How can a pro player loose 6 vessels at the same time?

easy, your opponent is a s-class zerg with 12 scourges cloned perfectly against vessels a bit too far away from the main m&m group


If you are talking about the one JD killed 4 Sci Vessels in 5 seconds.Those scourges were not cloned. Predicting where the Sci Vessels would be, JD moved his scourges there. Scourges moved with the Sci Vessels, and JD A-clicked.

maybe i saw it wrong but when u A-click scourges, they dont automatically separate into pairs of twos and kill all the vessels in a group almost simultaneously

It was too close to call at that point. It would've been 1 base, 1.5 gas vs 3base zerg since zergs mine more slowly with less drones. The real tipping factor is that JD kept beating Hwasin's army to prevent a giganto ball-o-death. And scourges.

It was like hwasin was scared that 4 lurkers + 1 queen + 20 lings + 1 defiler were going to run him over ..... he played TERRIBLE in the middle of the game.

Go jaedong!


Yep, completely agree.

Also, hwasin's choice of leaving JD's third base alone was very questionable...

I think it is the second time Hwasin both lost his first match and ace match. I do not think STX coach will send him again to ace match if he looses the first match.

He didn't leave it alone lol. He constantly sent pathetic groups of 8 marines/fbats and 3-4 medics to die to the sunkens/lings.

Hwasin actually sent a group of 12 marines and 3 medics to attack it but jaedong surrounded it with lings just as it was in a narrow passage

Okay, I'm going to make one last attempt at this.

First of all, if you think Hwasin could lose simply due to the amount of vessels Jaedong sniped, go watch Jaedong's most recent game vs Sea and count how many vessels Sea loses.

Now, Hwasin was already behind and had little chance at taking out Jaedong's third once that nydus came up. What Hwasin did do, however, was stop Jaedong's attempts at a fourth for as long as possible, causing the game to continue to be groups of smaller fights rather than huge ones wherein his units would be too clumped up to avoid ensnare + swarm absolutely owning him.

It was Hwasin's forcing the game into those small skirmishes, plus his attempt to take advantage of the fact that a lot of the expansions on the map would be hard to control for Jaedong. Where that plan fell apart was in his failure to place a turret at or to scan his third base when the bunker was under attack. That, combined with the fact he failed to eventually stop Jaedong's expanding to a fourth base, and the mass vessel snipe, put him too far behind to come back.

There you go. Can we put it to rest now and admit it was an amazing game?

I can say that Hwasin sucked with Science vessel usage entire game.

Some people simply don't want to admit JD's amazing play. In their eyes all his victory is due to opponents' stupid mistakes.

Seriously, Jaedong landed almost all of his scourge that game (and most of his games in general).

...how does that even happen.

Are you serious? He started failing once his first vessel/tank push went for the natural instead of the 3rd. Hwasin constantly sent useless groups of mm/firebats to the 3rd to die for no reason. The only thing he did at all was prevent 2 expos from forming. Thats it. Plus, hwasin's own 3rd was horribly late. He was at an eco disadvantage the whole game,and by the time hwasin actually took his 3rd, he let jaedong mass enough troops to effortlessly take it. Jaedong almost botched it though when he didn't bring a defiler with him.

I still say he'd have kept the initiative on his side and his macro

I will review this game with the vod

Heck, he built so many tanks, yet he couldn't spare one to siege the 3rd's cliff. No drops in the main, no harrasses on the natural, he only took out a few stray hatches that jaedong didn't care for.


Okay, I'm going to make one last attempt at this.

First of all, if you think Hwasin could lose simply due to the amount of vessels Jaedong sniped, go watch Jaedong's most recent game vs Sea and count how many vessels Sea loses.

Now, Hwasin was already behind and had little chance at taking out Jaedong's third once that nydus came up. What Hwasin did do, however, was stop Jaedong's attempts at a fourth for as long as possible, causing the game to continue to be groups of smaller fights rather than huge ones wherein his units would be too clumped up to avoid ensnare + swarm absolutely owning him.

It was Hwasin's forcing the game into those small skirmishes, plus his attempt to take advantage of the fact that a lot of the expansions on the map would be hard to control for Jaedong. Where that plan fell apart was in his failure to place a turret at or to scan his third base when the bunker was under attack. That, combined with the fact he failed to eventually stop Jaedong's expanding to a fourth base, and the mass vessel snipe, put him too far behind to come back.

There you go. Can we put it to rest now and admit it was an amazing game?


Are you serious? He started failing once his first vessel/tank push went for the natural instead of the 3rd. Hwasin constantly sent useless groups of mm/firebats to the 3rd to die for no reason. The only thing he did at all was prevent 2 expos from forming. Thats it. Plus, hwasin's own 3rd was horribly late. He was at an eco disadvantage the whole game,and by the time hwasin actually took his 3rd, he let jaedong mass enough troops to effortlessly take it. Jaedong almost botched it though when he didn't bring a defiler with him.

Okay,
1) Both fantasy and he went for the natural instead of the third, hmmm, maybe it's better that way?
2) 2 base terran vs 3 base zerg is not an 'eco disadvantage'
3) Jaedong went for Hwasin's third after he killed his army, though the no scanning made a difference, but it wouldn't have mattered because Hwasin still didn't have an army when his 3rd was under attack.

Hwasin played well, he made a few mistakes that cost him the game. But JD played really well at crucial times to keep himself in it long enough for Hwasin to slip up a bit.
