Wow, JD just flipped a switch there and completely took over the game. A lesser player would of been rattled after that successful drop that killed all his tech.

Well played by Mong, his games were great.

That Savior-y lurker backstab just saved him


you mean a savory lurker drop?


No i was talking about the 5 lurker that he used for the contains. He didn't send them back. He hid them far from the vision off the terran than repositionned them to cut back the reinforcement army


ah those

i thought you were talking about the lurker he dropped to take out the armory upgrades

i guess lurker drops wasn't what savior was famous for


There's a really really good Final edit on Savior's here. If you prefer i have translated it in French a long time ago. I can find it for you if you want.


my english > my french no worries

i know savior was the savior of zerg in his prime and he used strong strategic moves to delay pushes and such. i read the TLnet articles about it, but maybe we aren't talking about the same thing? hmm


Yes we are "God of the battlefield 1 and 2" final edit.

Thank you eonzerg for the LR ! See you tomorrow.


yeah those articles were excellent.

btw my first post was meant to be a pun/joke




My French > My english


cheers! here's to enjoying some brood war action

As someone who never played BW (nor SC2) MP, gotta have noob questions.
Did JD win the game or it was rather Mong losing it?
I mean, I thought JD was dead when most of his tech got destroyed
How did he not die there?
How did he managed to get all those ultras, and eventually win the game?

FLash said JD was still way ahead even when with the successful drop. Reason being zerg secured 4 gas while terran only had 2 gas and Zergs drones were all saturated.

Okay, thanks for the quick reply. Also, makes lot of sense (obviously)

EDIT
Also thank you BisuDagger for your detailed reply as well.

The fourth base was key and I'd say Jaedong won that game.

1. Mong pushed on JD with a 5 rax build. JD defended only losing units. Mong did no damage to JD's bases or economy.
2. Jaedong expanded and got up to 4 gasses. 4gas zerg means defiler and ultra tech are affordable
3. Jaedong's mutas did a great job of denying the left side of the map expansions.
4. Other then the drop inside JD's main, Mong was unable to apply pressure. Even when he lost tech, he was able to just spam fully upgraded zerglings to help control the game. If they spawning pool was picked off, Mong would have been able to make a move on JD. Instead JD just patiently amassed gas while lings kept him alive. Mong needed to also stim in and kill the drones in the main. The evo chamber kills were a big mistake imo. There were much more important buildings/workers to kill.
5. Those later game lurker drops and constant ling attacks allows JD to make a large bank for the cow transition
6. JD then finally took a fifth base while Mong was spending too much poorly defending his own bases.

Yep, looking back, losing all that tech looked way more devastating than it actually was. I think this was a case of JD winning the game and not Mong losing it. JD also did a great job of denying Mong his third and fourth gas. JD also destroyed the armories and denied Mong from getting his 2-2, which was alread on the way. JD already had 1-2 upgrades before his evos went down irrc.

Yup. But JD's spawning pool only survived by 17hp. Would've interesting to see how close it would've been had the pool gone down, since JD was depending so heavily on lings for much of the game.

Still think JD would've won. But Mong put up a stiff fight, my respect for him has increased.

Thanks for this insight! It must really look so different from a Pros perspective as to who is ahead or behind at any stage, would love to read more things like this!

Well any zerg would advance from this group, I am surprised JD had trouble with Best considering his PvZ.

Great final game. I was worried when the tech was sniped, and also the brief period of 5 base Terran against 4 base Zerg. But the lurker drops gave him the eco advantage back, and cow drops for the win.

That final game was soooo scrappy! I changed my mind like 5 times guessing who gonna win this... Incredible comeback by JD, he switched his Tyrant mode on by outmultitasking. Mong got really efficient mech army, his multitasking was not bad with multiple drops but I guess he's not mech monster like Light. Definitely 2nd best game of season after Rain. vs. Effort.

Let's hope Dong won't meet Flash in same group. I'm not even gonna judge if they gonna rig brackets to ensure they won't meet until finals

I think Mong disproved that assessment.
