Dreamhack and GSL put to shame anything we in the US can do hands down. Makes me sad and happy at the same time.

This pretty much.
But give credit to white-ra.Dropping down that nexus in game 2 was equally ballsy in my opinion.

White-ra forgets they make Shakuras x-position only, fail. White-ra doesn't scout to be safe, fail. At MLG Day[9] pointed out how safe Naniwa was when he played, he scouts every inch of his base for proxy/cheese. MC made a CALCULATED risk, that White-ra wouldn't scout, it paid off and he won easily. That is no reason to disrespect MC, it was smart of him to play that build in that situation. You scrubs that are complaining about "lol cheese" should seriously get temp banned or warned, it's just as bad as whining about imbalances. It's his own fault that he lost. If he scouted that 2 gate proxy the game would be over.

I mean seriously, in each major tournament we have seen toss finals, mostly PvP, sometimes PvT.. Do people seriously believe that all zerg players just suck?

Gratz to MC - as a professional, he needs to play the easiest to win race, I would have done the same thing


Yeah, last GSL finals were obviously a PvP or PvT...

Also I tend to forget, what about the GSL right before that?

TvT...


Remember me the GSL WC's final too please? Oh, right...

even if the finals of some tournaments are protosses doesn't mean the game is imbalanced. and no, people don't think zerg players suck. there are lots of great zergs out there who can beat protosses.

when terran wins they're imba, when protoss wins they're imba, when zerg wins they're imba. also as far as I know, in korea vs the world it wasn't a PvT nor a PvP. it was a TvT.

anyway, those first two games clearly showed that MC can be broken. though the fourth game white-ra really messed up with two stalkers and a mis micro-ed forcefield. though i have to give it to mc who had a great comeback especially the last game. many people might think its cheese but it was very well executed specially given the openings white-ra used for all the games where identical.

either way, great job to these two players. hoping to see more of these two soon.

That was a very disappointing final game. It was a good call on MC's part but I really wish White-ra had spotted it and defended.
White-ra on if he had special tactics prepared: "Yeah, macro game tactics, skill game. but my opponent all ins" /shrug.

You'll get him next time Ra!

I was so sure he would lose that game 2... Maybe someday some-one will make somekind of forge opening for Protoss that neglects 4gate and more probes means more power! Like we did see right here in these games, MC had almost 10 probes less in all games.

They both had balls on those games! No questions about that!
