The guy who said that MC threw the game by making phoenix and carriers probably meant that he made mistakes that led him to lose the game and not literally threwing the game intentionally. That is also throwing away the game.
And to be fair to MC, in the last GSL , Jinro expected to lose fully and thus he was more prepared for when MC came into his booth and hugged him. This time it is truly an upset so don't blame MC too much. I'm sure they will hug back in the house.
That said, WOOO JINRO. I know IdrA hoped for this match instead of MC and this will be an interesting foreigner vs foreigner RO8.

GSL needs to change the Code S bullshit, what's with a best of one? seriously a best of one in the biggest tournament for SC2? a simple build order loss will result in a loss for you which results in a lot of players advancing who shouldn't be.
The skill level involved in that game is extraordinary. I honestly believe Jinro is the best T in the world now, hands down. I don't think he can be beaten. Jinro v IdrA will be frightening to see that skill unleashed.
It's so sad that 2 foreigners have to duke it out, but oh well. Such a gg!! :D

He probably regrets letting Jinro win the first time. Nice guys finish last.
It's finally starting to pay off for the players who have actually been practicing this game instead of doing all-ins every game... Oh and no, im not talking about jinro vs mc but rather that jinro and idra are getting really far into this tournament becuase they are GREAT players and now that the early rushes is being figured out better and better their superior mid and late-game can really carry them thru! It's awesome to see!
