That game...JyJ vs ggaemo (pretty sure he was in Airforce Ace at the time), super tight proleague match that went down a base trade where JyJ had 1 Science Vessel that was needed to clear the lurkers but got sniped by scourge. That doom-zoom on JyJ's face and his "yikes" face is still imprinted in me. If I had to put an analogy for this, it would be tennis. Bisu is an older gen. multi champion, like Federer/Nadal, taking on a much younger adversary. | ||

It's like Protoss and Terran are playing tennis and Terran gets to serve in game 1 and 3 while in game 2 players take turns to serve. The series may be over already before Protoss gets to serve in game 4 (Revolver). And in the case it's a tie at 2-2, Terran gets to serve on game 5 (Metaverse). ASL needs to stop with these bullshit map pools. I think you're overreacting a bit. The maps aren't that imbalanced. Just slight advantages. It's part of the game. Bisu even picked the 2nd map, he could've picked Revolver. If you don't like the map order so much...tell Bisu to advance first ![]() | ||

Bisu with the absolute worst anti timing just now. Literally when JYJ should've been moving out to attack, Bisu for some reason attacks into him instead hmm... | ||

I can see a little bit why they'd be harder to hit but not harder than several other maps. It's easier to run directly back from the natural towards the main of course(as opposed to the other positions where you have to go around the cc going north or south). But other maps are very similar as far as storm drops go. | ||

That's not very abnormal. In standard games its completely normal and wise because you need to react to possible vulture run bys. Maybe in this case it didn't make as much sense but it's not a lack of mechanics I'd say. Just habit. The dragoons won't make it to the attack point in time without giving terran more time to develope. | ||

No I was talking about the group of Dragoons sitting just behind where the attack was happening, not like they were sitting at home. It's like the 1a2a3a didn't work for group 3 or something. | ||

The only bad thing for Terran is storm drop behind the mineral line, but it's true for Vulture drop too. Other things are just like normal map, except that Protoss can't easily take as many bases as in the case of a standard map like Polypoid. Plus the many high grounds can only be good for Terran. It was just that luck was on Bisu side with the cross spawn 12 Nexus and scouting. | ||

Just doesn't look like a contender this season. Happy for him, though. Hope he doesn't decide to stop practicing at all just because he has a seed now. | ||

Bisu over performs in the matchup at this stage historically. | ||

JyJ played exceptionally well. Top-notch vulture harass and defence against drops. Any top Protoss would've similarly been made to look 'sloppy'. My guess is only Rain could've played cleaner than Bisu this season. Yes, Bisu played below his KeSPA peak. But I don't think he played really that poorly considering the natural deterioration of mechanics that comes with age. Many other Protoss dragons put on far worse performances (mini, Best).., | ||

Bisu has to improve his level if he is to advance to the finals. | ||

I can't believe Bisu let JyJ take 2 free bases on Monopoly when protoss had 2 extra bases, like why he didn't just recall on fresh 4th near main? The 2nd half of that game looked like Bisu was bleeding units. He really got lucky with his 12 nexuses last games. Nevertheless Bisu is god! Well deserved. He messed up his scout at 9oclock. After stopping the attack had he had an observer up there he would have seen JyJ going to establish the base and would have stopped it. He also could have broke JyJ's 2 o'clock base when he counterattacked but was extremely sloppy. Left all his goons attacking a floating building and had he had some zealots in that shuttle he would have easily killed the high ground tanks and maybe have even won the game | ||

Yeah if you're really looking at this tournament alone Light doesn't look any more convincing than Bisu. He almost lost to Tyson in the first round ffs. Also lost to Bisu himself and Rain in straightforward manner, and just barely got past cheesy Mini. Then the series against Action in R8 is really questionable while we all know he should have steamrolled Action. That said the longer the series goes the better Light becomes so he could be a different beast in R4. Light got his reputation as the player no one wants to pick due to his extremely dominant UBE series where everyone has to play full 9 games. | ||

Exciting times in BW in my opinion. Wish there was MSL and proleague to go along with ASL which is basically our OSL.Is a new generation of interest possible in BW as players burn out on other games? I believe it just has to be made fun enough for new people to play, 1v1 puts them off immensely It's good to see so many players, even Scan and Light, playing fastest, because anyone can join in and keep the games fun going, instead of just competition. | ||

His macro was good overall and I liked his different approach each game, but I was a bit disappointed at how slow his reactions were. He made some sloppy mistakes too, which is uncharacteristic for him though that may be partially due to how well JyJ's execution has been this series. While I think he has a shot to win this ASL, he better practice hard because his remaining 2 opponents will not make things easy for him. Congrats to Bisu! Hope JyJ manages to maintain his form for next season. I think he was definitely a championship contender with how solid he has been. On March 26 2022 06:51 Miragee wrote: Just watched the matches and it was a really good series. Although I have to say I find it amusing that Scan had to blame the map in the final match when the previous match was played on Monopoly, which gives literally 0 options to engage vs mech, lol. Even as a terran player, that Monopoly map is so so difficult for Protoss in PvT. Narrow paths, and easy enough for Terrans to take more bases with good building placement. I think JyJ demonstrated all this extremely well. Probably the thing that works in Protoss' advantage is how big the main is, so you have to decide where to place your turrets/mines against recall. | ||
