i just tuned in i missed MC vs DRG i have a question

i saw MC vs IDRA yesterday and it seemed like MC's strat of FF'ing the ramp was basically overpowered and unstoppable against zerg. did MC do the same thing against DRG?

i truly want to know if DRG found a way to counter what MC did

did MC have any games where he actually properly did that ramp FF strat and it didnt work against DRG? or did DRG just 6pool or something?

i wanna know if there were games where MC did the ramp FF strat perfectly but it still failed
if MC made mistakes, or messed up it doesnt count.
if MC got rushed hard early and couldnt get into position to pull off his strat. doesnt count

in earlier games MC's ramp FF attack came at about 11 minutes with the voidrays and i honestly thought that attack looked unstoppable. did DRG face the same attack and did he defend it? how did he defend it??

Game 1 DRG got a large economy and held MC's stargate pressure decisively, while MC didn't scout the early third in time, and also never scouted the early fourth. MC then turtled and prepared to take a third but DRG overran him with roaches and hydras before tech came into play. Had MC scouted better he would have probably won, since he could have bought enough time for charge and colossi to be ready in time for the push. His defense was actaully great, but DRG had too much and came at a critical timing.

Game 2 MC picked Dual Sight, probably wanting to try the warp prism sentry drop into lockout of main base, but he seemed indecisive, so he didn't do it, then he started building lots of blink stalkers. He did a good attack, but DRG held patiently and then used fungal to overcome the stalkers. His micro looked amazing but his decision making looked lost, he should have taken a third while attacking and buying time to establish it safely, he could have won it. Both were closer games that it looked imo, but MC failed in critical aspects of scouting and decision making, while DRG was just solid overall.
