that's not to say this wasn't exciting as hell, but there were a few WTF moments
Why would you NOT put down Spores when Mutalisk are coming and you have no Spire? That's why you call it a FAILED ling rush, he is commited, if he expand ZerO will get Spires out in time and kill JD (Zeglings are the only thing that JD has). Jesus that was the craziest ZvZ I've ever seen! Stop saying that both of them played bad!
Couldn't Jaedong have A. Expanded or B. Destroyed the nat (where the lair was) and just out turtled zero? After he split the nat and main, zero lost most of his drones so they were on even footing it seemed...
It was part of the game plan. Really nukes Jaedong's BFF Lomo to put him at more rage than the normal tyrant rage, which cause Jaedong to do the proxy sunken.

Jaedong did a muta/ling/offensive sunken all in. He used a lot of his drones to make buildings and apparently didn't bother to make more. Since ZerO expanded fast and managed to miraculously hold, he was able to make spores with his econ, rendering Jaedong's mutas close to useless. Jaedong made a spirited attack with zerglings but at soon as ZerO's spire went up and mutas came out, it was over for Jaedong's last all in attack.

JD cut drones hard, and that ling runby from Zero killed several of his drones so he couldn't expand.

zero put down like 4 spores wtf is that? there is such thing is overkill
his spore placement also wasn't great (at his nat). i think he panicked.

Alright had spires up (no point anymore in destroying it). ZerO technically had a better economy with more drones = better defence against JD. ZerO JUST had to hold off the initial Mutas until his pops up and with 12 hatch from him, his economy will be stronger. You also have to know that JD had one hatch while ZerO had 2 so he can outproduce JD in numbers.
(Vote): Fuck yes (Vote): I don't understand anything anymore (Vote): I don't have good taste in BW
Why are people unable to polsl that dont spoil the game?
How is this a spoiler?
Because "I don't understand anything anymore" obviously means something surprising happens. Given that it's a 9p vs 12h game, that obviously means the 12h wins. This completely defeats the point of even having recommended games in the first place. (The point isn't to feel good clicking the button.)

Thanks for the explanation. Just wondering, since Zero built like 6 spores, couldn't JD have expanded during that time?
Basically for those of you who don't understand: JD was in a terrible position after the first attack failed. There wasn't much he could do to win at that point but being JD he still gave it a pretty good shot.
