EPTI am sure Jinro will get his chance in the future as he is an excellent player.
For now I am really looking forward to seeing if MC can do it again in the finals or whether it was his direct familiarity with Jinro's play that led to his dominance...

+ Show Spoiler + B for Jinro and Nestea? They both lost due to poor openings from what I observed and Nestea in particular didn't do anything to adjust his opening to counter it. Surely that is C- level play at the most. | ||

+ Show Spoiler + Just to mention a few, the sim city defense of HongUn is one of the most tense moment in gsl, he should be given much more credit for his fast reaction and iron nerve to defend that push Game 5 of Nestea v Rain is definitely worth more than 1* when Rain executed his bunkerush very well, yet still played safely and expanded. Though almost crumble, Nestea still held on and almost successfully countered with better decision, fans were given some glimpse of hope & some heartattack. I love that as a spectator And how come Jinro earned a B for being demolished in less than 10 mins each game, while MK only got C+ after playing some epic games ? I dont care about how theyr teammate and MC being the superior, whoever played that bad should be given D+ at best. This is one the worst series in this gsl imo Anyway I dont see any game rating for that series, must have been 4x zero stars since the OP is so hard to please. | ||

I'm confused with the ratings given. It makes no sense. Would probably be better off reading comments off GOMTV.net and decide which games to watch. | ||

IMNestea gets a B but TSL_Rain gets a C-? You do know who won the series, right? And against MC you gave Foxer a C+, where the games were at times quite close, and Jinro a B? Futhermore, you then justify the 'B' by saying that MC played well. Newsflash, MC's play is reflected by his own rating. Puh-leese. I'd rather you just forgo the ratings if they're going to be so nonsensical, and thus detract from your analysis. The ratings are supposed to reflect a player's standard during one match, not their 'overall strength'. Even in the Fruitdealer vs HongUn series you rated the games as being worthless to watch, essentially, when most people found the frantic defence a pleasure to view. | ||

Thanks for putting your time and effort into it I guess. edit- Also, how did the FD vs HongUn Lost Temple game 4 only get 1 star? based on the rating system... 4 stars - Excellent play demonstrated by at least one of the players, and very likely both. A must watch. 3 stars - A good game, but nothing truly special. Often not competitive, or with some mistakes. Worth watching if you have the time. 2 stars - A below-average game. Not worth watching unless you're a fan of the winning player. 1 star - Not an entertaining or instructive game. Even if you're a fan of the winner, your time is probably better spent. This was an exciting game which demonstrated great play by hongun being able to macro buildings so well. I was at the edge of my seat and I know I wasn't the only one. | ||

Even the last game, but Jinro managed to get that into a basetrade match... And bringing up his rating based on that his opponent was of much higher caliber just seems wrong. But that's just another mans opinion! + Show Spoiler + If you take other factions in your calculations then the gametime elapsed you'll see that he played very solid up till the moment he lost to perfect timing push's. Doing exellent moves and Jinro's builds were executed flawlessly, just that they got hardcountered most of the time before he could reap.(He played B- imo but come'n it's not like the they gave him a A+) | ||

The Fruit vs Hongun games are similar. Fruit outplayed himself more than Hongun did anything. Then MC vs Jinro was such a short affair so really any rating for Jinro is going to be hard and there will be bias since there's not much to say on the matter. MC played amazing and Jinro was just a step behind. Is being a step behind amazing horrible or is it good? | ||

And it's stupid to give a player a higher rating based on that his opponent was completely dominating him. A gold player playing against a diamond player doesn't play better simply because his opponent is leagues above him. (not saying Jinro is gold level, just making a anology!). | ||

Small typo in the score between Rain and HongUn though. It was 4-2 not 4-1. | ||
