The best part of the godfather analogy I was thinking of: Fantasy drives up to a toll booth, and gets ambushed by a dozen hold-lurkers that repeatedly spike him to death. (funny because it happens regularly)
AdministratorHey HP can you redo everything youve ever done because i have a small complaint?

Really enjoyed the bios this time.

I still hope the finals will be fantastic (but I'm still a doubter at this point on GSL finals).
the farm ends here

Although I loved MMA's play lately... I'll stay loyal to the MKP fan club. : D
I just hope there isn't many one-sided games in the finals or that would be disappointing. ~

Polt was right about luck

Hahaha i think it will take this finals victory for people to 100% take Polt seriously.

I will be rooting for MMA, but if Polt wins it would be an epic story.

As John said; please, whatever happens - PLEASE GIVE US GOOD GAMES!

One base blue-flame expand seemed to be the most popular way to setup a mech transition.

And as long as we're talking about mech... let's talk about mech.

Mech was surprisingly popular this tournament, though it didn't clear a 50% win rate. Besides MMA, none of the "top" terran players used this strategy. These elite players seemed more than happy to pick apart mech's weaknesses with a mobile marauder-medivac force. The problem with mech, for being so goddamn powerful when it's actually set, is that it gets totally, absolutely obliterated by marauders when it's not. It seemed that the best players with tip-top mechanics were always on top of when and where their opponents' tanks were sieged, and reacted to mistakes very quickly.

Against those players, you couldn't just unsiege half your army, move a screen away and re-siege. You had to siege un-siege, siege un-siege leapfrog your tanks the entire distance, or else 8 marauders were going to kill two exposed tanks and leave. And when that was forced upon mech, it became even MORE agonizingly slow.

Still worth it, for the ability to kill your enemy's army in a single volley.


Maybe you are only talking about the top terrans here, but Ganzi used Mech in all 3 (or 2?) of his matches against MVP, and beat him.

Polt will go up 3-0, then MMA will comeback and win 4-3.

if it isnt you'll have to bill the MKPvsMMA series as the real final.

It's sad because this is the first time that the title is going to go to someone who isn't the best player in the world.
