I won't lie, I was very disappointed in this matchup. It seemed to me that staying up at 3:00 am was not worth seeing terran or zerg cheese. Honestly if i wanted to see how a person would cheese, I could just go ladder. I'm hoping for a more macro game rather than all-in's all the time.
There was only 1 all in the whole series (jungle basin 6 pool by Idra). 1st game wasn't an all in, 2nd game wasn't an all in (he just got 2 bunkers up thats idra's fault for not patrolling a drone), third game Idra just failed to defend almost had it defended then lost a few too many units.
But I do hope if they ever play in a bo3/5 again that their better games

Congrats to jinro, though I do feel Idra sort of defeated himself. Such a quick gg influences your performance in the following matches as well. Fun series to watch, and Jinro fightingu!
Yes it does. And he's mentioned it in interviews before: playing a game that he believes he has lost puts him more on tilt for the next games than just quitting, getting over it, and trying to keep the right momentum.
He essentially spares himself 5-20 minutes of psychological torture. Staying in a game that you cannot win for 5-20 minutes is 5-20 minutes of demoralization.
This kind of psychology isn't true for every player, but i can certainly understand how it could be so for some.

6 pool 6 drone is a very good strat on JB I would think, the only losses I really recall on ZvT for Terran was when Terran cheesed by 2 raxing or something (with the exception of a couple mistakes like Jinro/Check and just poor play like with Gon/IdrA oddly enough). At Jinro's level of play, JB is probably going to be a free win for him.

what's up with the coat man

Jinro's the man! And is it me or did IdrA resort to a strategy that he himself relentlessly mocks?
IdrA hates cheese, but he will do it to throw people off from their game, since people never expect him to cheese. This isn't the first time that he 6 pooled either. He has done it a few occasional times on the ladder. The most recent one I can remember was when he six pooled HuK on the ladder on his stream.

I want jinro in the final so we can see his proud mum :D
|
I sense more great pics coming to the SFW thread. Gratz Jinro.
|
I wonder if Jinro (terran) was not able to salvage bunkers would that of made a difference in game 2 or 4?

Seems that Tasteless was a lot more into SC back then than he is now. Just based on his style of commentary he seemed to know more about the game back then.

hot damn that's a flashy jacket he just had to 1-up idra
|
Jinro has been under appreciated for so long now he is the best foreigner for sure GRATS GRATS

Oops, in the midst of my whining I forgot to congratulate you jonathan, you deserve it more than anyone  ^^

Congrats to Jinro. Although blaming a loss (game 1) on anything other than the fact that your opponent just played better than you that game, and not admitting that you just need to figure it out and play better, is highly unprofessional.
|
Jinro's style is largely what motivates me as a T player, so happy he keeps winning and being an example of sticking with it. movin on up!
|
GJ Jinro, hope you win it!
|
A 6-pool and a double bunker rush, sigh. That was an abysmal series. Both of these players should be better than that.

Nice job Jinro!
It must be cold in those booths, hand warmers and big jackets

Congrats to Jinro for showing everyone that he's the best foreigner Terran in the world.
Very disappointing series overall, though.
Game 1 was the only mildly interesting one, and it was pretty standard at that.
Game 2... well pros cut corners all the time in tournaments to gain a small advantage, IdrA didn't patrol and missed the second SCV and that was it.
Game 3 was just a good timing push and the game was over, nothing interesting in that game.
Game 4 was on a ridiculous ZvT map. I wish IdrA would have taken it so that we could have at least had a chance for an entertaining game.

So sad i missed these games, so happy for Jinro, hope he wins, he deffinitely can! =D
