I think its the other way around, Jaedong wasted a ton of lurkers and hydras trying to attack 12.
Bisu won because of it, but he almost threw a sure won game away. He literally attack-moves when he feels like he's won, and sometimes it bites him in the ass.

I'm not sure you can blame Bisu at the end there. his army was REALLY zlot heavy because JD was massing so many hydras and lings. when JD popped out 8 lurks to defend his last base Bisu was in a really bad spot with all those zlots. he tried to slowpush the lurks with storm but it didnt work, so he had to go for the all-out assault to kill them in one shot, cause he wasnt getting another obs and couldnt really risk losing the one he just got from home.
JD threw away the game with that attack at the 12. He was ~5 bases to 2 working on 3 before losing his entire army and letting Bisu easily claim that extra base with gas.

yes, that was strange, lost 7 lurkers for nothing, why? Jae sometimes is not himself, well it happens sometimesm, I wish it never

very exciting game, but it was exciting because many mistakes were made. JD could have sealed it or pull further at many times, yet he failed a lot with his unit control, made stupid decisions (loading up 8 hydras in 2 ovies, and flying right where he knew the corsairs are heading, not even dropping the hydras, not that it would ve mattered, it was a bad idea) defilers were terribly ineffective.
Bisu could have done a much clearer job himself, he almost dropped the ball
At one point I thought "bisu is fucked", later I thought "JD is fucked", then at the very end JD was playing tower defense and Bisu burned a ton of units breaking through that lurker wall and lost almost all of his main. Ballsy micro at the end from Bisu, if he screwed up any of that (reaver dodging sunken shot?) he would have been in huge trouble
