that was still a valiant fight considering the disadvantage JD had several times throughout the match...

great game!

(gotta admit ZvZ is a bit of a guilty pleasure of mine, it's fast and brutal, why does everybody hate it?!)

He shouldn't have went for 9 pool on this large map, ain't 9 pool for early aggression, planning to end the game extremely early?

that truly was an amazing zvz. i seriously thought jd was dead in the beginning and after the huge muta battle.. though he lost, he almost made an epic comeback. gg. both players played
amazingly

Yeap, it was pretty back and forth : ) JD's muta engagement and going for the ling counter attack was bad : \

Good game. It was always gonna be difficult coming back after being so behind at the start. SK played well though.

The first large muta battle that lasted half a minute was freaking awesome

Yeah, longest muta battle I ever saw
it was so tense since you couldn't tell who was winning

JD's BO was off, his ling all-in when SK had already reinforced his army from 2 hatch was bad, his later muta assault on SK's nat (which had 2 sunkens!) wasn't a good idea either. He also swallowed way too many scourge, didn't protect his 3rd from ling harassment... Good game from SK, but JD did not look good.

I guess that is why you don't engage like that, but instead go hive and ground army.

Ahh nice upgrade timing by Soulkey. Replay shows that his muta attack upgrade finished just as JD's huge muta+scourge force attacked. That made all the difference.

I'm surprised JD went 9pool on LM, with the kinda long rush distance, but he's definitely been favoring early lings these days
