It's hard on Andromeda, what Jaedong should've on done was to exploit the Protoss army's lack of mobility and done repeated harass with drops on the main. | ||

Now, I'm not so sure. You need to balance units and resources so that you can be a step ahead. Jaedong got a huge advantage that game by taking out the first two reavers, then threw away the advantage that he gained by building 1.5 control of lurkers, and getting them taken out by about 2 controls of goons | ||

Zerg were imbalanced, and still are. Protoss get two bases and have to hide away in their base while zerg can take the map, switch techs almost immediately, doom drop freely...and did I mention crack lings? Yeah, if a protoss gets on 4- 5 gas with pure archons late hes really strong. Sur-fuckin-prise. If you sit there and let ANY race pump out their best troops with great resources they become unstoppable.he can't he was playing zerg. now, i hate to start some sort of imbalance crying, but it just doesn't make sense to me. whats zergs equivilent of storm/reaver/archon ? it just seems sooo invincible once its out and zerg has to spend 2-3x the resources on shittier caliber units to defeat it. and im tired of hearing "the zerg shouldn't let them get to that point in the game" cause thats a cop out, not an answer. Starcraft is about abusing your races' strengths, and minimizing your races' weaknesses. If a protoss gets to late game, has numerous reavers and archons, the zerg failed miserably. | ||

The scenario this game was a lot different taht in the Free game. Kal did not macro off 5 gas forever. Jaedong would have won if he didn't suicide all those lurks. Don't complain man, thats Protoss's job.  | ||

I always thought Andromeda lends itself to 'your contain means nothing' type of games. Lurker suicide or not, Jaedong had no business losing that. Zerg have a huge advantage early due to 3hatching at 3 mineral patches with 1 choke, but the map also forces the Zerg to have a window where they more or less have to hydra break or it's over. JD's was late, and he lost. | ||

This is how much Jaedong sucked in that game. Look at the actual game list instead of the stats. There were mostly good ZvPs beating up on nooby protoss vZ. Andromeda has the min only and close 3rd gas. And island maps, since drop is a natural tech progression for protoss. | ||

I might be going out on a limb here, but I think a best of 5 Final is both more important and more telling than a PL ace match. | ||
