Risking the whole game, a game you're firmly in control of, for a slim chance of ending it earlier. That's what he did, with or without losing the probes. My point is that the attack had much greater impact on the game. The main was soon mined out and Best had a lot of extra probes at the expo. I'm not saying that Best looked into his main while Stork was dropped and thought 'ah, maybe I should let the probes stay here as bait'. But Best consciously made the decision to use his full attention to his units while attacking, believe it or not. | ||

Exactly, it goes 2 ways. Having not seen the game Im assuming Stork had the Nostalgia Position, You cant do SHIT if someone sits outside your base on nostalgia, unless you try to go all the way around to that bullshit 2nd nat expo. Its like autowin if you can contain. | ||

I met the guy (Stork) and he's the farthest from arrogant of any players I've met. But even if you think he's arrogant/ugly/whatever, that's no reason to stick your head into the sand and pretend he isn't one of the best goddamn players in the world right now. | ||

True, most of us judge him from what we see on television. So to me he is a bad mannered little dickface who makes up excuses when he loses and did a stupid dance/ceremony to oov/skt. I don't care how 'nice' he acts towards his fans. | ||

he had a battlion of guardians but it was clear that there were more goliaths. I think 1 goliath beats or comes close to beating 1 guardian head-on -- basically, there was no way that jd's 14 guardians could have beaten flash's 30+ goliaths. it's hard to understand why jd decided to make guardians | ||

Seriously, switching to defilers is tough at that stage when you're so commited to mutas cause defilers do NOT live long against mech. They are very very very easily sniped. The problem was Jaedong really mismanaged both ugprades and the control during the actual battle. If the guards took out the tanks first and let mutas soak against gollies, it would've worked out a lot better. Muta/lings is NOT an answer. Try it out yourself, gollies chew that crap up once gollies are massed. t.t | ||
