'Attacking' would be a more accurate term.. All in is usually a strategy that either must kill/cripple the opponent or leaves you severely behind. | ||

I expect it will be following these guidelines: 1. Be Byun. 2. Don't not be Byun. | ||

So MC changed his style and is no longer utilizing risky timings and all-ins to boost his win-rate? Hmm.. I never saw MC as the predictable macro-toss... kinda like the Idra of Aiur. | ||

Then he goes for a second all-in, and TaeJa shuts it down and once again MC doesn't even try. And then TaeJa is behind. Perfect scouting actually cost TaeJa that game in a perverse way. T_______T MC got to the quarter finals without even trying! bosstoss fighting! | ||

He had the upgrade advantage AND killed the colossus swiftly. Yet he still got his army crushed? Big ups to MC for winning but I am still confused in that engagement. MC had collosus and STORMS.Charging up there was the worst decision. He gifted his entire army(MEDIVACS if he had save them there is still a chance but no) for a nexus and all his collosus. MC counter attacked and destroy his third while MC finished his . That was game over. | ||

The first four gate was hardly an all-in and just killed taeja. First, second, and last game were all macro games. MC took a third, and remade his nat when it died. Was never an all in. But these haters can keep spouting bs to justify their tears lol. Knew MC would advance but Taeja did good. It was clearly suppose to be a 2 base attack but MC showed up and saw that he wasnt breaking it and Taeja didnt have a 3rd so he just said "okay then expansion time". | ||

One trick (online only) pony. What kind of bs is that? He made it to two Ro8s in a row... beat Mvp, Mkp and almost got MC... If there' any fault in Taeja's play against Protoss is his mid-game... MC outplayed all but once (G4)... even against Seed, Taeja lost by not being able to hold the mid-game timings... He is a really good player, another great TL choice after HerO... Taeja's rise has actually been quicker than HerOs... just needs a tournament win now. | ||

It's only within the past 6-8 months has MC blossomed into the fully rounded (and I mean FULLY) rounded toss we see today. He was fully rounded already during the first NASL finals against PuMa, which was a year ago. It's just that TL is pretty slow on the uptake when it comes to players changing their styles. | ||
