I think people just wanna see some change. I don't know about you, but I'm fucking tired of seeing TvZ every single BO5. | ||

After scouting the nine pool and setting up appropriately for it, the way he had his cannon placed there was no way Jaedong knew if he had 1 or 2 without pushing in with a lot of lings. Stork figured Jaedong wouldn't take that risk and I guess the minerals that cannon saved him would've made a certain push just that much sharper? I'm not a PvZ expert but not putting down a cannon when your opponent can't tell if you did isn't a bad idea in and of itself. Unfortunately for Stork, Jaedong felt like Kwanro today. He could have put down a second cannon and still been economically ahead so, no, it's not very smart play. | ||

Can't say that I'm not disappointed though. I kind of expected at least one awesome game. Hopefully Flash vs Free will churn out something epic~ | ||

Also stop that crap about zerg rush imbaness (not you skela), that would be a free win for the protoss if JD wouldnt do it so perfectly,it was just sick  | ||

Cannon perfectly exposed vs 9 pool (because why put it behind a gateway or forge anyway), and you only made one, not to mention your fail block in game four, and your curious decision to fast nexus in game one. Thank you for reminding me why I hate you. Yeah. The games in this series were mostly lost by the loser, not won by the winner through spectacular play. | ||

I really enjoy PvZ and I really like Jaedong =) Im so glad there were 2 protosses in this Ro4...so it doesn't seeem that imbalance against toss lol......just so it doesn't seem that way xD | ||

Even so it's worth it to poke the wall anyway to make sure Protoss isn't skimping. Lo and behold King Silver gets caught skimping. Yeah but with 2 zealots at the wall you're guaranteed losses if you do that. In theory, with his build scouted by that sneaky probe, Jaedong wouldn't commit because he knew Stork knew what was up. It's like that one game where Kal scouted the hydra bust, assumed his opponent would try to transition out of it after getting scouted, but still lost. I really really hate that protoss style of play because with good scouting info you're ALREADY ahead, that's how the ForgeFE is designed, but Protosses seem so uncomfortable with PvZ that they do everything they can and, well, shit like this is why the last year of ZvP has been half hydra busts. | ||

Yeah it wasnt really rape i was just being a fanboy I really want to see some change but i still want to see my boy win his golden mousen, so i was pretty disapointed in stork tonight  | ||

Well said. Protoss is so strong in the mid/late game if the players just allow themselves to get there, but somehow they don't do that... | ||

Um its very easy to make 1 cannon and tech smoothly to corsairs. Honestly this is just blatantly wrong information you are posting. | ||

If Stork simply played safe he'd still be in good shape since JD chose the very economically poor 9pool. | ||

That's why I wouldn't have minded had JD lost this. | ||
