Bisu has such an easy bracket hahaha, considering how well he did on Ladder I think Bisu vs Flash is more than likely this time

Focusing down tanks can be legit good but in this situation it wasnt. The map control, eco harass and ability to clear up mines and lonely tanks with mutas is owrth more than a full tech switch to defiler lurker ultra ling vs the goliaths left. The mines and speedy vultures are ao quickly produced and can do so much damage agianst a zerg moving his big army clunks across the map. JD went for the kill on lasts 11 base, needed it very much but it seems it wasnt going to happen, so savibg those mutas,usibg them like a group of goons clearing mines for the rest of his army that'd be good.


Another thing. There must be good timing windows to stop a T expanding this much. For example the window when T tech switches or takes his 4th or 5th? Dunno about those lategame windows though but this mechy money play must be stopped!

Maybe, but it just bothers me that people only point out the mistakes of zerg simply because "bw is perfectly balanced". No it's not.

You think dropping Defiler/Ling in the main to cut production would've been a better idea?

Nevermind that crackling can clear mines before they explode and we've seen circumstances like in this game where a zergling runs far enough and survive with half hp while the mine detoned already -_-

Then what is your point? You actually can use vultures in a vacuum, lay mines all over the map and each time a mine hits pretty much anything it's cost efficient already

You don't really kill the command centers for the most part in these games since they fly. If they couldn't lift off it would be a much easier match up. It is enough though to hold the ground around the patches, that's how you eventually win.

It's 6 base terran against 4 base zerg. I think it's a miracle Jaedong survived that long.

GG both players. So I guess Soulkey is the zerg hope now.

The main is the hardest place to drop. It is already turret ed up from the initial mutas off 2 bases. Plus the resources run out so less value than dropping expansions.

They buffer for the Ultras, drag mines (hopefully in mech units) AND have the best dps in the game.

Come to think of it, he didn't destroy any of Last's command centers, which allowed Last to replenish his units. Despite Jaedong doing more economic harassment, he was on 4 bases for quite a while.


You know there is that spell called 'lift' which makes CC's invincible against anything Zerg has lategame.

Oh I'm aware of lift, but most zerg players still attempt to destroy a base/cc even in late game. The only time Jaedong attempted to destroy last's CC was the upper-right expansion. The point is Jaedong didn't do economic damage which he needed to do against mech, and he didn't expand enough earlier and that cost him the game.

The moment when T switches is also the moment that zerg is stablilizing. What I mean is that when T switches Z is filling his 4th base and has only a bunch of lurkers and defilers to hold his 2nd and 4th base. So it isn't the window for zerg to strike. Zergs strike a bit later when they establish 4th base, and this is exactly what happend in this game - JD tried to put a lot of pressure after establishing 4th but Last was too much...

Is it balanced? At first glance it looks like it isn't. Both made some mistakes but somehow Last was all the time on top and up 50 supply. However history of Broodwar teaches us not to hurry making such conclusions about imbalance. Maybe Soulkey will be the one to bring the solution since he is doing well vs T. We will see.
Be the change you want to see in the world.

Guys. Last was on the brink of collapse. He really was lucky his main and natural wasnt pressed enough after he lost the control on the middle.

he did a bit of everything complemented with nothing.this is the same when you are doing a semi all in that fails,u are alive but dont expect to win.
