What TL really needs is a good terran, While Jinro and TLO are still trying their best.. they are just not good enough anymore (I still have a bit of hope for Jinro!) what did i just read... Jinro is the fucking boss, period. Can't even win a single TvP while other Terrans getting it easily lol. His TvT is all about hellions opening, TvZ isn't special. many rlly many , even pro terran players dont like tvp, cauz it is fu!23ing hard these days vs P

Jinro is the fucking boss, period. He's gotten really bad though. I'd call it a slump but he's been down for like 6 months now. I mean, Idra had his slump, but during that slump he was still getting top 8 in MLG and only losing to Koreans. Jinro loses really early in MLG now.
I really wish he'd get his magic back.

This might be a little off topic, but did TLO give a reason for switching back to Zerg again? Personally i always though TLO's Zerg was more interesting than his Terran. Was disappointed last year tho, when TLO switched from Zerg to Terran, i didn't feel like he played Zerg long enough. If i remember correctly he was only playing zerg for about 3 months or so.
While TL picking up another Zerg at first seems puzzling. I'm kinda excited about it, thinking that having so many quality zergs on the team can lead to some more Z innovation. Kinda how grouping the Terrans for Slayers has.

I think you underestimate him, he almost broke into code a through quals this past time round. People underestimated him this time last year and now they're doing it again. notable foreigners he's beaten in the last 3 months: idra in a groupstage that didn't even matter for anything since idra was advancing anyways (and won the tourney to boot) "notable" foreigners he's lost to in the last 3 months: trimaster whitera vibe qxc kiwi elfi jim morrow attero sase so unless jinro has massively improved i don't think advancing in code a is realistic
It is realistic as he lost 2-1 in the finals of his code a bracket. You are bringing a huge amount of bias to the table, demonstrating this by dismissing his wins as irrelevant or unrealistic and emphasizing his losses unfairly. You list losses he's taken in NASL but none of his wins etc. You're either trolling or dumb.

Jinro is doing poorly but comparing his open bracket performance at MLG's vs. Idra's seeded performance is silly and pointless.

hehe don't worry i bet jinro is still working on his "to ban from tl" list after reaching code a again ^.^. Wonder if its really zenio, i would laugh real hard if it would be something else though.

he's beaten sjow twice, but aside from him? gerbil, whiplash, inka, syckness and softball are not "notable." they are not "low tier" foreigners. they are not even remotely relevant on the international scene. you can't seriously use those victories as evidence that he will succeed in code A. he lost in the finals of the code a qualifier, not code a. maybe i wasn't specific enough; i think he is not going to advance past the ro32 if by some off chance he lucks his way into code a, which is a statement backed up by his atrocious results rather than wishful thinking.

I bet they just got a new stock of the same T-shirts they've been selling or something.

I don't think you've paid much attention to the Code A qualifiers...for a long time, code A qualifiers have arguably been harder than code A itself. Look at players like DRG or Puma that never managed to get through code A qualifiers.

...wouldn't that mean it'd be even more unlikely for jinro to make it in?

Did you not follow Code A Qualifiers/Team Liquid/this conversation and realize that Jinro was one game away from making it in? The difficulty of Code A qualifiers points out how noteworthy of an achievement it is that Jinro was one game away from qualifying.

so your argument is that because jinro was one game away from qualifying for code a, his skill is comparable to DRG or puma, which is supported by his results in other tournaments, and he'll succeed in code a.
