Does anyone have the source for MVP choosing to stay in Korea?
Normally I wouldn't doubt TL but it just seems so crazy, he's going to Europe anyways, and where he's staying whether it be SK or Acer or WCS EU house it can't cost him money, it would only cost him something if he went back to Korea before Ro16 but why would he, LG-IM has plenty of good players for GSTl and MVP was never a team league player, and on top of all that he has plenty of money to spare. Just seems unbelievable he would risk being knocked out of the tournament for something like that.

I think the timing has a lot to do with it, if you look at the schedule for WCS EU you will see that the ro32 takes place over 4 weeks, unlike the 2 weeks for GSL/OSL. If Mvp went to EU for his group he would be staying there for a solid month before he has to play the ro16, he probably figured it was worth the risk to stay home because his group was relatively weak. This way he can train at the LG-IM house for a month before the ro16 instead of going to Europe where his practice conditions aren't nearly as good.
Regarding the source, Waxangel probably asked around, I can't imagine it was too difficult to get an answer.

You are right, Tefel took him to 3....And probably should have won but completely choked when he had double MVP's supply.

Don't judge the entire region based on Tefel, that's silly. It's not that surprising that Mvp would lose a game playing with kr > eu lag.
