JJ hit before MC's 2/2 and equal ugprades gateway units vs medivac/ghost/marauder isn't even close.

Well, for anyone complaining that MC is getting screwed by the format...I think that answers your questions. If you deserve to be in Code S then a) you wouldn't 0-2 your group in the first place and b) you wouldn't 1-3 your up & down group.

Outplayed twice and cheesed (well, kind of cheesed) once for a 1-3 record...not what you would expect from a Code S quality player.

Just because the format isn't an excuse for MC, it doesn't change the fact that the format itself is still bad. I mean having to win 3 out of 4 Bo1's to advance is a bit retarded

split the sentries next time. guardian shield and those extra zealots wouldve won. also he clumped up like 5 of his hts. you can't emp every templar if u just split it... he would've had an extra 3-5 storms if he split his units.


thats stupid he has to split all and get nice ffs and get nice storms and flank and stuff.
why didn't he do it lol
why can terrans just stim amove and emp the shit.


it's not even hard to split your units when playing defensively. if he just had all his units there at his natural, he should've had them split up regardless. it's called micro (and barely at that)

MC would qualify for pool play and knock machine out of pool play if he decided to go over on his own without and invite to MLG Orlando.

I think he might do this.


I think he needs permission from his team to make such a decision..albeit..having machine out of pool play already sound amazing..now if only we could get out incontrol


Well, if SJOW and Socke don't come, and DRG comes as stated... it would actually knock out Puma. = /

Just me who feels like Terran has a faster counter to anything good that Protoss has ? Its a question not a balance whine. double viking v collo, faster ghost counter to hts (and as a nice bonus makes sentries worthless). Am I missing something here or is this the problem here ? Scans making the switch happen faster because its a guaranteed scout


a flying invisible unit isnt a guaranteed scout? lol?

how about the fastest ground unit on the map in the TvP matchup, with a teleport ability?

or what about a building that allows you to warpin units anywhere where you could maybe spend 100 minerals on a unit and send it as a scout?

hm or no that would be ridiculously easy to scout with so i doubt that exists.


i love how your post is like "hey listen im not saying that im anti-abortion, but is it right for us to kill fetuses? i mean technically theyre living human beings too right and they will be us? is it really ok for us to be killing them? i mean not that im morally opposed or anything as is obviously evidenced by this thinly veiled quip, but hey maybe we should not kill fetuses?"

Ban this poster for this bull shit, please.

Hong-un is still in Code S and you seriously think that it's 4-gaters falling down to lower ranks?



the only time hongun 4 gated was vs mc.

the rest of hongun pvp games were pretty much a variation of 3g stargate/ 3g robo

It's not like 7 fucking zealots would have magically been able to win him the game, they would have helped for sure, but his army was all about sentries and hts, and those got empd to death.

I feel like someone has to step it up, come up with something crazy good no one thought of before, and help swing the matchup in toss favor again.

14 supply of army is huge in a battle... The zealots are there to clean up because marauders with medivacs aren't gonna die to just storms. So many units were literally 1 zealot swipe away from death and jjakji just got so much time with 7 medivacs to heal before MC's reinforcements came.

Sooo, am I right in assuming that we could potentially have an infinite amount of games now?


Yes, it happened at IEM a few months ago with Socke, Squirtle, and someone else, I forget who. They had to play through 4 rounds of round robins and a total of like 11 extra matches. Was pretty crazy.


I think the third player was Sjow.

Correct me if I'm wrong.


you're right and socke manged to beat squirtle 2 or 3 times but always lost to sjow while squirtle easily beat sjow, in the end socke was so sick of it and only 4gated squirtle until squirtle won one of the games and won also against sjow.

at least code A will be interesting. Unless they put all but one protoss on the same half of the bracket again.

Medivacs outheal zealots, I'm pretty sure it wouldn't have made a difference.

Sigh. Learn your own format please...


This is the first time they had to do a Tiebreaker since changing to the new up and down format -.-' give them a break.

Well, I consider it their job to enlighten the viewers about how that tiebreaker is going to be played out. Who else should know it if they don't? They should be prepared for the possibility of a tiebreaker imo, but as usually they don't seems to be doing any research at all.
