Most people dont expect it, but MC's PvP on a good day is like the best there is. No surprise his micro vs Squirtle won him matches. Both Symbol and Squirtle worth to go to RO8. Let the better player win.

Waiting for the Terran rage!!!


if you're trying to bait out/predict terran rage as a result of the last game? no. its obvious that MKP should have done a number of things differently (eg. PF instead of OC) which might of given him a much better chance of winning the game, but he didn't. there's no "imbalance complains" here whatsoever, just dissapointment.

Pfs can't be lifted, they tickle ultras and they can't drop mules, stop making wrong assumptions please?Thanks.

Game was nice, then 2 sec fight g g.


PFs are not there to take out an entire army by itself. It's there to hold a position along with the rest of your army.

Using an Orbital for the middle expansion is pretty stupid anyway. 6 mineral patches and 1 gas. Not worth keeping an orbital there.

Symbol played way better than MKP and yet struggled to end the game... glad he won in the end, that second game was ridiculous.


If you knew a bit more about the game you'd know that he didn't struggle to end the game, he was making absolutely sure he was gonna win, no offense. It is dangerous to try and end the game with an ultra composition with a low energy infestor count. It is MUCH safer to deny MKP's expo's while teching to broodlords and securing the entire map for your taking. This is an extremely secure way to play. If you see the last engagements you'll notice that Symbol had build his lead way too high for MKP and he could afford to do things like neural marines and such.

Well played by Symbol, I like the way he plays with Ultras he dosn't overcommit with them.

Even if he's not one of my favorite players I have to feel bad for Marineking finally hitting his stride in skill but unable to pass the ro16 even during his peak, he gets the hardest groups.

I think now Marineking has not passed the Round of 16 in GSL since the Super Tournament?

Thats okay since MKP being fourth in this group, hahahahahah.

stop whining and watch Polt's TvZ.

MKP is overrated in Korea.

You mean "watch Polt's Code A TvZ"?


lol polt cant win tvz either vs competent players

Watch his Winter Arena 2 games against DRG, Symbol and Leenock.


MKP raped Symbol in IPL/MLG.. your point?

Sometimes superior players win over inferior players despite balance issues. Sometimes(today) even when his macro/micro are on point vs someone who a-moves.. he loses.

LOL.

and symbol KNOCKED OUT MKP in GSL, SUP? which one is more important??????

Dragonborn just get banned already, nothing but player bashing all thread.

Are Ghosts really that ineffective in TvZ? Infestors just control the match-up so well, I'd like to see someone at least try to use them.

1 full ghost can snipe 4 infestors. I also don't understand it.


Symbol also has his infestors clumped all game long, would have been nice to see some EMPs


with EMPs radius youll probably hit 0-2 at the most.


Nope, you can hit 4-5 actually

MKP died because fungal. If that ability didn't exist (or rather, if the ability didn't root you in place) We would actually see micro. It was fine with stasis(arbiters) and plague in BW cause they didn't limit your ability to make the best out of it. Efficiency with units should be rewarded, and not hardcountered because fuck you.


Love those Terran tears


true how should endgame zerg win without fungal ?

the PF/OC example was primarily to game 2 on antiga (which was the most obvious and a very valid observation). maybe you should stop making wrong assumptions and use your brain a little (even just a little) as to where these "assumptions" are coming from.

It's so annoying seeing all those posts denigrating Symbol's skill. He's actually way better than other zergs at controlling his infestors.


I know. There's so many things he does well. His mechanics are spot on. Then I check the LR thread and see 'Symbol a-moves and loses his army 4 times and still almost wins'. The LR threads have never been more unreadable than since hellion double expand was nullified. Even two nights ago when the Code A terrans had good results 'all the zergs played horribly'.

MKP had like 2600 spare gas at the end of game 2. It is pretty obvious that terrans have to change something and make use of all that gas earlier.

They just don't know how to do it yet. Haven't seen solid uses of Ravens yet, but everyone says they are the answer. At their current state (just like Infestors pre buff) I don't see it. They are just not reliable enough and completely suck too often.

When a match up looks blatantly imbalanced people will complain; TvZ looks blatantly imbalanced at the moment.

I know Zergs and Protoss want to just delete the Terran race entirely and just play ZvP all day, probably because of how OP Terran was in beta, but I care more about the quality of matches than cheering for a particular race.

Blizzard buffed Protoss, TvP gets insanely difficult (because certain Terran tactics and strategies become obsolete), then Blizzard buffed Protoss and Zerg (Zerg moreso) and now entire openings such as reactor hellions are being scrapped.

Patches should not remove strategies from the game, they should just keep the very powerful ones from steamrolling everything.
