I don't think Stephano will advance. He seems more or less to have checked out.
To be is to be the value of a bound variable.

Tefel is master of throwing away games. It was more this than Mvp's greatness.

Sad to see elfi go down...
Fusilero: "I still can't believe he did that, like dude what the fuck there's fandom and then there's what he did like holy shit. I still see it when I close my eyes." <- reaction to the original drunk santa post which later caught on

I'm trying to understand how a professional gamer is up 45 workers to 5, and loses. Terran has no way back in the game but drops. Expand everywhere, throw up static defense, tech up, and win. Not even going to bother watching the VOD because I can pretty much picture it already... probably undefended drops, not teching up to better units...

How does MVP find ways to win these games though? His tenacity is amazing.

just the usual Mvp doesn't give up and builds the direct counter to your current composition only. If you think you can slam your units into him he will massacre you. And everyone can lose to it if they face someone like Mvp known for coming back in those situations and then don't want to mess up.
You could say Mvp stomps and the ground screams "this is Terran" and puts you into overawe status.


Anyway go go MC maybe use Zerg against Stephano!

1) Tefel is known for throwing games if ahead (EU King of throw).
2) If you have watched the VOD then you will notice that he did exactly nothing (no tech, no static denfense, no expansion etc). Mvp won already at this "5 vs 45 workers" time. 70 supply of marauder + tanks win ezpz vs 155 supply of roaches at good position. Exaclty this happenend. And after this fight, Tefel only built roaches (again).

Heart says Stephano/MC, head has no idea but seems like Stephano...the problem is MC can be unpredictable.

Odd....he does link back to TeamLiquid.net though it looks like. Maybe it's used with permission?

People say that since WCS season 1 ro32. Guess who was in the finals.
It's like everyone wants to see him fail just to be able to say "I told you so, he's not the best anymore."
Yes he is not as good as he was during his 2011 run but he is still a level (at least) above other foreigners, even when playing the game is a chore to him.

The only way for Naniwa, Thorzain, Demuslim and more recently Snute, Lucifron or TLO to become really relevant will be when he retires.

45....to 5

I didn't see this game, but how the fuck is MVP so awesome? Anybody care to link me to the VOD? I thought his incredible comeback against Innovation was a fluke, but apparently not...


he just never quits .. and little by little he takes advantage .. we can never count him out .. hes like boxer in broodwar .. who comes back time and time again


MVP is the King of Wings, and mules are pretty good.
