MC rules. Seriously. He's like if Genius were 100% nicer but just as cocky, only he's actually as good as he thinks he is.

Yeah, that's the perfect contrast. Maybe it's his BW pro experience, but MC is great at projecting himself in a funny/cocky but non-abrasive manner. The way he balances out his interviews is masterful. He's really diplomatic about destroying Jinro. He doesn't really say anything about Rain being undeserving, just that he's confident in his own skills at PvT. And then he plugs his mom. What's not to like?

Genius is more like FBH.

Wait what!? You obviously have no idea what you are talking about or you haven't watched the games. I know you were hoping for a IdrA vs Nestea finals, now there is excitement for you! 8 hours of droning up and sending maxed armies at each other... ^_*

you seem to forget about a certain someone that will probably stomp jinro 4;1


You seem to forget all the times people have said such things so far in GSL 3 and been completely wrong about it. Since when did MC turn into God?

yea, sorry, I was wrong he stomped him 4;0

Q. The previous champions were all SCBW progamers.
A. I would like to become one of them. I already think victory is within my grasp since my opponent is a terran. I never lose to all-ins. He might be able to win one in a thousand games, if he can win a second game, I'd consider him very successful.



Hehe. Badass answer.

Better than tester is pretty brash but he hasn't been in the last two GSLs so I think it's very accurate.

You saw his play in the G-stars he wasn't that great. He lost to MK which MC beat.

when Tester's at his best, he pulls wins out of games it looked like he'd lost 100%.

when MC's at his best he makes it look like his opponent never even had a chance to win.

lol did you watch the right semifinals? MC never cheesed a single time, his early aggro was just so good that he was able to finish jinro off before getting to the late game. None of his openings were cheeses, just aggression and rush, rain on the other hand builds marines and sends all his scvs, one is a strategy that can be transitioned out of, one is a cheese.

As for people saying he was afraid of Jinro's late game....I don't think so, Jinro's late game is pretty good but MC has proven that he can play the macro game just as well as he can play the early game. And in the long games where Jinro beat choya, if it was MC in Choya's place, MC would not have lost. Choya made a ton of mistakes.

Plus everything about "he knew Jinro too well" yeah he knew Jinro well, but his playstyle wasn't much different from what he did against MK and Hyperdub, and anyways Jinro knows him just as well, yet I didn't see a 4-0 from his side, knowing a player well through being practice partners doesn't just give one player an advantage.

first of all i want to defend rain:
he did allin in 2 out of 5 games vs nestea!
2 of the others where he didnt allin he lost.
and the last set was the famous makabunker (it was so sad watching nestea there, desperately trying to come back)

and second of all:
you cant win vs protoss without applying early pressure, so i still think rain is just the right terran for this finals against mc.
All what KT currently needs is a Zerg and a second Terran

Bwahahaha. Straight from the mouth of MC, he doesn't even think a 4-1 is likely.

Awesome interview, only thing I don't agree with is his saying Tester isn't on his level.

Well, that may be true, but not in the way he was thinking! Jk. In my opinion they are, along with genius, the 3 best protoss currently, tester's just had a run of bad luck as far as I'm concerned.

But I'm really excited to see MC squash rain!!! And MC looks/sounds like an awesome guy.
