This Marauder + Ghost composition seemed to have worked quite well. Interesting last game.

congrats Top. I wonder what league he'd be in if he switched races? I reckon he'd end up in plat with protoss, and maybe gold with zerg.

Only if players complain terran can't macro lol.

But this was more mass marauders than anything else. 2 nice EMP in this game at least. Storm feels like a tiny rain today.

Totally outplayed, but to be honest Mc wasn't that impressive. I mean his battle micro was A-level, but decision making was bad.

It is called "TeamLiquid effect". One day you are a God, next day you're the worst player ever.

He wasn't much ahead mind you. If MC pushed that gold with his colossi, TOP would've been hardpressed to hold it. Like nazgul said, that small squad of marines really bought enough time to get the PF up and build up the viking count. Brilliant tactic by TOP.

That's the reason I've thought PvT is unfair. But since MC destroyed everything in GSL I thought he had it down. Perhaps he does and he just hit a bad beat.

I didn't see the first games but the last game he played good. He couldn't keep up with Top's expanding because you just can't do that as P; you'll die. He got his templars, he had great control. But there's just no way.

Edit: fuck me, why do I have to troll with the balance issues. Sorry guys.

Now, I'm not saying PLAYER is horrible, I'm saying that unit control was simply horrible. I give MC some slack because of these possible factors:
1)Playing from korea: big lag -> forcefields, micro and storms are off by miles. Hurts protoss a lot.
2)Tired, been playing games all day
3)GSL 2011 near, don't want to reveal the killing play this close?

I'm saying, bad unit control was a big factor in MCs loss here, not that "MC is bad".

Jeez, way to jump to conclusions guys. I still think hes best protoss in world by miles.

For sure Greentellon would've played better than MC ;-)

I was expecting Mc to 4:0 Top, but it went other way around, nonetheless very entertaining games. Top deserved the win

Game 4 was the best out of the whole series. MC still show how strong he is in battles. But TOP's tactical is top notch.
