He once made a 7-0 symbol in the booth after beating Ryung. That's a possible consideration for sending MC instead of another toss. Which I think was a mistake. The team has had MC figured out since MLG, his stargate opening vs T has been analyzed to death and the smart money was on him using it since he had not broken it out in S.Korea yet, only at MLG. The guys spent a great deal of time analyzing it as a potential way to handle Terran drop-play when the thoughts were that it was very hard to counter as toss, but since then have figured out other ways to do it without having to rely on a Stargate opening. Ryung is also a naturally defensive player and the team predicted a couple of things in their strategy. 1) IM expects MMA to come out as Ace and prepared appropriately for him. 2) IM thinks that if Ryung does come out it will be to snipe T and then they can snipe him in turn with P because it's his worst matchup. Both of these assumptions are now incorrect. The team will not rely on MMA as an ace because it is too predictable, in reality we have 4 "ace-worthy" players and are building the confidence of Miya, Heart and Scarlett to fulfil that role as well. Due to our small team size we need to be absolutely flexible and cannot rely on "sniping" because that's too predictable. Ryung is now sitting on a 75% win rate against Protoss on ladder and in practice, his previously weakest matchup is now one of his strongest since thanks to things like Widowmines, he is able to play his trademark defensive, controlled style against P more effectively. Oh and he's a fucking baller. They're all fucking ballers at this point, I'm so proud of them. | ||

You sure are revealing a lot of information that could eventually be used against your own team. ...unless...you already knew that and are using it as a MIND GAME MECHANIC?! :OOOOOOOOOOO | ||

He seemed to always somehow fall apart in this matchup. but today he was pretty convincing. Looking forward to see more! | ||

Anyway, congrats to Axiom-Acer on the win. LG-IM even sent their Code S lineup last night. Also: last week I said that all the Scarlett anti-teamers are going to get bitten in the ass, and here it comes. Not every team is going to have Yoda to take her out. | ||

"Know your place new guys" is a bit of a stretch when the team is basically SlayerS + Scarlett don't you think? Not a diss, just an observation. Edit: Forgot Heart | ||

TB is like the fantasy league manager who trades for Heart, Miya, Ryung, Crank, Alicia, MMA, and Scarlett for like a handful of points and then sits back and watches as they wreck everyone else's antiteams. Except he's doing it IRL. What a fucking baller!! | ||
