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.


If they have to play within that period then maybe whine at the team in question instead of conjuring nonsense excuses?


Was just stating the reality of the situation playing global tournaments, how is that nonsense? Homefield advantages are a real thing in any sport.


Mc had 7 hours of Jetlag at least too

Flash, I think, is one of those Korean pros, kinda like CJ Trust, who doesn't know what the meta is like or what the builds are outside of Korea. That's why Trust got smashed so hard by Violet in Red Bull. He had only played lower-end foreigners and in-Korea Koreans, so he didn't know what the higher-end players outside of Korea were doing or how to counter it.
The world is better when every background has a chance.

How come Flash is so bad at playing against cheese? It's like he's completely clueless as to what is happening...?

And how would you scout what MC did?

What if flash scouted out the location of the proxy stargate, and attack that instead of going to MC's main? That would require a smaller commitment of units and thus able to leave behind more marines in defense against void rays or more oracles.

Flash would then have a smaller lead compared to killing probes at the nexus, but that's better than risking being killed by voidray backstab.

But given the fact that MC killed quite a few probes with dual oracles, maybe Flash would not be ahead without killing probes. Your thoughts?


Yeah, just guess where the fuck on the map the Stargate is. And a small force wouldn't be enough against 2 oracles and whatever comes out of the Starport next.


Flash would know there was a proxy if he had scouted the number of pylons in base and immediately started scouting map with an scv.

Sure they are, yet if jetlag is a significant factor then it can be easily solved by earlier flights. Thus your ire should be directed at teams for directly creating conditions in which their players suffer ill effects, no?

But warpgate mechanic totally negates the homefield advantage of other races!

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.

Correct me if I'm wrong but wasn't the nickname Game Genie Terran supposed to be that MVP has units 'hacked' in, refering to his impeccable macro.
Life has won two GSLs and a Blizzard Cup. NOT three GSLs.
