I want to defeat Jaedong and make everyone fearful of Sk Telecom Terrans players. lol, a bit too late for that buddy. They've been feared since the dawn of professional starcraft. | ||

if jaedong actually performs against SKT1 and fantasy then he's defied the law of humility | ||

A Jaedong vs Fantasy final would be really exciting. Fantasy hungry for his first OSL [After getting second twice] and Jaedong in his usual rape everyone mode | ||

I thought it was a 9pool by zero and a 12hatch by jaedong, albeit with a very early gas by Zero. And I thought it was 9 pool > 12hatch > 12 pool > 9pool no? I thought Jaedong's win was due to the fact that they were cross-positions. Lately Jaedong and Effort have been pretty much making the build order inequalities seem obsolete though. Also, I think that Leta's loss to type-b can be best explained by the fact that they are teammates. Leta practiced and refined his 2port wraith against his teammates, especially type-b and yellow[arnc] and I'm sure that they are both really good against it by now. Leta's TvZ was the best because even though he always did 2port wraith and people prepared specifically for his build, he still did it and won with his micro, macro and management (except against Jaedong on Outsider). If he wasn't playing against a teammate, I'm sure he could have busted out the 2port wraiths at least once and done a good job, or at least force the zerg to go for a fast hydra den. | ||

Bo advantages mean nothing. Losing 4 drones means nothing. Not going mutas means nothing. Its all a win for the Tyrant | ||

Its all a win for the Tyrant Jaedong 12 hatched, Zero went for an overgaspool build with ling speed. Standard overgaspool depends on walling off a ramp with zerglings while grabbing a fast second hatchery inbase; the earlier gas allows 6 mutas to be hatched off of one geyser once the spire completes. Zero's getting ling speed delayed his hatchery and put him way way behind in larva than Jaedong, who abused that advantage once his own ling speed finished to break Zero's ramp, kill some drones, and force a sunken colony. Even though he got to spire, Zero's economy was stuck and there was no way he could build a second hatchery. All he could do was pump mutas off of one gas, which Jaedong safely countered with two spores at each of his bases, even building a sunken at his natural to be extra safe against zergling runbys. Once Jaedong's own spire completed and his two gas geysers were operational, Zero was dead. So yes it was a build order/positional win. Zero chose an awful build, got cross positions which made it even worse, and Jaedong exploited his advantage perfectly. | ||
