sjow thinks he is worth more than he is. IMO he's not on the level of a kas or thorzain, they would be infinitely better pick ups for any team.


What are you talking about? He is easily top 3 terran in Europe. Didn´t he 2-0 Kas just recently etc? There are very few terrans who are as smart as SjoW in game.

Those who say he is overrated cannot have watched his recent games.


There is no way he is top 3 Terran in Europe when we have;

Kas
Beastyqt
Thorzain

In my opinion they are the top 3 ^

Followed by;

Jinro

I think Sjow is more along the level of skill such as BratOK, Strelok, Satiini, Cloud,

P.S - One game well you play well and take a win does not mean you are entirely better then your opponent. Reference the Demuslim vs Nestea match as an example. But I will give credibility where it's due, you are only good as your last game.....
Terran, nerfed since '10. One ability at a time!

hmm...

My ranking would be like

Kas/Thorzain
Happy/Demuslim/BratOK/Strelok
SjoW/Beasty/ClouD/Jinro?

hard to say though tbh. SjoW is still a great player and will surely find a nice team.

Why do people look at Jinro and rank him so highly when he haven't done anything at all in so long.

Because all he does is train in korea and constantly make it 1 or 2 rounds away from qualifying for code A.


That and he's fucking jinro, he's just awesome

Don't forget that Sjow made it past the first round of code A in November, his TvT is as good as the best foreigners and I'm sure he'll find a team soon. Maybe Quantic to join Naniwa, although I don't know if he really wants to train in Korea.

? Which progamers in Korea have done "anything". It's the most competitive scene in the world with the least amount of tournaments to post results in. Why do you think? Jinro is easily a top Euro terran but being in Korea means his "results" are going to be skimpy.

I wonder if there ever was a news about someone leaving a team, joining a team that wasn't unexpected.

In all honesty he should join TL. With Jinro slumping for the past 8 months or so and TLO switching to zerg it would be good to enlist a Terran player without such a problem. Plus it could be beneficial to Jinro to have someone to discuss his play with.

That's stupid. Look at his record:

Assembly Winter 2011: Lost to elfi, teaja, won with adelscott. Unimpressive.
IPL TAC: lost to Sase and artist
NASL S2: lost to HwangSin and IdrA
MLG Orlando: lost to SaSe and Polt.
...

or the other way around:

In international tournaments he won with:
sycknesS (MLG Orlando) Bo3
ChAnCe (MLG Providence) Bo3
Slivko (NASTL S1) Bo1
Adelscott (Assembly Winter 2012)

and that's all since Assembly Winter 2012. Definitely Jinro still is unable to figure out his game. Sad, as I would love him to do so.

Overall I agree but when Sjow is at his best he's at the very top level. I don't know if it's motivational reasons or whatever but he's a inconsisten which is why he falls into the latter category.
