Nah, haven't you learned by now that the finals are always disappointing. Nestea vs Byun 4-0 to Nestea.

MC is afraid of Nestea, he's losing on purpose to avoid facing him in 1 on 1 combat for honor and glory!!! :p That's the only reasonable explanation to this!! :p

Yeah it's better to get roflstomped by an onehanded 0% PvP HungUn than the best player in the world.

this is what artosis was talking about on one of the recent SOTG i think. Players are becoming more greedy as the PvP metagame evolves from 4gate cause people have figured out anti 4gate builds, and as some people have said MC is sometimes a greedy player.

I think Hongun is just straight up 4 gating to punish him for this


both mc and hongun 4 gated for 2 games so far...

MC built more probes though.

What curse? We'll prolly have NesTea vs Bomber. But Byun isn't shit, I wouldn't mind him getting that far. And if Hongun beats MC in this manner he surely deserves to advance. Just sucks for him that he'll meet NesTea in the next round and get 3-0'd.

Am I crazy to think that in PvP you could significantly lower your variance just by never leaving your base in the early game? I mean so often we see players shocked to find out that they're about to lose due to not knowing that a probe has sneaked in behind their forces in the middle of the map.

Do you just not stall a 4-gate enough if you don't go out in the middle of the map for a while?

This is the last tournament HongUn will ever participate in. He has announced his retirement due to injuries he has sustained.

Even though his physical condition has not allowed him to practice, HongUn is putting his heart and soul into this tournament.

HongUn has the heart of a champion and MC simply can't deal with it.

Byun is one of the most exciting players in SC2.


Completely agree, I think him and Nestea will finally give us a final worthy of Coda S.

The odds on MC cannon rushing/proxy gate in the next match lol ? ^_^

0%


Looking at his track record of cheesing at the wrong moments recently, I would say it's 50%.

You seem to completely forget Bomber, Byun, Losira, and a powerful Trickster....


Bomber: Died to destiny recently and has gotten spanked by him before.

Losira: Nestea's son

Byun: Only really interesting one. Will likely lose

Trickster: No



Byun will crush Bomber.

No way lol.


Agreed, Bomber is new, but he's is no less of a beast.

But MC's 4 gate was a few seconds slower and he was trying to get a probe lead (he had 24 to HongUn's 20 in game 2).

As a Zerg player I'm not trolling, just asking:
Is this just proof that PvP is kinda retarded?

No that's proof that if you travel around the world and practice less than your opponents, you lose badly.



hongun could barely practice because of his wrist problems and hongun's already hinted about a retirement if his health doesn't get better (wrists)

Perhaps it was mind games :p In his interview it looked like Hongun was about to retire, that he won't practice because he has 0% chance to win anyway. Perhaps MC is overconfident because of this. Wouldn't be the first time that a player does a "fake" interview in GSL.

I doubt MC could beat him anyway, no idea why you got that idea that he would destroy Nestea ?
He even lost to Losira, no let me reframe he got owned, so would he now.


Losira is arguably better than NesTea at ZvP

Nobody knows because nestea rarely plays top players.


O boy ... no need to argue with fanboyism but that response is even weak at that.
