You can say that Jinro lost because he was greedy or didn't scout enough, but what it comes down to is that Dark Templar are the stupidest thing in the game. They give free wins to Protoss players who don't deserve them, such as Choya over Jinro. Or how about Puzzle beating MMA. Puzzle would have lost first round were it not for the stupidity of a unit that instantly wins you the game (anybody who didn't watch those, basically Puzzle DT rushed two games in a row, MMA forgot Missile Turrets, and later in the game despite MMA microing far better and outplaying Puzzle, he was too far behind. Basic recap of those games: Game 1: Jinro plays far better than Choya and wins with great play and NUKES!!! Game 2: Choya abuses Metalopolis and wins because of a map imbalance and cheesy play. Game 3: Dark Templar. Only one of those games is worth watching, I bet you can all guess which one it is. wait what ... you are saying that it's the DTs fault that MMA forgot missile turrets? There are a ton of things in this game that can make you lose outright if you aren't prepared for it. That's why you scout. Sometimes you take risks and it pays off, sometimes it doesn't. But you can't complain that taking risks (like not scouting the opponents tech path & not preparing for the eventualities) is actually, you know... risky. | ||

You can also forcefield the ramp on shakuras very easily if it fails. The void ray build on game 2 is standard on KR server for that position and very powerful. The DT play is standard as well because DTs can become archons, which are pretty good. | ||

Jinro had the perfect amount of scouting info. 2 early gasses, and then he saw a SINGLE stalker and a nexus behind it. What more clue do you need that SOMETHING fishy is going on? That should tip you off that there's some kind of weird teching going on, and one that doesn't need minerals. Jinro messed up in game 3 horribly, and has no one to blame but himself. Choya got enough scouting information from just seeing no early gas. He took a risk, but it was a calculated risk and it paid off. Game 2 was a luck related thing, with Choya basically getting a build order win, but still that's partly Jinro's fault. Choya went for a pressure build and Jinro went for a risky build that doesn't have any real defensive ability built into it, and he lost. Don't have Choya just because Jinro didn't play as well/sensibly as he could have. Choya got lucky that Jinro played badly, but that doesn't mean Choya is bad or to blame. Hate on Jinro for playing badly before you hate on Choya for his plays. | ||
