I guess it's close to impossible to not drop a map as terran. Maybe now that he would have won as much titles as NesTea and that he keeps destroying him everytimes they met (I mean in official matches, of course in practice he wins a lot  ) people would realize that NesTea isn't the best player in the world? | ||

Doesn't matter if MVP wins 3 more GSL titles. Honestly, MVP and Bomber are just "Terrans" nowadays in the eyes of many - they just see the "Terran" first, and the player isn't even factored in unless he plays a super conservative macro game and doesn't push out until 200/200, and makes units from all three tech trees, with a majority of them being T3 units (read, battlecruisers). lol /(half)jk The half-kidding aside, the LR thread was fucking painful to read. Anyways, great play from MVP today. | ||

Don't go infestor/broodlord after seeing like 13+ ghosts on the field. Muta/ling/bling works well enough. Just because you got the tech, doesn't mean you have to use it. 3. Keep your expansions alive. 4. Deny the terran expansions. Remember July's 200/200 bust at MVP's natural? If he had done that at his 3rd (orbital btw) and killed it, the game would've looked completely different. | ||

MVP is the heavy favorite for sure, but I'm willing to bet that this finals will be closer in score than recent ones (akin to perhaps the GSL WC finals, where MVP beat MKP 4-2). | ||

I saw nothing from TOP's play yesterday that would indicate he has a chance against MVP unless his mech vs mech is significantly better than his mech vs bio. Great macro yes, but TOP's games suffered from tank lines spread too thin, exposed siege tanks, overextending attacks, missed timings and most noticeably poor multitasking. MVP will study TOP's games diligently and pick him apart. | ||

MVP will study TOP's games diligently and pick him apart. The TOP vs. Alive games in the group stages were interesting. The first game, TOP lost by not making ravens against Alive's marauder heavy composition, but won the second game with a nice tank contain and great defense against BFH. And honestly, other than the poor multi-tasking, I didn't really see those other problems in TOP's games; at the very least, overextending and missed timings have as much to do with Polt than anything else, since his sporadic tempo-based play forces those errors and missed opportunities. | ||

When Polt played keen, it was amazing so to see him play MVP would be the next best thing. edit: mvp wins 4-0, or 4-1 Imo, MVP would just 4-0 polt if polt would get to the finals. Polt does a style that relies on mech to make a mistake. MVP almost never makes mistakes in TvT. This should be a pretty good finals for TvT lovers. | ||
