Yes lets extrapolate this from 1 PvP series -_-. Don't forget MC has been doing a lot of travelling recently (Dreamhack, Homestory, NASL), which has to have impaired his practice.

Really cute how people are shitting on MC when he plays 1 bad series -.- Everyone plays bad once in a while.

HongUn beat MC??? Hell, either MC had a bad day, or I was way underrating HongUn.

Yeah ok, MC lost a series. OMG. You realize Flash doesn't have a 100% BW win record? But I don't think you'll contend that he's the best? Very silly statement, if you ask me.
My money on Nestea GSL title #3? He's fairly upset-proof, as far as they go. Looking forward to watch him smash HongUn's face in though. I think he should have conceeded just to let MC play Nestea. XD

MC have not played very well lately in PvP, I don't see this as a surprise. When I say not very well I mean by his standards, which is very high.

Yes >.>. Honestly while Nestea is good, I don't think it's automatic 100% win for him (even if HongUn "AND" he has only one hand >.>).
See San vs Nestea (though to be fair San was trolling everyone and was sandbagging but the point is upsets happen and HongUn could pull an upset against Nestea).

After that the game would be quite even... but simply coca sucks in all his decision making and execution in those games... and Nestea is simply "One of the Best 3 Player in the world" I don't think so. Hatch = 6 drones + the one he used to build + the one he uses to re-expand. He would also lose the mining time that Nestea had due to his own nat. In the Game of Drones you win or you die. Excellent!

119 people just died Worse: 15 more people signed up to die when the results were already in.
But seriously, if any one of those 134 people would actually take a bet like that in real life...wow. You need to get your priorities straight.

NesTea is such a boss, I can't handle it. I squeal like a schoolgirl when he wins. <3 ZvZ ownership.

I'm fascinated, which Protoss is better than him exactly? If you suggest HongUn or Trickster I will assume you're making a joke and other than that you're looking at a bunch of guys who are totally unproven.
Jeez, one lost series doesn't mean all that much. Top 8 in the hardest SCII even that exists isn't such a bad thing. In the past four months he's won one a GSL, got to the Ro4 and Ro8 of another, won Dreamhack, come 3rd at MLG and HSC and won SW6. He looks less invincible in PvP than he used to but we already knew that anyway. NesTea wasn't suddenly bad because he lost to Dimaga, stop being silly.

His Super Tournament match against SlayerS_Alicia was something of an aberration (and Alicia has sick good PvP). I really don't know what MC was up to against HongUn. It just seemed like he wasn't as on form as he normally is. He played a lot better against Huk. Maybe just a bad day?

MC just had a bad day.. its obvious by the way he played. it happens to everyone.

No! It proves he's f'ing TERRIBLE!
TL really makes me laugh sometimes. You lose one series and all of your previous accomplishments are invalid, apparently.

Happens all the time. Mc lost 1 series? He's done for. Mvp drops to code a? Probably the last time you ever see him. Nestea loses to sanzenith? No longer the top zerg.

Nestea vs Byun gogogo best finals!!! why did I liquibet Bomber.... And Puzzle is pretty good at PvP I think his decision making is so good in PvP and he's so decisive. Don't forget that 550 apm micro.

LOL, whenever a top player has ONE bad series there's always this armchair general coming into the forums and going "Hey guys, guess what guys.....this player is just not good anymore. His days of winning are over."
Hilarious.

Exactly! Good players are not allowed to lose a game! Only scrubs lose games
