A 6-pool and a double bunker rush, sigh. That was an abysmal series. Both of these players should be better than that.
Both players have already explained themselves.
- Idra didn't like his chances of a long game on JB, so he planned to do a 6-pool before the first game
- Jinro said the following in his fanclub thread

Btw, I can tell you that if IdrA hadnt gotten bunkered on Metal I WOULD have cheesed the fuckign shit out of him and I dont care what anyone thinks about it, because on 2/3 positions on that map, I think cheese is the best option for terran to win. Just like what IdrA thought on Jungle Basin, which is a fucking impossible map for zerg in a normal game.
Anyway, congrats to Jinro for the win.

No matter who wouldv'e won i wouldve been happy, but great victory Jinro! goodluck!
|
Man, Jinro is so media trained. Such an all around champ.
|
i feel sad for idra but happy for jinro, anyways. swedish powerhouse again up. gl jinro you can make it!
|
God that is the most epic picture... arguably the best foreigners in the world facing off. GOD nerd chills. Good job Jinro, good job IdrA!
|
If a Zerg doesn't want to get bunker rushed, they shouldn't make it so damn easy to bunker rush them - i.e. patrol your fucking ramp! I played all my practice games under the assumption that Idra would drone patrol. Then when I scout no drone patrol and the second scv is hidden, sometimes you just gotta go.
Taht's real talk right thar'. Jinro is the Man.

gj Jinro TL fighting! gl in your next match.
|
Omg Congrats! Jinro hwaiting!!! Time for you to win it all ^^
|
I was really hoping for IdrA to win, I think he really deserved it, you know? But I guess that doesn't mean Jinro doesn't either, I guess I'll be rooting for him (and if he's out, MKP). :D
|
Funny how the only macro game went to Idra, heh.
eh well no respect to Jinro i guess. Way to bunker rush and defend a 6 pool!
(But in all seriousness congratulations to Jinro)
|
JINRO FIGHTING!!!!
You can do it, not just win the next round, but win the whole thing!!! I believe in you!!!!!!
|
I only have one questiion for Jinro. "How does it feel to always be buying ogs/TLAF house pizza?"
Because obviously you keep winning! Good Luck Jinro!
|
its simple, most of the gsl maps favor Terran = Zerg loss.
|
congrats to jinro and cheers to idrA i used to hate idra for being BM but i realise that sc2 is his work and and someone gets mads when something on his work is not fair

Awesome series. Love these post-match interviews. Thanks Lovedrop + Jinro!
|
I love how we were worried about them being stuck in the same group in the start of the tourney.
& they got this far.
such amazing players.
|
Very nice recap! I'm actually really interested in what Idra has to say about these games too, wouldn't mind an interview with him.

Lol, what the hell? Isn't that in complete opposition to what he said in Artosis' interview?

Hmm not the greatest games in history, but you can't blame the players, obviously both of these guys have been involved in plenty of epic matches before. Just goes to show the current state of the maps/race balance that two very macro-oriented players have come to the conclusion after thousands of practice games that 'cheese' is their best option in many circumstances.
Anyways I don't mind so much. Just makes you appreciate the super epic matches more =p
Good luck next round Jinro! And looking forward to seeing Idra next time!
