Patrolling one extra drone is not a guaranteed loss at all, you make it out to be some sort of hugely game altering thing. terran can just start building the bunkers, drones get pulled off the line, the Z player loses all this mining time, and then the T can just cancel the bunkers. on top of that, the terran player can salvage the bunkers, suffering no loss at all (except the time invested in the push, but the zerg's expo is delayed and the zerg also loses mining time, and has to spend time fending off the push). also, i think it's kind of bs that Z players have to set a drone on patrol and lose that mining time, even if he doesnt know for sure the T player is going to build a bunker. the mechanics are just too forgiving for T imo. but nonetheless, gz to jinro. | ||

One drone patrolling the ramp stops everything you just described. Sometimes we just need to do stuff to make sure a strategy doesn't happen. It's like a terran complaining about magic box mutas countering the unit designed to handle them. We just have to deal with it. | ||

Eh, I'd say the problem was that IdrA ran into some awful maps / positions, coupled with some bad luck. Not that Jinro isn't a great player, but that isn't quite as relevant, seeing as how we are dealing with the RO8 of GSL Code S (where you expect every player to be a force to reckon with) Anyway, hope the matches against MKP end up entertaining! | ||

The linking to gomtv.com requires korean mastery to be usefull and the league standings doesnt even show the matching of the semis. thx. http://www.teamliquid.net/calendar/2011/1/#event_3567 If I'm not mistaken. | ||

If u want to be meticulous: building a wall in, will hurt the terrans economy. Would u say the game state is stupid for that reason?? seriously plz stop complaining | ||

Jinro looks like some kind of a nerd-eating badass, while Idra is Idra, man. Look at him. He is half man, half android and all supernerd. | ||
