No micro, no agressive play, just pure boring & passive defensive macro style into even more boring & passive broodlord infestors deathballs… And it works, even if you make more mistakes than your opponent. Thanks David Kim for your great work. I'm gonna watch older GSL games, they were a lot more entertaining back then, and more rewarding for the great players like the Mvp. No agressive play? Life opened early pool twice and was always searching for backstabs and openings and kept Mvp at his base for as long as possible. Blame Mvp for going mech EVERY single game if you didn't like passive play. I don't think it was life's fault, he was agressive, there's just no other way to kill mech at lategame without brood lords, specially with so many tanks | ||

Or the terran lost all the games where he allowed the zerg to tech to broodlord / corruptor / infestor and won the rest? pretty much. i kinda feel that the whole series was too 1 dimensional and didn't have much variety. straight up mech vs broodlord/corruptor/infestor. i was hoping mvp with spice things up a bit or life would try something insane but it didn't happen. but then again, it's all for the sake of winning so i guess they both just made compositions that they know will win the game for them. | ||

Haha, watch the games before you whine. As i recall it was Life who was the agressor throughout most of the series. The only real agression MVP did was trying to roast drones in the early part of the game, rest of the games he turtled heavily. Gongratz Life! | ||

I am looking forward to HotS with it's new units, because I think the metagame is becoming a little stale. I dislike that the whole low use of the Battlecruiser and Carrier. Both Zerg and Terran air-to-air seems a bit too strong, probably due to the Colossi. | ||

If you think it is "Bio" when Terran makes few Marines at the start and a BUNKER, then yeah, there was a Bio play in all 7 games... And some mech? He used Mech every single game. | ||

The style we see thus is more lategamefocused with a lot of turtling from T. And Z really can't break a Terran defense without Blords. And there we go with this finals. I rooted for MVP but I can't say Life didn't deserve it. congratz | ||
