MC doesn't get enough credit for his Macro game, he can macro well(Obviously not the best but still high level macro) he is just better at micro so he puts himself in a situation to use his strengths.
If he was as bad as some people say he is, his cheese wouldn't work and he would have retired long ago and won very little money.
People tuned out after game 3 against MMA in WCS EU finals, he played really well in macro games after that.

Are you disappointed that Scarlett ruined it for you AFTER saying she'd do that.

I generally don't like seeing him win with his cheese mostly because he always beat players I love, but I do think the whole "MC sucks because all in" argument is just utter stupidity.

My favorite sc2 toss vs a liquid player. This is tough. My heart says MC but my heart says Taeja.
Your heart seems confused

Its just some weird caricature that has rooted into people's minds and then they are shocked when MC smashes MMA in a macro game.

If he would stop winning thousands of dollars by cheesing for entire series at a time, we might lose this idea. However, see previous discussion re: MC loves money.

Most people like MC, if not for his playstyle then they are at least fond of him as a person. It's not bitching about him it's bitching about Protoss, least how I see it.

any word on the length of the break before finals?

If you're not bitching about Protoss, why are you even playing SC2, friend? Gotta keep up with the meta.

Ooooh no third place match this time ? D:
Not that I'm a fan of third place matches but I was expecting a nice TvZ between Dayshi and Scarlett.

Get to Twitter folks, perhaps the best foreign exponents of the matchup facing off, would be awesome

MC's style is all about winning at whatever means necessary and people have to realize these guys are fighting for money not just for fun. MC is comfortable in a long macro game but he does seem to prefer all-ins, timing attacks and two base pressures and his opponents need to make better reads on him.
