This is true, DRG was expecting some sort of big gateway push off 2 bases and made hydras to counter it

Why does DRG make hydras? If he goes hydras, he loses. He did it at MLG when he lost, too.

Oh well, at least Keen made Ro16 of Code S.

Can't be certain but he was probably trying to blind counter the normal fe into stargate that toss do 9/10 times

I dont really understand DRG's build tbh. Fast gold builds work out really well because you need less worker saturation before you can either:

1) Follow it up with fast unit production [basically its like a functioning economy yet troops just beyond an initial rush timing]
2) Take a fast third then just churn out units

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.

Every time people think TSL is doing down, they bust out with a new good player. 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.

well I don't think expanding to gold is a great response cross positions vs FFE but it's not like DRG played that well at all. he did basically the exact wrong thing

I'm LOVING JYP's protoss play today. Very enjoyable series.

Sucks for DRG, but maybe this means he returns for MLG Raleigh???

With a gold base I don't understand why DRG didn't go roach, you can get soooo many roaches with a gold base.
Looks like he was spreading creep up to the toss for a ling hydra timing before collosus but didn't scout :S
Jaedong gives me a deep resonance.

JYP went straight fucking colossus at 7 minutes. Thats not that common.... DRG lost because he went hydras and didnt scout. To be fair tho, those colossi would've been really fucking hard to scout and JYP smartly put his gateways where an overlord would scout. DRG lost cause JYP blind countered his previous builds (mass ling) imo.

No matter who won or lost, the great thing is that both players played fantastic today, providing us with a window into a refreshing fresh batch of strategies being developed in Korea.

DRG and JYP have shown tremendous potential, and I look forward to future games from them.

DRG played quite clever, but got meta-gamed hard and made some questionable decisions that cost him games. JYP struggled against a monster DRG in Game 1, but managed to show several neat tactics (STORM DROPUU) that were quite nice to see. Nice to see him rebound from a 1 game deficit and show some solid play against a solid Zerg.

he didn't blind counter DRG. he went colossi to punish the gold.

DRG tried to blind counter JYP and flopped.
