I just watched the VODs I think Sheth has to work on some things, especially (and yes, here it comes!) mechanics. He really did suicide a lot of units. He could have taken out like half of puzzles natural but instead decided to attack 4 zealots with zerglings while the probes were mining happily behind them. I'm really glad he gets another chance next month! Jinro's first game...aw god dat banshee I'm impressed how long he still stayed in the game with the constant attacks on his main infrastructure. I think it would have been nice if there was some scouting viking or similar at the left side of the map to give him more time to react. Otherwise it was really...well...pretty much over after losing so many SCVs and his blue flame attack didn't go that well.The second game...again: impressed that he stayed in the game/could push back the initial attack and even get a very good position. asd did counter his hellions very nicely. Just one question: why didn't you get your 3rd expansion next to the gold and instead decided to get the one far down on the right? Clearly it's easy for asd to harass there, but the other base lived like 1 minute or so? I think it would have been the better choice? Otherwise it was pretty even in the midgame I think and Jinro could even have pushed a bit harder - in the end asd just had the better economy being 2 or even 3 bases ahead. | ||

Code A will have 6 foreigners in it! ARE YOU HYPED YET?! Sheth came to Code A with 2 weeks of Korea under his belt and he beat San "the Man" Zenith, though its no doubt that the two weeks improved his play but most of it was continuing his style and playtype from NA. Sheth is by no means the worst player, but he also doesn't have many impressive results under his belt. If this is what Sheth can do in Code A, imagine what the other Code A participants will do. I'm calling it right now, Code A August will have a foreigner champion, and I really hope it comes down to Naniwa vs Thorzain again haha. Also on the topic of next GSL, Naniwa will be training with Moon because they're on the same team, who else smells a bit of domination for both players in the near future? | ||

Stupid mistakes that he shouldn't be making leading to situations that I have no idea how he could have gotten out of because his opponent realized he made a stupid mistake. It seems like Jinro keeps chugging ahead on whatever his first gameplan was after something goes wrong. 2nd Banshee dies? Make a third! I'm not sure what the right decision would have been, but stuff like that and/or the reactor vs Line seem like they're not the right calls to make. It's letting your opponent scout pretty much exactly what you're up to and slow it down considerably. If you keep trying to do it, it seems like your opponent would have to make a fairly big mistake in order to not beat you.Idk, sucks a lot because Jinro at his best is really entertaining to watch, and instead we have players like vanvan in Ro8. Get 'em next season! Edit: Ahhh, I almost forgot that there would be so many foreigners in code A next season! Well, that'll be interesting to watch, at least. | ||

What you need to do is stop responding to every troll/idiot, and maybe get some sleep. Destroying trolls is djWHEAT's job anyway. | ||

It might have been the wrong choice, but it was a micro decision not 'oh im afk'. Stupid post - I just followed through with my build vs Line even when reactor died, the thing you should be pointing out is that theres no reason for the reactor to be in a position where it can be killed in the first place - just lift the rax and build the factory in its place and the reactor behind it. IE a preparation mistake, if you go reactor first and lose it like that of course you should fucking lose lol HongUn game has nothing to do with 'things not going as planned' - I had practiced against phoenix but I was just really bad at dealing with them at the time. Again nothing to do with phoenix somehow being unexpected... Just a feeling of annoyance at how I wasted an entire game on something so stupid - because Im pretty sure nobody here thinks that Im actually bad enough that I cant play a build past 35 supply without supply capping myself (which is why people talking about mechanics piss me off when I lost because I made a far bigger mistake than that). well i have to admit that i also thought the problem were mechanics and those things but after reading Jinros explanation about how little mistakes become a huge problem later in the game i now understand the situation a lot better. Also i realize that my knowledeg of the game its like 1% in comparison of Jinros and im sure that this apply for a lost of ppl here. Keep working man, we believe in you | ||

Do you think that your recent "downfall" since u had your really good Code S runs are due to others, mostly the koreans, and right now the Code A koreans in particular are just getting better and improving at a faster rate than you? Sometimes, not always but sometimes I do get the feeling that you might be a step or two behind many of them in terms of improvement, and I do belive Code A is just gonna get harder and harder for each season. Now, you do live in the oGs house and you got some amazing players around you so that contradicts my "thought" somewhat, but still I would like your opinion on it =) | ||
