Jaedong could have won that game if he played better. Hero won because he pulled off some amazing micro with forcefields, army positioning & micro, and immortal pickups w/ warp prism, and macroed well behind it. Jaedong's macro slipped at a few points, and he made a few bad decisions. He also could have microed better at a few points.

This is the way an extremely competitive sport works at the highest levels.

Cmon guys. Jaedong should have pulled those probes way earlier (i.e. when Hero brought his). Don't wait for army supplies to be even and then do a prayer pull. Great win from Hero (speaking as a huge anti-fan!).

How else are you gonna get close to his army if not attacking from different angles?

I'm a DotA player, never played SC but I love to watch it. All I can conclude from that game is that Hero found a sweet spot to abuse the forcefields.

Whole map is the sweet spot for force fields. I know that JD was making a lot of mistakes and that cost him the game, I am just sad that hero was for 20 minutes on 2 bases and in the end that Immortal Sentry all-in still worked... I don't even know why it is called all-in when he pushes like 5 times in a row and constantly gets repelled until the last one.

Yes, the off creep attack was not really well chosen

Nah, MKP after losing in any of the 3 GSL Finals he was in. That was heartbreaking.

redeye saying these games are the best ever in any SC2 tournament lol

that hyping up



Well seriously, for once the forcefields made up for a really entertaining game

That's hard as shit to hold as zerg, JD did it but drop his lead away by counter attacking even if hero save his 2 immortals

Then he had to play even with the second all in wave of Hero.

That was an epic game.et là

I can definetely admire great forcefields when you have a limited number of them and use them to their full potential. But I hate seeing 8-10 sentires in a army with casters shouting "GREAT FORCEFIELDS!!!!"

we wanted TvZ.
The true noble blood matchup of starcraft, the essence of the licence.


I'm sad for no TvZ.
Happy that JD is out.
Happy that Hero is in finals.

Jaedong had no business engaging off creep against that final push, he lost most of his hydralisks there and that's what allowed Hero to snowball. If he had just waited at home and engaged on creep, he had that game no problem.

Fight off 4-gateway cheese, fight off immortal all ins, still not enough to win. Waiting for Polt to dismantle him now.
Parting: Well, even I can make better maps than these.
