Wow that was definitely the best SC2 related ad I've ever seen, not super awkward like Incontrol's old one and Rotterdam's one they also showed, Intel knows how to handle things properly

I am so happy right now, reading this thread.

Welcome to LRs, is this your first time?

I'm still relatively new here, but even I recognize the stupidity of many of these statements. People either don't understand how good MC is or either just don't care (i.e. they're stupid).

I'm a huge Flash fan, but how was MC supposed to play? Flash has been murdering Protoss all month, he pulled out the unexpected and won with it. Give him credit, he's won a great deal of money playing this game.

I think he just said that the build he did was genius. Maybe he said that he got the build form Genius tho.

Blind guessed in game 3, lost to a gamble in game 2, how is this out played?


One guy spent his week studying and making a battle plan to take out his opponent. The other guy played as normal.

The implication that MC planned almost any of that is hilarious. I know you've watched MC before and we both know that is exactly how he always plays. Literally always. Ever since GSL season 3. Seriously.

G2 and G3 were so obviously intricately planned, not just some random crap.

He would've done the same thing no matter which terran it could possibly be. That's hardly planning for an opponent.

MC IS A GOD.Flash goes 86%in games in 2 months. MC takes 1 week and literally solves Flash in a bo3.


proxy oracle 2 games in a row trying to cheese him out is not exactly "solves flash"... rofl.
MC killed him because he has better micro than a lot of other P players and his oracles / air units did a lot of damage.
There's nothing particularly "fancy" he did or figure out, other than some well executed cheese.


oracle is pretty standard. But MC knows Flash's move out aggro timings. Something no other Toss that played Flash used. MC made the right decisions that Flash didn't do.

MC exactly explained his thought process afterwards, people still believe in god.

Such a pathetic game. Hide a stargate in a random map place, win the game. So sad and also a testament of 0 skill needed to play protoss.


Keep them tears coming.

I'm a huge Flash fan but still find the bitching funny.


I like Flash too and want him to do well. But the damn Protoss hate needs to be eradicated. And MC is the fucking BossToss who can beat fucking anybody if he plays on point.

User was warned for this post


You must have missed when MC out macroed Flash with better deciosns and micro in g1.

the game where flash got 50 supply ahead through macro alone?


Macro isnt just about making units. Its about making the right unit compositions, right tech and right economic decisions.


Well i wouldn't call that outplayed in macro. Flash could have won that game if he hadn't overcommit so much. MC capitalized through every mistake flash made.

He did not miss a single mistake to get.

that's really impressive for MC.


Yea, MC was just smarter than Flash

yep. since GSL open season 3 he always studies his opponennts and tailors the builds he uses against them for them specifically. MC is, just as MVP was, a tactical genie, who makes up for his lack in macro with superior strategizing and decision making.

I was being a bit hyperbolic, I am generally familiar with KelsierSC, but anything in an LR should be taken with a grain of salt.

It's a Void Ray build. Of course Genius had a hand in it.
