No, he can't criticize MC. MC is a proven winner, Tyler is not.


so i'm guessing 99% of the posters here should shut up about pro players then :/


his point was the hypocrisy. tyler said mc's play is risky and has holes while his builds are worse and his play is not flexible


it doesn't matter what tyler's play or builds are like... why can't you see that??! tyler's play has NO EFFECT on whether MC's builds are risky or not! he's always just been pointing out his OPINION that MC plays risky, which isn't exactly hard to believe.

tyler may have played poorly in these games, but that doesn't change anything.

Tyler said MC plays too risky. Tyler plays risky. This is hypocritical.


It's more like Tyler says MC plays risky which implies he thinks it's not the best way to play. MC stomps nerds and wins multiple championships. Tyler's playstyle flounders around not winning anything. That's why people get annoyed when Tyler criticized MC. It's not really right to say someone is playing wrong when they are winning consistently.

I can't get excited about this TvT...

Pretty sure no one in the world didn't think Tyler would be 2-0ed by Sen, but that's more because Sen is such a great player. Cut Tyler some slack.

Yes sir. Other Scv can repair them (maybe mules, not sure) and medivacs can also heal them. Not that big of a deal though.

Tyler never said "he plays too risky", he said the reason MC is winning is because his risks are working and eventually they won't work as well and he'll get punished for it. That's exactly what happened, almost word for word. MC's pushes vs july in the GSL finals worked so well because he always got such an early nexus to power his 6 gates. MC got knocked out of the GSL because Poltprime, who is way worse than MC in every way, did a counter build to MC's stupidly early nexus....twice. So yea, tyler was completely right and this isn't hypocritical.

I don't know what your definition of "risky" is, but Tyler played that very safe, he just had terrible execution and decision making.

Opening 2gate expand is almost entirely reliant on the zerg FEing. I call that risky.

They mean the same thing...

MC is still the best Protoss so you can't say he plays too risky. He used bad builds against Polt yeah, it happens. It just happened to Tyler too.

its a broken ad on JTV's part, report it on their forums or something. they've had bad ads that break the stream/dont play before and they normally fix it quickly

refresh and hope you get a different ad next time. or use an adblocker

The only reason people are saying that is because, from what I've heard, Tyler's said that he thought about quitting.


Oh I didn't know.
What is sure if that if he want to compete with the very best, he'll have to dedicate himself at 100% because the level is rising day after day.

so what's your point in the end? you original post seems to be critical of tyler. are you critical of his "risky" build? or critical of his criticism of MC simply because he played "risky" in this series?

if it's the latter, my point stands. if it's the former, then perhaps you should word your criticisms better than this

No, it isn't.

From wikipedia

Hypocrisy is the state of pretending to have beliefs, opinions, virtues, feelings, qualities, or standards that one does not actually have. Hypocrisy involves the deception of others and is thus a kind of lie.


Firstly tyler is fully qualified to make that assessment of MC's play. Secondly Tyler never claimed not to have risky play himself.

Manner up and learn what things mean before you start flinging accusations around.
When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive - to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love.

no it's not.
if you want to play it safe, you play forge before nexus.

he didn't in game 1, that's why he lost. why he did it after seeing the roaches, i don't know. but he could have played it safely while defending against the roaches.

in game 2 he saw a shitton of lings, so he knew there wouldn't be roaches immediatly, so his opening was safe.
