I almost always root for Terran in TvP but at least Jangbi used to abuse the matchup the right way - seemed like he used to do every abusive thing in the matchup exactly right and you had to give him credit for that. | ||

Midas however moving out with a mega army. Midas also taking 6, which is discovered by a zealot and now Jangbi attacks towards 6, losing tons of zealots to mines, but still more army there | ||

I don't think the matchup changed that much either. It's not like TvP or ZvT or PvZ which are more "unstable" (harder to maintain dominance in). PvT is a staple matchup for P and for the best PvT player ever to fall this much without a huge metagame shift baffles me to this day. Well, he wasn't doing great around the time that protoss players sacrificing unit count for the arb tech became mainstream and used every game. Jangbi's style really flourished with large army battles and storming well. His macro and storm micro was what made him so strong pvt. He was also aggressive and the fast arb style of play is more passive. What I mean to say that there was a meta game switch. It wasn't a sudden thing like the Flash build but it did happen. Jangbi was owning around the time that arbs were becoming the staple late game unit instead of carriers (due to the flash build) but still weren't rushed every single game on two base like now. They were teched towards more around the time your 3rd base was up and running and around the time you started adding mass gates. now it's tech towards arbiter around the time you're starting your natural half the time and the other half is soon after. | ||

Stasis on a few frontal vultures and vessel creates a nice half wall for Midas's tanks to stick behind a few storms deal a lot of damage but a lot of the army still remaining but jangbi attacks from below still the tanks prevail! | ||
