Jinro, do you think that the one hellion that survived in the 2nd game vs MC and scouted the 4 gate so you could get your SCVs ready, was a huge factor in you holding that off and going on to defeat him ?

I noticed that MC did not use his sentries to block bunker repair in the first game vs jinro.

props to jinro for defeating such a difficult opponent who had every advantage.

Man, I have to say that this was one of the best days of GSL4 by far


G1:Absolutely SICK forcefields by MC........he never saw the 4 bunkers, went up and immediatly analyzed the best position to place down FFs and put them down in less than 2 SECONDS!!!! That was some of the best reaction timings I'vs saw.

G2:Sick and innovative push by Jinro, almost had MarineKing hard contained, yet MarineKing did a GENIUS move and dropped Jinro's main, cutting off the production facilities of Jinro, AND AT THE SAME TIME, completely crushing the rest of Jinro's army which was at his natural. A lot of people only see his drop play, yet fail to realize MarineKing was fighting (and winning) at two fronts at the same time.


G3:Good push and usage of phenix by MC, then Jinro manages to hold off a timing immortal sentry push (although a major reason was MC's lack of FFs). Then he went mech (which is a brilliant play considering their close positions), and siezed the gold base while also containing MC on two fronts. Mech is generally not good on large maps, but due to the close conditions, MC was not able to abuse the mobility of mech.


G4: This had to be one of the more dissapointing games of this series.....oh well, 1 all-in in 5 games is an acceptable ratio for me.

G5:Holds off 4 gate rush, then both transition into midgame with CARRIERS for MC and THORs for Jinro. Brilliant idea to get strike cannon for the Thors, and impeccable timing for a push. However, I think MC screwed up by letting that Banshee scout the starports.....if he had maybe two more minutes he would have stomped Jinro's army.



Anyways congrats to Jinro for advancing!!

Stop BITCHIN' about the carrier decision. That's what you do against Mech. Go watch EGAxslav vs Jinro. Blink stalkers/storm/carriers/chargelots. Jinro got destroyed even tho he was far ahead most of the game. Only problem is that you can't really go carrier off 2 base. Axslav basically double expanded when he scouted the mech build off jinro.

i tihnk 6 of the 8 can win all but Foxer and Choya.

I still don't get this! Foxer is a really good player. Sure, his macro isn't the best (but its not BitByBit terrible) but his micro and strategies are all really good. He's easily one of the best Terrans (and players, for that matter) in the world. He could easily take this whole thing. Even his TvT, which isn't standard at all, isn't bad. His bio play can easily crush a LOT of tank timings.

Awesome games but can't believe MCs didn't forcefield the bunkers in game 3 during the first attack.

He would have won easily if he had done that and that's like his signature...

i am a huge fan of marine king.
as a matter of a fact, i want him to win the GSL. he's my fav player... but i have to make this post to say CONGRATS to jinro.
extremely well played and i am so SO happy he crushed MC.

is it just me or MC wasn't really "kind" when jinro went to his booth to shake his hand ?
he didn't even turn -.-''

last time when he owned jinro 0-4... jinro has been extremely polite and nice. wtf
also that celebration thing against rainbow was fucking stupid.. i know toss players like him but i could never stand him and i am so happy he got knocked out.

really sad that the only 2 foreign players gotta meet again

also..

i have been reading that few nights ago MK beat all OGS, what you guys referring to ? what games were they ? where can i find em ? :<

p.s.
marineking haters are hilarious... and boring :p

Jinro, after you held off that 4 gate, my wife woke up and watched the rest of the match with me, due to the fact that I was screaming so loud in the middle of the night.

At one point, I screamed, "Shit, MC's going Carriers!!" My wife says: "Calm down, baby, it will be alright!" I said: "You dont understand, Jinro's got no marines!" My wife says: "What about all those little flying thingies?" I said: "You dont understand, Vikings dont counter Carriers!"

Then, your Thors blew up the Phoenix's and I said "Jinro's got this! OMG!

My wife says:"That's why you are stuck in that Bronze area, baby. Now quiet down, I'm going back to bed."

I'm sitting there, thinking, "Man, Jinro just beat MC, and my wife fucking insults me? WTF?"

Anyway, congratulations man. You are the reason I play Terran.

Jinro didn't go there to shake hands, he stated this a few pages back. The whole shakehands thing is a misunderstanding from the viewers point of view, hope this doesn't make MC look BM in Korea.

I know it was in the team leagues, but I have no idea where a link can be.

Especially considering that he FE every game.

Watching the games on replay are just amazing. Despite knowing the results, I'm still stressed out because the games are just that good. Sheesh!

I have a question about people talking about MC's FF decision versus Jinro in their first game versus his usage of FF against Rainbow. Now I don't actually have access to the VOD so I will try to base this on memory so correct me if I am wrong.

Rainbow had 4 bunkers all filled with marines with little to no mech back up and SCV's inbound as the push was commenced.

Jinro had 2-3 bunks with 1-2 actually containing marines, but also had siege tanks on both high and low ground giving support. Plus sent a considerable amount of SCV's for follow up repair. MC I believe chose to spend energy on Guardian Shield.

Retrospective is always 20/20, but in the heat of the moment GS wouldn't have been such a bad decision considering his was mainly zealot/sentry with a few immortals. trying to marginalize the damage the marines could do to the immortals in the few bunkers that were able to be complete and defend at least some of the tank damage to the sentry's and zealots wouldn't have been such a bad thing. Especially if the immortals (and future backup) could come back to clean up the tanks.

Spending FF to block bunker repair would have left the sentries and zealots vulnerable to raw tanking and Jinro could have chosen to repair tanks anyway.

Again, if I am WAY off in my recollection I apologize.

And he's been single handedly screwing with the metagame since GSL2.
