That was just.... I wonder why cant we speak about balance problems?

Cause MC outplayed Flash the entire series


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.

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.

No he doesn't. I rooted for MC since the beatdown of Rain up until he left oGs, but most of his games are builds that he's fond of or just a random smattering of all-ins and macro.

Planning is what Jangbi did to Fantasy on the last OSL.

Proleague. Know its's a team tournament but he did really well + it's obviously a hard as hell tournament so.
Not any solo championships yet though

If he has, not one you wouldn't expect him two, Kongjwa seems to be the name of the game for the big three from BW.

He won the kespa exhibition :>

Yeah, but you can't really rate that.

I completely disagree. For example when HotS came out he pioneered oracle openings, while every other Protoss was playing WoL Protoss with Mothership Core.

i think if we learn anything from this tournament, then that we should stop calling "foreign koreans" or even foreigners straight up indefinitely and always worse than kespa koreans.



Start by traveling 16 straight hours, than try to play some starcraft games before opening your mouth.
foreign koreans are by far much worse than koreans.

Pretty sure MC doesn't live in Toronto either.


2-3 hour jet lag = 11-12 hour jetlag?

No idea where MC lives but if its europe than there's no real difference.


You clearly don't know how terrible 11-12 hour jetlag actually can be.


Flying to the US from Europe isn't an issue, the flight back to europe gives you way more jetlag generally.

I think the only thing he's one is that exhibition tournament of all BW pros when they first switched

Can't really rate it, that was like all the KeSPA pro's interpretation of the Meta within their own little isolated circle.

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


The experience talked a lot in that game. You could see Flash didn't know how MC could be back like that. That was really impressive from MC

MC also really adapted to what Flash did with the 3 barracks style, while Flash didn't really seem prepared for MC's crazy style.

This. I'm a huge Terran fanboy, but some of these comments are ridiculous. MC played very well in game 1 especially.

I dont think he innovated anything. We've seen all these builds befor. Hell g1 was th build MC used against Thorzain in TSL. But the series planning by MC was great. The decisions were great. Flash had only dropped maps to Zest in the past 2 months in TvP.
