Well he prob won't show anything aside from your standard builds / cheese stuff since a player like him would prob never want anyone to have a VOD of what he experiments/practices for certain match ups. BW players were really notorious for coming out with specific builds for specific matches at the time of the match that took place. Some of those builds in BW became legendary other times it was just used for one time snipes for certain match ups so I doubt we'll see anything crazy outta him on stream.

Such a treat to watch, I almost tear up!

Whoa - just watching his ZvZ and ZvT makes my jaw drop. Not completely sold on his ZvP, but in god we trust

Jaedong has fucking sick apm and multi task, hes all over the map at once even if hes being attacked or getting harassed hard. Once he gets better at countering specific unit combinations and learns proper tech counters he will be at the top no doubt. Hes not like flash because flash is really good at adapting to any situation any second and learning a bunch of strats/unit combos really quick.
Jaedong on the other hand is more reliant on his insane map control, apm, macro, late game micro/unit control and his ability to just overpower his opponent with zergs unit as the game goes longer and longer, hes not the best at making/defending really specific unit combos in the early/mid game and needs a lot more time to learn and hammer everything out, he cant adapt as quickly as flash.
JAEDONG fighting!!! hes my favourite player tha'ts not in star's

I always knew that Jaedong had extremely good micro. I mean it was obvious after seeing him double mutalisk harass like he did in BW.
However seeing it from a first person in a game that i have gotten so used to see slow and drab played at such a high speed is just...it sheds a new light on just how fast you had to process events in BW to be good at it. I can't follow what Jaedong even does half the time.
He's going about half as slow as he had to go in BW.

I think that's a large exaggeration
but it's also only natural that he isn't at his maximum speed because he hasn't figured out everything he can/should be doing yet
also yeah this really is just such a treat to watch he is making the mechanics of other sc2 players look so bad, even the good streamers

I don't agree. Slower maybe but not by much. His ability to fend off an attack and harass the main base at the same time is just...wow...
I'm a huge fan of BW and all that but Jaedong is playing this REALLY REALLY fast. He's by far the quickest SC2 streamer I've seen yet. Like his mechanics make everyone else I've seen look like crap in comparison.

Heh. I just saw Jaedong in panic mode a few games ago. Late game ZvP, Jaedong found himself in a very bad position with the Protoss deathball heading his way to deliver the death blow. What does Jaedong do?
He flips out, grows 5 extra hands and, unfortunately, also shows up why apm =/= skill. As cool as it was to see just how fast he could be, by and large it was a completely futile gesture. It doesn't matter if you engage in 3 places at once if you smash your face into photon cannons at every single one of them.

its gonna take time for jaedong to counter these specific deathball combos, in BW there was no such thing you could be a lot more spread out.

Hes considerably new to SC2 and I can see some really great games from him already!

His muta play vs P on Ohana is so wicked haha
