I tried searching for anything about this but theres no threads about it in TL yet. If you haven't watched the finals, don't read below!

So MC tweeted

누가 영어로 해석해서 나를 욕하는 외국인에게 보여줬으면 좋겠다 화이트라는 5판연속같은빌드를 했고 난 그 빌드의 카운터빌드를 했을뿐인데 그걸 가지고 치즈라니 질럿 안뽑고 시작하니까 전진게이트를 하지... 천칠백만원짜리 게임인데 확신이있으니깐 한거고

난 프로니까 이기는 게임을 한것뿐 그리고 지금은 비행기가 늦어져서 터키에서 헉과 진로와 기다리는중.. ㅜㅜ 빨리 한국 가고싶어

재밌는 사실은 나랑 진로는 터키에 비자없이 들어왔는데 헉은 비자를 만들었다 쌩돈 20만원가량을 날린셈 ㅋㅋ 진로는 스웨덴에서 사기도 당하고 오늘 일진참 사나웠다

MC just tweeted:
I wish somebody to translate what I'm tweeting now for the foreign fans who are BM'ing me.
White-Ra kept using the same starting build 5 consecutive times, and I just couldn't help countering it. What's wrong with this? I did the proxy 'cause I knew White-ra wouldn't produce the first zealot at all. Do you really think I just gambled in the $15000 game? I was so confident about the proxy at that moment.

I only did the best to win the game since I'm a pro. BTW the airplane has been delayed and I've been waiting here Turkey with Jinro and Huk. TT I can't wait to return to my home country.

A funny thing is, Jinro and I came here without a Visa while Huk made one, which had Huk waste $200. lol. Jinro also was scammed in Sweden. What a bad day for them.


I think he has a point since he is a progamer and this is his life, he has to do what he has to do to win. Unfortunately white ra is like an idol to us 'foreigners' so we're a little rough when he loses to what we perceive as a very cheap win. I don't think he should feel sorry or mad at all, 15k was on the line :o
"What a terrible final. This is why BO3s are horrible. Seriously MKP vs Moon in a final and having it BO3 is like having Mila Kunis naked in your bed and all she'll give you is a HJ with her PJs on. Pffffffffffffffftt." -greatZERG

actually I think the thing to take away from this is that MC, knew that this would work and it wasn't a gamble. It was a strategic move.

A win is a win no matter how dirty it seems to be. With money on the line, especially that much money, you have to exploit every weakness your opponent has.

the people criticizing mc for using a winning strategy are just idiots and its really sad to me that there are enough of them that he even notices. it shouldn't even be a topic of discussion, and it wouldn't be if white-ra did it to mc instead of the reverse.

Im surprised people would be upset over what seemed to be a really strong mental game on MC's part. The way he explained it in the tweet just shows how he can read the game very well and adjust his playstyle to accommodate for BoX similarities. (white ra not making an early zealot)

Love to hear that he was confident. He may be taking the troll bait, but he's just making a simple statement, nothing more.

More curious about the "Jinro was cheated in Sweden" thing. Sounds like a crappy trip with all the logistical problems they've been mentioning. At least he got a hero's welcome though.

He just means he thinks Jinro deserved to go further and getting knocked out first round in a big tournament in your home country kind of sucks. At least... that's what I would assume.

The fact that white-ra does that all the time and MC is the only one that capitalizes on that only makes me respect him more.

People fail to realize that it wasn't a gamble 50/50 cheese. It was a very analyzed and calculated cheese.
A great player won, as he should have. And stupid people criticize and cry out and flame.

Well, flame on, MC still the best in the world.

I really don't like cocky people and I certainly don't find it interesting to watch MC play but he shouldn't be receiving all of this bs - MC won and was the better player. Get over it.

Haters gonna hate
I play random so I can blame my losses as being off-race... ;)
