he's got a point though, protoss and terran have many more early-mid game options, zerg has to macro and defend a lot first to be aggressive later on

Erm... they just started playing serious SC2. I have no doubts OSL koreans will kill foreigners very very soon

MLG anaheim's OSL koreans tournament is going to be very nice, I'd expect to see them playing a lot better by then

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.

68 drones is way too much, especially versus this very efficient version of the immortal all-in. Also because I suspect jaedong doesn't have perfect sc2 macro yet.


Wrong, 68 drones is close to perfect what you want on 3 base roach style.
Wrong. There is no golden drone number, you have to react to what your opponent is doing. In this case fully saturating all three bases was a mistake.
remember not to think too much and your trip will be numbingly pleasant

THIS EXACTLY.
People saying he played bad only looked at how he lost.
JD had top notch macro and micro but made horrible decisions.


Yeah, dead on mechanics, but he seemed like he was using them on all the wrong things - there wasn't much creep, lots of clumped roaches, poor engages. However, his roach control where he had them split into multiple groups was clearly there (but not used when he needed it most - when toss moves out), and his macro seemed to be really on.

aka he still has his muscle memory tuned to BW. Everything that is supposed to be natural for him is now unnatural.

Because they want somebody who has been playing the game for less than a month to be Bonjwa?? LOL. Idra trolling hard. lol./


Not only that but playing BW at the same time too.

If you play SC2, you need to play BW in the next team game and vice versa (it's no splitting the players to play one game, everyone has to play "both").

Alright guys, here's the deal. Jaedong's mechanics are great, but his decision making demonstrates a lack of understanding of SC 2.

He played Stephano style that game - max on roaches around 11:00 and then deny the Protoss third, which he was able to do because he has great mechanics and because Bysun didn't harass at all. Then, when Bysun moved out, the idea he was playing with was fine - counter attack the Protoss to stop reinforcements while delaying the Protoss army at his natural. The problem is, he retreated up his ramp into his base. Once you do that there's no way to force an engagement and then Protoss just has to survive your attack to win. Hell, Bysun had the ability to bring back the bulk of his army to defend his base while infinite FFing Jaedong's ramp until he got burrow movement, which was late.

Jaedong needs better decision making. That comes with time.

Pretty sure they are coming

Looking forward to seeing Flash play a broadcast SC2 match. At least I think it would make sense to play SC2 this weekend then heavier practice in BW for a bit for OSL and next PL match.

Well look, the metagame currently hasn't properly figured out how to deal with the immortal push. Burrow and roaches was a nice thought but really that will also struggle against it because of how anti-roach the composition is. I've seen stephano opt for infestor/ling to deal with that push, and it seems like it should be the way to go.
