ITT: Mentally challenged diamond/low master kids cry because jd didn't win with his inferior zvt. Had it been taeja at the finals and jd would have won.
Also, startale life is just going to destroy every terran he faces now.

please explain the "mmmwm camper" part when biomine was only used in 2 of the 4 wins please.

Also let's ignore things like forgetting baneling speed in game 1, sitting on Lair all game in game 2, atrocious baneling micro all series, scouting cheese and still losing to it and then actually losing to marine/tank.

let's be honest here -- jd played like shit against bomber. if jd played as well against bomber as he did against polt, he would have won that tournament pretty handily.

jd vs bomber isn't exactly a point to the fact that zvt is unbeatable, but that ZvT is incredibly punishing of small mistakes by the Zerg while being heavily the opposite for Terran. yes, he forgot baneling speed, but he was still far enough ahead to win if he wasn't fucked up by a single widow mine hit. you have to look at those gamechanging widow mine hits and go "really? this is what decides a game?"

polt vs. jd // soulkey vs. innovation is where you can see the ridiculous "balance" that is ZvT. in those games, the Zerg players played extremely well and still got their faces smashed.

I understand the sentiment here but it's the same way in TvP. Terran can be ahead the entire game and then have one mis-micro with ghosts and eat a big storm that is essentially the same "really? this is what decides a game?". It sucks, but it is what it is.

Conversely, the Protoss can miss-micro his HTs into ghost range, lose all his storms, morph archons and be perfectly fine.
Wait, what?

pretty sure if a good terran blankets your templar, you instantly lose 9/10 times
