This is my theory. Except that I was pretty damn excited when I watched the VOD, and I already knew who was going to win. | ||

I got a little worried in the middle, when they sort of traded armies on the little ledge. Bisu only had a handful of units left and I thought oh shit Zerg is gonna rebuild and macro up a replacement army much faster than toss. But somehow he managed to roll that handful of units down a hill like a snowball and it wasn't long before he got the protoss ball rolling again, alas a few obs short nevertheless. | ||

First time ive ever seen goons own like that. Edit: Simon B...the ledge had little to do with it. Jaedong just kept sniping observers. | ||

I have a loopy brain that associates 33%=1/3=1:3 I guess. You're basing it on a sample size of 12 games? Good job. You can't tell imbalances based on such small stats. You have to look at the games themselves. In most games, the better player won, and while the map certainly isnt zerg favored (unlike many, many maps that are zerg favored vs toss) you can't say its horrifically imbalanced. A slight imbalance this way or that is a common feature of almost every map and it is NOT an excuse. Besides, watching this game it becomes apparent that the map played only a small role in the outcome of the game. | ||

"Besides, watching this game it becomes apparent that the map played only a small role in the outcome of the game." He was referring to the fact that people are denying an imbalance; he already stated the map played a minor role. Geez, it's an endless cycle. | ||

Anyone else in the entire Proscene would be an auto-lose. Go ahead and pick: Fantasy, Leta, Effort, ZerO, Stork, Jangbi, all of them would fall before Bisu. OZ was lucky to have Jaedong to put into that match.

During the beginning of 2008, Jaedong was definitively the better player, while during the fall of 08 Bisu was definitively better IMO. But now they're really close and I don't think there is a clear winner as to who is "better" right now. Honestly, I don't care which one is better. I want the Bo5 because it would be absolutely fucking epic! | ||

That was supplemental to the point that HBR is imbalanced in protoss's favor, specifically because of storm. You'd be insane to think otherwise. I mean it's not "this way or that" it is plain and simple fact that the map is heavily p favored. | ||

Folks seem to think saying HBR is highly protoss favored means I don't think Bisu played better this game when that's just not true. :x | ||

Anyway, I didn't notice that Jaedong canceled the spire. I'm only a D/D+ player and even I would never even think of doing that because of all the overlords I'd lose. I wonder what his reasoning was... | ||
