I can only watch with a DIRECT link to the Daum Sports player, can anyone give it to me? Not the link to the Daum Sports main page, but directly to the player showing tonight's Lecaf v OGN. So yea, thank you in advance.
Come onnnnnnnn Chalrenge you can beat this kid - BackHo is no good! Seriously he's 2-8 in his last 10 PvP's so I think Chalrenge has a great chance of taking this game!
Chalrenge uses the extra time that he would've been mining to get down an earlier cybernetics core, first zealots clashing in Chalrenge's base, Manner pylon down for BackHo, Chalrenge attacking it.
support bays finishing just seconds apart now, backho is moving his army out to secure his natural. Chalrenge starting his own nat. First reaver out for BackHo we'll see how it goes for him.
Chalrenge now with 3 defending reavers, no shuttles for them so he's stuck turtling in his base. BackHo feigns at going in with his shuttle to harass, then retreats his own army back to the temples outside his own main.
backho going backdoor with his reaver harass, but is repelled by chalrenge, chalrenge mirrors this by doing a poorly executed reaver harass of his own in backho's base.
so glad chalrenge won that ... BackHo is officially horrible at PvP after losing twice to TT and now losing to Chalrenge, who I have to admit sucks even if I like him.

Pretty nuts
Currently he's the best T out there, playing better than Flash right now.
Hes the hottest terran right now, but I think he would fall fighting Flash or Mind possibly and some of the toss big names. I dont think hes quite proven hes the best but hes damned good.
edit: I suppose well test that theory if he plays Jaedong.
Hmm, OGN Sparkyz has to send Leta IMO, and Lecaf can send either fOrGG or Jaedong, though Jaedong has been practicing a ton from his interview so I would guess JD vs Leta.
GHASDFG... Why do I have the other stream but not this one?! Oh yeah, Bisu, Stork. I hope this turns out to be a good game, gonna cop the VOD tommorow. GO JAEDONG.
Holy shit they sent shine...what the fuck are they thinking no seriously..Shine's TvZ is terrible, no lie his m&m control is like as bad as mine. LOL vs Jaedong..my god I dont even see what they were thinking at all. If they were expecting forgg, then sending shine is fine, but jaedong is still very likely to play and Leta covers them both.
Even if shine does some crazy sunken break timing push/cheese this is the dumbest pick. Unless jaedong has an irrational fear of playing people with big noses and goes into panic attacks when he is forced to.
Shine was most likely sent because he was the one practicing on this map as the original harmony was often a TvT-fest and Shine is ok at that. With Leta busy trying to qualify for OSL, he may not have had the time to practice on multiple maps.

why does JD have to practice, ON ALL THE MAPS , damn lecaf
Mutas are over barracks, Shine going for counter with army
JD brings mutas back in response
Hydras are out
My stream lags... when it comes back Shine has 1 groups of 4 marines and medics in the middle of the map and not much else. Looks like from the minimap JD has third up.
Mutas go back into the main! No defense there! (where the hell is Shine's vessel?)
wow guardian lurker/ling with swarm..unbelievably rigged. Jaedong says hes scared to use guardians because he always loses..but then again he was playing shine. Great pick ogn...
yay, jaedong's confidence should go up from some random noobbashing in PL in time for the starleagues. Too bad Backho lost like stoopid again, I got him on my fantasy-everything...
Teach the naysayers you weren't really slumping Jaedong. They overreact after seeing a couple losses, and don't pay attention to the fact you still play better than everyone else out there. The starleagues are yours for the taking!
Okay, that's all the hype I'm allowed to have for someone not named Kang Min.

Yeah, Shine is a benchmark that all players should try to achieve...
Jaedong fans are overracting horribly, I dont really like him that much but Im realistic, he wasnt really slumping per se just losing to very good people alot more than he used to, no shame there well except for getting embarrased by battlecruisers 2x (fbh sea) and losing to fbh (2x), which is just aggrivating rather than shameful.
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...

No, people were overexaggerating his slump.
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.

This. 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.
