Oz played Jaedong first hoping that he could breeze through the KT lineup and be better warmed up to face Flash. I'm guessing KT predicted this and sent Violet (great at PvZ Zealot timing attacks which always seem to catch Jaedong).

Smart strategy by KT.

This reminds me of the end of All Quiet on the Western Front when Paul Bäumer (Jaedong) tries to get to the butterfly and gets shot by a sniper (Violet) and then there is a shot of all his now dead friends (Hwaseung Oz) walking and turning to face the camera then walking on.

I'm pumped for this and I hope Jaedong can do an AK!

Wrong, I remember a loss to Kal in 2010.

jaedong has let corsairs absolutely rape him for three straight games in a row. something is up with jaedong. if he can't win an msl that's paved for his victory, then maybe the tyrant really has fallen.

over one game?

ok

I haven't lost total faith in JD unlike others. It felt like Jaedong wanted to play around with some weird ass build, and got played with instead.
I bet if it was Bisu or Flash he would've played standard. Standard = rape.

He lose 2 times to stork and Light, loses to Bisu badly, his ace match apperance is bad. He doesnt win the importans games. He also lost to Hogil because of reatrded decisions.

Jaedong and his "make no army" build. Terrible. I can't believe the Oz coaches haven't advised him against it.

It worked beautifully against Stats last time around. Benzene is not suitable for it, JD's fourth was really late.

i noticed the second i saw that forge not spinning; the +1 wasn't coming. he knew the +1 was applied to air, meaning he had to go hydras. why did he play defensively against overlord harass? what were defilers going to do in that position? i don't understand. he knew storm was coming, he knew zealots rape hydras. why the rush for defiler?

questions that need answers :'( all the hype is dead. fuck.

man that has to be the worst play I've seen from Jaedong in a really long time. Looked liked he was counting on just rushing to defilers and controlling the game from there, but violet had way too big of a lead.... and i cant really figure out where that lead came from lol. I guess he got more overlords than I realized and was able to double expand with no pressure at all. i would say that it was risk to take the 4th so fast and that it paid off but I dont think it even really kicked in before the attack started.

man wtf. im going to bed.

it's not that we don't believe, but we are being realistic in our team's chances right now.

while jd is still impressive, he has not been getting those clutch wins that you need from your team ace.
