Maybe it was just due to the lack of practice time or the desire to impress in his first games, but Much's choice of builds just seemed to relay the fact that he was scared of his opponent; that he didn't have the confidence to play a game that lasted too long.


Umm, Much has always used funky cheese builds a lot.

Oh my pangshai... What horrible timing on this .

Much just displayed an epic show of fail.

Wow i think the whole thing regarding Much was plain wrong. Cheesing 2 games doesnt provide grounds to claim he's scared of his opponents. you said yourself that he's played pretty much every great player multiple times, why would going up against Last and Gogo scare him? doesnt make sense imo.

also the picture of much with the caption (paraphrased) "underneath his calm exterior there is fear in his heart"... just lol.

i'm not even a big Much fan, i just think your over analysing whats going on.

This article on Much is shit, when Flash rush bunk Jaedong, was it because he was scared? When Boxer does a proxy, is it because he's scared? I don't think so. what the fuck is wrong with you guys always degrading players that goes for what you "frustrated bitches" call "cheese".

i think you might've misunderstood what i'm trying to get at. much doesn't want the game to get into late game cause his mechanics cannot hold up. most ace players are that way cause they don't get enough practice time. when i said "fear of his opponents" i more of meant, fear of his opponent's late game management skills.

Or maybe he did this strat because he knew that his opponent sucks early game? You'll never know. But why making supposition when there is no evidence? Instead of saying that Much was scared of i don't know what kind of thing, why don't you just say that his opponent didn't anticipate 10 years old strat, and he just fucked up big time. That would be more fair.

Truth.

Katrina being played twice is to the detriment of Much's accomplishment, not an addition.
Katrina was hugely imbalanced for P in PvT.

It's such a shame that roro is doing bad. He was supposed to be the next best thing for wemade and he hasn't lived up to his potential.

Also, you guys didn't mention that when it gets to ace, players are usually playing against the best player, or a dangerous sniper, on the other team.
Zero may be 3-5 but this record isn't that bad if you look at his opponents. two examples of his matches were: a game against savior (not easy) and then effort (ridiculously difficult) and Stork twice (also ridiculously difficult).

Much is a hero. He's by far my favorite player and I'm exceptionally excited at his last couple wins in ACE -- Especially considering he is my favorite player and is now on my favorite team.

That being said, I've been a Much fan for a very long time, but he did become a cheesier player as his skill level dropped in comparison to his opponents. I can see where the article is coming from when it suggests that he uses builds out of fear. It's most likely true, because this type of play is more likely to get a win against an opponent with superior skill.

I love Much, but not because I think he's the best or he's brilliant. I just really love his playstyle and his persona.

I will say, he fucking DESTROYED go.go, though. =)

yes indeed. i just thought i had to include it cause if i didn't, someone would point out that much beating sea 3-2 wasn't special.

i'm not discrediting the win. the article more of wants to look at what these 2 games mean for much's future. i mean, definitely, his opponent didn't anticipate a 10 year old strat and fucked up big time, and much also microed his DTs pretty well (mine drags and all), but what we're trying to look at is what the builds say for much.
