I do think it's a shame the way the brackets are set up. The ro32 bracket players shouldn't be able to run into eachother at ro8, they should have just split it up imo so that idra and jinro couldn't meet again.
Anyway it's great to have a foreigner in ro4 for sure, personally i'd prefer idra to make it as i give him a higher chance of going all the way but either way it's fun. I do think the other side of the bracket has way better players though with nestea, trickster and mvp.

Yeah, in football cups and basically in most other sport competitions teams that met each other in the group stage can not meet each other again until the finals.
Off-season = best season

I hope it's a close and tense game so it's fun as hell to watch. A foreigner is going to win, so I win regardless of the results.


A foreigner is going to lose, so ya, we win, but we also lose.

jinro vs idra part 2 is gonna be awesome but at the same time a bit disappointing. They played each other in the RO32, they really shouldnt have to play each other again until the semis or the grand final imo.
Hope GOM makes a better bracket system next season,


Dude your a clown. You make it out as jinro and idra are the top dogs?

You have Nestea, Marineking, Nada and MVP still in the tournament.

Jinro played two great games. He realised that fast expanding against MC = Dead.
Basically he has laid the blueprint on how to beat MC.


Dude, you're the clown.
First of all, he didn't say anything about Idra or Jinro being top dogs, that's just you hating so badly that you're seeing shit that doesn't exist

Secondly, saying "basically he has laid the blueprint on how to beat MC" - a bunch of bullshit. First off Nada beat MC 4-0 in the new year's tournament and he did it with the same technique 4 times. THAT is a blueprint on how to beat MC, who tried a different build order every game in response to it, but nothing worked.

And lastly, "he realized that fast expanding against MC = Dead." <-- Blanket statements like this not only are blatantly wrong, but obscure the fact that correct decision making and proper scouting form the backbone of a strong macro game


Right Nada got his ass whop when it counted you "clown".
You forgetting who beat Nada last??
Who care if Nada beat MC 4-0 in another tournament. As if MC really cares to play his best in any tournament except GSL.

MC timing attack ate Jinro for breakfast in GSL 3 and he learnt his lesson (don't FE).

I was most impressed by the use of 250mm Strike Cannons. They completely nullified MC's Immortals. Immortals being burned to death one by one was quite a scene to watch.

As a toss QQ, what could possibly counter that? Critical mass of thors + vikings seem like almost unbeatable combination except the obvious mobility issue with thors. I assume critical mass of carriers might do it but they are much harder to get.

Also, does 250mm cannon work against Ultralisks too?

Great games, Jinro. So proud of you. I rarely enjoy watching TvP but those games were a real treat.

JINRO!

Man, watching his play always makes me want to switch to Terran. The way that he always seems on top of what his opponent is doing while always going for an economical hammer in the end, he deserves to be known as the Gorilla Terran.

Really really happy for Jinro!! Amazing games, it's always such a pleasure to watch Jinro and MC play.

I'm just incredibly upset that because of the bracket setup the one trick pony MarineKing gets to move on and the best protoss in the tournament MC does not ...

Such a great style of play, far and away the most fun terran to watch and one that makes me want to play the race I dislike the most.

Jinro's games against MC had me cheering to a pc screen and doing a little happy dance in an empty room. What absolutely stellar play. Mr Jinro, you are the man. Well played, sir, well played.

I like his comment about being thrown when MK didn't do what he expected. I'm sure most of us have been there before. It can really throw your game a bit.

As Jinro walked into MC's booth for a few words, I was genuinely moved.
