See, nobody is saying that Tyler is the best player in the world, or even the best player on NA at this point. But he is a foreign Starcraft legend, a lot of people love him, cheer for him and want him to do well - yet I don't think anybody ever called him a favorite to win an MLG or anything. If anything, he's underrated, because a lot of newer fans aren't aware of how talented and good he is while he's training and motivated.
MC on the other hand is overrated BECAUSE he won two GSLs. People see the result and nothing else, and they instantly give him nicknames like "God" and call him a future bonjwa, or whatever. That kind of reasoning is pretty much the DEFINITION of a player being overrated. Especially since there's really nothing extraordinary to be seen in his play - a lot of his wins are due to developing build orders and timings, rather than being an overall solid player.

first time it was 4-0, second was 4-2, this time 2-4 !

I was kind of hoping for a MC v MVP finals.
a finals between two finals winners would be pretty awesome right about now.
|
Don't forget that tomorrow is Saturday, and Saturday is 3 hours earlier than usual !
|
On a side note, I believe the only player bomber has trouble with based off the stats, is MC. With him gone, he has a very good chance of taking this whole thing. The only players IMO who have something to say about it are mvp and alicia. (I want to say mma but he hasn't reached a consistency I'm comfortable with yet). As for Losira and Nestea, well, I feel bombers vZ is too good.

The 4-2 was just as one sided as the 4-0, He just pulled 2 BO wins which he still almost lost

No, his wins are down to amazing micro, something you probably cant appreciate or realise.

Eh, MVP can totally be sniped.
Would not be shocked at all if someone like MMA or Keen take him out.

in TL , it says tomorrow matches
sC vs hyperdub
maka vs Noblesse
polt vs losira
huk vs San
??????????????????? This is correct. The nestea and bomber part of the bracket arent until the last day of the ro64 they swapped because of mlg.
Just to clarify, only the day of matches are changed. The bracket remains the same.

It's not a final. MKP will realise that and 0-2 to 3-2 him a la MKP vs MC GSL WC  .

The "God" status cannot be reached yet at the current lvl of SC2, only in BW it is possible

That's EXACTLY what I was saying, that when BOTH are on their best capable micro Alicia is going to come on top. Did you not understand? Idiot? lol

Guess who else lost to Alicia? MVP. Don't act like MC got beat by some scrub, especially when it was in a PvP revolving around four gate. You people are acting like Alicia outplayed him in some 30 minute epic PvP games that showcased macro, micro, game knowledge and decision making.

Why is it so implausible that Alicia would have better micro than MC...and who said that MC was playing his best?

This is a very different game from BW though.
Nobody is calling Grubby underrated in SC2 because he showed what he was capable of in WC3. I think the same should apply here.

MC was significantly behind in his warpin cycles and was still holding very well, his only mistakes were allowing two stalkers to live with one hit left each which is still not a gamebreaker that two extra hits went off. How is that showing their best capable micro? If you watch the game he was actually outmicroing Alicia hard besides those two mistakes, he just didn't have the unit count to push him back. At one point it was like 3 zealots 3 stalkers to 3 stalkers and MC evened it out. Came COMPLETELY down to him having built a second gas and a couple more probes.
