At least in the next match Stephano is going first. Just blindly put Taeja, Hero and JD after him and EG-TL should be ok.

Hydra's best matchup is ZvP, his ZvZ is up there, and ZvT is his worst (cf. last week's game vs Speed). Hence I would not have sent a Protoss, especially not on Neo Caldeum after they reduced the armor and hit points of the rocks and blocking structures making it much harder for Protoss to secure their natural.

I would have thus sent TaeJa. He did not get wrist surgery, just electrotherapy (judging by the Twitter picture). But let's assume he couldn't play, then instead I would have sent either ThorZaiN or Zenio (Jaedong apparently wasn't at the studio). ThorZaiN ain't too bad at TvZ and Zenio's best matchup is ZvZ.

I hope EG-TL will play their players differently in the future. There's no point in giving exposure to everyone on the team when in the end you will lose more than half your matches in Proleague.

Oh well. What's done is done. Thankfully I have Hydra on my FPL team.

Ironically I think this is a decent strategy for success. I'm afraid we're "overcoaching" when we put in HuK or JYP for a particular situation.

I don't think JD and PuMa are back from the US yet, or if they are they're probably super jet-lagged.

I don't really have a problem with them going with JYP who has a "hot hand." and has been doing well.

Yeah, but who did he play? And two of those wins came from this Round, where he got 2 wins in the winner's format. Two of HerO's losses were to Rain and Flash, and his other loss was because he failed to wall off against a Zerg. I don't remember his 4th loss.

So can we stop arguing about whether or not HerO > JYP in terms of a pick and focus on why exactly Taeja didn't play? His surgery obviously didn't stop him from sweeping his Up/Downs group.

It really is, even despite the TL aces' uninspired play lately.

I don't know why a lot of people are blaming the map when it's clear that regardless, JYP did not look prepared *at all*. So it's either his fault for not preparing or the coach's fault for not sending someone else out.

Thorzain streams hours upon hours of HOTS every week. JD and Puma were just at an event in Las Vegas. They release silly interview videos. Preparation obviously isn't their main priority.
