But seriously JD always wins zvz, so nothing to celebrate there, and beating shine..seriously you must have no seen this guys TvZ''..slump or not JD will beat him like 9 times out of 10 on a televised game. Hes the terran equivalent of Backho when facing zerg. I mean hes not the worst player, His TvT and TvP are deceint, but that TvZ...ugh... | ||

His 1st game vs Free--Byzantium 3rd game was his own fault, bad decisions. His game vs Sea, FUCKING AMAZING Defiler use, how the hell is that indicative of a slump? People rely on results too much, I'm afraid. Okay, his 2nd against FBH was bad, but the first game was great. And it's FBH, any zerg can lose to him. Plus, this was the first time BCs were used with a serious intent, he got caught off guard. Loss to Kal, he lost that game because he suicided 18 lurkers, contrary to supposed bad decisions, I saw none except for the aforementioned one. If he did not lose those lurkers, I have no doubt he would've won. His loss to Tempest was against the Zealot/Archon rush that zergs still have no answer for. Sangho+Roro are surprising, nothing wrong here, though Sangho did have that DT, but that was JD's fault for not having any ovies in his base. If people actually looked @ how he plays in game, for the most part there's nothing indicative of a slump. | ||

Maybe if we are talking about slumping, we mean different thinks. Of course JD isn't/ wasn't in a slump like Savior, his mechanics are still as good as they can get, and he is mostly dominating 50% players. Hoewever, I am comparing JD to the zerg he was 1 1/2 years ago, when I started to follow the Proscene again. And compared to back then, he is not the same, mostly because his decision making has been goddamn awful (especially in the game vs Kal imo). So I would say, most of us JD fans who are "overreacting" are thinking about how he used to own. | ||
