Jinro was never insanely good, he just rode the macro terran wave, which he was one of the first to master. His attitude has slowly been improving over the last year(imo at least) so that won't hold him back forever. He clearly want to win.(Trimaster smash video) Also, Idra has great potential to improve, and is one of the most talented players from NA(see BW career) Besides, maybe he answered to the guy that posted about B teamer in the first place? Edit: Idra vs Softball on Nasl EU broadcast for those who didn't catch it live. | ||

He beat IdrA 3-1 in GSL then 4-2 in Clash of the Titans. He got further than Idra in every GSL. He won an MLG that IdrA was in. Jinro may not have been "insanely good", but idra has never even been close to "insanely good" in that case | ||

He was one of the first to use it, and so people did not have an answer. At that time, Idra had both better, mechanics and unit control. Jinro was by no means bad, he was really really good. I was still very new to the game then, so I might remember it wrong, but that's how I saw it. Yay for Idra vs Softball :D Edit: I forgot, you did see the maps for th GSL games, or are you just saying things out of your ass? | ||

Jinro may not have been "insanely good", but idra has never even been close to "insanely good" in that case That's a pretty unfair comparison. In the GSL, Jinro had a ridiculous map advantage that he was clearly aware of and even said in interviews that he knew the map was busted for Zerg. As for Clash of the Titans, yes Jinro won that series, but it doesn't award someone the title of the better player. Idra consistently improved every GSL he played in, Jinro has not. Idra also won an MLG. They're both great players, and this game is far to young to start deciding who's better and who's not. With every patch change we see players fall of the face of the planet, and I've noticed Idra much more than Jinro lately. | ||

He did ok for awhile because he plays stupidly greedy (rush 75drones no units). Now that people realizes it, they all in like half their games vs IdrA with great success because he always cuts corners. Kind of like with jinro and macro terran, people adapt. And now they're both about the same skill lvl losing everything they enter. B-teamers overall. And jinro doesn't ragequit every ladder loss and blames imbalance/coinflip/retards so I think he has greater chances of becomming good again. Since I am immature, I must have last word :3 Jinro have been bad for a longer time than Idra, and right now, I would put my money on Idra being the better player :3 Besides, if you give Idra some time, he will usually admit his mistakes(Sometimes atleast) I dunno what's wrong with Jinro though, he's been playing with some of the best Koreans for months, and he still hasn't come out of his slump. One of my fav terrans for sure, just behind Demu and MvP ^^ | ||

Being a fan of one player does not require you to degrade another player trying to make him look better. Trying to point out that somehow Jinro is bad does not make Idra look better. Stop being so disrespectful to other fans just because you dont agree with them. | ||

Moreover, idra i think has really cleaned up his act, and i feel like he contributes a lot to the SC2 community, with frequent appearences in interviews, state of the game, as well as inside the game obviously. He is a very good player, and i am waiting for him to do really well in a tournament one of these days. Less hate in a fan club guys. | ||

Well, that guy came into the fanclub and called them both B teamers though. Iwas not disrespectful. he had an advantage in maps, and a relatively new style. They were both pretty good at the time, but I think Idra had better mechanics and unit control. As I said, Jinro was really good, if not he wouldnt have been in Code S. If you look closely, I called Jinro good there | ||

IdrA's ZvT, though maybe not amazing, is still arguably better than his ZvP. Maybe he'd have advanced further if he got some terrans to play? I think he would have had a good chance against Naniwa and Rain. | ||

One of my fav terrans for sure, just behind Demu and MvP ^^ I don't think it's fair to say "Jinro has been bad for a longer time" when Jinro are only fighting koreans. Jinro is doing badly vs Koreans while idra is losing to most foreigners he bumps into in the MLGs. Once again, i think we can just agree to disagree? You think idras army control etc is better than jinros somehow and I'll accept that even tho i couldn't disagree more. Jinro's splitting is MKP level and I don't think I've ever seen somebody with worse infestor control than IdrA (which isn't meant to offend him. He's definetly top5 foreign zergs and I always root for him together with all foreigners in tournaments so im definetly no hater, I like idra) | ||

The times he has been playing foreigners(MLG etc) he hasn't been doing good against foreigners either. I havent followed Jinro recently, so I dunno :/ | ||

Hope Grack does better soon. DRG struggled hard to beat Hero in mlg, there's no shame in such a defeat, i hope DRG will crush thorzain now. | ||
