[@bradwulf5126]

Man I remember playing this game when I was 14 on a 28.8 dial up modem and when brood war came out and was brand new. I already had Starcraft but brood war was such a necessary addition to it. They had to nerf zerg larvae rates because it was op. They had to make spawning pools cost more. They had to make dragoon’s range upgrade take them to 6. They were a meme before that. Scouts were awesome and usually making 36 of them in an FFA was the way to win. Lost Temple and Hunters were the best maps. When they nerfed scouts ground attack cool down I was so pissed. They also had to make carriers not suck but I can’t remember what they did. Such a good time

[@pmcccar]

[@Artas1984]

Weird meta. Jeadong played a composition as if he was facing a terran.

[@windowslogo3577]

You're wrong.

[@KnOOspa]

overall a bad composition i agree. but what else do you want to play if you avoid making a transition to hydras for the whole game? actually he forced himself avoiding that tech tree by pumping alooot of terrors in the early phase... however he should have made a (at least temporary) transition to hydras later. Perfectmans composition of reavers/zels/dts and many archs >> ultras/ling/swarm. switching to plague only and mixin in hydras could have been more effective at some moments. u just cant avoid a whole tech tree as a zerg in such a long ZvP. zergs advantages are actually the quick transitions which adapt to a protoss blob! not the other way around.

[@VladTchompalov]

That shuttle/reaver control tipped the scales in every late-game engagement

[@naturalharmoniagropius3262]

I love how red Protoss look. They look like Chinese lucky charms

[@Xalendare15]

FYI, even if you're playing the old and new clients on the same machine, the old one would forcibly change your display resolution when it started up, whereas the new client (attempts) to keep it to your native resolution, which is why everything looks "downscaled". Try running the old vs. new clients in windowed mode, and you'll see how much smaller the resolution used to be.

[@tonyg6968]

💢freaking excellent protoss playing from perfect man with the reaver drops and pick ups with the DT under the dark swarm partner with archons! Best protoss playing I’ve seen from tons of matches you posted Paladin! Damn great replay!!

[@FalconPaladin]

Glad you enjoyed it! :) I need to cast some more PerfectMan games for sure.

[@tonyg6968]

Definitely! I’ve probably watched about hmmm 26 videos now of yours and those only other great Protoss player I’ve seen is bijou (or however you spell it) but I’ve also watched some of his professional semi final and final battles against players like Jaedong. Bijou is amazing but man.. perfect man has some serious skills and some great micro going on. At first in the beginning I figured meh.. this guy doesn’t know what he’s doing. Cmon he’s playing a legend Zerg player like Jaedong! And boom! Greatness comes out from Perfect man. Good patience and control. Exactly how a Protoss player needs to be. Not reckless

Nice voice. Hello from Ukraine, Kiev. You are a really good commentator. I am a big fan of Jaedong since he was EG player, those zerg rush in quater-semi and final games against protos was purely amazing, I would remember those mathces forever) Sadly that Jaedong left championship. I think it's because of low popularity of starcraft (look at Lol or Dota2), so commercialy if the game is not popular salary less then league of legends pro players(

[@arforafro5523]

Really tough to try and beat an army like perfectman's with just defiler, ultras and lings, I feel like Jaedong got cocky with his economy lead and tried to force a win by zerging down perfectman, later on once perfect man had enough archons it was pretty hard for him to win fights. What could Jaedong do at that point?, would queens help as support units with ensnare or broodling for HT's?, dark swarm was close to useless those last fights.

So many archons. So much melee and splash damage. I would love to see more plague on enemy bases in situations like this. Seems like there’s no great answer to fighting the Protoss army. Maybe kill his economy instead?

[@ZC.Andrew]

@@TheSaxRunner05 True for other units, but Ultras are big enough that little splash is dealt, effectively making them a counter to Archons within Dark Swarm. Obviously, this was still not a great strategy though, due to the other aforementioned units - especially Reavers.

[@bradwulf5126]

It has seemed like Jae dong has had like 12 Zerglings and 6 mutas all game and somehow has kept himself alive against a huge Protoss death ball

[@blazewarTV]

He needed Hydras vs the archons

[@ChernobylPizza]

I find this game to be so fun to watch but the only problem is I'm absolutely terrible when I try to play myself

[@cocomunga]

Do Protoss players ever use shield batteries? I’ve never seen them used. I guess it could be good in some kind of strange Archon defense barrier. Also, Reavers are so terrifying to fight against. I feel like a surprise Guardian push would have really help Jaedong. The reavers were crushing him. Guardians take very little damage from Corsairs if you have armor upgrades, and the Corsairs have no attack upgrades. Ultralisks seemed like a poor choice. Zealots and Archons are so beefy, and DT cut anything to pieces melee wise.

[@heanng1510]

3:21 doesn’t seem like Jaedong would just leave a drone not mining minerals at the bottom of the mineral field

As artosis once said-

[@ganqqwerty]

first time I see the Jaedong being choked like this

[@aoeu256]

Jaedong should have gone lurkers especially on his ramps as they have more dps. Maybe he could have had a queen ensnare the archons going up the ramp or mutas after he had destroyed nearly all of the corsairs.

[@amirjaminov9353]

"Drones said no, and lings respect that")))

[@Anuwabu]

Explain something to me. Those topside ramps never existed back in the day, they're a new piece to better balance maps unfairly favoring cliff positions from one side. Probably from remastered? Or are they from third party map editors? Cause if they're from remastered... who in the hell looked at the terrain tiles on those and said "yeah looks great we'll call that finished" rather than telling them make it again?

Dark Swarm does not affect melee units: example (zealots, reaver scarabs, dark templar, probes, firebats, 'lings, ultras, etc.) Archon attacks are mitigated but splash damage still deals damage. Same is true of siege tank fire. That's why Perfectman stopped making Dragoons.

I've noticed that every game you've casted from a year ago is zoomed in way too much. When did you start to zoom out? It's hard to watch the casts that are too far zoomed in.

[@FalconPaladin]

Well, in the original BW client, you couldn't zoom out at all, and that's what I used when first started casing BW. I guess that's why. :)

[@frothfrenzy]

10:05 Hearthstone, huh? Still playing? In any case, this was a great cast of a great game. Over the last two months I've watched almost all of your Brood War casts, including the old ones, and the change in quality is really evident. Just a minor issue - I feel you should be checking the player bases more often in the early to mid game, just so we get the idea what build they're going for. Other than that, you're making awesome casts. Cheers!

[@FalconPaladin]

Bingo, Hearthstone. :) And yeah I play enough to do my daily quests most days. And I'll see what I can do about checking bases more often early. Thanks!

[@frothfrenzy]

No problem! Also, you might want to take a look at Faeria if you find the time. It's a game similar to Hearthstone but features a tactical board where you summon your stuff. They transitioned to a premium model recently but there is very little grinding involved. TotalBiscuit, while he was still with us, made a very positive review of the game on KZbin when it was released. Definitely worth checking out.

The hydra/lurker could do some damage to the archons/zealots to support the melee units.

It doesn't last long enough and requires an additional upgrade at the fleet beacon.

[@JohnDobak]

@@FalconPaladin Yes upgrades are expensive. But really by this point in the game a Protoss couldnt find 200/200 for the upgrade? Even adding in the 300/200 for the fleet beacon by this stage of the game he could have. Look at the money he's floating and how ahead in supply he was. It give you 15 seconds to either position your army on top of sunkens (zealots, dt's) and the rest of your ranged army to do tons of damage. 1-2 disruption webs knock out basically all the static defense. Given that he had 8 corsairs he could have knocked out static defense and incoming enemies at the ramp for like 40 seconds. More than enough time to take out that base that was threatened at the 12:30 mark. You can also use it to disable spore colonies and rip into that overloard clump most zergs make. Disruption web is not useless because it only lasts 1/3 the time Dark Swarm does. It buys you time to set up for a fight vs static defense and can disable large clumps of enemy units forcing them to disengage.
