Well everything's dependent on the maps with the new system. I think he'll probably make it to the semifinals vs either MC or Julyzerg, vs July would be completely based on the maps. Vs MC would be completely based on MC's nerves.


That is exactly what I think and even thought I´m zerg player - JMC a Jinro FIGHTING!!!
Also I really like that MC seems to be very friendly to foreigners...

Great interviews! Jinro's game against Moon was exciting to watch, although Moon definitely made some mistakes, especially in the bling micro department. Was a shame to see Idra go but MVP is a very talented player, so it's not as if he lost to someone he was expected to beat.

i wonder how the koreans would have reacted to the immense amounts of bm nony and idra were throwing at each other before their TSL ro8 match....

but ok, its a different culture which values manners much more than ours does... but tbh i can somehow understand the hate he gets. did he really just say the following?

No, the Korean players have always recognized that I'm one of the best and most of them don't like me very much.


did he just say this after being knocked out in the ro32 for the second time in 3 gsls? he has not reached ro8 once in 3 tries, and still considers himself one of the best?

i dont wanna say that he is not, but the facts are barely backing up his claims, so it just feels akward and a little arrogant to me. same thing last gsl. after his ro32 win, he said something along the lines of "if i dont run into cool too early, i think i got a good chance to take the whole tournament", just to get completely outclassed in the next round by zenio, who in the following round got completely outclassed himself.

its not just his bm, its his general attitude which gets him so much hate. and although i dont share this hate, i can still understand why others feel about him like they do.



jinro is like the total opposite: he was not achieving anything at all prior to mlg dallas, but in the last months he has really improved a ton by really hard work and dedication. he is not thinking too much about winning it all or his own ego, he is into improving his play step by step. and its paying off, although he probably does not have the most raw talent of all foreigners... (that would be either ret or nony )

it is hard for me to put it into words, but there is just some subtle difference between the 2 of them that makes jinro thaaaat much more likeable than idra. and i think he is a better role-model for us average gamers, teaching us to never give up practicing and improving. jinro has made me a fan and i wish him the best of luck to clinch code S. but i also wish idra the best of luck in the upcoming "real" gsl.

Yeah I agree black gun. I see some people claim that idras BM is what has him the fans he does. However if he had say... Huks demeanor (and I hear that ogs loves him as well as other people). He would have double the fans. Though idrA does have some Korean fans. I mean look at TLO. He had tons of fans(even boxer!!!)
I asked my friend how the ratio at a party was, he replied. "Let's just say for every guy there was two dudes."

Grats to Jinro very well played, very nice preparation hope he can make it to the finals. Also i'm very glad to see Idra is acting like an grown up person. Keep it up.

Ggoma shout out! I feel like Ggoma can follow the Jinro road to success!

The EG house stuff is very exciting.

Been watching all the GSLs and they were the reason for me finally getting around to getting starcraft 2. Anyway just signed up to congratulate Jinro! He played absolutely amazing and a shame about IdrA, but I don't like Zergs all that much apart from Fruitdealer anyway

thanks for this, allready enjoyed the Ret coverage. looking forward for more.
the maps for IdrA were really the downside, he has the skills to go really far in the GSL 2011, glad he achieved S-Class.
Jinro fighting, go for S-Class!

I just want to say, that talent is so many things, not some inbuilt mechanism making you better at starcraft. Ret is just the same as Jinro, they both work very hard and are both getting very good results. The only "talent" that Ret has over Jinro, is his emotional state when playing. Ret seems to not get nervous, but Jinro can. Ret seems extremely focused on the game, while Jinro can after winning a match start thinking about answering the question for the winner.
Ret needs to put just as much effort into sc2 as Jinro.

Like second best matchup or something?

I wonder if the koreans will translate these interviews and discuss it on their forums.

I think Jinro is my favourite player after this GSL. His playstyle is just so good + his attitude.
