the only thing that can stop razor thin 4 Warp gate is still a 4 warp gate.

Thank you blizzard for a lame ass match up.


MC lost a pvp series. CLEARLY THE MATCHUP IS BROKEN!

The MU has been seen asbroken since release and protoss players have complained about it ever since. Of course it's brought up when MC loses to HongUnPrime when HongUn does nothing different than what a diamond player could pull off.


As someone who used to absolutely hate pvp... I think the match up is perfectly fine now since the patch. Hell, I wish people 4 wged me more often so I can enjoy even more free wins.

How's it scary? All he did was 4 gate. Beating MC in PvP by 4 gating doesn't all of a sudden make you a great player.

Both blizz and players are clueless how to fix the matchup simply because of the warpgate,and 99%of the time u can't be sure from a first see on the base whether hes 4gating or doing tech,,

I feel like 99,9% of the time when i do a tech on the ladder,i get 4gated badly

I wonder if people realize that HongUn has made the semifinals twice and Ro8 twice in the GSL now, making him the second most successful Protoss in the GSL. Guy really doesn't get enough credit.

So we can die in every other MU at the 5 minute mark?
PvP is not easy to patch without fucking up every other MU get over it.
The only thing I can suggest is an unit with low damage output that can scout fast enought to react to a 4 gate all in. Maybe in HotS...

Patch 1.3.37

Due to an honored agreement between Protoss Clans, when facing each other; Warp Gate and Thermal Lance research is nullified for both sides.

EDIT: More realistic fix could be, Protoss units can't warp-in on top of of enemy's pylon power radius, due to warp field interference.

If 4gating is the superior strat then HongUn is smarter than MC.

He is truly one of the more underrated players. He even made carriers in the open season! Total baller. I believe he had one of the best overall average finishes during the open seasons

If you're implying that you could have held those 4 gates which MC did not, then, well... seek treatment.

Or maybe you can produce units out of your gateways instead of waiting till warpgate tech to make units?

Bomber is good, but with no results, and a bo7 vs nestea who is concidered the best player in the world vs bombers weakest matchupp there is no way he can win. He will get faceraped like a mongolian hebrew infidel.. belive me.

ZvT is Nestea's weakest matchup as well. It won't be the highest quality of finals, but it might actually be close.

Bomber's 2-0'd MMA, 3-1'd RyunG, 4-2'd Mvp and 2-0'd Polt.Prime.

It's perfectly reasonable to predict either player to win.

MC ain't the god toss anymore.Oh well.
Those 4gates sure are exceptional.


Yes he is. He's still easilly the best Protoss in the world, anyone can lose a game, nevermind in PvP. Even Flash loses games.

Losing a Bo5 is not losing a game. And PvP is not random, it's just his build couldn't even counter the standard in PvP.

MC is not that good at PvP and that shows he didn't deserve to win, period.

Saying MC is not that good at PvP is a little much. Maybe it would be more fitting to say MC is not as good at PvP as many believed, or MC in PvP ≠ Nestea in ZvZ like we may have thought

edit: typo


It's impossible to be unbeatable in PvP like you can be in any other matchup. Even ZvZ is nothing like as random and build order dependent as PvP. Just look at the trio of Naniwa, Huk, MC at MLG, Homestory and GSL.

Huk beats MC at MLG
MC beats Huk at GSL
Naniwa beats MC at Homestory
MC beats Naniwa at MLG
Huk beats Naniwa at Homestory
Naniwa beats Huk at Homestory.

That's just PvP, it's random. Skill does come into it, over many, many PvP's but in a small sample size it's a hell of a lot to do with luck.

It's a bit like Poker only nowhere near as extreme. One days play of Poker is 90% luck, but over the course of thousands of hands skill will determine your success. In PvP you can easilly lose one of games and series but over the course of months of games the best PvP'ers (Inca/MC) will win more than others.

The pylon interference fix someone mentioned is actually pretty good but needs testing and it is too much abusable. .. .

Other then making the first carrier in the GSL, he hasn't had any memorable games and/or series before today. Which is why people overlook him.
