MC keeps trying this 1 Gate Expand or a Nexus first builds that are so vulnerable.

Nah, I'd say he knows that Ret is a macro player and he didn't expect a timing push from him.

MC is known for 4-gating, and he just decided not to do it.

I am expecting him to get angry and go for 2 timing pushes, whether it is four gate or otherwise.

Thing is zerg doesn't have to prepare a timing attack to the same extent as Terran or Protoss: zerg sees greedy build and decides to make a bunch of units instead of drones. MC was just playing bad tbh, he had to know Ret can and will kill that if he sees it.

What was that little conversation between MC and Ret? I was tabbed out for a sec and didn't see the whole thing
"well if youre looking for long term, go safe, if you expect it to end either way, go risky. wow. just like sc2" - friend of mine when I asked him which girl to pick

Like Tyler was saying, people are finally realizing MC takes huge risks and/or plays greedy in almost every game and is punishing him for it. I reckon Ret being in the same team as Tyler helps in that respect.


I don't think you can win 2 GSLs, Dreamhack and Copenhagen with risky plays. MC is just trying out new builds. It may be raw now but it will probably be further refined in future.

MC cannons in Ret's natural, he cancels hatch and builds a far away one instead
I like how he kept the cannon. For only 150 minerals Ret's expansion is isolated(can't defend well, no drone transfer) and he is contained for a bit, offering MC additional safety.

Look, would you guys stop about MC playing risky? He just did it because it was Ret and he didn't expect an early push. Simple as that.

I am telling you, he now decided to give Ret some of his own medicine. He will kill Ret with a timing push.

they were waiting for a response from all teams to change the maps to better current versions and didn't receive a response from all the teams before Week 2 started playing so the old map pool was kept for Week 2

You'd be surprised. I mean, you did have Rain in the GSL finals...

Not to say that MC is not a great player, but part of the extra edge he has over other great players is his willingness to take risks and create the impression that you can't punish him for it. To win, players have to challenge that.
