Do we just show up? I like the fact Goswser got an invite. It's live as in the games are broadcast live from there with the players present. It is a private event. These players qualified after topping 700 registered players from over the past three months. A few of them were Top 16 invites, but many qualified. | ||

I don't really mind either way, just curious, and shall be entertaining tournament to watch as well I'm sure! Yeah, fixed! | ||

Could you not have just flown Suppy and Goswser to Korea instead? Much better for the players than this silly event that ends up screwing over more than half the competitors. (Yes, I know it's in Vegas for a reason, but it still seems dumb to fly 5 of 6 players (since I think Goswser is in France?) to a place rather than 2 of 6 to a different place, especially given other schedules. And there are lots of casters in Korea so I don't consider flying out casters) | ||

It is like saying they should have MLGs in Seoul since the Top 16 are likely to be Koreans anyways... Hell, tournaments should just give their prize pool to GSL, OSL, PL and GSTL and be done with it. | ||

And this tournament is Jan 8-9th... hmmm, not liking this. Hopefully JD won't be jet lagged or whatever when he gets back =/ Actually they mentioned this in the cast (Wolf & Khaldor) yesterday. Because they weren't even sure if MC and JD could even make it (this was before all the matches finish didn't know whether MC/JD would finish). But I think they mentioned that they would get back at 4 PM on the 11th (someone else watching the screen can confirm this?) It is pretty much the same situation that HerO and Taeja had to face in Code A matches (they were heading back from NASL). | ||

Razor thin timing coupled with late-ish spores means an MC victory. Crazy macro too, maxed with +3 attack and all the relevant ground upgrades before JD finishes his Broods. | ||

edit: I think JD still needs to master the strategic aspects of sc2, because he has more than enough mechanics to pull off Life-esque plays. You can tell he's a deliberate guy though, I think his one-step-at-a-time approach will pay off hugely in the long run | ||

He just engages awful pretty much every game i watch him play (including the games he has played when streaming). Stephano would win most of the game jaedong loses if stephano could control the fight for jaedong. | ||

Well but I am pretty sure that Stephano could still explain how/when Jaedong should engage and when to retreat if they looked the replays through together (assuming they could remove the language barrier). | ||

Any longer, and maybe the BL count would have become insurrmountable. | ||

Yeah... he looks like a force of nature sometimes. But he doesn't understand what to do it seams. If he only had a fraction of his understanding of BW in sc2, he would never drop games against MC like this. Now he has done it three times in three days. Really snatching defeat out of the jaws of victory. | ||

Especially considering he has the mechanics to do ANY strategy well, he just needs to develop a holistic feel for what to do in different situations. | ||

Of course. I am just thinking that it might be dependant on scouting? I didn't see his scouting timings clearly so I don't know. Parting does a 17 nexus build where you get an inert gas and a gate so that if you scout some crazy stuff out of T you can get your core and gas to defend rather than exp. So it might be something similar to that. But then again... It wouldn't make a lot of sense. | ||

Personally I also find it strange that a pro as good as Yonghwa would make a mistake so early in his build, especially one could delay his tech and army significantly. | ||

Stephano put it well: "Ze EG curse? Are you stupid?" Hell, you could say there exists a curse of most foreign teams out there. Oh no, Sheth and Ret are slumping! Liquid curse! Nerchio isn't looking as good as he once did! Acer curse! Mana hasn't won a tournament in a few months! Mouz curse! Believing that a player who joins EG will automatically slump makes about as much sense as believing that Barack Obama was born in Kenya. Oh yes, I just went there :p | ||

If a tournament has problems connecting to twitch (there seem to be no general internet problems, as bnet works), can't they just try streaming over another platform? like owned or ustream or whatnot. | ||

Oh yes, I just went there :p A big part of Jaedongs success was that he truly loved playing for Lecaf/Hwaseung OZ. They had a strong sens of playing together as a team and Jaedong never really recovered when his coach left. I don't think he could perform as well on a team that buys players left and right. And I don't think this only applies to him, that is maybe why people jokingly talks about an EG curse. Just my two cents... | ||

Idra, I guess... In OZ, for instance, Anytime, Forgg, Jaedong... they were all OZ players. | ||

They had a strong sens of playing together as a team and Jaedong never really recovered when his coach left. I don't think he could perform as well on a team that buys players left and right. And I don't think this only applies to him, that is maybe why people jokingly talks about an EG curse. Just my two cents... There's the problem. Some people aren't joking. They actually believe that once a player joins EG, that the player will automatically slump, and that the cause of slumping can be blamed on joining EG. Joking is one thing, and I admit I've joked about the "curse" as well, but to believe it as fact would be just preposterous. | ||

He said he was 1-1 on twitter before the last two wins (but Antiga is there twice so I assume a bad version of the map once). | ||

Suppy really should have actually involved the queens in the fight BEFORE the rest of the army died though. Just my piece of lower level advice to him. | ||

Probably get those drones out and get a few more roaches instead of the 12-16 zreglings Suppy got. | ||

In the first game, Suppy was going for his zergling infestor corruptor queen brood lord but had plenty of drones killed, mainly by the third, over numerous hellion raids. Puma had does some banshee harassment earlier, mostly successful but he lost more banshees than he should have when at one point they engaged by Suppy's third, with about 4 cloaked banshees and Suppy, who originally did not have detection, managed to hold back until an overseer morphed, engaged, fended it off reasonably but lost 3-4 of his 7+ (maybe 9) queens, all of his moderate number of roaches and some more drones. The game would likely have ended sooner had Puma kept more banshees alive (lost at least one to a spore). Eventual big late game battle, seeker missiles brutally ripped apart enough of the army with 8 or so vikings and 2-3 thors dealing enough to suddenly drastically change the supply amounts from similar to 120 or less vs 170+. Puma tore through the queens that for some reason weren't actually (as far as I could tell) transfusing the Brood Lords in front of them and the game was won for Puma. In the second game, painful brutal blue flame hellions continually murdered many drones until Puma had three bases and could hold off the units that Suppy threw at him in desperation. | ||

I see. Not my intention to start an argument here of course but that sounds retarded. Who the hell changes a tournament's format while it's running? Except FIDE I mean. It just comes off as amateurish to me, and certainly not fair to the four other qualified players (neither of whom, it seems at the moment, will play in the finals.) | ||

It's a mirror match, efficiency is very important. This game reminded me of that game Life played on Cloud Kingdom against Violet in the Blizzard cup, where he was attacking and harassing all game and was ahead in bases, but ended up losing because he had lost over 10K more resources than Violet towards the end. Jaedong did a lot of harassing and multi-pronged attacking, but he wasn't trading well most of the time. | ||

Holy shit, goswser came out ahead in pretty much every real fight they had and had a better army composition for most of the game. Sc2 isn't a speed clicking contest, you can lose the game even if you play faster than the other guy if your strategy is inferior | ||

But if the superior combination is boring to watch, then the game design has problems. Speed is always more enjoyable to watch in any sports. | ||

I mean, everyone loves to see Banelings blow things up, but if I attack all over the place with Banelings and lose too many resources compared to the damage I did, it doesn't matter how exciting it looked. From a strategic point of view, if you're sacrificing 7 Roaches to snipe a Hydralisk Den, unless you're somehow taking advantage of the fact that your opponent will not be able to build Hydralisks for the next 1.5 minutes, you're not really being efficient, you're just wasting resources. After Life lost that game I mentioned, he said he got some tips from his coach about improving his engagements and worked on it. Then he came back and destroyed his ZvZs in the following rounds. I think it's just some subtle things about unit compositions and engagements with SC2 units, that Jaedong needs more experience and practice with. | ||

If you watched jaedong at all you would notice he DID NOT do this stuff late game zvp and would lose late game zvp a lot. By saying JD has solved PvZ late game he is saying jaedong himself has figured out how to play zvp late game. Not anything revolutionary or new. | ||

It's not a cheese per say, but it's a unique strat that is meaning to end the game right away. | ||

Is massing slow lings or massing spines and broodlords spectacular in your eyes? There's actually two people playing here, believe it or not, not just Jaedong. | ||

Not quite outplaying considering that attack should have flat out ended the game. Instead MC played incredibly and made it last for like 10 minutes longer than it ever should have. | ||

They made phoenixes kinda fulfill their purpose yes. Then there were some prominent matches where genius incorporated some phoenixes and neutered DRG. Couple that with the rise of infestor play and that was just far far more safe, easy and reliable over mutaballs.

Thankfully MC is playing well enough to turn JD's aggression into some scrappy fun matches. It's just that there are more moments of MC pulling off some very notably good control and Jaedong just throwing economy at him. Eh, it depends on how you view the deck in the matchup. | ||

Toss holds them with FF without scouting and that's why they just survive. If a Zerg's all in get scouted then it should do no damage at all. | ||

It's never a big Protoss counter after a failed wave. However, that initial pressure is still viable, and has never really wavered when Toss takes an early-ish third with straight Robo tech. | ||

But If I practice against really good players, something starts to stir inside me. I don't want to get overthrown by those players so I practice really hard these days. Who are these players that stir you up inside? For Zergs, it's HyuN hyung and Jaedong hyung. They both progressed so rapidly. HyuN hyung has very minimal experience with televised matches but whenever I practice against him it's like "how in the world can I beat this player?". I don't know about Jaedong hyung's other match ups but for ZvP he is really good. | ||

He was at the semi finals of 1 mlg. Not sure how you got 2 considering he has only played in the actual MLG event 1 time. Also i'm not sure I would say flash is more accomplished. Jaedong made it 1 step further in code A then flash and was 1 win away from code S, jaedong also made it to at least the wild card where as flash didn't then along with this win which was harder then winning the MLG exhibition tournament when nobody really knew wtf they were doing (jaedong queen/roach nydus vs bisu anyone? )I would say their accomplishments are pretty even but I would not say flash is more accomplished. | ||

KeSPA Exhibition Tournament really doesn't count to me because all of the games were relatively lower level and more of a showmatch if anything. I also think winning a tournament is more than two semi-finals. | ||

HyuN hyung has very minimal experience with televised matches but whenever I practice against him it's like "how in the world can I beat this player?". I don't know about Jaedong hyung's other match ups but for ZvP he is really good. I love it when players are sincere and complimentary towards one another. | ||

Have they already done so or did they just go back on their word? | ||
