I don't really follow the Korean scene, but is MC single-handedly changing the PvZ metagame for toss? both in HSC and NASL, he has been consistently going 3-4 bases which is in stark contrast with his signature 2base all ins.

In all fairness, very few Zergs have good micro (by that I mean Stephano and DRG) and anyone's micro looks bad next to MC's top 1 control.



Oh please, when the first big attack came he placed lousy 3 forcefields when he had 6 sentries and just let the zerglings walk in first and take all of them out, barely even kited the immortals.

He lost because he was rallying all his bases to his opponent third and a moving into a cannon plus stalker concave, i dont think he was even looking at the battle for like 3 minutes

That game is between 2 different levels of players. It is like MC can do whatever he wants and still win.

THIS! PLEASE! PLEASE!
You can't out-think the swarm, you can't out-maneuver the swarm, and you certainly can't break the morale of the swarm.

Zergs have almost nothing to micro anyway. It's all about picking an engagement with the opponent's army right.

The only thing they need to do is make sure their infestors don't go and hug the enemies army, but most of them have trouble even doing that :p

He's saving his most powerful two bases all-in for DRG.

Let's not use this term every time a foreigner is playing but rather when one's playing, far ahead, and really fucking it up.


This.


I'm gonna +1 this too. "full foreigner" is being used almost as much as "bonjwa" nowadays

Not every loss requires someone to go full foreigner, just like how not every tournament win means someone's a bonjwa.

Couple of europeans have some amazing micro. I can't remember whether it was nerchio or darkforce, probably nerchio, that just blew me away with his micro in a couple of games I saw.

Maybe Ret needs his full attention for macro? His engagements and micro are always poor. Like those infestors all dancing in front of the army. Running his entire army into a deathtrap to kill 3 sentries. You can't beat top players like that.

What was pretty bad in MC's play ?


Uncharacteristic to MC, he missed some forcefields at crucial moments.

He's saving his high level 2 base play for DRG in GSL Doesnt want to give him more recent replays to watch. Maybe MC feels more comfortable playing macro games now? idk

No, not really. But he is pretty good!

Letting lings eat his sentries, controlling DTs poorly at various points in the game, letting his Colossi run ahead of the army and get fungald, and so forth. Uncharacteristically sloppy for a player known for his perfect execution.
