They don't like money? It's better to lose and have "good" builds rather then have "abusive builds", rank 1 in the world and win GSL:s and $$? yeah it's hilarious. like every other protoss is either too noble to use good builds or too stupid to study MC's games. Both are utter nonsense these guys are playing for huge money they're going to do whatever they can to win. MC is simply really good and it's a pity people can't see this | ||

If MC was only winning because of the builds he used, then everyone would be as good as MC by simply copying him. Obviously, his skill (strategy, execution, etc.) far surpasses most (all?) other pro-gamers at the moment. I think they're a bit jealous... | ||

When you watch Bisu from BW, you are in awe at the game sense and multitasking. Watching MC you don't feel you are watching anything special, except a abusive Protoss. HAH! really. then why don't tyler and incontrol copy mc's build and just own other people. i'm pretty sure their tournament earnings are hardly decent, maybe they could use some money by just doing abusive builds eh??? I'm sure they wish they had even 1/4 of MC's tournaments earnings..... MC is skilled. If it were so easy, every other protoss would be playing like MC. But I do agree watching Bisu play is more awe-striking. | ||

And, uh, masses units and attacks (and wins), as opposed to macro games, maybe you should also consider that its on MC's opponents to actually prove they can get to a macro game first so that he can play a macro game. For all you know, he's gearing for a macro game but they just die before that >_> Its nice to have an opinion but it seems as if you're downplaying how good MC is.  | ||

It's because MarineKingPrime held up a sign saying "Dokdo is Korean territory" after his match against Sen. I'm guessing it's been a hot-button topic lately in South Korea, though it's still a little bit odd that he brings it up in an esports setting. | ||

No drops or 2 pronged attacks, just macro and timing? Because i cant. However. MC forcefields are bossmode. I definitely agree that MC wouldn't be able to crush the top protoss' without sweating, but at the same time I think no other protoss could do what he does to the level MC does it as well. | ||

When someone is trying to take what is yours, regardless of its importance (though Dokdo IS important b/c of territorial issues which grants access to natural resources), wouldn't you try to stop them? So you'd let someone readily steal your $5 pen since it's not that expensive? OP: I hope Jinro wins! Go Go Gorilla Terran Go Go! | ||

Most games differ only slithtly, he either expands, doesn't expand, gets a robo, or something like that. But overall, he masses units and attacks (and wins with that attack) every game. MC is a pretty good player, he's just not showing entertaining games, in my opinion. The last entertaining game from MC I remember was in GSL 3 vs Rain. He actually played a macro game back then. So... In his games, he used.... Zealots, Stalkers, Sentries, DTs, Observers, Immortals, Pheonix, Voidray.... So, other Protoss players like to make deathballs and roll around and people call it imba MC love to win without deathballs and people still call it imba Conclusion? MC is imba. | ||

PvT is so much more versatile than PvZ. The PvZ matchup seems so linear and thats due to the conflicting problems with the gameplay itself, i.e warpgate. Im not saying its imbalanced but its a sensitive issue that cant be easily solved with simple nerfs or buffs to units. Protoss's only effective response to zerg mass units is colossus, so we either turtle to get to them or hit them before there are too many zerg units. Not much else we can do because gateway units are so ineffective against zerg units in straight up battles | ||
