MMA and MVP are very close in terms of skill, but MMA has three advances here: 1. he is more prepared, 2. MVP stated himself that is very tired and exhausted and he was more impatient against Polt as he usually is (mistakes like these can cost him everything against MMA) and 3. Fionn's prediction =)

That was 7 probes, not 6. Nani only had 6!!!

Anyway great write up. Hope you're wrong on both prediction cuz I want a Protoss to finally win something again in a GSL.

Hmmmm... I love HerO's PvZ, make no mistake. But I don't think it's the future of the matchup, or a bread and butter tactic for every protoss to learn and use. MC doesn't use them and can win games. If the game is suitable, he can also go to a macro game and outmacro any other protoss easily.

I'd too like to see some variance and creativity in MC's play, but it has to come from something that suits his style. And the heavy harass WP play doesn't fit in MC's hands imo, at least right now.

MVP looking as invincible as ever, the winner of the Terran series to take the whole thing for me, but I just hope DRG advances. I believe it would be an incredible TvZ final, possibly the two best players at that match-up. It could potentially be the greatest final we've seen in SC2 so far, and it couldn't be more fitting.

I hope MC wins the whole tourney, would be funny if he won when he was predicted to come last in the group and lose all his bracket matches

Nicely written! Looking forward to it so much! It is also very cool to see all 3 races represented by really good players in the semifinals.

After my Internet was down for 10 days, short of posting about all of the drama I missed, I'd rather just show support for my favorite players. If I made a top 10 list, all four of these players would be included <3.

There are two valuable truth in Fionn's thread

1. I would say that the better mechanics and game sense are definitely in the favor of MVP. He knows what to do at every corner and will punish you if he spots the tiniest weakness in your build.

2. If these two play five straight standard games, I would say that MVP wins in three or four games.
