Jaedong can be so stubborn imo. If he just got spores then he would have saved all the shit he lost anyway. Then go oldschool hydra/lurk for victory... but no he HAS to go and do muta's again and try to fight both wraiths and mnm. He didn't go muta first so why put himself at a disadvantage by switching to it.

I agree Jaedong is stubborn to a fault recently. Seems like he has a complex over losing his dominance and is out to prove something every time he plays. If he had made one lousy spore at each base the game would have been a lot different I think.

Or if he did insist on fighting the wraiths, why not muta/queen and save yourself the constant overlord losses? One ensnare pulled off right and he wins. It's not like he wasting wasting enough resources already.

Sea is very good at all his matchups, which makes him an excellent terran (leta, forgg, and as you noticed, Light all have holes in some matchups) but I always though of sea and flash differently since they debuted because they showed proficiency in all their matchups

queens nest: 100-100 (a mutalisk)
ensnare research: at least 100-100 (another mutalisk)
2 queens (becuase 1 queen would be too easy to snipe, really): 200-200 (2 more mutalisks)

time spent waiting for queens to come out and researches and energy to be complete: a hell of a lot more than ovie speed and quite a few mutalisks with that

jaedong did react to the initial harass on the economy subparly, imo he should have pulled back all drones to main while his spire was going up to minimize losses with hydras until his spire was up or if he took out enough wraiths with his hydra to get his gas well

i think he could have had a chance after he reduced the wraith number to like 3, because he definetly saw the number of marines growing; he should have gotten lurker research and or thrown up another sunken while he waited for it to come up. even then, the timing would have been razor thin; jaedong was in a very bad position after light raped his drone count

Other than the part about Sea (his TvP and TvT are really good, he's beaten Best and Jangbi this season) I agree. I hate all these 1 matchup players. I mean you don't have to be equally as good at each matchup because obviously your race gives you some advantage over one race and a disadvantage against another, but a skill discrepancy this huge is ridiculous. Light beats Jaedong 2 straight times in proleague and almost beats him in a Bo5 but then gets completely molested by the likes of Jaehoon and Perfectman

Well he wanted to get mutas first but you don't get them out fast enough to stop 2 port wraith so you add a hydra den first. After that you need either mutas or lurkers to defend the oncoming push and theres no choice thats definitively better. Recall Leta vs Effort where effort did what you suggest here (spores --> hydra lurker) and he got completely stomped by leta's wraith micro and the inevitable push.

Jaedong's problem was just that he was in the wrong place at the wrong time kinda thing. Lost way too many drones to be able to mount resistance, and unfortunately medic marine is invincible in TvZ and does like 84327499299 DPS. I agree spores might have helped tho

Honestly, right now beating Jangbi is no accomplishment. If even the weaker WMF terrans beat Jangbi, that would be no upset. Beating Best is impressive, but he did not 'pwn' Best, he won with an early advantage that Best almost recovered from.

i think effort's micro is worse than JD's so that might have worked.

i remember when I discussed JD vs Light somewhere else, we thought that best decision here was to put 3rd hatchery NOT in 3rd expo. That is undefendable vs that build. 2 bases' drones might have been saved.

I realize the cost and time. But now count the mins of overlords and mutas lost that would not have been... the wraiths are completely useless ensnared

I totally agree. Ensnare'd wraiths are so helpless. 400-400 is a good investment to shut out 2 wraith port solid. This is assuming he can ensnare with 2 or 3 tries (which I'm sure for JD is no prob)

the main point of all that was
that is 4 mutalisks you aren't making
and in that time jaedong is fighting for his fucking life
5 mutalisks as opposed to 9 is very different
if he tried to go queens light could very easily just overpower him with onlywraith
not to even mention what would happen if he mixed in marines and medics (which he did).

It was nice to see such a micro-fest. Jaedong obviously felt like he had something to prove so he tried to overpower Light with mutas. He could've won many other ways and I'm sure the coaches had a talk with him after the game. The win would have contributed to raising Oz's spirit and maybe sent the match to Ace.

Jaedong was on three base vs. a teching terran? Granted unsaturated and low army count but Jaedong was in a huge lead if he had denied the early harass better and played more orthodoxly after that. I think the fact that Light went with such a cocky build stirred something inside Jaedong that made him want to dominate Light and put him and every other Terran that doubt him, back in their place. To prove that he is something more by beating them in their own game. If he had played more defensively he could've easily done his patented two-control-groups-of-mutas-until-they-gg build

I think he's trying 3hbp and risking because of this. He thinks this strategy should become a standard just like 14cc and I believe he must be right. So it's worth the risk.
