You should watch the GSL more.


It barely gets to these situations in the GSL Games and if it does the Tosses mostly win.


Not in the past couple of months, no. I can't count the number of GSL games where both T and P build up large armies, a few EMP's just completely rapes the spellcasters because the P bunches them up, rendering the P army useless with almost no DPS. Mass bio proceeds to kite and rape the rest.

Yea most TvP comes down to a few good emps and game over. Lets not forget also that MC was ahead for pretty much the entire game and Select almost won.

Out of all the Zergs attending, tbh i had mOOnglade as last on my tab. Great to see him deliver some good games again. I think he recieved a lot of negative feedback in the last weeks.

Fight for Swarm now mOOnglade!!!

1 warp prism for 3 less medivacs, I think every toss would make that trade.


not when its carrying HT.. why else would you bring it

To force the vikings...

SK gets the money out of the pocket :D

come to think of it
who pays for MC's trip
oGs ? SK ? IEM ?

and what tag does MC uses ?
i didnt notice
is it SK or oGs ?


SK flew him out and are paying for all his expenses and looking after him (translator is SK team manager afaik, SK.Reis). His EU account is oGs.MC, although officially his tag in foreign tournaments 'should' be SK.MC/SK.Minchul or SK.oGs.MC or something, but yeah. Right now SK get very little for their dollar, I feel it is kind of unfair, although I do love the fact they're supporting bringing out superstars like MC and NaDa.

They probably forgot to supply him with a new game to use
MC is wearing the SK shirt though

That was really awesome, HT drops could be deadly against zergs as they usually skip hydras.

Well what was happening was MC was keeping the warp prism back until the battle started. If there were vikings it would have given time for MC to see them or even snipe them with blink stalkers. It does take a bit of micro but I wouldn't put it beyond MC. Also if there are too many vikings he might just drop them behind and forget about the warp prism drop for that.

He's wearing a shirt with all their sponsors. That's all that matters :/ if they had a problem they would tell MC

The warp prism HT drop only works if there's no vikings whatsoever. SeleCT did a really poor job dodging out of the storms as well. I don't think we'll see MC try it against Puma when they meet in the finals.

Really like MrBitter + Rotterdam.
I usually don't like MrBitter's infamous zerg bias, but it's nicely counterbalanced by Rotterdam's Protoss-oriented balance whine jokes. Cool shit.

The first time MC used warp prisms to drop HTs in battle I had no clue where those storms came from. Finally we're seeing this tactic used in SC2. Sickest nerd chills watching PvT since NASL.

That was an awesome moment. I couldn't figure out what happened too for a while. So unexpected.

I'd not if there are 4 hts like MC had.


MC was not taking a risk. Just look at his map vision, I think he is really imba.....

It was funny when they were calling MC out then a random warp prism flys over with 4 HTs and storms. :D

But it never gets to the point where the Toss has enough Gateways to completely overpower the Terran with just basically instantly rewarping the whole army. The GSL Terrans just don't allow the Protoss to get a ecomy big enough cause if that happens Protoss ( and also Zerg ) will just dismantle the Terran.

Now all you need is a terran biased caster to join in as well for a 3 person biased cast(Painuser maybe?)

I seem to remember seeing that recently by another toss. Can't remember who it was though.
