Nice write-up LR! I'd disagree with SuperiorWolf who said the games weren't bad. The games were dreadful. I didn't know Jaedong had mouse issues, but his control against Hwasin was as bad as any new-pro's control. The Bisu vs Jaedong games were one-sided, and the only thing nice about those games were Jaedong's amazing ZvP style.
And Frozean, recently I have a bit more faith in him, but he once again proved that along with Backho he is one of the least strategic/intelligent progamers around. Bisu does a darky build into a double expand with arbiters at the same time, all at the same time, and Frozean decides that the optimal strategy would be to turtle? I mean, Bisu has just spend ton of resources on a failed darky build, and then spent 800 more resources on the double expand, and then another 700 or so on getting Arbiters, which means you should have 7 tanks or 20 vultures more than Bisu can handle, and you fucking turtle. Sigh.
One thing I've noticed about Bisu recently is that he can't macro from a normal build. If Bisu doesn't do very risky expansion builds (ala vs Frozean), then he is always behind in macro. He always does that, and I think it's just a matter of time before other players take advantage of this in his other matchups (they already do in his PvZ).
Anyway, interesting group, but bad games. Best players went through though!

why are the videos deleted?

They aren't, just click on the video, it'll open a new tab and the video will run.
On another note, FUCK YOU BISU! I said this a lot of times but he just keeps fucking up. I still hope he'll manage to get over this.

funny thing is, if bisu didn't try to protect his teammate during selection, hwasin wouldn't be switched into his group, then JD 1st, and bisu might get 2nd and advance, o well, at least it was nice of him.
That's true... now that I think about it. No way Bisu would've dropped both games to Frozean and Fantasy, and I doubt JD would've either. At least it was an honorable way of going out.

Bisu has always risked, but his sence and micro had always saved him (mainly in PvT).
Well for his PvZ it is really terrible right now, he is trying other build types, like dt without sair and reavers... He is not good at it now, and his multitasking got worse.
Reminds me of RA's slump.
But we didn't see that much magic from jaedong eigher, suppose bisu did really crappy in both matches(especially the first one) and jaedong did really bad vs Hwasin(although you blame his mouse).
Perhaps I have seen too much hate/love in your report much too clearly LR - hate Frozean, love Hwasin, even more love Jaedong, even more hate Bisu.
But I think It will get better overtime.

jaedong may of been at a bit of a disadvantage against Hwasin because of his mouse, but not ridiculously so. He wasn't able to perform at his normal level, and could of done more damage- sure. But saying its purely because of the mouse is an excuse, he simply got beat. He was behind throughout the game. Jaedong losing to Frozean because of his control....waaah? It wasn't Jaedong level control, but it certainly wasn't *garbage*. He simply lost, the mouse helped that but it wasn't the main reason

ScarFace, looking at that game I'm willing to say Jaedong lost 100% because of mouse issues. When I watched that game the first time I didn't know he had mouse issues, and I was laughing at how badly he controlled all his units. I literally thought that Jaedong's dominating streak has come to an end, so bad was his control.
Him having mouse issues is a lot more logical than him losing his touch to that extent in a few weeks.

Anyhow Jeadong hasent been on fire vs T but he his zvz and zvp is superb. Hwasin has always been a amazing player but has tendecy to be unconsistens and that is a key issu if you want to win titels.

I like how jeadong shows of his mouse after the last match

Working fine for me.

Bisu is one of those players I only like because he's good. But that hasn't been the case lately, so I guess it's time to let him die in my mind.
But I guess on that note, Lucifer become new KTF Protoss God gogo!

Well, it was a good job by jaedong; looks like he showed up to play (and has had bisu's number for the last few games).
|
What Daigomi noted is the thing that concerns me. Bisu has the macromanagement ability to play a straight up game, but as it stands right now he keeps going for these builds and playing poorly otherwise. He has the ability to win using 'normal' builds as he has done before, I just don't know if Bisu has the faith in his own abilities to use it anymore.
It's really hurting him in his PvZ, which makes me think he's lost a lot of confidence in his PvZ, and that is having the flow on effects. Hopefully he puts himself back together soon.

LJD clicks burrow it seems. That is why his lurkers just stood there while Hwasin killed them.

I'm sure he hits u, but I think he just had problems selecting the ones he wanted..? Since progamers don't do 1u but rather click-u

Since progamers don't do 1u but rather click-u Yeah, I figured he was just distraught that the game was so close, and lost his nerve. His muta micro is where its telling hes either having problems with his mouse or his confidence. Considering his OSL run, im willing to bet its a bit of both. But he will probably be fine from now on, so long as he doesn't lose anymore straight up games.

obviously it's an evil circle, if he noticed something wrong with the mouse he probably got frustrated and couldn't keep his cool and therefore plays even worse
