He went up to 7/8 gates on 2 base to break the contain, so if he didn't expand to 7 immediately it'd end up being 3 base to 1 mining anyways. I think his decision was fine, it was just his execution that was lacking. That and not building a single reaver all of midgame. expanding to a far location is not how you use a significant army advantage in pvz. it's just not. you have to either cripple the zerg right there and then, OR take a base that allows you to continue controlling the center. kal should have killed 3 oclock, and then keep pressuring the zerg with his army lead while storming everything. he gave up the center on his own, and proceeded to get spanked by dark swarms. | ||

Not to mention a lot of it died to swarm +lurkerling. I agree Jaedong cornered Kal on 2base, which allowed him to gather a massive army. When he broke out, he had to compete with LJD for map control, which, despite the razing of 9, he didn't get. JD always had the position across Kal's bridges, and Kal was like a roman legion in a british swamp, with all the cheap lings eating goons and all.Still, that push into the main, with so many storms from Kal, ... <3 ^^ | ||
