JYP as an ace sort of made sense?

I mean it's a nice twist in case WS had some snipe build for JD, Hero, and Taeja but given that JYP lost a horrible game right before which he threw it was the worst decision they could make.

Who would you have sent out in PuMa's stead or what b.o. would you ask of him? sHy is very good and it was a hard draw regardless like the rest. It had ace match written all over it.

I'm pretty sure if you're in PuMa's situation, you HAVE to focus the Stalker first. Probes come last in priority.

No. It's Antiga shipyard, a well known, well played SC2 map. It's Protoss. How many Protoss SC2 build orders do we have? I don't know how it compares to Brood War, but I don't see how playing JYP would give you any advantage over HerO. Who's our (EG-TL) coach, again? It's not Hwanni, it's a former KeSPA team coach or something. Does he have a lot of SC2 experience, or just from the hybrid PL?

Oh well, so much for "EG-TL are the favorites for proleague" predictions in the TL articles before proleague started.

First match we lost 0-4, but you can "blame" the fact that Taeja and HerO weren't there and Thorzain and JYP didn't play well up to their usual standard. For this match, I'm pretty sure HerO would have been the heavy favorite against sHy. If you're going to play a Protoss, then you should just play HerO, not JYP. Perhaps this was a case of "over-coaching"?

If you read player interviews, the Ace pick is usually picked internally before the day's match starts so they can prepare for the map. So the player's performance on that day in their 1st match doesn't really play a factor whether they are sent out or not. Not saying JYP was the best pick, just that too many people think the Ace is decided by the coach when they get to 3-3, which is not usually the case.

The Ace picks are blind so the teams don't know who/which race they will be playing.

You can't chase down kill a stalker with 4 unstimmed marines unless the P doesn't micro at all.

JYP is fairly ok of a player, he reached code S ro16 getting 3rd in his group before going all the way to code B, his vP and vZ are actually fairly decent and at least code A level, its his vT that fucks him up (actually tbh hes vT has gotten leagues better nowadays but still pretty bad)

I kinda like the fact that JYP was sent out, reminds me of what happened to Hwaseung Oz when their coach would send out Killer instead of JD. Everyone knows that HerO and TaeJa are really strong players anyway and JYP needs to build some confidence. Don't hate on his choice. Samsung KHAN knows really well that weird ace picks might lose you games here and there but it's your team itself and not two players that will make or break you in PL.

A pity... we should have had this boys. At 3-2 I was sure we'd seal this. But oh no... two sloppy games and one questionable coach decision. Oh man, feels bad :/

I wouldn't say one of their worst, he is certainly a very good player, I just thinks it's weird to send him as the ace. In this case it was a PvP in what he is decent, note particulary impressive but good. Of couurse they hoped for a Zerg because he has good PvZ. The strangest thing for me as ace is his really weak PvT, I mean if the others send out a Terran it's basically over. HerO might be a more mentally volatile player but he is good at all three match-ups which makes him at the current time the best ace for EG-TL.
JYP is better used as Sniper with good prepared builds I think. But then again I have no clue about such things so I give them the benefit of the doubt.

First of all, JYP's v T has gotten much better. But more importantly, they were playing woongjin. Have you looked at their Terran line up? I don't think they would send out hon_sin as their ace...
