The drama began when MVPDongRaeGu sniped oGsNaDa. TheWind sent in a Terran (SuperNoVa) to take care of the Zerg who killed both NaDa and MarineKingPrime. After picking SuperNoVa apart, DongRaeGu celebrated with his team, and went over to the oGs bench; there he talked some smack and, with a flick of his wrist, dismissed the oGs team and their choice to face him.



At this point, the series was 3-2 in favor of MVP, so the natural choice was MC. When it was time to go, MC didn't waste any time; he swiftly got up, walked over to DongRaeGu's booth, and punched the glass, startling the Zerg, and showing how acceptable his little bm action was. During the game, MC 1gate FEs and techs to a Stargate on Crevasse to his pocket expansion, and DongRaeGu breaks MC with the 2-base roach/ling all-in style NesTea showcased in the Code S finals against InCa. By the time MC's two Voids clean up all the lings (who danced a couple of times before getting killed off), MC has only 1 probe, no nexus, and about 100 minerals. He taps out.



DongRaeGu expresses his happiness by exiting his booth and pounding his fists on the glass of MC's booth, wherein Min Chul sat, shocked and distressed at his loss.



I think the little exchanges of BM is enough to put a blip on oGs' radar, to say the least. MC, certainly, is going to love a chance to get revenge on the impudent liddle Zerg that all-inned him then danced lings in his base. I hope these guys meet in future matches, because, hey, rivalries can be good for the game.

Then they act cocky like they accomplished something with a build order win lulz.

MC played very greedy and got punished. all MC had in his base was 2 sentries and 2 zealots. of course he's gonna lose to ~10 roaches and ~20 zerglings.

I agree that he played greedy and got punished BUT that was clearly an allin. If he didnt kill MC outright or deal decent amount of damage. He would be having 19 drones off two base and no lair tech.. Its an allin. I agree that he played greedy and got punished BUT that was clearly an allin.

Talin Profile Blog Joined September 2010 Montenegro 9071 Posts #8 I don't think these kinds of ceremonies are enough for a rivalry, really.



It would have been much more interesting to see SlayerS and IM rivalry develop as I see a potential long-term rivalry in team leagues between the two. Shame IM didn't make it this time though. =(

then all he does is drone up for the next 5 minutes. MC has no army. yes of course he would have been behind but he wouldn't have downright lost the moment the attack failed. then all he does is drone up for the next 5 minutes.

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. That is a really poor way to describe DRG's hard-earned win.

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.



No denying that MC just chose a bad build to play against roach ling allins on that build. But after defending bombers marine scv allin he must have been pretty confident in his micro. LoL.

Kipsate Profile Blog Joined July 2010 Netherlands 29619 Posts #15 There is no need to get upset on an allin either way



DRG denied the scout, and he knows that in a long game it COULD be hard to face MC



So you go All-in, not to mention that you ALSO in the case that you lose you still have someone else in your team who could perhaps take on MC.



In this map, MC is known for expanding quickly on this map, frankly anyone does with that free expo pretty much.



It was a well thought out risk/reward, he took it, MC lost.



This is not the GSL, this isn't a BoX, this is the Teamleague, contrary to popular belief appearently, they are not NEARLY the same in both games, atittude and strategy.



the map also tailors well to this build, the fact that you can take down the rocks to open a much wider choke.



GG, well played? Writer Xiao8~~

People can chose to watch ceremonies or not, but it's hard to ignore someone assaulting your pod. I hope GOM makes a statement regarding this. Eagerly awaiting Techies.
