Arrghh so frustrating watching JD's games today! I don't know what it is, mechanically he is going pure beast-mode, but his unit comps don't seem to be stacking up well against his opponent's.

It feels like the only Zergs at the moment that have the decision-making plus the mechanics are DRG and Soulkey. I dunno... Watching JD on ladder recently and he has been destroying protoss players, even on maps like Alterzim and Yeonsu.

He makes bad units. That's it. If he'd play swarm host more often I'm confident he'd do far better against toss. Muta base trade too. Making roach/hydra against someone like Rain on a huge map, it's never going to work, it hasn't worked since 2012. It's just about making bad stuff and then dying to good stuff.

That was a really good game from Rain. Proxyed the dark shrine and chronoboosted his Twilight when the scouting phoenix flew over.

Yea I guess. He seems to go Swarm Host a lot on ladder too, so I don't know what happened here.

T1 toss domination. Funny how the main events can't be as stacked as these qualifiers. ^^ Thanks for the games.

#YearofSKTProtoss way to go Classic and Rain! :D
PartinG fanboy to the max, Rain/Squirtle/Dear/Scarlett/Bbyong are cool too. I don't always watch Dota2 but when I do I have no clue what's going on. GOGO POWER RANGERS

Classic and Rain... those two guys are going to tear through IEM. Possibly the strongest duo to ever make it through an IEM qualifier.

Poor Jaedong.

Those SKT Protosses look increasingly frightening. Someone´s gotta stop them.
