I dont see MVP as the champion, just a coinflipper.

If squirtle warps in at home in game 1 he wins, in game 3 he was lucky enough to go past squitles army in the middle of the map. I can still see Squirtle shaking his head in the booth when this happened.

MVP relies on that kind of luck, he hasnt won all 2012 because honestly, he hasnt deserved it.

He lacks true still but his biggest strength is knowing how to win a game with a flip of the coin.

Winning a championship doesnt meant I have to respect the way he plays or the way he wins.

People wonder why Champions frequently go out in the round of 32 in back to back GSL's.

It's because they didnt deserve to win.

MVP is dead to me.

I don't think you understand those games:D
These are your own opinion, I should have no comment. But then why "MVP is dead"? Why is that a problem you care about

Squirtle may have evolved into a Wartortle but MagiKarp evolved into a Gyarados.

Rofl , someone is bronze and is really mad.
Winning like 14 games in GSL Code S all based on luck? Dear Sir, are you RETARDED?
Game 3 it was just strategy , game 1 , it was planned too...
Please.. don't talk about luck... 4 time GSL champion is alive more than ever.

Kinda sad that MVP had to resort to a crappy cheese at a game 7 of possibly the 2nd or 3rd best GSL Final to win. Kinda screwed the whole experience/buildup for me. Squirtle could've had that last game... Oh well, grats to MVP on his cheese win.

Cheese is a part of this game and it keeps the game fresh and honest. If we had long build up games every single time, then starcraft would not be as great as it is.

You're nuts... cheese throws the game into mass intensity way early on and it brings such immense pressure to the players who have prepared builds for days. Imagine practicing a map for an entire day vs one race... setting up your build, everything.

Then suddenly unexpected cheese happens. How stressed out do you think one can be?

Boxer was insanely entertaining to watch, yet he and many others cheesed like crazy.

mate your retarded if u think Mvp relies on luck, i hope you really are a bronze leaguer who doesnt know about the game otherwise your truly retarded. also both squirtle and mvp made lots of mistakes in the series for example game 5. but who doesnt make mistakes under so much pressure? mvp won because he planned his build very carefully in each map with both extreme macro AND cheese, now this is a good players. a player could only macro is same as a player could only cheese to me.

i must say! The final game really sums up the game well man! Mvp looks to be winning -> Squirtle looks to be winning -> all-in last ditch effort to a Mvp win! OMG! totally sums up the whole 7 set series!

Awesome series, especially the metropolis game was amazing. I feel a bit bad about the last match, i think squirtle should won if he stayed in his base. To push out and loosing the one stalker and i think a zealot too lost him the game. His eco was much better, so he should be fine if he just played defensive and chrono out more stalkers.

I really like the straight up games, topped off with the most nerve wracking 2rax I can remember ever seeing. Great series!
Like Tinkerbelle, I leave behind a sparkly residue.
