jesus christ, how hard is it to defend against a banshee?
Well, now I tell you, I never seen good come o' goodness yet. Him as strikes first is my fancy; dead men don't bite; them's my views--amen, so be it.

He was winning those engagements because of a much larger army supply, a maneuver achieved through his use of the nukes.


I totally agree. It is stupid to think he wanted to get lucky with a nuke, it was all tactical movement and a strategy to control space. 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.


If you compare everything to MVP, then almost every terran is "terrible" but i think that is unfair. I think Jinro did succesfully drive back the deathball many times in that game.

Where is the problem with that? If its not in the game itself (stream - cheating). It does happen in every sport? GSL, Boxing..

I allways love when Zealots just jaywalk past tanks shooting at them. Litterally i had laugh out loud when Apollo mentioned how the tanks will make short work of Elfis army.

It requires more than 70 apm and 1 control group, too much for elfi to handle.

Watch Mvp... Are you kidding us?
No terran ever can play as good as Mvp in a tactical nuke based game. It's pointless to compare

Hehe, well we will see that kind of play starting tomorrow. But for 20$ though....

Elfi needs to learn how to use control groups and split HTs.

i think thats his point. The fact that so much more could have been done with that strategy means that it wasnt that good of a play by jinro

Jinro is playing pretty well despite being so far behind from the beginning.
i was driving down the road this november eve and spotted a hitchhiker walking down the street. i pulled over and saw that it was only a tree. i uprooted it and put it in my trunk. do trees like marshmallow peeps? cause that's all i have and will have.
