These kinds of game reversals simply don't happen in sc2  (Yes it does but this is not the place to start that conversation. Let's just enjoy both games as they are! | ||

All he needed to do was defend. And defend he did. Snow was basically all-in for the majority of the game. The expo was his last ditch effort to get back into a lost game. That and that successful DT :| | ||

I think most of the tension came because of 2 base toss attack, with 3 up it wouldn't be so powerfull, but JD always walks the line, I do seriously hope that his "in control" will not lead him to silly losses, the way it did in PL | ||

Kid was so good and I felt he still had a way to go until peaking. I think he could have taken 1-2 more titles if he had continued on. So sad that he retired. | ||

I was just referring to JD's typical style of agressive, harass-oriented play. This time, a Protoss player was bold enough to force him into defence by doing kind of (semi?) all-in. Gonna give props to Snow, even though he probably asks himself now what would happen if he could save that Nexus. | ||
