jangbi is a much better player overall when you consider his potential/history, he was the best player in samsung teamhouse and one of the best players in practice (some koreans use the term practice bonjwa for players like this jangbi and magma etc) overall
there is no surprise here tbh i dont know why everyone is surprised its because people put way too much weight on map statistics and like current stats than looking at a player overall
jangbi has been in an SL finals twice (if you count GSL) and soo has never been this far in an individual league. nerves probably have a lot to do with it as well. there are a lot of factors to consider but jangbi is just a higher caliber progamer
That's true but considering BvZ is just unparallelled in BW. He should have been ready for this regardless. Like we all know Bisu can do things in Leagues. Hell he won a Golden Badge, that's nothing to be laughed at. (And I still consider Bisu being the best BW Protoss we ever had.) Soo having a practice partner vs Bisu would have been a HUGE help.
So far it seems like he didn't practice at all or just the nerves have gotten to him or something.
yeah bisu performed really well in leagues but practice house dynamic is totally different
jangbi is a player that has outperformed players on the level of stork in practice and apparently really high achieving players from other teams
magma a no name, in practice competes with the likes of JD
soo is not bisu this is not jangbi versus bisu its jangbi versus a pretty mediocre zerg when jangbi was, not too long ago, one of the best and most feared protoss players around
i was expecting jangbi's army control to be stellar, and i was expecting the storms, but i must say im impressed by his decision making. jangbi is known for making costly mental blunders in costly situations, perhaps his confidence is helping him think clearly.

Bisu is probably on vacation and didn't help all that much, to be honest. Otherwise he'd be there today. Unless he is and I missed him.
bisu was in the hospital I thought?
Ah, that could explain it. But I still don't think Bisu helped all that much. Anyway, set 3.
