I love jinro, but i wish that TL would cut out the Bias in these official reviews, sure i dont mind people saying "OMG JINRO !!!" in the tourney thread, but giving a 5.0 for the MC game on scrap is a bit much.

Anyways, thanks for the great recap :D

EDIT: Jinro V IdrA xel'naga, where idra played a great macro game 3.5
Jungle basin, where IdrA 6pooled and Jinro admits he won because he accidently canceld his marine 4.0

Eh..

Otherwise, love the work


beating the current GSL champion with MECH isn't worth 5 stars :O?

i couldn't disagree more, unless 5 stars are for legendary games(that will be remembered 10 years from now) i think it deserves it


" 5.0 - P1 played well, but P2 played amazing. Watch this game!"

Jinro did play amazing but MC didn't play good at all. I mean, considering he is MC

I've started to ignore the ratings because they are so biased

4.0 for a defended six pool? Would have been a 0.0 for a successful six pool

G4 4.0 - LiquidJinro > EGIdrA - + Show Spoiler [Recap]

??? When somebody 6 pools, you usually give it a 1.

This rating is kinda bias for Jinro's and the fact that it is Idra cheesing. However, this does not deserve a 4.0 rating at all. It was a disappointing game, and Jinro won not because of luck because he accidentally canceled the marine and had to rebuild it, messing with Idra's mind because the marine didn't pop out when it should've and when his zerglings were there.

Nice. I really disagree with a lot of the ratings; 5.0 for Jinro vs MC when MC basically threw the game with carriers?

Well I found the 6-pool game of Jinro vs IdrA the most entertaining game of them all, I watched all the vods so far. It has drama, excitement, unexpected developments, game-changing moments, I loved it: definately a 4.0.

If Jinro just walled in or if Idra just killed him we'd have given it a 1. But the circumstances surrounding the game, the dramatics of it, the 5 hp marine barely escaping, the accidental cancel, the map / stakes, these all contributed to the rating.

I think the MKP vs Nada games were amazing should be rated higher. I know that Nada didn't play amazing even after having the lead but the games were so intense especially at the end when they were just floating around their bases. First time to see that in the GSL and for it to happen in both games was really fun to see.

Don't see many base trades happening in a normal game you'd probably see some bring their army back to defend the attack but MKP just looped around and did a counter-attack. Really entertaining games to watch.

exactly this. it isnt just a six-pool, it's IDRA doing a 6pool in a map favored for terran when hes down 2-1 in a best of 5, then the dramatic way in which jinro (even though he didnt wall off) defended against it.

A bit biased in some of the reviews, but understandable. We're pretty much all biased for foreigners winning.

Nice write up but there's some definite bias going on with those Jinro ratings.

Agree I feel like MC got raped by maps (Scraps and LT) and positions hard (Close position LT) and his own play rather than jinro playing amazing.
