probably he at least thinks about how to play

That's some style I haven't seen working since Jinro vs MC. I gotta check out his TvP games

Tanks only work on some maps like Tal Darim Altar. If you go tanks on maps like Xel Naga, you're basically dead.

It's not exactly Jinro's style of mech, Jinro was much more turtley, Supernova is much more aggressive.

this game is volatile as it is, any sort of lag can be a huge factor imo. I think cross server games are a bit unfair, especially to koreans who are getting the short end of the stick here. Not a lag rant, CrunCher played well but still kind of unnerving to see people like MKP lose so easily.


And why is that? he was a B-teamer before, not a jeadong or flash .. other players are improving and Cruncher seems to be one of those, seriously, MKP might have reached his ceiling for all we know.


And Cruncher was a mediocre WC3 player, which puts him far below BW B teamers in RTS terms.

MarineKing is legitimately one of the very best players in the world, results prove this.


MKP has one of the worst TvPs out of the Terran GSL finalists, while Cruncher has one of the best PvTs in the foreigner's scene (apparently - because he appears to be rolling Strelok as well). The skill gap in SC 2 isn't so big that MKP should auto-win.


Is that why he all-killed the top 5 protoss (except MC) in TPZ?
Explain to me who has better TvP than MKP.. MVP is having hard times vs P as well.
All terrans are having trouble vs P in general, it's not just MKP...


MVP has better TvP than MKP. Most of the Slayers Terrans have better TvP than MKP. Even Boxer might have better TvP than MKP. The difference between all of these Terrans and MKP is that they don't rely on one-base/two-base marine tank pushes. They make marauders, they make ghosts. They win.


What are you basing all this on?
I think saying MVP has better TvP than MKP is rather bold, as MVP has been struggling immensely recently vs Toss, as he JUST lost to adelscott 0-2, lost to Genius & Alicia and got knocked down to code A, etc etc. Which terran in slayers has better TvP?
I'm not sure about boxer vs MKP, as I can't seem to recall boxer facing any good protoss players.



I'm basing it on marauders and ghosts and vikings being better against Protoss units than marines and tanks. MVP loses but he puts up good fights. Every time MKP has used the marine tank style he's been rolled by a Protoss who knows how to respond to it. His marine tank style is too predictable and fragile. Until MKP realizes this he can't really improve.


You never can figure out new combinations and styles unless you try them.
You also can't say someone is better at vs Protoss because he makes marauders/ghosts.
I can make marauders/ghosts/vikings, but I'm obviously much inferior to MKP.

I'm not saying MKP is the best at TvP, but he's obviously not the worst.


I said he's one of the worst TvP I've seen from top GSL players, not that he is the worst TvP in Korea. That I'm willing to consider him a top GSL player at all is a nod to his results.

The problem with his style is that he relies on predictable timing pushes. Sometimes they work, sometimes they don't, but as more and more Protoss players recognize the timings the less likely it is that they'll work.

And if they don't work, MKP can't/doesn't transition, because marine tank is a very fragile composition. You can't really run away with tanks if you lose the fight, so it's almost like a soft all-in. Once you lose the bulk of your tanks marines can't hold any kind of colossi and/or HT army so he just flat out loses. This appears to me a lot weaker than even Qxc's mass ghost marauder style which can at least run away.
