He's always been this good, he just makes huge blunders that betray that image.

Rain actually showed glimpse of good play earlier but it was always down played by haters because he SCV rushed when everyone did it...

Kind of interesting that when Rain was a GSL finalist, he was borderline awful. But now in the up & down matches, he's very solid :p

Yeah, he's the only person to beat MVP in a TvT series. That means he took a set off him, one of the only people to do so. What's the 'wat?' about?

He really never was that bad tbh. I never got why people always gave him so much shit for bunker rushing Nestea back then when MC won that whole season with 4gate/3gate ray/proxy gates.

Yeah, for some reason, when players massively screw up or just play badly on TV, people think that's how that player actually plays all the time, rather than giving any benefit of doubt. When you see Rain playing like this, this is his actual skill level, likely how good he is in practice in an unpressured environment. That's why it's always annoying as shit to see tons of people in LR threads going "hurp durp rain is terrible el oh el" when he plays badly.

Game 2 on Crevasse:

(T)Rain spawning @ 7
(T)MVP spawning @ 1

Rain opening with gas first, typical indicator of banshees.

MVP opens with a 15cc, favouring his desires for strong early eco.


MVP's 2 orbitals are on the way, following up with rax into fact.

Rain is going for banshees and expanding behind that, MVP gets a SCV into Rain's base but only sees a hellion and the 1 gas since Rain took his early etc.

Banshee on the way, MVP scans EVERYTHING.

Some very solid Banshee micro from Rain and he gets 10kills before a viking finally pops to take care of it.

MVP building banshees of his own, and trying to take a third.

Rain setting up for a drop in MVP's nat


Rain's drop does a good bit of damage, he's keeping MVP in check constantly so far and is up about 12 supply.

Cloak is done for MVP, Rain saw the banshee though so has turrets on the way up as well as vikings that snipe out the banshee just as it arrives.

Rain with a slight tank lead and it looks like he'll have siege mode done first, a good scan snipes out another banshee.

MVP spreading himself well defensively, covering for drops and harass. Rain tries to siege the natural a bit, but MVP's doing a great job of nullifying damage.

This gives MVP the chance to finally take his 3rd, but Rain almost has his up too now.

Slight supply advantage for MVP as we approach 15minutes.
