Hoping he can prove everyone wrong and show that his style can own a Protoss like MC. This series will show if July just benefited from lots of luck in his GSL run or if he can truly be seen as one of the most scary zergs in sc2. Even though MVP's slumping, I hardly think you can attribute him being taken out due to pure luck. One of July's biggest strengths is that he never over-produces drones, and knows exactly when his opponent's most vulnerable. He's gotten a lot better this season, and it shows. | ||

Yes I'm sure they said it as ''kind of a joke''. But when the ''joke'' is so universal it usually reflects reality in some way. I'm not saying P>Z as a race. But the fact that Z players are struggling more with the matchup with P players is a fact... Doesn't mean the matchup is imbalanced, just means that the Z still haven't figured everything out yet. Just as when everyone cried about the marauder (lol). It has received 0 changes yet no good player really seems to feel its ''OP'' anymore. Post like that.. ahhhhhhh lol. | ||

Cheesed his way to the final, and clearly isnt the second best player, so he will get slaughtered by MC  Balance doesnt even matter. If MC played zerg and July played protoss i'd still give the win to MC. So much better. Wtf? How can you compare July to Rain? His 3:2 series over NaDa, what was that, a fluke? Even though almost all of his wins were macro games? Rain is trash, and the only reason he's back in Code S is because he had the weakest Up/Down Group. July is a great player, but definitely not in the same league as MC and I still think MC will win, but don't pretend like all July can do is cheese. | ||

July tends to do split-second decisions that sometimes rip his opponents apart, sometimes make him lose the game. I'd just say zerg is at a severe disadvantage against MC's style of protoss. | ||

Just like you could make that comparison about some jobber in the forums making those kind of comments about some of the best players in NA? This is particularly amusing when the offender is TT1, whose only noteworthy accomplishment in Starcraft is hacking. And IdrA, who happens to be the best zerg outside of Korea, but I guess he clearly doesn't know anything either. Yeah, and TT1, who's only achievement is hacking...and placing second to the best foreigner Terran at the last big American LAN, and being top 5 in seeding for this season, and getting payed to play a game he loves. All fairly trivial accomplishments. I honestly can't believe this thread is still being a shitfest on TT1 and IdrA. Why do you want to know their opinions on the subject if you're just going to bash them? Particularly the people who are outraged on how the "lesser" IdrA would dare talk about someone supposedly better than he is (lol), and then in turn try to discredit him for his play? The irony is palpable. | ||

The irony is palpable. We're bashing them? Pretty sure they went and bashed one of the greatest zergs of all time without rhyme or reason. They were stupid comments of which they have no right to make. | ||
