...no votes for Baby? wtf. I mean, yeah effort won both his games, but it's not like he was critical to their lineup. Both matches were 3-0s, and CJ is just so fucking stacked that anyone could have gone out instead of him and it would have been the same result. Meanwhile Baby won the only game for Team 8 on the opening day, and was clutch against KT when the score was 2-2.
Oh well. Grats to effort for still putting up a good performance after being gone for so long. REPENT SINNER THE MESSIAH HAS RETURNED!! /lol In all seriousness, I think its mainly the shock and awe factor. Although EffOrt's opponents so far haven't been top-class, its still impressive to see someone who took a year-long break come back and still be playing at such a high level. EDIT: Just realized that EffOrt is the Messiah and Flash is God.. but EffOrt is the Flash-killer...
He's been practicing at the CJ house since March. Flash's comeback from the surgery is far more impressive.

Baby was so more clutch than effort
|
the messiah??? does that mean he is our...  sAviOr???
|
I personally would have given it to...
not sure, actually. Baby's a good candidate but the team went 1-1. firebathero I think would have been my pick.
Anyway, EffOrt deserves it - 2-0 is a big deal.

Team 8 going 1-1 isn't Baby's fault and ACE went 1-1 too though. And Baby went 2-0 as well
I agree with several people that Baby should have gotten it

I think that Baby should have gotten it. He really came in clutch in that last game, but at the same time, it is Effort after all...
|
Baby didn't get any votes!? His games were so interesting.

Must be the hair, Baby shouldve gotten it for his clutch efforts! Effort has enough limelight.
|
Yeah, baby really should have gotten the votes rather than jaedong, this coming from a JD fan
but i don't think that this week's MVP is any real testament to skill, we haven't seen any real star-studded matchups (no ace match... =/) thus far, but here's hoping!
|
Good Job effort.
Effort's 1st game was ok. I liked the 2nd game a lot more. CJ just needs to keep on winning
|
Gz to Effort,what I don't understand is why did Jaedong get so many votes lol.
Nothing against Jaedong btw just wasn't even close to the most impressive players the past week.
|
It's a bit odd to do it weekly, since there are 6 games in a week. Only 4 of the 8 teams played twice, so the one-game team players stood no chance (although Stork and Best still got 1 vote each). A reward like this is better served only when there is parity among players.
But, never mind that. Congrats to the Alien, Effort! In 2010 - 2011, only Jaedong, Effort, and JangBi have defeated Flash in a BoX series. We need him in tip-top-shape for more competition.

I feel like baby deserves it more, but meh. Winning 2 games after year long retirement is impressive.
|
There's such a small volume of games being played that Weekly MVP actually generates discussion.
|
Why did Jaedong get 3 votes while baby got no votes? Super weird.

I guess I look at Baby's wins: he may have won in style, but he beat soO in TvZ (which soO is bad at) and Wooki, who's been impressive on the whole but is still new.
EffOrt meanwhile made hyvaa look silly (granted hyvaa's ZvZ isn't any better than soO's TvZ) and was doing the same to Iris before he made life difficult for himself by screwing around with queens.
I admit I'm biased: I don't particularly like EffOrt but there's no question he's brilliant, while Baby I still regard as a bit of a fraud at least if we're proposing he's a real top player. He's good, but has never convinced me he has "it". Mainly this is because I'm a huge fan of Mind, who has been practically as good as BaBy since the start of last year's season, but even Mind has never quite been "S class" in the last few years.
I suppose in the literal sense, a set five win on a shallow team is more valuable than merely setting the tone for a 3-0 beatdown which the team would probably win anyway. On the other hand, if Tyson comes out vs Wooki instead of Baby I expect him to win too.
