MC's ass is near off the protoss throne. Only two losses to go.

Then I guess it would go to the next most accomplished protoss

2 gsl championships is pretty consistent, but the last month is the opposite lol

Puzzle has been consistently good in the past few months, dunno where he was before that. Huk and Genius are also consistently average.

Even though I'm a diehard biased protoss - there isn't even one TERRAN that does well consistently. Let's not forget about MVP's drop to code A, and MC isn't even there yet.

Terrible play from MC. If he continues like this he dont deserve code S.

Problems:
1. Why no anti-air?
2. Why not take the middle with blink stalkers/cannon?
3. Why the hell did u make pure zealots vs roach/hydra? You dont want to micro?....
4. Why make stargate units and not deny the third from going up? Theres no creep to third yet when he was harrassing with phoenixes. Whats the point of making phoenix if u dont want to control anything?.......

If MC keeps this up, he should go back to code A and grind his way back up which would actually benefit him more as a progamer. If you are fan of MC, I think code A is better for him now.

Why do 90% of people who post in this thread think that they know more about the game than code S players? Stop trying to correct a pro's strategy.

Why do Protoss players keep going early Stargate against Zerg, It really isn't good outside of an all-in.

It's one of the only ways we can deny the third without the risk of getting caught and losing our whole army, as well as the only way to gain any map control with a fast expansion. Opening Stargate wasn't the problem here, it was that he continued to make units when he should have just made the one void ray and like 4 or 5 phoenix and then focused purely on ground army.


That's exactly what he did.

No it's not, he made more Phoenix when they weren't really effective, and then went for a quick switch into Colossus while remaining Zealot heavy, a huge tech investment hoping that the Zerg would be caught off guard by the Colossus switch, which was bad. Stargate is relatively standard PvZ nowadays, practically every progamer does it.


He literally had like 5 phoenix lol...

Roach hydra corruptor vs protoss, wasn't protoss crushing this 5+ months ago?


True they were, but Protoss openings are very much figured out in the current state of the meta game. Losira was able to fend off any damage from the stargate opening while making no units but drones and queens. All Losira has to do after not taking any economy damage from the opening is wait for the toss to take a third or attack and win. It just felt like MC, along with a lot of other protoss, are at a loss playing a macro game against talented zerg.

Some of these technical delays are really really annoying/ dumb. Someone should go in there and slap check. -.- Cmon now the hotkeys and I didn't quite hear the justification for the restart. Cmon Gom you're so professional in other aspects lets get our sporting events to start when they're supposed to start.

Wouldn't mind at all.

A Protoss who has issues beating a Zerg just needs to practice more, despite if it's Bronze-league level or Code-S level.


Tell us more of your opinions, terrible gold league player.
