There are certain colossus/archon/templar/chargelot with a few stalker unit comps that Protoss can field that slap the shit out of MMM/viking/ghost provided the templars are utilized properly. Of course, it all comes down to unit positioning/upgrades and how well Protoss can avoid EMPs. Well placed storms can decimate a Terran army. However from playing both Protoss and Terran at a high-masters/GM level I can say that it is significantly harder for the Protoss in that situation, so much so that generally it becomes a one sided battle. | ||

Kinda silly imo... I don't see how terran can ever compete with gateway units that have been made even better with the ghost nerf and cheaper upgrades Conveniently missing game 2..... | ||

It is especially impressive when he takes down the best terran in the world. His strategies wee not something out of ordinary or very impressive. It's the fact that 99% of pro protosses know them and still die to every other Terran, seemingly. PS I also find MC's unit control impressive. He can be sensational. It didn't necessarily apply in this series, however. As for Terran, I find it impressive when they do a lot of multi-tasking like MMA does against zergs with his drops. | ||

Don't think ghosts or upgrade cost had anything to do with Mvp losing game 3 | ||

Once he Toss reaches that tanks become Marauders that cost 100 gas more and can't stim. ...Oh yeah... But all the (zero) tech MC had off of 6gates and a cyCore was pretty high tech and all works amazing against tanks... I wonder... what could terran do? /sarcasm | ||

When players like Ganzi Puzzle Oz sC don't make it through and a player like State does? or ddE even? Now that's some bracket luck. Props to them though! | ||
