Not really. Mc has never took games off of MVP recently. (maybe one or two sets)

Their win-lose record is 9-3 for MVP.

MC won in ace invitational. 9-4, And how is going 1-1 at WCG, and 2-4 at MLG and winning in ace invitational not taking games? Seriously.


He said off of MVP, not in general.

I have a weakness for MVP always had, so hoping he can avange his lost Finals 3-1
DRG is either overhyped or flagged as clueless, fact is he's got a mean ZvT and ZvP even his ZvZ isn't that bad, i see him win against 11 month old tactics of 2 base protoss, he also has the leenock games to watch and learn from that. 3-0

You do know that taking a game of MVP is not going to be enough right .. His odds are against him and MVP simply is the better player. MC might take a game though his timings are still suprising to some.

What does that have to do with what I said? I never said MC would win or that he's a better player. Just correcting the guy who said he hasn't taken games off him in their recent meetings because he has.

"Artosis was right. When MVP plays mech at his best in a standard game, pure bio will not beat him. Polt put up a valiant last effort, but it just wasn't enough. MVP has all the cheat codes and wants another trophy. Can the high octane drop-style of MMA take down mech? We'll find out tonight."

I feel like the first sentence can't be said until we see the last sentence in action. I think that the heavy drop, multitask style of MMA will crush mech

This is something that can never be truly tested.
It's about how much better can one position himself vs how mobile the other can be.
These are not limited by the race, by rather by the map and player skill.

All we will ever see is who is more skilled in their craft when you see anyone do Mech vs Bio.
No one can argue mech loses to bio in direction engagement. (Assuming you have the proper army composition).
As far as overall STRENGTH, this is not the same as saying immortals counter colosi, this mechanic is unique terran and creates a very interesting dynamic in the game.

Point being, it is difficult to foresee that two players will ever simultaneously pull off perfect mech and perfect bio, which is the only way we could know what is "superior".

Oops, wrong thread.

I said MMA needed to be tricky to win. I thought MVP would be ready. His body wasn't ready.
