Can't wait for NASL tonight, get to see some relative unknowns get to really make their marks. $25 bucks well spent (especially as it also supports JTV!).

This. 100x

If I played a PvP series and my opponent skipped zealots to go 2gate stalker every game, then I'm probably hitting him as hard as I can before those stalkers pop.

Have you forgotten that microing 3 units has absolutely nothing to do with strategy ?

Micro in general has nothing to do with strategy. Strategy is about economy management and global army management aka positionning. Microing individual units has nothing to do with strategy.

Really, people have a right to be upset if we are robbed of a great finish yeah? But MC won grats to him.


You obviously don't know what a great finish is.

Was a bit anti-climactic but if I was in MCs shoes I'd probably do the same. WhiteRa is still a bigger baller though.

MC noticed on Xel Naga Caverns that White-Ra doesn't scout on 9 and doesn't check for proxy spots on 2 player maps, as well as placing his Pylon semi-vulnerable. He got even more lucky that White-Ra scouted horizontal spawns first resulting in the ultrafast gg, but it wasn't a random cheese.

He won. He won fairly. Who cares how he won. White-Ra could have used the same strategy. He could have scouted. Both players played their game and MC came back from 2 down. Idra essentially gave up after losing one game to MC (according to popular opinion here).

Congrats to MC for taking a chance and being rewarded.

LoL @ people disliking MC for the 2 gate proxy. You would be delighted if White-Ra did that and won. Balls of fucking steel.

You are making a fool of yourself. The player there broke the rules of the game. Where did MC break the rules?

Get over it, it was awesome day!

The biggest CONCERN I have about that is:
Isn't that map meant to be close by air or cross? If so,how did MC know the spawn of White-Ra?
