Squirtle hides 2 colossus and then pushes out with 6gates, MKP did not scout it so wasn't able to prepare accordingly (colossus on 2bases is great response against fast 3rd cc). Game 2 nexus first for Squirtle, 1rax reaper expo does 3 probes and 1zelot kill. Squirtle defends everything on 2bases whereas MKP 3rd cc again, MKP agressive but cant deal real dmg, he then dies trying to defend his third. Thanks! | ||

Ofc the build has been around for ages, but twlight/2 forge has been more dominant midgame pvt recently than colo. MC vs MVP on Shakuras MLG Providence showed that 3 cc into double upgrades into 4 rax marine BUT with dilligent scouting has no problem beating 2 base colossus. MVP made lots of bunkers and had a huge concave and vikings. | ||

So MMA and MKP basically are dying to 2 base collosus pushes. and MMA just outplayed Stephano in both their games. Multidrops, multi nukes, 5 sensor towers, wasn't really close. Would still watch it though cause MMA won in dominating fashion. | ||

Stephano would have had a Squirtle-Alive-Grand Final route instead of Nestea and MMA, would have been his tournament to lose at that point. Interesting point actually.. one misblink changes the tournament, hmm  | ||

Consider the open bracket though, he was top 16 out of 128 which included about half of code S, and Code A most of the top Foreign talent and a lot of no names some of whom it turns out are really good. Decent enough point though, open bracket isn't its own tournament. But I still think Huk easily could have come out and, if he had, he would have done decently in groups. | ||

He didn't scout, he didn't pressure, he didn't drop. He played vs. Protoss with blind greed and while that works vs. Zerg, it doesn't work vs. Protoss. | ||

Please don't balance whine......it ruins the integrity of the games. With that said, this anti-timing is REALLY strong and may be a bit too exploitative of the fact that terran can make medivacs and vikings at the same time at that point in the game. | ||
