Sigh, JD's gonna make 2nd place yet again >_>
Polt is awesome, though.

Have a better ECON, you'll never be more cost efficient than Bio mine.

What I don't get there as a Terran player is I don't personally think Polt ever really had an advantage, it's just bio is so cheap he could always keep bringing in more units :/

Really a shame...
Dude it's an assymetric game, zerg are favored when high eco.


and when is Protoss favoured?


Everytime.

Can't believe JD let his macro slip that badly, 1.5/1 k resources without banking for tech? I think he might have been out of larva though.

He outmultitasked JD this game. He was everywhere JD couldn't follow.

You don't. You got to prevent his stream of units before it hit its peak. Some Zerg just play a Roach/Bane all in every game, others try some weird non-stop Ling/BLing aggression. But I haven't seen a Zerg winnig once the Terran really established enough eco to start his attacks in quite some time.

Come visit the designated balance thread. You will soon discover that Zerg is apparently a severe underdog at all stages of the game.

Was there a point where JD had an advantage that gave him the chance to win?

If there was ever an advantage for Polt, I guess it's his incredible abilities with bio, those kind of games really suit him down to the ground

man, even I could feel Jaedong's frustrated there. Those widow mine hits, especially that one at the reconstructed 3rd was just crazy efficient.

Mines are just too efficient period. The fact that they cost almost as much as a baneling. Multi-use. active target. You can't ignore the math.

Not really. JD couldn't follow, because he had to go for Ultralisks and they are kinda slow. You can't chase every smaller attack squad down once you reach T3.

They do friendly fire though. Unlike banelings.
