Perhaps it might be your internet, I'm getting the ads just fine and I'm not experiencing any lag.

I always have a browser on with low quality and muted, but if you watch with ads, I especially hate how they seem to lag your entire stream AND are much higher in sound. I mean, I don't need the entire building to hear about some random ad...

One could say, based upon these games, MC seems to really understand PvP and is a toplevel player in that matchup.

I think Mc understands how to play a series better than just about anyone more than anything


I dunno. There was this dude called Mvp.

Hence the "just about" :p

That was straight up PvP. Not doing this would be pretty weird, seeing how well it works.


By straight up I meant based on skill, not a roll of the dice.


Games like this are highly skill-based even if you don't enjoy watching them.


How are they skill based? You mean skillbased like RPS?


I mean like a game where you don't win unless you play your cards right - that includes staying on top of micro and decision making, because the match-up lies on a razors edge. The idea that PvP is all about luck is ridiculous and the people that think MC lucked his way to two wins in a row simply don't know the game well enough. If these games weren't skill-based, any GM player would have been able to beat Stardust twice, and that's really not the case.

No it's the ads themselves. They come from some shit server in Canada, and the ad itself tries to load multiple videos at the same time as sort of a multilayed ad. I've messaged twitch about it multiple times, but it's not like they give a shit.

PvP is a very hard matchup to grasp. There's a lot of metagaming, tiny windows, high potential for risks and aggression. It's a very tough matchup to enjoy if you don't understand what is going on.
An ofcourse, the tech choice is usually blind, which sometimes causes silly shit, but mostly, if you look very carefully, not a single player randomly pulls the killswitch in a normal game - there's always a sign of weakness.

Hallucination scout and MSC/Stalkers give enough information to not die to a tech. Stop with the blind hate dude.
