He wasn't really close to losing the game. The point of the defensive nukes are to prevent the deathball from approaching an area -- Jinro had built a ton of rax and was floating over 6k/2k while Choya was supply blocked, out of resources, and had maybe one mining base while Jinro had 3 or 4.

It was still a dangerous moment. TvP with bio, at a certain point, the toss can just walk all over you and if he gets into your production, it's gg, even with the macro advantage the terran has.

Where you being dropped in 2 different places at the same time while controlling your army to try and defend? and managing about 5 bases/ reestablish your economy?
On a side note, that was the most effective nuke ive ever seen in a gaame that was still fairly close.

When you are on 5 bases it can be difficult to find where the nuke is.
Not to mention he doesn't speak english very well -.-

They're just so focused perhaps.
Maybe they don't understand the "nuclear launch detected" cause it's different in the Korean client? Anyone know?

also note jinro was attacking in 4 places at once and a nuke. Thats got to be hard dealing with 4 different attacks and then finding a nuke? Can't blame choya for the nuke destroying his probes at the 4'th.
