Funtime is over, start behaving in here. You all know the rules and this isn't the place for some kind of comments or discussion. Keep it to the games and keep balance, the casters and meta discussions out of here.

Pretty please, with minerals on top.

MC didn't lose to imbalance, his play was mediocre. Well deserved win by Monster.

I have to agree with this. He let lings run by several times in game two whilst putting on zero pressure, he didn't scout the spire that was IN MONSTER'S MAIN and then chose to push out vs muta/ling/infestor without chargelots or HT or archons.

MC's play just seems to be lacking something. I can't quite put my finger on it. He used to be so awe inspiring and it backed up his attitude. Now its just.... meh


Yeah, those 6 gate timing pushes are missing. He hasn't won anything in the Korean scene since those timing pushes were figured out.

You know, I hate to say this, but I kinda agree. While MC has shown a vast amount of builds, they are in foreign tournaments against worse players. He really hasn't made much noise in Korean with those builds.


Well, it seems to be the truth. He took the GSL by storm with those pushes that no one could stop, which included his impeccable force field placement. Now he can't even beat an average pro level Zerg, no offense to Monster, but it's the truth.


For his defense, that's what every Protoss is doing. They do "innovative" builds and start losing once people figure them out, while other races are playing balanced games/builds.

Someone please tell me how MC could have ever played that any better than he did lmao, but you say he played like shit when he did everything perfectly.

Oh my.....
I've never watched a game where i couldn't spot anything someone could have done better.

And that game was clearly not a place you can't spot problems....
Losing all his blink stalkers for free, ling run by x2, 2x artosis pylons, poor engagements in general...


plenty of problems in the second game, letting the lings runby twice was pretty fail. But what about game 3? What problems did you see other than the final blink in? (he was already behind 50 supply at that point btw). Should he have applied pressure? with zealot sentry army against spling infestor?. Maybe he needed a fast third? but wait, its not terminus where you can get a free third. So what else?

Scouting your opponent's main is a nice start.


He scouted everything with phoenixes and observers except the muta switch which wasn't what lost him the game. Try again.


Please just stop with the balance whine. After that first attack MC was behind because he couldn't apply any pressure or take a 3rd. Then he splits his blink stalkers off from his main force at the end of the game and gets trapped an surrounded. It only takes one big mistake to lose you the game, that is how Starcraft II is.

That's not really an answer, though probably there is a better solution than the current.


Watch HerO vs Idra from Dreamhack. That's how Protoss should play.



so idra is a great example now? how about i counter your statement: how should protoss play against terran since HerO got 2-0'd by Thorzain? now do you see what's wrong with your statement?

Man.
Thorzain's TvP is his absolutely best matchup.
Thorzain take 2 games out of DongRaeGu in TvZ (not his best matchup).
DongRaeGu's ZvT is best matchup (also maybe best zvt in korea).
======>
lose 0-2 to thorzain in 1 bo3 pvt don't prove ANYTHING

Second time today that I saw what was supposed to be a mundane Hellion poke turn into a Drone massacre. Happened during one of today's NASL games, too (unless I'm mistaken. I saw quite a few VODs today, and it's late so my memories may be blending together)

Hero just landed to korea with huk, do you guys think jetlag will affect him? hes gonna play his code A match in just 4hrs

On the topic of jetlag, why is it that when it comes to players traveling to events, they seem to always arrive only a day before they need to play? Why not get there at least a few days in advance in order to get some rest and adjust to the time difference so they won't be exhausted when it comes time to get into the booth?

Because there isn't enough time sometimes(Like, GSL Match 1 day before MLG). Also when they're traveling, they need to take every little time in between flights to practice

Just a random thought but if you had told me several months ago that oGsMC would be knocked out entirely in the GSL in 2011, I would've called you crazy. Hope to see him back in the GSL soon, one of my favorite personalities and players. He might not be Code S or Code A anymore but he's still a "must see" player for me.

Congrats to Monster on the victory and good luck to him in the remainder of the tournament.

Idra is so bad at the moment I bet even a mid range foreigner player offracing could beat him.

Oh wait...

Protoss needs a (P)HerO.

With the hair of Bisu and possibly the hair of Jaedong, I hope HerO becomes the hero Protoss needs. En taro Adun!

Anyways, on the bright side, MC is going to the next MLG, and with so many Code S players in the pools, MC has a chance at regaining his Code S spot.


What the fanboy casual observers on TL don't realize is that Hero is a mid-range Protoss who makes his bones beating white dudes. He's vs Violet in the first round and probably has a less than 50% chance of making it past him...


Violet sucks. Would absolutely bet on HerO


viOlet's ZvP is fine, it's his ZvT that is inconceivably bad.
