Haha, I love that people crapped a brick over Rain's early game pressure, trash talking him so much, voting down the games in the recommendations, but when MC does it everyone says it is awesome and great strategies and recommends the games. This place is full of blind, whiny fanboys. Ridiculous.
At least we can fanboy together for Jinro.
TvZ pressure plays, for whatever reason, tend to be more vilified here than the same in PvT. Also Teamliquid is home to a huge base of oGs-TL fans.

MC didn't go allin in every game, and played a good macro game. He showed that he has skill and can win a game that goes passed the 10 min mark. So, im sorry but you clearly can't tell the difference between skill and abuse.

Pressure into macro continuation feels more impressive. It looks like a player in control of the situation and has read the flow of the game to a deeper degree. All-ins on the other hand look like they are acts of desperations or luck or lack of basic scouting and that sort of play looks less solid.

Jinro has this in the bag.
In the bag.

Probably because Protoss is the least represented race in the GSL while TvZ is the dominant matchup, and we've had these TvZ "pressure plays" almost every single TvZ match (sometimes every game of some matches). Or it might be because MC has shown he is a lategame macro champion while Rain runs out of steam fairly quickly and starts falling apart at the midgame. Or it could be because MC's early strats are a bit more creative while Rain employs the same SCV all-in 3 times in one match.
Or.. nah, it's fanboyism.

I'm so very happy for Jinro!
I think all have been said already in the thread but the hero reaper, dragoon range failure made my day.
FA gogo, TL gogo!

Jinro is my hero. Sooo good :D

Jinro. 
He should be a hero choice in Warcraft 4.

At least we can fanboy together for Jinro. Bias will always be here to stay. Everyone does it. Yeah, but I like to think that people would notice something this blatant this close. :.(. I will say that Marine King made so many terrible decisions. It is very obvious now that the guy has been beating people just by being better than they are. Unfortunately, when you get in positions that are that bad, it doesn't matter how good you are. MC just outsmarted the guy: he knew exactly what to do. It was pretty cool.
I think people are kinda tired of cheesy Terran wins in the GSL.
Davit vs Genius
Hyperdub vs TLO (game 3)
BitByBit vs Haypro
Season 2 finals
It's just too much...

after 2:2 i thought choya got this. But then he made this epic thermal lance failure and my heart was just pumping allt he time. Love those Gom-Vods

Artosis anticipating Choya's response when he realizes that he forgot to research thermal lance. Also mimicking the sound of a pterodactyl.

I'm really hoping for Jinro vs HongUn in the finals. :D

Quoting for truthiness. Also watching jinro is damn fun. Hope he makes it to the finals.

We almost cant lose this GSL3
Best case scenario:
Jinro Wins:
Awesome, not only a foreigner but a Liquid guy wins, perfect
One of the Protoss wins:
Awesome, Toss hasent had as much success at GSL at least as the other 2.
Rain wins:
Meh =P
