It's getting a little bit annoying seeing MC all-inned every single game he plays, then people complain MC is incapable of doing anything but two base plays or scream that he's in a slump. Then they act cocky like they accomplished something with a build order win lulz.


That is a really poor way to describe DRG's hard-earned win. They have surely done their research on MC. Maybe you should reflect on your game analysis a little and realize that DRG simply punished excessively greedy play by MC.


these two statements don't contradict each other.

MC does get allined almost every game, and people do give him crap whatever he does, whether it's cheese, 2base play, macro, win or lose, whatever, it comes with being the top dog.

and he did get punished for excessively greedy play, it's how he lost almost the entirety of his recent matches where he was defeated.

DRG deserved his victory in full, actually there's very few cases where a win can be called unearned if you think about it.

the thing to note here is the BM was a bit over the top by both; doesn't warrant a rivalry though, drg made a splash this league, but there's been others like him in the two previous seasons who have yet to even make it into the GSL. despite the win today, both him and his team have a long way to go to prove themselves to get to the level of achevement and respect of MC and Ogs,

and Ogs needs to not send MC last when every opposing team is gonna have ~2 people who prepared nothing but a snipe build for him - a lesson i thought they had learned during the previous two seasons judging from yesterday's match.

Great the title alone spoiled the results for me...there would be no rivalry if oGs won that's obvious.

if MVP was ahead 3-0 and oGs would go 4-0 and BM all the way up.. it would help a rivalry...

LoL. No. I think running like 10 roaches and 20 lings that early in the game is the definition of allin. You are pretty much committed into killing the nexus or you will be behind.

'or you'll be behind' isn't all-in, 'or you're guaranteed to lose' is an all-in.

On DRG vs MC: I think it's more like MC reminding us a little bit of his Brood War career, where he had the nickname of "Suicide Toss" (after doing a "throat cutting" before a game he lost), rather than DongRaeGu getting itchy for a "rivalry".

On DongRaeGu's strategy: DongRaeGu can randomly make weird decisions in the game and execute them with a straight head. I remember him massing zerglings off of 13 drones against a 4 warpgate allin. Thing is, that ramp can't be protected that easily after a gas steal. And well, less than 20 drones, 2 bases, no tech, it's actually a semi-allin at the very least.

A "mediocre" zerg can beat top terrans as long as he doesn't make whereas "top" terrans do.

most of the time immature behaviour = fun when it comes to games, and playing for fun and the audience - screw maturity

"Punching the glass" "Pounding his fists on the booth"

ok I guess it may generate more replies from people who didn't see it, but you make it sound way worse than it was.

I must admit though I think that contact with the booth the players are in is a bit over the line. Dance around, wave flags, ass slap each other on the team but knocking on the booth the other payer is in is a bit too much.

Actual drama is just horrible and degrades the scene and community imo. It only generates hate.

But people have to understand that ceremonies in Korea aren't really "bad manner" and "drama". It's just ceremonial, all done in good fun. They do it for show, and everyone is aware of that.
