Mc built his career on that, can't really blame him for it.

lol it was really bad.. endless posturing with no engagement. I hate it when sc2 games play out like this, when there's zero harassment and no splitting of armies, then a 5 second battle to close the 15 minute stalemate.


It probably wasn't the most "entertaining" game for people with low understanding of the game. However, I thougt the game was freaking awesome by mostly watching the production tab. So high level play and awesome game for learning.

Yes I probably just couldn't comprehend what was happening.

The kind of play that MC is showing right now requires more skill than any other 'macro' builds he can do in this situation


Quoted for the truth
In theory yes, but theoretically, no.

MC is the king of timing attacks, ofc he would do them, its not gimmicky, its smart vs someone who has strong macro play like stephano idk why you would critique that.

I saw MC outsmart and outplay Stephano. Just because Zerg increases supply faster than Protoss doesn't mean that when a Zerg loses to a Protoss, the Protoss didn't deserve it or didn't macro well.

You thought it was awesome by watching the production tab? Sure don't ask for much.

to be fair, if Protoss just sits there and macro up to 200/200, he is not even diamond.

if you thought that game was anything below stellar you must have a miniscule knowledge of starcraft...

Agreed, really well refined builds, Stephano holding the +1 pressure, MC with the very fast third base behind it, quick tech transitions, good decision making. There was a lot to learn from in that game

If he didn't make hydras, he would've died even earlier

Roach hydra corrupter vs. Colossus zealot stalker. Stephano needs to ask Idra how that works out for zergs. T_T

Really interesting play by MC to force that composition. You could sense how hesitant Stephano was to go down that tech path. That is probably what forced his hand to attack so early, and that attack was easily beaten before the 1st colossus even came out. Great game

I see the major complaints from Zergs/Zerg fans being: Toss can only all in and don't want to macro. And then, if a Toss does go macro (which necessitates a Mothership) the tears are "blah Toss can only win with Vortex."

When you make Hydras in ZvP, it's usually already over. Also, when you lose one of your 3 hatch before the 10th minute mark.
