I think MKP's style of TVT is the future. It is similar to the way that zvz has evolved. At first, it was mass ling, which is analogous to Marine Kings Prime styles of mass marines all over the map.Then it was mass roach, which is kind of like mass tanks in TVT, only mass tanks came first. Ultimately there will be a combination of them both, but I think MKPs marine style is a little more ahead of the curve, and much more dynamic. I think Marine King Prime will win the GSL very convincingly, probably 4-2 or 4-3 depending on the map pool. IMMVP is a very, very strong player, but tank pushes are going the way of the dodo IMO. GSL 4 will show that on the 29th.

MKP's got this. Hoping for a 4-3 final though, with long and even games. That would be epic.

After watching so many games, I have to say, TvT is by far one of the most interesting games. Rarely does it become a complete turtle game as it used to be in BW, since now we have medivacs + marauders.

And with MKP, nothing is boring. Base race all 7 games?

I know this has been posted already, but I feel I need to stress it again:

Pinnacle Odds
Mvp 1.455
MarineKing 2.850

I feel this is a very big mistake by the bookmaker. The chances of the two players are close to 50%, maybe only a very slight advantage for MVP. If anyone remembers last season's odds, they were (around) 1.4 for MC and 2.95 for Rain. So u can see the huge discrepancy here. Is Foxer as big of an underdog as Rain was vs MC? Certainly not.

Anyway.. I guess my bottom line is u should go and bet. I certainly will. ;]

Tank pushes get weaker and weaker on bigger maps. The map I see MVP winning is either blistering sands or meta close positions. If we get to game 7 I think MVP wins on jungle basin.

I have my hopes, but MKP did lose to MVP 1-3 in Gainward so...I think it might even be a roll.
the farm ends here

I'm pretty glad it's that early, the finals start at 11pm for me, as opposed to the usual 3-4am... :D

MVP has been on a roll this tourament and for the past month but with his lack of experience of a GSL top placement he'll not win this. MarineKing has been consisitent since GSL season 2. Not only can he abuse and has the best micro of the terrans most overpowered unit (the marine) he has great game sense and his TvT play is amazing.

MVP and MarineKing are both known for being very aggressive players, yet I see MarineKing being the better of the aggressive players. With that in mind and with MarineKing taking out NaDa as well as Jinro (Being 2 of the best Macro terrans in the world imo) I feel MarineKing has a huge edge on MVP even with MVPs current hotstreak.

MarineKing derserves a first place finish, he has since season 2 and finally, in GSL 4 he will get what he deserves.

Congratulations MarineKing!

I wonder if anything will be different next month, considering there are 3 less days before march compared to days in january to february.
Survival is winning, everything else is bullshit.

Why would MK have the best marine micro? Just because it's in his name? MVP's micro is very impressive.
Well, now I tell you, I never seen good come o' goodness yet. Him as strikes first is my fancy; dead men don't bite; them's my views--amen, so be it.

Anyone who doubts MVP because of his experience needs to look at this page.

No, because he has shown everyone, over and over that he has the best micro. It has nothing to do with his name.

He chose the name "marineking" since that's what his fans were calling him in his "Boxer" days, right?

Anyhow, I like MK since he's the sort of player that creates new styles of playing Terran. But MVP I feel like is the overall more solid player.
