Read again, I said kiting happens with gateway and MM then Sami then decided to put colossi into the argument so I decided to put in sentries. And when I said MM vs Gateway I stressed that you don't need to stutter step like MK to avoid concuss'd zealots to win just like how protoss don't need to stalkerfield a zerg to win. What the exaggeration some forum users put on the difficulty to kite a gateway force in early game with MM is amazing.


So you are trying to create scenarios that MM doesn't stutter step and use that as your justification for why P micro isn't easier than T bio micro?

Problem is that anyone who actually plays/watches the game knows that MM stutter step in nearly every game.

P micro is in fact much, much harder, than anything a T has to do in a battle. And this is true, cause doing fast AND precise actions, like placing FFs is simply much harder to do than clicking and then pressing S.

Thats also the reason, why there is only one player that can do "MC FFs", namely MC himself, and why every T can do the same stutter step micro.

And micro is generally easier when your units move much faster and have much higher DPS. Which is the case with stimed MM.


In the deathball battle toss just A moves and spams FFs and prepatch press t on the MM. T's have to snipe the cols, emp the temps,stim and kite the zeals. its not that ez.


Actually it is generally accepted that P micro for the most part is harder than Terran micro in PvT games. It's mostly because the only thing you do have to dodge is storms. Where Terran micro goes crazy is only in TvZ games when you can actually make marines spread out against banelings.

Also, the forcefields are what Protoss have to force to do to prevent Terran from kiting, and it's much easier to kite than place Forcefields in an open field, while in a semi close space, it's still possible to kite.

Don't troll by saying Terran micro is ever harder than Protoss in a PvT game. It's simply not. (Positioning skills are what you use to win against Toss) =P


No its no generally accepted. Don't tell other people to stop trolling when you are clearly doing the same.

I bet, had MC rolled MKP 3:0, this thread would be 500+ pages long, and at least 80% of the posts would have been whining about FFs, Colossi, warpgates, and so on.


I'm really proud for being a Protoss player. Protoss = guys with balls. T/Z = constantly whining "old wives".


Guess I imagined the endless toss whine between release and MC's first GSL win.

Why is it that people feel the need to create divisions and bicker with eachother based on what race they happened to pick? The total inability of so many people to be even a little objective is getting pretty tiresome.


Totally agree, It's funny that no matter who wins in any manner of way theirs always something to complain about =/.

I'm just happy theirs a TvT final :D.
Furthermore, I think the Collosi should be removed! (Zorgaz -Terran/AbrA-Random/Zorg-Dota2) Guineapigs <3

why should protoss whines when they got better units and mechanics ?
lol ...
anyway nice back and forth games by MKP
though he's gonna lose but he manages to get it back into the game
especially in g3 when the void & proxy pylon spawns zealots ...
he manages to escape from the deathly GG

Give me stim for my zealots and stalkers, and you can have the colossus and HTs, deal?


Pretty sure that would make Terran invincible.

T wouldn't survive the early game.

Do you not realize what forum you're on? Logical fallacies and poor evidence is the backbone of strategy debates on TL.

MC: All i know is that he's not that great a player.

Whats wrong with saying that? No offense but he aint as great as many other foreign players. And like mcc said, he can actually make a statement with him being wrong, could you ever see idra do that? Nope, he's to full of himself.

Haha, i wish this was not true.

I just finished watching this series, and MC definitely played disappointingly. His 1Gate FE in the Xel'naga game did not seem very optimal especially considering how MKP likes to 1base push. The push came at around 9:00 i think and MC just did not have anything but a gaggle of zealots, a couple stalkers, and all of 1 immortals. Pretty much all of his all-ins failed, and when he tried to play macro games he went a kinda greedy variation of a 1gate FE against someone who had cheesed him twice in a row in the same series T_T.

Also LOL at the people who are more interested in the drama than the actual gameplay

MC didn't turtle up like I expected, attack with less armies, bad position, less upgrade. Totally wrong

Not a huge fan of MKP or MC, but I'm glad MKP served him a dose of humble pie.

Obviously you don't watch many MKP games. He favors a 1 rax or some variation of FE over a 1 base push. Don't laughingly agree that arguments are bad here then immediately present your own falsehood.

Terran has had a hard time lately, and now.... a TvT finals! How ironic.

Anyhow, those two round of 4 matches were sickly good. Especially MC vs MKP. As Artosis stated: "Nerd chills served!"


This reminds me of Fruitdealer in season 1 when zerg was hitting rock bottom.

He was the only zerg in ro8 and nobody expected him to win.

uh no, he has to win hardly anything important and get silver in everything else

stork never lost to "the same terran player who is considered the top player of the game" and yet he was considered the new king of silver
