Also great timing on that attack from Stork. He caught Jaedong transitioning to hive, attacking Jaedong after he invested all those resources in hive tech but before he could get defilers up.
Stork has very high respect for Jaedong. I hope- and that should be a mental boost for stork Whitch is always great and leads to many good stork games
You misheard. It's 'overpoooling' and it's just the nickname for a zerg build where you first build the overlord (once you max out at 9/9 drones) before you build your spawning pool, hence overpool. Other common starts are 9pool, 12 hatch and 12 pool, with the # indicating the drone count BEFORE putting down the indicated building. Overpool, because of its timing, is suppose to pressure a fast-expanding protoss to plunk down 2 cannons, or apparently plunk down 1 and pull 6 probes off the line!
5 hatch hydra shouldn't fold so easy when up till them it was going ok.
I think lurkers don't work too well at this point. They just get stormed, and aren't a good weapon against the protoss ball anyway. Stick with mass hydras, sure they get stormed too, but they're easier to macro. it's called 5 hatch hydra for a reason!
If variation desired, Mutas would have been better I think, or even broodlings! don't foget when zero smashed bisu with them!
JD tried to cheap out while he hive teched and conserve gas. He went for a lurker 'contain' without the troops to really do it, counting on his shorter supply route and control to save the day for him. It didn't. Risky strat, but if Stork had timed the attack for 2 minutes later he would have been streamrolled.
Umm, I like Violetak because it has all my favorite commentators. I would recommened Cholera, Diggity, Moletrap, Klazart and Rise. They are all unique in certain ways.
Most 'Tos seem to have given up on storms going for high econ builds. Stork is bucking this trend. His HT storms can make up for losing Observers to a small extent.
The other thing is, Stork went goons both games instead of zealots - this is a good strategy choice by protoss we're starting to see more of. Generally the opinion is that speedzealots > goons when it comes to hydras, but given that goons aren't that bad against hydra and lurkers >>> zealots, opting for goons is a much better choice.
yep, it was a great timing attack plus, as the commentators mentioned, the lack of scourge to snipe the obs. Throw in some top storming by stork and that's gg.
Love his play and as for Jaedong.... Weird tech/econ build, that window of time it created was perfect for stork beecause he didn't focus on another expo and got troops rather
lol at the probe scaring off the zerglings !!

actually Jaedong hasn't been even mining from his 4th base, so it was 2p vs. 3z bases, which is quite balanced in the early-middle game.
