Frankly, there are better macro PvZ players in Korea. Seed, for instance, plays lategame better than MC. The reason MC is considered to have top PvZ, is because he's so versatile, and good at everything he does. I don't think there's any other Protoss who can play so many different styles so well.

ret's micro is horrible

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

He got surrounded cause lings are so fast and he was at that exact moment saving 10+ stalkers from lings outside the front of his base, which he needed to blink at that moment.

At no point did MC even attempt to micro his immortals, his blink micro was also not that good, this level of play wouldn't get through the code A qualifiers round 1.
So... what that make you? Good? You're not good. You just know how to hide, how to lie

i hope DRG doesn't stomp MC like this, looks sloppy
DRG looked sloppy in his games too vs nani though

maybe MC is playing bad to throw off DRG?

He is fast enough to have done that and at least saved some of the sentries, or at least throw more forcefields as the last ones died. He didn't bother, like he didnt bother trying to save his 3 colossi that were miscontroled and eaten by roaches, because he knew he could win the battle with just 1.

The point is, MC knows ret isnt looking at the battles and microing, so he is barely even bothering to do it himself, and thats a bummer.

plus MC has the best control of any protoss, so even if he does a dumb build, he can make it do more damage than anyone else with godly forcefields and blink

MC playing pretty bad, but Ret's so much worse, it's almost laughable. I think MC can just do whatever, and then win from behind anyway as Ret donates the game to him with awful engagement after awful engagement.


What was pretty bad in MC's play ?


Quite a lot of micro mistakes, getting sentries surrounded, move commanded immortals. Nothing big, but uncharacteristic for MC imo.

I think he's playing styles he probably doesn't plan on using in the GSL so he doesnt give anything away leading up to the DRG matches

There's no way drg will lose after being so much better rested and prepared


Lately, MC uses more DT. This could be mind game vs DRG.

Not worth it to try and explain basic things to these people. They are not smart enough to understand anyway, it's just a waste of energy. Sit back and laugh at them instead, it will save you time and brighten your day.
You need to construct additional pylons.

Yep, I'm worried for the same reason. DRG is better than Stephano, and the type of mistakes MC is making in NASL won't be let go by DRG, he'll just pounce on the opportunities and windows MC is leaving open.


I dunno man, DRG looked very shaky against Naniwa, nearly lost from seemingly unlosable positions at least twice.
