Sure Jinro made some smaller mistakes, and so did Elfi. But it is laughable to see all those people calling it a terrible game. Elfi had some very good decisions for example when he managed to kill the planetary 2 times in a row when jinro was out of position, good reactions to nukes and had very nice army micro with zealots in front and hts out of emp range etcetera. I understand that he was trying to control space, but he wasn't doing it very effectively. Watch MVP use defensive nukes against Lucky for example. He doesn't throw nukes everywhere at random, he uses them sparingly to continuously drive back the deathball. Jinro was constantly wasting nukes when Elfi wasn't even considering moving out. Also, considering Elfi's previous play, I think drops would have worked wonders even in late game. | ||

Despite elfi's greedy opening, jinro pulled off very very good transition timings and had a strong overarching game plan. Of course, all you see is the engagements and ignore the strategical decisions. I understand the overall strategy, I just think it's a very ill-advised strategy for the matchup. A lot of its success was an indirect byproduct of Elfi's indecisiveness with army movement. | ||

He didn't sac those scvs as well, he just had so much of the map that those scvs stormed to death didn't matter lol | ||

Make your game (plan) work and make your transitions and timings work. He's a proplayer so obviously he is allowed to make mistakes, but his aim should always be to have a near perfect to perfect game even if it is very hard. Also I don't think the game itself was that stressful. He could have played a lot more defensively and make it very hard for elfi to engage. Actually I think the defensive stance of Terran in lategame is even better than attacking! Anyways what I wanted to say is that no one here should BASH players for mistakes or not perfect play, just because there are some players out there that are above ones level, there is no reason not to appriciate the play we just saw. | ||

It's hard when you don't specify witch interview with QXC. Don't expect everyone to be up with the news by the minute. Anyway, thanks for the answer. | ||
