Far and above, Night Elf and Undead are the two most popular Korean races at the top level of WC3, so it's good to have people who matchup well against them. However, it's good to save the players who matchup well versus Human and Orc for the occasions where someone will throw one out at you.
| An ideal team would be to have at least 1 solid player of each race, and have specialists for each map and matchup. |
World Elite has had such success with
InFi and
Sky - there just aren't many people specialized for taking down Human. Similarly this is why Focus was so important for MYMs run – his Orc mirror has been top notch in a field of many Orc players, such as Grubby and Lyn, who have struggled with this matchup.An ideal team would be to have at least 1 solid player of each race, and have specialists for each map and matchup. Note this does not mean that having more than 1 of each race is a bad thing, as long as they are diverse in their strengths and weaknesses.
In the case of MYM, they currently have
Grubby,
Moon ,
Lucifer and
Susiria.
Grubby plays well versus most races, with an unusually strong matchup versus Elf for an Orc player, but he isn’t the best at Orc mirror. Moon is great versus Human and Orc, but has had some troubles with Undead and Mirror, especially lately (Recent losses to Space and Xlord). Lucifer has probably the best Orc matchup for an Undead player (recenty displaying this in a huge win over Lyn) and is solid in all matchups, and Susiria is an excellent mirror player and plays well versus Elf.
The only thing lacking is
Storm, who is available, but not in the shape he once was – being one of the best Human mirror players in the world, a matchup where many Human struggle. In WC3L Season 9, Storm took down ToD and Sky multiple times throughout the offline finals. He would be great to take down players like Sky and InFi. Recently though, MYM has used him in NGL and WC3L - perhaps hoping to light a spark under him.
Storm was an important part of MYM's Season 9 WC3L Championship
Equally important to note is that players such as Grubby and Lucifer have unusually strong matchups where traditionally their race has struggled, Grubby versus Night Elf and Lucifer versus Orc. This can help to stop what would normally be a nearly guaranteed point, in the case of an Orc versus Undead on Lost Temple or an Elf versus an Orc on Turtle Rock.

again i have to disagree with you, FoV have the overall best play against orcs. overall that is, lucifer have rarely pulled big vs orc wins, except now vs Lyn, which he have lsot to many times before. and hehave yet to beat grubby ina official game.

Id have to say that a Moon in shape has no bad matchups, and one of his strongest is perhaps vs. Ud. The reason for his recent losses does not have to do with matcup but rather him being in a period of not playing as much and not keeping up his ideal shape, which has to be very tirering :)
About Luci's strenght vs. Orc I'd say it is somewhat true. When he is in his best shape he is nearly unstoppable vs. all races though, and him and FoV have been neck to neck on who has been the best Ud's vs. Orc and NE. I think it is hard to say that pla I line up my hair perfectly!

Infact we are not searching for mirrors for Moon but rather trying to get him vs. the best pla
And Moon is infact rivaling Soju in being the best NE vs. Ud pla I line up my hair perfectly!
