JD fixed his JvP and his ZvZ was always stellar. Now he needs to fix his ZvT.
Remember, you can't even blame balance because two of the games widow mines didn't come into play. He botched the defence against triple bunker and bomber won the last set with rine/tank... rine tank... come on...
I think in this tournament, both JD and Bomber proved that they could dismantle Tosses like tossing toothpicks. Scarlett showed she could stick in with top Code S Koreans.
Worried for Innovation. He's been getting spanked left and right and a loss to Naniwa... wow...

A week ago someone like you had stated "Omg JD in an P only group, he can't do this its his weakest matchup"..and now cry about him overcoming his "weakest matchup" this fast and getting through to the finals with beating some of the best PvZ's out there o.O? His loss vs. Bomber was sad, but TvZ is very abusable since Innovation showed his "how to" several times against top Zergs...but u can't shit on JD for getting through to the finals this way...no one in hell (that only has access to his televised matches from the last Tournaments) would've given JD a proper chance for the finals if you told them who he's going to face. ...people these days...allways bitching about everything... I predicted about 3 months ago that JD would overcome his troubles vs protoss and win this tournament. I got one of them right :p Are you a wizard  ? Obv he'd overcome his troubles when he simply puts enough time in his practice and knows where his faults are... His trouble with zvp was massively over stated, and his rate of improvement was pretty quick. Honestly speaking, unless something bizarre happens I expect him to win the next season finals + blizzcon.

i watched the VODs of the semis last night and the finals just now and i'm so fucking happy right now. today is gonna be a good day. Bomber is a fucking monster. it looks like one of my top 3 favorite players is about to take the spot another one used to hold (Mvp). perfect game sense, great series planning, huge variety of builds, high mental strength, and he actually has better macro than Mvp when he won fucking everything.
holy fuck i feel so good right now.
Bomber is very much like Mvp with better macro but I think his series planning is not as good as Mvp's yet. If you look at the series against Rain in OSL, when his plan didn't go well he kinda fell apart and just lose badly.

I haven't really seen any zergs able to do anything about it. I wouldn't look to this series for balance, Bomber was keeping up in supply with Jaedong even before any engagements happen when Zerg is supposed to be ahead in supply, also Bomber was usually getting a lead before he even got 3/3.
zergs do not have supply leads in standard TvZ anymore. especially when the terran isn't even building any marauders

He prepared perfectly against First, I guess it was more important than to train TvZ, too, overnight. He only had to play against protoss until after his semi final so I don't blame him for not preparing too much. The same thing goes for bomber, though and he looked phenomenal.

TT Jaedong will come back next time for sure!

Bomber has been a fucking macro god even when he honestly wasn't winning much. before Innovation and Flash hit the sc2 scene he was clearly the best macro terran in the world imo. even now it's arguable, but those two are some pretty strong competition in that regard. Bomber has an experience and game sense advantage on both of them though imo.

As much as I love mvp, bomber is a mechanical god. Watch his stream and you will see how clean he plays. I don't think any terran is better at macro. Mvp's strengths lie elsewhere.

Just watched the finals. Wow, what a stomping. I thought it would be 4 - 2 to Bomber but nothing so one-sided.
Well deserved win by a great SC2 player.

Lol rubbish. He's anything but a "generic Terran" who "managed to survive" after terran imbalance. He frequently displays Brilliance, and showed it off plenty of times over the weekend against innovation and Rain in particular.

To be fair, I always found it weird people look at macro and micro independently. Once you get to the mid game, it is all about how you spread your APM. Bomber always prioritized macro (so he sometimes loses armies due to lack of micro). He was the opposite of MKP who would prioritize his micro. Mvp was successful because he found the best balance between the two (Innovation is probably the best at balancing the 2 right now, but his strategies aren't as flexible).

but they are rather independent skills though, macro is more than just putting APM into building marines and such. mkp at his peak had some pretty damn good micro and macro, and players like bogus/flash are pretty solid at both.
