It's a hard lesson he had to learn just like SCfou did who is now toiling in code a because of his bravado as well. Go for the easy pick to secure your Code S is what players should do. With a bo1 situation, it's not worth the risk. | ||

MC picked MVP because he wanted to maximise his chances of getting top 2 in rank points for GSL so as to get invited to BlizzCon. The way it worked, he maximised the chances of MVP and NesTea playing their toughest opponents - himself and each other - early on, giving him more opportunity to overtake in rank points. Of course, that's not how it worked out, but the strategy was intelligent. | ||

Hopefully MC beats puma though! Go MC go! | ||

Of course, he was thinking about GSL, he definitely thought he can beat MVP, he is just too confident. | ||

He just figured that he could beat everyone else picked in the group. | ||

Unfortunately, plans don't always work out  I'm sure MC travelling also takes a toll on his practice schedule. Huk, MC all showing small signs of inconsistency which is usually a sign of lack of practice. | ||

Well... people have been making the excuse for Puma that he's been sick and personally I don't know enough to comment, but if he does beat MC then I'd say the excuse is true. | ||

Go MC go!It is just like not worth the risk to kill the pylon but he is so confident on his skills and decisions and he just goes for it. And in fact, that is what makes his games look great. | ||
