After watching the past 2 proleague games of Jaedong I am beginning to wonder if he has become suicidal.

Jaedong vs Light
+ Show Spoiler +



and

Jaedong vs Stork
+ Show Spoiler +


In both of these games he made horrible decisions with his lings. Its almost like he didn't care. Maybe he is getting tired of carrying OZ on his back? Did a coach piss him off? I hope this suicide mission ends before his next GOM/OSL/MSL matches.


Your thoughts TL?

Edit: Its not about jaedong slumping, in fact just talking about one of these 2 games is worth a discussion. "The best player in the world" made a D level mistake and to make matters worse he diid it twice in a row. Why? I would like to think there is something behind it. Responses like "don't worry about it" or "zomg jaedong is slumping because he lost 2 games -> get over it" is not a response intended for this thread.

OZ doesn't need to win those games, and the coach realizes that so he's giving Jaedong more time to practice for his 3 starleagues where he will face the likes of bisu, fantasy, and effort.

He's not slumping by any means.

His game tonight versus Yarnc will help clear things up a bit.

This should be a blog.

To embed youtube clips onto TL, you should just paste the youtube address in the spoiler. TL will handle the embedding.

No, he is suicidal. I think it's normal for Jaedong to lose. He's not a bonjwa.

Not really, he could drop this game to eliminate Flash and also because it's ZvZ.
Why doesn't Bisu get a thread like this? Geez, people need to stop overreacting when Jaedong loses.

Good point, but just to throw games away like that.... Especially vs light, the decision to try to break the entrance was horrible, and very unlike jaedong. He still has his kespa ranking to worry about and fans to keep happy.

What I meant was to watch how Jaedong played, as in whether or not he makes poor decisions and suicides his Zerglings.

Also, why would he drop his game on purpose? Beating Yarnc allows him to advance uncontested, and if he dropped his game in an unconvincing fashion, Flash could simply throw his game versus Effort in retaliation to force Jaedong into tie-breakers, which Jaedong might or might not advance out of.

From what I've gathered from interviews, the relationship between Flash and Jaedong isn't one of spite.

Not condoning his losses, but I would rather he drop two PL games when his team is a lock for the 2nd seed and concentrate on his individual leagues more than vice-versa.
I see ur point Sigurn.

Indeed. There's no way Jaedong can possibly lose two games in a row. It's just impossible. Stork and Light must've had some incriminating photos of Jaedong and forced him to suck.

That said, if Jaedong loses to Yarnc, it would be a strategical loss. No way you let Flash advance if you can have Yarnc do so intead.

Actually, they do. The difference between the #1 seed and the #2 seed is huge.

Well, after they lost to Khan, they didn't need to win vs MBC. Or is that still one game off?

Jaedong has shown a lot of ZvT games where he gets too greedy/overconfident and gets killed/crippled by a sunk break.

As for the game against Stork, I have no idea. That was just terrible.

(Z)Jaedong doesn't lose games.
He just decides not to win them.
