His TvP is decent, and his TvZ is amazing as well. There is literally 0 hype for Kas, when he has WAY WAY WAY more results than thorzain. | ||

Many players have similar solid mechanics. Not many have MC's mechanics. Then in this case i didn't see any notable mechanics from MC in this series compared to thorzain they were even. edit or explain to me what i've missed. | ||

Out of all of the top Koreans I can think of right now, MC's mechanics are probably the WORST. Seriously...his micro is impressive, but his multi-tasking and macro aren't close to the best. I can literally think of 10 Koreans who have better mechanics off the top of my head. | ||

+ Show Spoiler + Thorazain breaking out mass thor was something I (and im guessing MC) was shocked to see, that push was so powerful and well thought out with the blue flames to take out the zeals and the raven for PDD and to detect the hallucinations. Wow so impressed with Thorazain | ||

I'm convinced of Thor's TvP abilities (beating Tyler + MC straight up is amazing), but I'm not convinced about his other match-ups. Even though Fruitdealer played less than optimal, he was never even near close to beating Thorzain, since he's so damn solid, and just to tease you a little, I never said his TvZ was good or anything, I only stated that his games against fruitdealer alone, should tell you his skill level in TvZ... But really, you have to admire his ability to prepare for every match he has to play? From what he's shown so far, I am so excited for what he prepares against Kas, and I am even more excited about if Kas can possibly adapt to something unusual | ||

The only way I see Naniwa not winning is losing to Hasu. Naniwa is good but it's still PvP. ok so basically you already know the result in which hasu and nani will win in their respective matches. now im rooting for cruncher to bust nani. Its pvp so he has a shit load of chance, BOXER ........... | ||

I've seen a lot of people hyping up Kas, what are you talking about? In every tournament thread he's participated in. The NA fan base is just not as exposed to him as the European but they will soon catch on. | ||

Thorzain has been, by far, the most impressive player in the TSL3 so far so I think it's a bit too early to count him out completely. | ||
