Why would Polt be in instead of MKP? Doesn't MKP have higher GSL points?

GOM said they would award the spot to 5th GSL point holder, Polt: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=292880

No one knows for sure. Either WCG 2nd place gets it, 5th place GSL gets it or some random invite gets it (Jjakji/Sen perhaps)

Hey guys , just woke up ... Did darkforce really power thru his group with MKP in it? :O Did they show that?


He beat MKP because MKP didn`t take it serious(he should have) by trying a ghost nuke rush which failed.


Honestly if MKP wasn't taking it serious he's an idiot because that game literally was pivotal for him to keep his spot.

At best, he will get #2 in the group now with Darkforce being 5-0.


And that would put him in the same bracket as MVP, so no MVP-MKP finals


Perhaps MKP knows he won't stand a chance if he met MVP in a finals situation so meeting in the semis is his best shot


I thought I heard someone say they would meet right away after the group stage. In either case, get it over with! Reverse psychology. Not a final; no problem! ;D

Are they actually playing on laptop or are they just using it as a PC? Nothing wrong with using a laptop with keyboard and separate screen though.

Well I guess that's true, even laptops should be able to handle WC3

Laptops can handle pretty much any game.

Even for SC2, there's not a single laptop in the world that can handle it even in 1v1 all settings ultra 200/200 vs 200/200 at 60+ FPS or even close to that


There is. You just need to pay more for it compared to desktop.. There are already laptops with dual graphics cores and quad proc mobile CPU.


Quad proc is useless for SC2 though. Most programs aren't optimized for multiple cores. A dualcore (i5) with greater ghz works better for sc2. And anyway the gxf card is the bottleneck, but anything better than a HD5870 is good enough, no need for crossfire (double gfx card)

Edit: oh wait no i was thinking of most games. sc2 is cpu limited but cant use multiple cores well, nvm

by having him a chance at getting 2nd, also gives him a small chance at blizzard cup, right?


I think someone said Polt would be in if MVP wins.

gom said if MVP wins it goes to 5th in gsl points, so yes, it would be polt

At this rate, instead of MKP vs MVP finals, it becomes SuperNoVa vs MVP finals

Why laugh at Bling and Killer? I'd say both of them are better than a few of those players in a Bo3.


oh that one wasnt inentional, i posted this in another forum where that was an inside joke

€: why do u build ur finals up yet... there are many players that can take out even mvp or mkp in this tournament still oO

There is. You just need to pay more for it compared to desktop.. There are already laptops with dual graphics cores and quad proc mobile CPU.

I know that, SC2 isn't graphics card limited but rather CPU limited, it can make use of 3 cores so you preferably want a Sandybridge i7, however you need to have it overclocked to around 5.0Ghz whereas laptop CPUs with turbos go up to like 3.4Ghz at max with only 1 core in use and the turbo goes lower the more cores you're making use of so an effective max would be around 3.0Ghz and that would be for a ~2000$ Extreme CPU. Also, it's just about a deathwish to attempt to overclock them so you'll never get to the 5.0Ghz and your desk is likely to burst in flames if you try to overclock even to like a constant 3.5Ghz without turbo. Most laptops can't be overclocked anyway.

Also a big point why MKP SHOULD prefer to be on other side of bracket of MVP is because there might be a .0001% chance someone would knock out MVP before he got to final.

SC2 (like all Blizzard games) is cpu heavy and perfectly optimized for quadcore cpu ^^'. With low settings you can play it on almost every setup.
