Overall, I was impressed by JD. He clearly can compete for the 2nd spot in his group, Stork cannot. I want Last to beat Rain so bad.

If Last beats rain (I think likely), and jaedong beats stork (very likely) then Jaedong has a decent chance versus Rain I think. It's not over for JD just yet.

Didn't watch yet but noticed this: where the hell was music? Is this slowly becoming SC2 alike league? I'm not even talking about only blue and red color thing. Give us our BW OST next time!

Oh, that was painful to watch old generation biting dust vs. newer generation. Still I liked how JD played, especially 2nd game. I'm sure he has an ability to take out Last if he could train more late game macro, 30+ min. games without his wrist hurting, that could be my dream.

Rain is too hot, the Bisu of current era so it's expected him taking out Stork. I'm glad Stork still competing, don't count him out he can do wonders if he wants.

Me too. A group D final bo5 between Last/JD doesn't bode well for JD. Also, eliminating JD can really cause some fan fury. Better for both if Last advances 2-0, avoiding this possibility.

On a side note, what impress me the most about Last tvz style is his ability to counter attack under pressure. In both game 1&2, he totally caught JD offguard with his counter attacks. I also remember an offline series Last vs MisO and when i thought MisO was ahead not to say winning, Last counter attacked at a key moment to win that game. Really impressive stuff anyways

Do you mean the in-game music being really quiet? They seem to have had audio level issues every cast this season, since they moved to the new studio. Something is always off. For groups A and B you could sometimes barely hear the cast over the in-game sound, now we seem to have reverse. I have hope that they'll sort it out for next week though.
I'm with you on the music, you need the the soundtrack (particularly terran themes) to generate the appropriate levels of hype for the game, it just doesn't feel right without it.

Last is ridiculously strong. Extremely top heavy Starcraft. JD/Stork aren't comparable to Rain/Last. Ro8/Ro4 should be awesome.

Last and Rain toying with their victims, as was easy to be expected. Nice and enjoyable shows of domination against JD and Stork, mere semblances of their former abilities and prowess. Indeed, winners and losers round should produce way better quality games as the opponents are more evenly matched in skill.

I agree Last >> JD, but I think JD has a decent shot vs. Rain if it comes to it.

It does not hurt anymore to see Jaedong getting outclassed that hard. I guess the acceptance-stage has been reached.

Collosseum is such a cool map, I had forgotten. I am not speaking about balance, but aesthetically it is great and the feel of the map is epic.

The level of play for opening night of all 4 groups was just abysmal though. It gets really hard for me to enjoy BW games now. There is only 4-5 players left that come somewhat (but not really) close to the KESPA era. Half the players in the Ro16 are just not competitive anymore at all.

Finally got to see Jaedong use a defiler in an official game, but he only made 2? I don't understand, is he just reluctant to use them? He didn't make a single one in his 4-0 S1 loss either.

It kinda bothers me a bit. Isn't the unit a huge win-con in ZvT?
MMOs kill APM. However Proleague plus BW Proscene music increase APM -> 100. 이제동 Fighting! Highest ranked Jaedong owner in FPL10 = clearly #1 Jaedong fan~! <- Keeping my sig from 2010

Strok vs. Rain, round 2, Crossgame.

Rain goes 3 gateway, the most overpowered build.
Stork goes 1 gateway + robotics...

Amazingly Stork builds an observatory instead of bay, blindly expecting that Rain would go DT... WTF? He builds observers so he could see more clearly how Rain's incoming dragoons are about to destroy his base...

And now comes the best part.

Realizing that he messed up the build, Stork kills a kakaro, which is a sign that he will loose the game anyway, as killing a critter has always been the bad bearing omen.

But Stork did not kill the kakaro because he knew what was about to come from Rain, he killed it because he was jealous that kakaroos were flying in the sky, not storks.
