This group is absolutely brutal. JD’s ZvP looks great from what I’ve seen recently. I think he probably makes it. And then prob Snow. I think his PvT and PvP is a little above Sharp and Mini’s.

But no outcome from this group would surprise me.

What a hype group. Hoping and expecting Snow and Mini to make it through. I think both at their level are well ahead of JD and Sharp. Mini though is always so volatile it gets nerve racking. Which Mini will we see today?

Lot of hype for JD's PvZ but I am suspicious how much is nostalgia.

It really hasn't been lookin the best for ol' Min-bags. Not online, at least. Prayge Buddha he cooked up a hotsauce and is gonna drag some bitches to the dosoljang today. But it won't be a surprise if he bombs out like Jeff Daniels in Speed.
However, if Mach 10 Mini shows up it could go the other way. He'll come up out of the ground like Arnie did in Eraser with the 2 rail guns, and just go off. Or like Robocop in the cocaine factory, when he shat on everyone with that absurd auto-aim. Making Flash look like one of those SC University chicks. We've seen it before vs Barracks that one season, or when he Black-Widow-crotch-tackled soma with the cair micro, but lost anyway cuz apologize for playing that race. Today could be a SwiftSadge, or it could be a ThumpGiggle. Maybe even a 4KappaPrideJam. But never a GIGABooba.
Now i'm rdy for start game. And plz be gg.

Soulkey probably responsible for that. His PvZ was kind of ass during the first 15 seasons or so too.

I'm still a bit salty we never had BW race icons and they just adopted the SC2 ones. I still feel nostalgic seeing the logos on TL even if they're not anything official by Blizzard.

Give an A/S class Protoss a control group of carriers and it’s nearly impossible to beat them.

My issue with PvT is that it's just so fucking repetitive. Carriers, shuttle/storm, gateway man...it's like waves crashing against the beach over and over. It lacks any real narrative structure past the early game. It might even be worse than ZvZ.
Need like 2 bobcats playing and then maybe it can be cool. Otherwise it's like NASCAR or some shit. Left turn simulator. Nah this shit's like...MONOPOLY. OH god.

I felt like this during KeSPA era at some point. Every damn PvT seemed the same. It tends to be the case when meta stops evolving and is idling until the next change starts. And this is why it's so important to have some new maps each ASL.

Mini is fucking nuts with his aggression. I think JD missed a chance to kill him outright by a Ling flood at the beginning there. If he just left the 2 damaged zealots and went straight for Mini's base. The Forge wasn't even finished.

Another fat storm on drones. JD should not be able to comeback from this.

Mini’s zealot timing are a thing of beauty. Just never gives a Zerg time to relax and drone.

All that early zeal pressure played out well for Mini. Made JD use more larva for lings that he probably would’ve rather used for drones. Gave Mini great scouting too and he got those gates up super quick without the need for many cannons.

I started watching a bit late, but even though the zealot micro didn't look too hot, Mini kept a very steady macro, unlike JD.
Seemed like a case of JD making too many lings early and not doing the necessary damage with them to not fall behind.

Need like 2 bobcats playing and then maybe it can be cool. Otherwise it's like NASCAR or some shit. Left turn simulator. Nah this shit's like...MONOPOLY. OH god.

It's not just the Reaver micro. Snow's Dragoon movement is so good. He played game 3 without an Observer but his Dragoons moved as if he had full vision of the map like us the audience.

Should have tried sneaking drops through the overlords, or getting rid of them to enable a drop first, instead of dropping next to JDs army 5 times.

mini's best bet if he plays mindgames now is to play super conservative and macro games, so far in all 4 games today he was on the aggro side and he is known for it

The issue with putting valks wraiths in the same control group is that you cant cloak instantly. So in critic timings you usually dont have the time to unselect those valks to cloak your wraiths. Sharp build is actually really annoying to play against but im not sure is the ideal to try in ASL with nerves etc.

Gotta watch Mini’s play more closely and how he boxes JD in. The sneak zeal attack+ramp block game 1. The anticipation and defence of the all in game two and zoning of the slow overlords game 2 to set up the DT drop. And the early third to bait JD into attacking while he drops DTs. Just brilliant decision making. Mini had JD on his heels all the time. Never allowed him to get comfortable.

Hydra control when busting/forcing cans can use some improvement as well. Like use the H button for all the hydras if you're busy in your base macroing/teching.

Same Mini who lost 1 - 8 to Larva just a week ago.

4P in Ro8 now but it feels to me that increases the chance of a Soma win.

You could see after game 1 (their second of the day) that JD was over letting Mini set the pace of the games. The ling/hydra all in was pretty obviously coming as it at least would allow JD to dictate proceedings and get into his hydra pump. But mini just never let him relax. I really loved the quick third from Mini. Such a ballsy but smart play to pair with the DT drop.

Most likely Snow season. While Soma is in good shape his zerg vs terran i dont feel like is beating Light. And im not sure if Light can beat Snow. It all depends how the bracket plays out tbh.

But the only player that give me Aura of no losing to nobody except Soulkey is Snow.

Soma is probably the only one left who is better than Snow (at least in ZvP). I don’t see Snow beating Soma bo7 but he prob has an edge against any other player on the ro8. I think prob Soma, Snow, Light is probably top 3 in that order. I think Mini can win it too but his PvP is shaky and there are many P in ro8. Best has a shot too. Can’t see Bisu, Rax or Effort winning.

Effort's peak ZvP was probably even higher than JDs. I think at one point it was 73%. Dude was insane. If he gets to regain that form, he can absolutely do it. Effort vs mini would be pure cinema.

we said the same with the so called monster z v t Rush, and it ended in pure rape. Tv match is a different game.

If Effort gets Barracks or Light then he is out. If he gets Bisu, Best, or Mini there is a chance.

Barracks will lose of he gets Best, SnOw, or a Bisu.

My man... JD rallied an overlord to mini's main and lost it to cannon which supply blocked him. That is a ?? level blunder which otherwise would have had JD winning in the next 90 seconds.

Looking at the recommended games before watching, I was 99% certain that Jaedong lost in the decider match because of how people vote on his games. You'd think he was a scrappy underdog who brought out fun new builds rather than someone with a nickname of The Tyrant.

hard to say its a blunder when ordinarily thered be no reason for mini to have a cannon there at that time. weird decision from mini just happened to pay off massively.

Well well well my level 60 sex machines, Mini did it. He almost accessed Mach 10, and very nearly looked like Robo in the cocaine factory with that auto-aim. He played like a baller. I won't rub it in because I know JD's got many fans. But it didn't seem very challenging for Mini. He just needs to practice PvP a bit. If he got out in first I woulda ...fuckin.....FUCK. Woulda been cool. Snow's got his number though. Fuck SnOw. Dude hacks.

RIP, I was rooting for Sharp and JD. I'm hurt by the results of this group.

I think we might get a P win this ASL. Either Snow or Mini.

Snow has a bit of gap between him and others in PvP. The maps are not terrible for PvZ and only Soma is really scary from the remaining zergs. He can handle any PvT out there right now.

Mini is too much of a headcase but if he maintains his level, the chances are there as well. He also has to avoid Snow in the Bo7s, he's not beating him in that.

Shame that Sharpt was so shaky, could have been a great game on currents otherwise.

Oddly enough the PvP was the most entertaining. Although the final wa good too for different reasons.

JD didn't look really on it unfortunately. We know he can play better than that even right now. Is it nerves?

Just got to game 2. Mini is so so much better than any other protoss. It's not even close. No one else makes games like this. Zergs just aren't used to handling this kind of assertive agentic protoss.

Well well well my level 60 sex machines, Mini did it. He almost accessed Mach 10, and very nearly looked like Robo in the cocaine factory with that auto-aim. He played like a baller. I won't rub it in because I know JD's got many fans. But it didn't seem very challenging for Mini. He just needs to practice PvP a bit. If he got out in first I woulda ...fuckin.....FUCK. Woulda been cool. Snow's got his number though. Fuck SnOw. Dude hacks.

Yeah, Snow is reaver cheater.

JD falling to zealot rush and DT backstabs. Maybe one or two well-placed sunkens would have changed the outcome against Mini. Just need to wait a bit more for your ASL, JD. It'll come.

mini is super fun to watch because he makes huge gambles almost every game. he's got the best zealot micro in the world. He's one of the few players that plays better offline than online (at least when he's in form). But he's definitely got holes in his gameplay, not just nerve-related. He has the worst macro of the top 4 protosses, and spends too much time microing losing battles than macroing.

He's my favorite protoss on the scene but i don't think he can take down snow without a huge improvement to his gameplay, or having a ton of really good cheeses planned. Even though I think snow is the most solid PvZer right now, he's generally kind of weaker in BoX series because he plays very predictably and safe. I can see a scenario where effort beats snow but loses to mini.

That's funny... A double KSL/ASL champion and the nr. 1 ASL terran is considered by some a dark horse (is not this term used for underdogs?) - of course he is massively favored!

Ouch! Hearing that you would think Mini had no chance vs. JD. I think Mini turned on his "bitter zealot mode" - i wonder if any body remembers that???

Yes. But i will wait for the semi-finals. You know there is a chance of 4 Protoss there (KSL deja-vu).

You talk nonsense. You are defiling JD by this particular performance vs. Mini. He recently had two KCM all-kill events. JD was coming to this ASL as a top 5 zerg for sure.

People in proleague will pick Soma > soulkey > queen > Hero > JD > Effort in that order so i guess you're right. When I meant bottom tier I meant he's the last place zerg in god tier realm. Actually scratch that since larva won! Soma > SK > Queen > Larva > Hero > JD > Effort. So jd not even in top 5

Wait you guys saw Jd all kill in KCM and really thought oh shit he is winning this ASL for sure ? If you just put the effort to watch his daily streams you will see he is not close to SK Soma . There is a chance he is fighting spots with queen hero right now. So if you take the top 5 zergs he is proly bottom from those or 4 depending on the day really.That said im not really sure in proleague he is being pick last since he is still a powerhouse name that brings allot of ballons like shuttle lol.

But Jaedong for years has been behind the top zergs. It doesnt mean he is trash tho. In a good day he will destroy anyone like it happened in KCM.

Sadly, that's very true. Though, Jaedong is already hall of fame for me, doesn't matter what his gameplay is now, because back in the day he was one of the best of all time.
Yea that looks just like Kang Min... amazing game sense... and uses mind games well, but has the micro of a washed up progamer.

Snow making it 1st is no surprise. That PvP series was surprisingly fun. Usually tvt and pvp are not so fun to watch for me.

Double protoss making but i'm kinda sad with Jaedong. He was kinda crushing in KCM and he just got wiped on the floor by mini like he couldnt figure out how to beat the mass lot timing early on

Aint no way we arent gonna get a protoss winner this season especially with soulkey out of the way

Washed up zerg pros age terribly. The zerg split decisions turn sour immediately. The fastest rising stars become the worst crashing ones. Thank God for BTS. He really doesn't play cheese and keeps up with his style until the end. Zerg is littered with pros who cheese their favourite unit - Jaedong and hydralisks, Action and defilers, july and zerglings. Keeping up tabs with the enemy is really hard with zerg, you don't have the same spying capabilities as the other species. You lose track of the enemy. Nothing is as inexpendable as the weakest units in the game when your enemy has gained courage to strike at you. The whole game revolves around intimidation and too much or too little fails miserably.
