before, I concur Jangbi's macro was lacking, while attacking his 6 and 3 expo's only had 3 cannons, isn't it standard to put about 5/6 minimum at that point of the game?
that was just very bad decision making. If kwanro bothered to make more lings, he could've easily surrounded and killed those cannons. I don't know why you'd leave the entrance to your base so open like that.
Protoss should stop doind this, it's like if zerg would 2hatch muta every single game in zvt, zerg will rape your current fe stuff. 1st game Jangbi had a crapload of hts loaded with storms and kwanro had nothing and was getting wrecked and still won because he had time to grow huge. It just seems sair tech is a waste now, zerg has no problem losing ols and dealing with it overall. Ptoross refuse to cheese, use timing attacks and do something unexpected. Backho proved, even the silliest stuff will work if unexpected, zerg is too prepared to deal with the standard.
He should have just kept 4/5 probes at ramp seeing he is mass lings and when makes a zealot to pull of 2-3 probes..he was just acting dumb and greedy moving the probes off
Why everyone bashing Kwanro when they should be bashing Jangbi?
Jangbi played like absolute garbage - it's hard to believe this guy was arguably the #1 player in the world at one point less than one year ago. Once upon a time you saw your favorite player was playing Jangbi and you thought "oh shoot, this is going to be hard". Now he is seriously terrible.

The first map is hell of imba, like harmony. Protoss expansion goes down quickly in different directions, even if he is losing, sending a few speed lings in different directions to take down nexus is enough. Not to mention the choke is able to stop the whole protoss army.

Jangbi could've easily had at least one HT at 6 to prevent a couple of lings from taking down the entire expo...

That may be true but Jangbi's lack of understanding in PvZ really showed through. Of course as a progamer he knows what he's doing but he at the pro level the difference in what decisions you make. Jangbi made the wrong decision over and over again to reinforce his army instead of his expansions, which turned out to be a disaster as he lost 6 o'clock a couple times to virtually zero cost (just a bunch of lings each time). He definitely could have held 6 if he really wanted to.
In that game Jangbi got to storm all he wanted - Kwanro never even made a Muta, and Jangbi also killed like 30 Drones. Bisu or even Kal/Movie would never have lost that.

What he made 3 finals (two MSL and GOM) in a span of like 3 months. He was clearly a top 5 player at one point and there was a point in time where he was the favorite against anyone other than Bisu and Jaedong (maybe not even Jaedong). It feels like forever ago but this was around the time when Jaedong got eliminated from leagues by Free and TEMPEST.
Jangbi's PvZ was never great, that much is true. But like for instance the PR where Leta was #1, Jangbi deserved it much more.
Edit: I say all this as a guy who never has and never will be a fan of Jangbi. This is simply what he was like back then - scary.
As long as Protosses lose to a SPOTTED zergling runbye with enough time to prepare... They deserve to get kicked out of the leagues. As long as Protosses lose after raping 30 Drones because he's to stupid to defend his expansion... They deserve to get kicked out of the leagues.
This has nothing to do with Imba or anything.
Jangbi just played like ass.
Seriously... Maybe the fast Mutaswitch in the midgame to snipe tempalrs is a bit to strong... But it's not like suddenly everything Zerg does since i don't know how long is imba.

In case you didn't notice, he moved the probes to protect the cannons. You can't know if the lings will attack the cannons or will move, and even kwanro didn't know. He just made the decision based on the situation at that moment.

Ok, I admit that when he transfered to Stars I thought it was going to be fun to watch him break his head running into brickwalls with no risk to CJ, but I just wish it didn't work against Jangbi.
i think kespa tries to ENFORCE having a new Emporer. bonjwas are good money, they have fans and get known to a greater audience, they are spoken about. so kespas does everything to make jaedong-favoured maps to make him the new King of Starcraft.
edit: and of course this does not only help jaedong but all the other nublet zergs also, but with a 80% win rate vs zergs this is not a real problem is it?

If Stork gets knocked out, I think I will take a really long hiatus from SC. At least until maps change/protoss find some new builds, and I don't think that will happen anytime soon.
After looking at his rivals' downfall, Stork needs to change strategies. If he proceed on the normal macro game he gonna get raped. 1st map, 2nd map, and 3rd is heartbreak ridge. GG

He is a beast TvT but yeah he's overrated at the moment in the other two matchups. Once upon a time he won a TvP against Best on Medusa 1.0 (yes, this was very very hard at the time) and he hasn't played too many TvPs since.
It's unfortunate because he's got a style that has a ton of potential but his TvZ simply did not look good here today.
lol Stork should convince himself he's facing JD and rape ez.
Good chance we gonna see another rape of uninspired standard fe build, though i want to believe in Stork, reavers, cheese, carriers and other stuff, he knows how to use it.

if by winning against jaedong you mean a 5 minute game and 7 minute game, and losing all 3 that go over 10 minutes then yes.

The interesting part about brand new maps is that Stork had two matchups to prepare for on two new maps. And, his more likely potential opponent (Skyhigh) has an aggressive style.

No problem :D, check top left (featured threads) for the All-Time Pro Scene Music thread, with updates by the week of current music. Good if you can't find a song.
it was painful to watch seriously. ggaemo played so bad and without any conception. he deserved to lose that game. hope we'll see a better game in the 2nd. Go Stork btw ~~
There's a reason every other zerg makes a wall at his nat and puts a few hydra behind it ggaemo. It's so he doesn't get zealot rolled the moment speed comes out.
Yes this is how toss is supposed to be played. Make assasin attacks and herassments multiple places, then the zerg is bound to slip up somewhere. And if he dosent, that just means he is better than you.

Ever since the Fall of Bisu in this OSL, people have been calling you the 'Last Hope' How do you feel about the recent PvZ?
"At first I thought Zerg was imbalanced and overpowered. But ever since I started practicing hard, I started to realize it wasn't that Zerg was imbalanced but rather it was the Zerg Players were alot more skilled than Protoss Players at this point of time.
I will practice hard and show a better self this season"

Stork is really scary when he actually practices. Jangbi though... It feels like he just lacks confidence in ZvP. He needs to either practice like hell, or start watching One Piece.

Thank god Stork pulled through. I almost didn't want to watch the 2nd match after seeing jangbi's facepalm perfomance against Kwanro.
Although I must say, Stork had the OP advantage in both games. So it's still up in the air how he'd fare against more polished ZvP players. I'm just glad there's still a good chance for a Legend of the Fall.
On one hand it's great to have Stork advance, on the other it's bad that popular variations of currently ineffective fe sair build worked, it can delay development of other builds most zergs aren't ready for or cheesy plays.
Watching the recast on the OGN stream now - before reading the thread - I have to say I've got two impressions: 1) Jangbi's macro was god-awful, especially game 2 vs Barracks and game 1 vs Kwanro. Although I think Kwanro's early third was huge - I'm not sure all the drone kills even really evened things up for Jangbi, because: 2) Eeeesh that's a tight choke at the nat on Eye of the Storm. Also he kept losing obs, that didn't help the break. By the time he did get in and trash Kwanro's nat, it was way too late.
the one time i LB for a CJ player is the one time they decide to disappoint me. God damn skyhigh, i thought you were a lock to beat ggaemo! Freaking OSL and their upsets...

jangbi you once agian show that you are not good.
Stork is fcking awesome and Jangbi is slumping, but comeon... u cant compare ggameo and kwanrol
jangbi had to practice for 2 matchups against 2 decent players(msl finalist zerg) while Stork got to face Oz's dirty little secret. No way can u compare the skill levels of these 2 based on thess Osl games and say jangbi sucks
Skyhigh's TvZ is mediocre, Ive said this for ages...hes hasnt really beaten any "good" zergs, I believe in time it will become beastly. And thank god stork one theres way too many zergs, too bad free didnt qualify but even he might have trouble with these maps.
And Jangbis PvZ is also mediocre like half his wins are padded, mainly by yarnc, who im pretty sure has beaten him the last couple of times hes played. Having watched Jangbis games he basically seems to dominate lesser zergs with basically pure harrass, or a nice timing attack.

makes me happy that at least one progamer acknowledges the truth instead of hopping on the ZvP = Imba bandwagon. Get the same amount of multitasking and midgame understanding as the good zergs nowadays and Im sure tosses will start to beat zerg again. It just takes a while to shake the "FE -> Sair -> ill see what he does and roll that shit ezpz" habit which was formed by Bisu.

it was a great strategy that went extremely stale because EVERYONE started to copy it, second by second. Otherwise I agree that I like Stork's answer.
Stork's Gf better not see those pics with tossgirl, or zergs will be the least of Storks worries!
Stork is the best Protoss ever. 6 fcking years and still performing amazingly as always. Name one other protoss let alone player who remained this good for this long. I think Khan's become the new Oz and Stork is their Jaedong.
