HerO played to win. He now qualified for the grand finals and a shot at 100k. Can't blame him for using the strongest build for the map. Dont hate the player, hate the game (designer).

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.


Well based on the few games that happened before, a lot of all-ins that happened continued to be an attack after attack.

Guys, I heard you like micro, and want SC2 to have more situations where amazing micro can let great players distinguish themselves from good ones.

Oh, wait.


That shouldnt entail having several tools which all limit or removes the opponents chance to micro. Timewarp, because forcefields just werent dumb enough.


Those comments are always cute. Everything removes chances to micro if you go at it like this. Storm just creates a giant void zone around a Templar you cannot enter with to many units.

I really think JD should have gone for infestors instead of hydra, they provide more utility

Bad engagements from Jaedong and absurdly good micro from Hero.

how can you engage good on yoensu vs FF?

I hope David Kim watched that game, so he can see how easy it is to micro against forcefields. Seriously, all Jaedong had to do was micro better, against those terrain changing walls that he can`t do anything against.

Her0 never lost with this immortal all-in + warp prism micro... what the fuck can zerg do after the 3-4th push when the immortal count get higher and higher...


Yeah, that's really the question. What can you do? JD scouted everything and did everything you could expect from a Zerg player. Yet the all-in wins.

Wow man. That is by far the best tournament I have seen in the last couple month. Games are amazing as hell and the stories and comebacks are brilliant. Really really happy about it

Seriously! I've never seen a tournament have this many good games. Better than Blizzcon IMO.

Can't believe people thought that was a good game. Absolutely dreadful. This is the epic game SC can showcase now?


Well, it was a tense game, but quality wise it was not a good game. It was a ridiculous strong all-in killing a macro player. Something we could see in SCBW since the early 2000s. Though all-ins when scouted were not THAT strong back then.

One could really wonder how such an all-in can be held off, as JD was doing everything you could expect from a zerg player and scouted everything. But this is the wrong thread for this.


JD threw that game hard. Deal with it.
