Hes two time GSL champion. Dreamhack champion and yesterday won the lan even in denmark. He is _good_, very good. He also lost convincingly to Thorzain who i thought outplayed him, and quite a few other gamers. Hes in the code a/s up and down matches after being beaten 2-0 quite easily by polt prime. Awesome player who likes risks? Yeah. Bonjwa? lolnothanks. | ||

They'll be destroyed, the tournament will be terrible with these unknown noobs ! This is a good lesson toi have, earning a spot by defeating a 1024 players field is being legit good. The haters fail again. this is really true, beeing able to qualify vs all the best players and all the "unknowns" I'm glad that TSL did this type of seeding and not having only invites. And the games has been SOOO good aswell. | ||

Results speak for themselves everything else is just talk. ^this To win you have to take risks (obviously there's a difference between risky play and pure recklessness). The "play it safe" mindset works when the game is almost yours- otherwise it's the attitude of someone who's not going to win. | ||

That was after his loss to Thorzain, trying weird builds and lacking in his typical early pressure. So he loses, then says to self: Stop messing around. Then he wins 4-0. All with early aggression builds he is renown for. | ||

Except if you are MC, you can feedback all the ghost in a bioball (game 4 was awesome). If you are everyone else, you just die to EMP. | ||

Why you try to make general -- stupid -- conclusions out of the results of two matches? could it be that among equals, you lose some and win some? MC has just had more chances to show he can win.. but I bet Kas or Thorzain would be able to make a bunch of money too, had they played full time in Korea for a year... | ||

Now people are finally realizing that TvP isn't that imabalanced in P's favor as long as you make more than 2-3 units and try to make ghosts and ravens. I'm also pretty sure that Kas is the better European terran. Everyone comparing Thorzain to Kas based on the recent results are really treating these two players unfairly. Kas is in more tourneys, and doesn't get time to practice builds for weeks against MC like Thorzain had the chance to do in prepping for TSL 3. Totally different "game types". | ||

Hahaha you are full of it  "lost convincingly to Thorzain" 3-2 and toe to toe game 4 are saying that it was close match. Also, have you seen HOW he won this tournament in Denmark? 4-0 Kas, who has amazing TvP. Can't argue with results. | ||

Also, Ret schooled MC in NASL. | ||

While I'm not trying to take away anything from Thorzain's win which was great play all the way I would hardly call having an upgrade advantage "outplaying or win convincingly". That was the really the only thing winning him the games. That is the counter builds to MC's low upgrade builds so it was great planning and execution from Thorzain. Outplaying though? Nah. Deserving the win and should be praised for it? Of course. | ||

Thorzain, 1 week, prepared. MC, copenhagen games, GSL, NASL, TSL. Nuff said. Because everyone can kill MC by preparing 1 week.. lol!!! Thorzain played really well, and defeat a hard protos player because his good, not because MC 'hadn't' time to prepair. | ||
