Yeah, I don't know, if MC makes probes, expansions and correctly places force fields...

Kas macro = beastly as fuck. At top level, macro level should not be this far apart, its' grubby that is macroing poorly as opposed to kas macroing amazingly. Maybe you didn't see Kas vs Nada? Kas basically beasted through with macro, and Nada is known for his macro. Kas has really amazing macro. Nada was getting supply blocked and stuff. Kas does have really good macro, but let's not compare it to that and a WC3 player who clearly needs to work on his macro.. Kas was a WC3 player. I should've said recently a WC3 player. I don't think they're inherently bad macroers or anything, but obviously WC3 is a much lower econ game so they aren't used to it. Grubby clearly still isn't, Kas has far more games under his belt and is.
Kas was a top semi-pro for 2 years. He climbed from the lowest semi-pro tier to the top in a matter of months and played quite a number of years before becoming noticed. He played Human too which requires about the same amount of macro as SC2 which is of course debatable but there's hardly any difference. Grubby played Orc which required very little macro so it's definite that Grubby's macro is worse.
Also, Kas has played a hell of a lot more SC2 than Grubby; it's unfair to judge yet.

Maybe it is just me, but anyone else not impressed by Kas or Grubbys play this series? A lot of mistakes from both sides but Kas just seems to be better.

You know Kas killed a load when he pushed Grubby's natural right? That's why Kas was able to out produce him so much before Grubby did finally push.
Absolute demolition as expected.

i feel like grubby should've instantly have countered after Kas's attack, he had a big army advantage.

MC fighting! ♥

Now onto the final between the two best in the tournament.

Are the finals coming right now ?

I wish they would get some shots of the players. Besides that, it's been a pretty nice event.
|
I feel safe to say Kas is the best foreignor in SC2.

MC vs Kas or Adelscott vs Kas ^^.

oh man I love these casters, which i watched from the beginning!
gogo mc!!

Series like this are a good reminder that sometimes victories don't have much to do with race, and rather with pure macro. Grubby was totally outclassed.

He's consistently cutting probes though, if you watch the production tab.

Kas had a 21 supply army and Grubby had a 40 supply one after he had just lost 15 worker, why didn't he simply rip Kas apart?Whyyyy!?
