MC did well to win, and I commend him on that. Fully respect his decision to cheese, he does have to play for himself as well.

I just don't see what he means by how he (a korean) was able to get into Sweden without a visa. Maybe he meant to say that he got a Visa-on-Arrival...

I think everyone in this thread is saying a lot of the same thing:

MC, we love watching you play, and you never have to make excuses to us. We'll always be fans.

So how about this. How about we tweet this to him, or post it on his facebook page, or make Cheerfuls for him. Let's show him that foreigners like us support him, and that this flak he's getting is the minority.

I'll start: http://twitter.com/tzenes/status/58709753530036224

Most people that day wanted White-Ra to win, I mean come on, he is one of the nicest guys and a great player, being up 2-0 against MC especially, so we were upset win he lost, albeit by cheese but it was clearly a well thought out strategy. I have to admit, even I was upset that he lost in that way, but that is only because of White-Ra losing, not because of MC's strategies. He clearly deserved the win at the end of the day. Looking forward to DH summer now and MC showing the foreign trolls whats what!!

Most of the BM comes from the incessant, cesspool that is the live report threads. The people who BM about "cheese" and "cheap wins" live their lives on LR threads, pro player stream chats, and bnet forums; they are ignorant about what is on the line in these tournaments, whether a strategy is really a coin flip guess, or an educated decision.

Grats to MC.
Remember not only to say the right thing in the right place, but far more difficult still, to leave unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting moment.

Indeed, it seems people have forgotten that MC 3-0'd White-Ra in the TSL3. Thank you come again.

Personally I could care less about the proxy...He did what he needed to to win. We can't blame him for that.

I will say though, maybe the reason so many people are hating on MC has less to do with his play and more to do with his attitude?

Where I come from someone who talks like that is practically asking to get their ass kicked.

why is there so much of this silly hate either way? mc played to win, but used builds that are hardly skill showcasing or entertaining to watch to get there and so he got flamed for it. add in the idiots who will/have come to baseless conclusions on mc and you get your standard predictable community reaction.

Is he seriously butthurt about a little fanboyism, getting some dirt thrown in his direction after a series like that? Really? MC? Someone give the guy a hug.

Ill be sure to send a napkin and a damp towel for Jaedong next time he 4pools and wins with it. Poor guy might need therapy after all the internet whining? I had no idea being a progamer was such a chore at times.


except when Jaedong 4 pools,

we don't see a swarm of foreigners spouting out that Jaedong has no skill and cheese is the only way Jaedong can win.

are you implying MC is not supposed to get hurt? we've known that he's been trying to connect to his foreign fans more and many progamers (JD incl.) derive a lot of social support and confidence from their fans. perhaps not twittering about this would have been more professional but don't write as if you know what it feels like to have a sizeable foreign community de-legitimizing your talent and skills to cheese.

if you actually had something you cared about (not that i'm saying you do) and actually spent so much effort and time to finally achieve something worth being proud about, but the public ascribes your achievement to random chance and no talent/skill whatsoever, yeah i'm sure you won't feel too bad.....right

on another note, MC should use this as motivation to get even better. the only way to shut up foreign trolls is to continue beating foreigners for an extended period of time so that eventually, even the foreign trolls will have no choice but to shut the fuck up.


I feel the exact same way. Previously (I'm thinking BW but I could be wrong), if foreign fans raged as much as what happened this time, most Korean progamer would not have responded because 1) they don't know about the foreign community or 2) their focus is on the Korean fans. MC is reaching out to the foreign community by giving a response to these people. Other than interviews, how often did we get to interact with a progamer like this? This issue is probably important for him as well since he's good friends with a lot of foreign progames like Jinro and the rest of TL. Even if you don't like his style, you at least have to respect his answer and his effort to communicate with the fans.

No need to apologize MC, You're the best and ppl keep forgetting that you are not only good at early agression, but also amazing at macro, so who cares if theres a proxy gate. who the hell here wouldnt do the same when noticing weaknesses like the skipping zealot or the gateway scout to win this tournament.

No, these haters are cowards of the worst kind.

They should just come out and say it, and stop making elaborate bs reasons to hate on MC.

They don't like MC because he's Korean and he beat their beloved "foreigner"

That's all it is. Reverse the roles, if White ra won while being down 0-2, these haters would be jumping for joy and praising white ra for his amazing ballsy play.

He won against White-Ra.


Big deal? White-Ra deserved to lose. He played greedily every game, going up to near 30 probes against Mc's 20.


He was being sarcastic/exaggeratory


Missed that. Can be hard sometimes to catch sarcasm on the computer.

he won fair and square in a series game. Its white-ra´s loss he played the same way and that is a big disadvantage in series games. Cheese or no cheese its strategy guys. Im sad about white-ra but MC is right.

JD actually quit twitter, because of fans heckling him for his poor (relative) performances a few months ago. Koreans are just sensitive to their public image, MC included. Not surprised that he would tweet about this bullshit.

Ra getting 3-0'd in the TSL (when both played in Korea) doesn't count, right?

I like both MC and White-Ra. What MC did was very smart, in a series of more than 1 game, reading your opponent and adapting your play to his weaknesses. I mean, anyone can cheese 1 game vs someone and win, but MC had a clear reason for what he did and it was strategically sound. One of the things that makes a good player is being unpredictable, so kudos to him.

There has never been anything wrong with cheesing a game in a series. Even since Broodwar top progamers would still sometimes cheese in a set and nobody ever complained. MC saw a glaring opening in White-Ra's play and knew a proxy gate would win. There is seriously nothing shameful in his decision. Haters... calm down, geez.
