He did that because he saw that Reality took gas and was getting factory so any bunker rush could be held off with drone only. It's like when Flash does depot scout into CC first upon seeing 12hat on maps like Benzene. You're just properly reacting to what you see. | ||

I know haha, i read JDs explanation in the interview It just seems kinda counter intuitive to build a late pool when u have a rax outside | ||

So many layers of depth and genius to what Reality did that game. Can't really do it enough justice. | ||

Watch out for that kid! | ||

He does not lose random matches to some random player like Ssak or Classic. Nice analysis, but I'd like to remind you that while he didn't lose to random players he lost to bogus players. | ||

I meant to compare there JD's strong MU in PvZ to Flash's TvT, implicitly, in individual leagues. When was the last time JD was taken out of and individual starleague by a protoss? | ||

I just don't think you should call someone ignorant or say they can't read and sarcastically say "Amazing!" etc etc. | ||

That said, it's very easy to question Jaedong's PvZ as of late and assume he might not sweep. I just don't think you should call someone ignorant or say they can't read and sarcastically say "Amazing!" etc etc. Where is "Amazing"? :p Again I was refering to individual leagues. His ZvP loses come from PLs, but in BoX he is a monster. Only Bisu can rape him silly. Yet, last time they met BoX, JD won 3-2! | ||

Also, Bisu has lost the bo1, bo3, and bo5 he's played against Jaedong in individual leagues, so I wouldn't be too trigger happy on saying he could beat Jaedong in a BoX. I assume Jaedong turns it up in individual leagues since you can prepare moreso in those than in proleague. | ||

No need to dwell on it In the same vein, Jaedong has beaten any protoss he meets at BoX in individual leagues. Point Im saying is among any of them, only Bisu has a legitimate shot at winning against JD. | ||

Bisu is an enormous choke in recent years in individual leagues, even against zergs. I'd give Movie the best shot at upsetting Jaedong in a best of series (Snow almost did it with CJ's preparation and he is nowhere near as good as Movie in the matchup). Bisu is a close #2 and would be #2 if he didn't keep failing out of MSL/OSL =\ | ||
