Supplies even

Terran gets up 60 supply form good EMPs

Where the hell is the balance whine coming from?


Because it defies all logic of RTS play. You don't just equalize, especially in the middle of a fight, from being 60 supply down. Thats where the balance whine is coming from.


If spells closing a supply lead is bullshit, then spells getting that supply lead must also be bullshit.



Except it wasn't due to spells that created that lead. It was due to baiting in the 3rd, and forcing MC to separate/split his army. It was a great tactical decision by Hack. A pew pew spell that destroys 60 supply in 1 second is not fun.

That would have looked much different at the start if not for EMP.

Not to mention that it's not like storm was killing a full hp army. Everything had been stimmed twice and been beaten up by the gateway units. The first storm that got like 15 marines killed them all in one tick.

It doesn't matter how good storm is, or that Hack made good decisions up to that point. Hack is aware of the existence of storm and therefore the decision to press in with weak units was poor. Whether or not storm is overpowered is besides the point. Hack wasn't forced into a position where his army being stormed was the only thing that could happen. He chose that risk on his own.


And thats why hack brought ghosts and EMPed half the templars before hand. But it doesn't matter because all it takes is 2 storms to completely destroy Terran, where as 2 EMPs with its puny AOE barely scratches Protoss.


At that point MC had sniped like 8 medivacs over the course of the game. Had to eat storms like Hack was trying to do when you don't have the healing to back it up.

ya, hack scv scv, mc weatherman, mc win

My point was that Hack didn't even need to go in with his ghosts after he gained that advantage. He obviously saw an opportunity to win right then and there and got too eager. The safest play in that situation was to retreat with his advantage. EMPing half the templars when your units are weak isn't good enough.

I wonder if Incontrol gave everybody a trash talk course before this thing started. What happened to 'i just want to show good games'.

When he tried to coach HerO, HerO just said, "THIRSTY" which looking back on it that is pretty solid trashtalk.

ahahaha i remember that it was so funny at that time

MC is the staple product of sc2, there is not one other player that has been around this long and still winning and winning...just insane and on top of it he has impeccable people skills.


Mvp has, but MC has that charisma that really propels him with the fans.

Mvp's ability to defy all odds and win puts him in the same lofty heights though.

MVP disappeared when HoTS came out


I don't think you have any idea what you are talking about

Kudos to you for saying what everyone is thinking.
