Needed more zerglings, but I think JD would still have lost. With that amount of sentries only infestors will save you, the initial push really had an absurd amount of sentries.

I'm also nicely surprised by the good observer numbers, not usual for SC2

I thought he was going to take that army with 4-5 groups of roaches in the middle of the map, and that it was going to be an absolutely nasty surround, but then he just countered with a few of them and hid the rest in his main and got destroyed.

So this should put to rest any discussion on how much time and effort is needed to learn to execute a 2 base all in vs zerg vs how much it takes to learn to defend it.

People should cut JD some slack. That's one of the strongest timings in the game right now, and it's easier to execute than to hold off well, especially if you've just practiced doing that single build over and over.

He'll be fine, just needs a bit more time to learn the ins and outs.

Haha, looks like Jaedong hasn't played a crazy amount of SC2. Pretty nice that he split little groups of roaches up to attack different areas, but pure roach really wasn't going to cut it there. Shame, but hey, the only way is up :D

wow must be such a bad feeling for these guys to have Brood War essentially taken from them and all they have left is this new game they're completely uncomfortable with. big uphill battle.

Jaedong started off well enough; his third was a bit late, but not enough to matter given what his opponent was doing. He completely botched the response to the 6 gate though, despite scouting it. That Immortal build is basically a counter to Stephano's heavy Roach attack, but a strong zerg push could have still overwhelmed it

This push is really holdable. JD just needs more practice

Yes, the immortal all-in has been very common lately in ZvP. But that EXACT build, which is the most clean/efficient version of an immortal all-in that I've ever found, was just used and introduced by MVPGenius in the GSL last Tuesday vs BbongbbongPrime in the up and down matches. I suspect By.Sun saw that game and copied/ripped that build from him.


Round of 24*; Up & Down hasn't been played yet.

It was over the moment Sun moved out to attack JD. He droned too much.


68 drones is only about 3 more than Stephano uses to crush that attack, he didn't really overdrone. He got too much gas.


You can't judge whether he overdroned or not by only looking at the number of drones made. He was about 1 inject cycle behind in roach/ling.
