Amove hydras barely win against amove stalkers of equal numbers, and when you factor in the extra gas, it's easy tosee that hydras suck shit.

JYP, GG WP, DRG practice ZvP, take some lessons from Nestea/Losira or even CoCa.

You are OBVIOUSLY wrong... he lost to a build order loss man. Hydra < Collossi One simple thing that even any damn noobest zerg on the world would do that send in one single overlord to scout the main base while DRG didn't and blindly think that he could make a creep highway and sweep Protoss easily with hydras. So that's not BO lost, that's bad and overconfident.

you havnt seen the hydra roach vs Terran games in ICCUP weekly have you?
Anyway, pretty sure DRG went hydra/ling because he was expecting 6/7/8gate blink stalker to punish the gold, JYP predicted thats what DRG would prepare for and countered that, very smart play.

He didnt really do 1 or 2, he pumped a lot of drones for his gold/main before actually taking his third and didnt kick in troop production until way later leaving a large timing window that ordinarily wouldnt exist. Seemed more like something hes seen a few times by others and thought it would be a cool psychological thing to throw out there than a prepared clinch build. you dont understand it, but he owned naniwa with it

im not a DRG hater, in fact i love the guy.. but his zvp and zvz are far from proven so far.. he may have some quality wins in those matchups but they are far from being proven as elite like his zvt!

DRG played very risky 3rd game and got punished. He should just play standard. JYP reacted and won.
GJ JYP!

it is NOT standard to go such a fast robo. JYP was POSSIBLY predicting fast hydra, because the normal response is a big gateway push with blink or something like that, in which hydras would destroy...he knew there would probably be no infestors because of mineral floating and not enoguh gas.

Gotta love the people who are saying gold bases are imba after one, and only one, game. Well now we have two games and taking quick gold bases is 1-1, so I guess it's no longer imba.

He didn't own naniwa, naniwa was totally on tilt and gave up before attacking.

The Colossus rush that JYP is very hard to stop, Mana did it to me a few days ago and I got rolled. Zerg just doesn't have much at that timing when he's going for 3 bases.

As much as I like DRG, JYP played really well. Hope he advances to Code S in the Up/Downs, or wins the whole thing. If he won, we'd have consecutive Protoss Code A winners at a time when Korean Protosses are not as successful as the other two races. That would be cool .

I think you're lying sir :< At least I couldn't find LBs for these games.

FD, TesteR, Rain all leave, people talking about how TSL has fallen, then PuMa comes out and kicks ass. PuMa then leaves TSL for EG, we have this controversy with TSL being booted from the players association, and now JYP has come out to shine. Nice to see them pick up a big win against a very well-known player after Coach Lee got exonerated from all that nonsense. Also glad to see them back in the SC2Con.

To a fanboy, everyone who isn't a fanboy is a hater.
People bandwagon far too much in this game, and this is another example of waiting until someone accomplishes something until you crown them the next great player.

Chargelot Archon HT seems to be his thing. He executed it pretty well against some Terran in the previous Code A, forgot who.
