Yes im also rooting for good games and an Ace match of course so I can see JD play both bw and Sc2 :D Oh and if T8 wins this, they will be in 2nd place!!! TEAM 8 FOR PLAYOFF
Bogus scv didnt scout the proxy and didnt get into Jaehoon's main. Dt going for his nat Dt got in his main, another one coming. Bogus backed his units when he realize that
These dragoon vs bunker shenanigans are what got me into BW. I copied that so much, thinking that masters the plinking at a bunker would overcome my 30 APM.

mini is destroying. sea can't defend against these storm + 2 zealot drops.
Sea keeps playing passively lately, even when he has a great advantage. See the last game he played, it was against some terran had +50 supply then just turtled until they were both maxed.
so fucking sad/mad we won't get to see protoss man generation 2.0 with shy/mini leading the way (mini for overall ballerness, shy for his like 5 shuttle drop way back on icarus, then hallucinated arbiters, and also making bogus leave game without gg by being a general protoss fag man)

Or were they 'fuck it i lost' :D scouts?
My friend is theorizing that they moght have been built while waiting for the fleet bacon and gambling on there not being a lot of AA but then goliaths.
edit/ oh god this interview is hilarious, trap mentioned that in practice that people were saying his playstyle was too timid, so he's been working on that, casters are calling the results of this "texas style" and "cowboy like" XD
Wow how did Sayle even remotely think JD was winning that fight haha, stalkers are the counter to roaches w/o lings and there weren't any spines for JD.

Jaedong actually could have held that, he should have pulled back sooner and not kept following him off creep. Should have stayed near his third and attacked when force dotherwise building up roach/ling and eventually he would kill it.

That's what I meant, he was doing fine at the beginning but then overcommitted and simply didn't let his 3 base snowball enough.

he had the units to hold, he just fucked up the control a bit (mainly fighting off creep and up that ramp)
its over. jd smashed bogus. he had just enough to kill bogus's army efficiently, and enough to get in the production line. really impressed by that kill move. i was kinda scared for a second when bogus's army was rolling in.
Hahaha that was awesome, really interesting how he used his infestors + a group of lings to delay the attack while he used his whole army to counter the natural and third.
I'm happy for jaedong, but seeing this happen so often in ZvT nowadays makes me sad, terran moves out, zerg counter attacks, nobody does anything even slightly worthy of note, terran's base effectively vanishes before they reach the zerg base, g g, meh.

I think it's at least 4.
his confidence must be really high by now. i hope he does well in all of the individual leagues too. it would be great to watch jaedong make deep runs in any of the tournaments.

I called it wrong too when casting. Usually zerg holds this push with 3 hatch roach/ling easily, but his roach speed was late and he engaged poorly with too few units off creep right near the reinforcement pylon.
Never thought I would ever see T8 2nd place on the rankings! Awww yeah! Hahaha what a glorious ceremony by JD. Too bad he didn't win his game against Dear.

yeah... that shouldn't be right unless they use some weird weighting system lol. liquipedia says +11
Not sure what the real number should be, but I've been seeing it >+8 for a few weeks now.
It is right. Liquipedia is counting by Broodwar/SC2 series. But KeSPA is counting by maps won, which afaik is what KeSPA will use as tiebreakers. So that's why it is displayed there.
The Dong is really good at making giftastic moments.
KT might not be able to grab a play-off spot(or will they? :p), so I'm gonna cheer for my 2nd fave this season, T8!!!! 6-win streak with JD having some ace match streaks too! It makes my heart flutter that JD was able to still become the team's ace during the transition unlike teams who sends out random dudes like trap and by.sun rofl.
Edit: That JD's smile might just've convinced me to watch the PL seasons after this one. The game might not be as exciting, but these players that I've known and loved for years might at least make it FUN watching.

That's why he's called LWWW Zerg.
He always loses the first game so he can get pumped and take the set.
