MCs play I still find worrying. He had some brilliant timings and there is no shame in that result. He just seems consistently hesitant to take a third, even on maps like antiga where it seems less like suicide. He also could have transitioned better in the Calm Before the Storm game. He crushed the first engagement but then didn't take advantage of that.
Overall while the result shows he can compete with the best he didn't really show an ability to win in a macro game against a top level Zerg.
I hope I don't seem too critical, MC is my favourite player. I root for him in every match I see him play. His vZ still just seems shaky with a sense that he stills lacks confidence in a macro game.

T_T MC I know he's still shaky in PvZ but I was really hoping :[ At least he was able to take DRG to game 5 And at least MMA won last night, he's my next favorite player after MC :D
|
Well, it was only right for MMA to won after DRG. After all, i can only see the finals being MC vs MVP or DRG vs MMA.

As he said in his interview, he didn't have a great deal of time to practice. Playing long, macro games takes a lot more practice and refinement that short 2base all-ins or defending cheese, both of which MC is amazing at.

I think it only included GSL. If it included MLG, MC would have won by a mile. As is, I still think MC should have got it but I can understand their decision.

It did not matter. Mc said he will be back and that is all we need. We are surely going to see a lot more Mc ceremonies.

You should have won that ceremony award! I think you can consider yourself as a winner, even though you didn't get the trophy
|
The ceremony award thing was a farce. Even if MC didn't win, Keen and Genius both have/had better ceremonies than Ace IMO.

MC is playing in the esl 2v2 tournament everyone should watch!! for some reason he's playing zerg though lol.

Next us event, MC vs smix :O
|
Looks like MC is invited to Homestory Cup IV, should be fun to watch.
|
I have mixed feelings about MC being invited to HSC (assuming the pic actual is him). While it will be great to watch him dominate another International tournament, if it is timed anywhere near the Code S Group Stages (don't really know), then it could take away from his practice/preparation for Code S.
And if MC is to be truly crowned once more as the Protoss President, he has to get further in another GSL.
|
I really hope MC casts again at HSC, after all he is the best caster ever.
|
HSC would have felt very empty if MC wasn't there.
