Stardust played near perfect against Jaedong game 1, Jaedong did early zergling attack in game two and rode momentum to victory Thanks fellas. Glad to see Polt advance, I was thinking he wouldn't. | ||

There was multi-tasking, of course, just more limited. Now we're seeing prism drops - which is like a boxer using just one arm before and now using both. ..... Oh my gawd. Amazing PvZ rightnow. I think you can't compare PvT between WOL and HOTS. In WOL, there was no MsC or oracle so the 9-10min stim push in PvT was so powerful that Protoss could hardly multitask with another front because it needed all the units to defend. They were just not given the opportunity to multitask, not that they couldn't. | ||

They were just not given the opportunity to multitask, not that they couldn't. Some builds are more common in PvT now, like the warp prism harass. But counterattacking with pylons and prisms, hiding Templar, moving about roving bands of Stalkers, etc. has always been a mainstay in different PvX matchup. But it's different based on metagame, map, play preferences, etc. | ||

He seems to be blaming the community for Jaedong playing badly for a lot of today, a fallacy that many people are falling into. I believe it is called "killing ESPORTS". | ||

I see it all the time, but now better Protoss are mixing in aggressive multi-tasking - which I love btw. | ||

Yeh thats definately it, I'm not just making an observation on kaeleris saying something to the effect of "despite jaedong getting second place 5 times in a row he's still practicing to be a top tier player" | ||
