Jaedong vs Alive
Game 1: Antiga Shipyard
Jaedong spawns as the red Zerg in the bottom right position
Alive spawns as the blue Terran in the top right position

2:00min
Jaedong going for the standard Hatch first, then Pool at 17
Alive opening with 1 Rax without Gas

4:00min
Alive goes for the 1-Rax-Expand with immediate Gas-follow-up
Jeadong scouts the Refinery with an Overlord, stays gas-less for now

6:00min
Jaedong builds more queens, now up to 4, building a 5th and takes a third base
Alive builds a 3rd CC and a Factory on his one Refinery

8:00min
Jaedong takes 2 Extractors and builds lots and lots of Drones and Creep Tumors
Alive builds Reactored Hellion and follows it up with 2 additional Rax and Stim research, now building the Starport on the Reactor from the Factory

10:00min
Jaedong scouts the additional Raxes with an Overlord, now goes for Double-Upgrades, Lingspeed and a defensive Baneling Nest and scouts the third CC with a Zergling
Alive also goes for Double-Ups, his 4 Hellions try to keep the watchtower but can't deny any creep

The creep is already halfway cross the map
A run-by attempt with a dozen Lings gets denied by Marines

12:00min
Alive does a drop with 2 Medivacs and is able to snipe the pool and get out without losing more then a few Marines
Jeadong is now teching to Infestors, is only a few seconds ahead on the 2-2 upgrades

Alive adds Tanks to his unit composition

14:00min
Jaedong techs to Hive and tries to take his fourth at the 6o'clock base
Alive tries to drop in the main and the third while running to the 4th with a few Marines

The drop in the Main gets denied but Alive just flies by and drops in the natural. Jaedongs buildings block his own lings from defending at the natural and he takes more damage then expected.
With fungal he is able to clean both drops up after losing several drones

16:00min
Alives army gets caught unsieged at the watchtower and with Fungal Jaedong can almost clean it up even though his banelings were blocked.

18:00min
Jaedong goes for Broodlords, burrow upgrade and more upgrades
Alive denies Jaedongs 5th base attempt and attacks down at Jaedongs 4th

20:00min
Jaedongs defends at his 4th but uses up a lot of Infestors energy in the process
Alive took his 4th at the 12o'clock position and built a planetary there.

Broodlords are now finished and Alive has to back off.

22:00min
Alive splits his army and takes out Jaedongs 5th again and catches the Broodlords off guard and kill most of them.
Jaedong suicides a lot of Banelings into Alives Planetary at his 4th base while Alive snipes the 4th of Jaedong with Marines

Jaedong seems to be falling behind on the multitasking. Jaedong now below 100 supply, Alive attacking into Jaedongs natural now.

Huge fungals and Baneling hits delay Alive but it's not enough and Jaedong is forced to write the GG!

Alive leads with 1-0!

Wish he would have went ultras T.T Still JD looked really good and antiga is like the last remaining map that is highly favored for terran.

no he didn't, just because he held on doesn't mean it was a close game, alive had the lead for the whole game...rofl

I'm really impressed with JD's control. He is still lacking in game sense and overall knowledge but wow... Perfect fungals/burrow, nice baneling traps, good awareness, awesome creep spread...

We watching the same game?

Banelings on tanks, horrible pathing, weak building placement, missing baneling mines 3 times?

Game was pretty good.
It's a greatterran map so Jaedong was suffering of every zerg nightmare on it, getting a fourth.
He fall a bit apart when aLive started to drop like crazy.
