I can already spot lots of bangwagoners saying that Jinro is overrated. Those have no knowledge at all about the current state of the game. Jinro has always said that MC is INSANELY good, and that maybe played some tricks in his mind. Maybe he felt he was the inferior player and never played as well as he can. I didn't watch the games today. Unfortunately I missed them. But even if Jinro played like shit, it doesn't take anything away from his amazing run and I doesn't crack even a little the aura of great player that surrounds him.

So sad that Jinro is out :-/

But a great job coming so far, way to go!
There's a fine line between bravery and stupidity.

Due to some personal issues, i did not see many games prior to the RO4, but heard a lot of positive stuff about Jinro, how good he is and how solid he plays. Quite frankly, i did not see any of that today, there was not one moment throughout the 4sets where Jinro looked to have even the slightest edge. I hate when people tend to over-inflate value.



LOL, because MC is in a whole different level.. you'll see that when he rapes rain.. check out jinro's others game and we are not over-inflating his skill level..


Jinro does lack a lot in the early game play. Plenty of time to get better but for now he is just not that great strategically or showing any kind of flexibility. Not seen Rain play late game yet but am assuming he is the same just being good early game and lacking late game, along with lack of strategy skills.

Jinro should have never beat choya. Most of you guys praise his play but don't realize he got freebies for game 1 (all in) and 2 (viking cheese imba im middle map despite being outmacro'ed). Game 5 choya didn't have thermal lance and still almost won, hah.

Skill wise/micro wise/macro wise? could not be seen, none of the games involved it besides force fields, but that is standard for good protoss

Build orders, mind games, and out-thinking? MC owned jinro

im just amazed at Mc's timing attacks
This shows 100% Korean style sc2
Jinro shoulda know that since Mc is in the same house so i don't understand the fast FE or fast factory

While this nonsense doesn't merit a serious reply, I'd still like to note Choya was waaaay behind in the final game with or without the lance and didn't come anywhere near to winning.

All of a sudden Marineking doesnt look so bad. He shoudl have taken the first in his series with MC.

This game doesnt reward passivity (is that even a word?) on the main, going out and hoping to passively macro up is obviously not what blizzard want. Aggression, reaction, game-sense is where sc2 is at.. applying pressure to expand, or reacting aggressively to passive expands etc etc.

Fast expanding SHOULD be punishable, it should deffinitely be seen as a high risk. MC's style of a good, solid pressuring early game most of the time, before transitioning into the mid/late game allows him to use reaction and gamesense more so than someone who is set on early expanding without seeing his opponents cards first.

Enjoyed the games even though my hero didnt win . MC scouted and reacted amazingly. Do people really think that MC would have gone for all of those same strats if he had scouted vastly different T openings?

Viking cheese lol?
Is there any unit / strategy in the game that hasn't been called cheese so far?

This.

Its ridiculous, sc2 is beautifully balanced (compared to where i came from (WoW LOL)). Jinro outplayed Choya and to be honest should have taken their 3rd (or was it 4th?) on Delta Quad, he had a commanding position but engaged too early and in a bad position.

Game 5 had little to do with choya not having thermal lance. Jinro had already got a lead by swiftly taking advantage of choya not having a robo or forge up, by going cloak banshees and killing about 69 million probes.

Can you guys imagine if Fruiterdealer or Nestea advanced to the finals like they should have? We would actually have a final worth watching.


i was kind of disappointed seeing that July and MC faced each other so early.

Would have been great if either July, fruit, or Nestea where going through and MC was in the final against one of them, one of the most exciting games for me was still july vs mc want that kind of PvZ in finals... don't want to see PvT, it's all over after one huge engagement.,

So, is Jinro better than Idra then ? He sure did go a lot farther than Idra ever has.
