The question is a bit dated - but my take on MVP vs. zergs is two fold.

1) MVP was playing well in general - he used a large variety of different builds and timing attacks to keep his opponents always guessing making it harder for any given player to 'blind counter'

2) When mvp did standard marine tank - he had excellent spread/high tank count and the most evident difference between what he was doing and other terrans was he had a lot of medivacs. Most of the battles seemed to boil down to ling/muta vs. marine/medivac where the marines w/ upgrades supported by the medivacs tended to come out on the top and the tanks were used primarily to just take out the banelings.

Definitely worth watching. A lot of good action and plays.

anyone else think he'd be ideal on a triple cast with day9 and djwheat?

wheat: best host on sc2 casting
day; most passionate caster in a "day9 made you do it" gorgeous teddybear style
q most passionate caster with the greatest marlowe "parley" ever for a video game (he could literally tell u your game sucks ass, and you'd be fie with it.. so much focus!

3 rhythms + Show Spoiler +

(my favorite would still remain q's)

complementing each other... they could cast an entire bracket without a sweat+ Show Spoiler +

(well if sponsors keep company, food and beverages coming at a reasonable rate)

+ Show Spoiler +

I'd add iNcontrol and idrA but we'd all be entering into boner territory/history, yes boner..even for you gals out there

edit: friggin typos

Nay, the one on the right doesn't look like he would scan the island.

If the spam messages don't bother you, it definitely bothers us as viewers. Because most of the messages are just senseless crap, GO BUSY BRO!

Though I must admit, the best troll message to QXC was a couple of days back someone asking qxc "Hey qxc, how many pickles do you think can fit into your mouth?" LOL

Meh, the messages may bother some of you, but I personally would be most worried if they bother qxc. As he clearly stated, they do not, so we don't have to worry about that. I just would like to say that the people trolling him by going "SCAN THE ISLAND", and the GSL shit... just quit it. It's seriously not funny whatsoever.

The guy talking about why not to 3 Rax open, now that is good messages to be discussing; informs the community, and makes qxc make a smileyface from teaaching us

[ Insert smiley face here: :3 ]
