I think Jinro may have been arrogant and not prepared much for this game. Looks like Morrow did more research than Jinro. I'm waiting for the day MC will have to swallow his pride, when someone prepares some new builds to deal with his style. Although MC is super good and player very solid and safe, but I believe he could be beat by unorthodox style someday. I guess Zerg needs a Bisu build! I'll get working on it!

It was very wierd that Jinro didn't build 2 bunkers in the third game. Deciding not to put down 2 bunkers if you are uncertain about the bane bust is just as stupid as not putting down cannons if your scouting probe is taken out while doing a forge FE.

A saying comes to mind:
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.
Dont fuck up, dont fuck yourself

Its not really even abusive. Kryix did this style first btw in GSL3 I believe? Just terrans started making bunkers blindly and holding it off. The strategy hasn't been used as much because terrans are doing alot better at holding it off.

Sadly Jinro even after seeing it twice made his bunkers too late to be able to hold it off.
When I think of something else, something will go here

If you go a build that is vulnerable to baneling busts, the lose to a baneling bust, why is that imbalanced?

On Taldarim Morrow scouted the 3-rax and saw all the geysers
I don't remember how much he scouted on Crevasse but probably something similar

It wasn't as blind as you make it out to be

It was blind because you always make the 3 barracks wall if you open FE, then you follow up with any of the common FE build orders. It was blind decision and it turned out right but if Jinro decided to open marine blueflame hellions (like he did for example vs idra in their most recent games) he would have had a build order win. I think these games were terrible and didn't show 10% of the awesomeness this bo3 could have had.

I disagree but w/e we'll never know
That bust in G1 hit before blue flame would've been done, and Morrow had an assload of speedlings

That bust in G1 hits at the same time you get blueflame on hellions. You lose 2 barracks but you hold everything without losing scvs. Again, this series was totally disappointing and I really don't respect Morrow decision to blindly cheese in g1 and g3 in such an important tournament.


The third game was questionable. I was looking at the production tab and praying for drones. Then all those lings came... In the deciding match, cross-positions, I really don't get why you would want to rely on your opponent to not defend a bust when you've done it in the two previous games.

But game 1, in a best of three, I think was really smart. Jinro didn't see it coming at all. Don't get why you would ever lose respect for him because of that. StarCraft is a game of hidden information. You have to bluff a certain percentage, otherwise you won't win as much as you should.

The way Morrow played in g1 and g3 are blind builds who can't rely on scouting. In a progamer level game you simply don't have the tools to scout either the 2 base baneling bust or what the terran is doing in time. Morrow knows this well and he decided to go for some blind risk build, showing that he felt terribly inferior and wouldn't want to face Jinro in a straight match. Knowing Morrow as a very rational person and player I don't respect his choice to not put his real decision skills in a longer game. This was just blind build order counter with a 50% ratio of win/loss.

I haven't seen many people say baneling busts are overpowered (except on maps like scrap) before todays games. You don't think there might be a reason for this that have nothing to do with balance?

Most people, even Morrow would probably say Jinro is the better player so a 50 % chance is actually pretty good if you are in Morrow's shoes.

Thorzain pointed out that there is a huge vulnerability in an 14 cc build that he just was told an hour before the game. So I think we see the development of SC right before our eyes. Just one day later and 14 cc is no longer viable. I do not believe that this is some blind play, or coinflip! It is the natural development of SC 2.

man my brackets are sucking.. Huk and Jinro losing? While im not totally surprised, its pretty insane.

btw; its hillarious that people are even calling MorroW a cheeser for these games rofl.. on the one hand, im glad to hear someone actually say zerg has a "cheese" (people usually only bitch at 4gates around here) but on the other hand, its ridiculous what this community has come to, everything except getting every single expo on the map for 2 hour games is "cheese" or "all-in" these days.. how ridiculous. I guess people enjoyed the Nightend vs Boxer games yesterday (yawnn)

because you'd rather attribute the fact that he got facerolled by MC to imbalance rather then the fact that he plainly is bad at sc2, regardless of how good he was at BW

It's more MorroW hating than Zerg hating judging by the number of times 5 Rax Reaper has been mentioned...

I don't think it was as blind as you say. In addition to the CC and the barracks to wall off he also got a good grasp on the marine numbers, and the tech lab on the outside of the wall researching stim. Morrow knew what was on the other side of the wall.
Lecture me some more on how to play please; I need help.
