Game 1 - Cloud Kingdom - MKP opens up standard, CC first into 3CC, Goswser does a 6roach poke, nothing really lost or gained. goswser uses overlord creep spread+queen to block MKPs natural 3rd and 4th base, delaying MKPs 3rd by about 3 minutes as he was across the map, this wouldn't have factored in as much since goswser 3rd was very late, however MKP got 2 midgame armies covered in 1 fungal, and then he just struggled to hold on and eventually loses to ultralisk.
Game 2 - Antiga - MKP opens up CC first into reactor hellion into 3rax, goswser goes 3hatch with only roach/spore crawler defense, expecting hellion/banshee, but MKP has marauders/marines and hellions and just outmicros goswser and wins.
Game 3 - Ohana - 2rax opening, MKP gets a good bunker up near the ramp, forcing 12 lings and drone pull, he would be ahead at this point but he pulled 7 scvs earlier and sent them back once they reached 1/3 of the way to goswser base, evening it up.
MKP then goes 2fact reactor/techlab, double armory and 3CC, and dies to the standard roach/ling/bane all in.
Game 1 I felt was just his army getting caught twice, if he had that he would have been able win, since he was even supply all throughout because of his economic lead.
And in game 3 is just a build order win, greed vs all in.

I think that TaKe needs to make sure MKP is in groups without zergs, so the viewer count stays up for 2 reasons.. terran and MKP

I'm actually really wondering one think in TvZ atm.. if you've seen Flash vs zerg, he has gone for a ebay first blcok at the natural of the zerg, and the end result of it is that he starts his CC after barracks at the same time as the zerg natural.
I wonder how that works out.

I wonder how come MKP especially is struggling so much in TvZ :/ he was looking so good early 2012 and his TvT and TvP are still really good..

Everybody is struggling in TvZ, mang. He'll get better at it though, just going through a rough patch

:DD
He advanced in second place, 2-0'ing goswser in the final match
he will play MC tomorrow for a spot in the finals vs Dimaga/Stephano

YESSS, Goswser can't repeat his success and loses 2-0 to our King!

Have been going through a rough patch for pretty long, while many pro players have been doing just fine against zerg (look at polt, flash etc.) I've been watching prime tv time to time and almost all games i saw mkp playing against tvz he just struggled so much. like not making any vikings and caught offguard by like just a couple of broodlords. I'm not necessary saying that MKP is the only player struggling but its just sad to see him like underdog in every TvZ series :/
On bright side he beat Goswser in rematch and will play against MC tomorrow gogo mkp!

well, before the last patch, we had major tournaments (the ones where the terran participation was reasonable enough to make the stats valid) mostly with 30-40% for Terran in TvZ, wether MKP played in there or not. So yes, generally Terrans were struggling heavily in the matchup. But for MKP, he oftentimes loses very easy, as I stated yesterday. I think it may be because he feels generally uncomfortable in the matchup. I hope he can get some new hope with the recent patch. He needs to put more thought into his play in TvZ, then he will be back on top.

Yeah, now you mentioned it. It was really strange :o I remember when he was on top of the world beating everyone and would not give a fuck about templars and just split his marines and marauders. That time i was struggling so much in TvP because i tried to copy MKPs play, needless to say it didn't go really well :D.
Good to see him preparing for colossus and templar tech beforehand ^^
