What's Rotterdam doing in Korea? Commentating WC3? Is he going to apply for Code A casting?

MVP < Bling


I'm sorry, what? MVP losing to Bling?!


Sup Son.

MVP is quite bad vs Protoss, though Bling is pretty decent.



what? you must be kidding, man. MVP is quite good vs T,P,Z all

he is significantly weaker vs Protoss. I'm sorry if you can't see this

Edit: such an early 1-1-1 push by MVP, dunno how i feel about this.


he's weaker because the match up... not because he is bad in tvp


Nah its definitively that MVP is worse against P.It has always been his weakness, just like Nestea is worse against T

MVP never really adapted to the 2 forge style. His upgrades are always so late in TvP that the longer the game goes on the worse and worse it gets for him.
No one has.figured it out. T v P is like the hardest matchup for all high-level Korean Terrans. Obviously maps and balance changes have and new BO/strats for Protoss have significantly changed the T v P landscape.

Terran players probably need to work harder to find counters to recent protoss improvements. Jiakji's gone for thor/banshee stuff. Others have used hellions to wreck unscrupulous protosses (Some Korean T versus Huk recently?). But it seems the most viable counters so far have either been All-in (thor banshee stuff) or early game abuse (hellions v hapless stalkers).

T v P is tough man. I guess it's time for Terrans to feel the pain that Tosses felt for aaaages lol

I know you can move burrowed roaches over lowered supply depots, so you could camp a burrowed roach on top of a lowered depot. Never heard of burrowing on top of a lowered depot though.

Only managed to watch moonglade vs MKP in SC2 today, and War3 finals (T.T Sky nooooooooo (also bi-est Korean commentators jumping up and down (even though was listening to Chinese commentators)))

So good to see XiGua in the finals! He can give MVP a run for his money, and I'm going to be praying to all the gods of ESPORTS for him to win! 加油!

As for the caster knowledge debate, IMHO they could do more, maybe check TLPD and Liquipedia, but it's not their fault that the Chinese scene is so isolated and information so few (blame the Chinese Firewall, no streaming websites, no Youtube, and lack of big tournaments in China and the relatively lack of travelling Chinese players do).
I know language barrier is huge, but all they need to do is email NeoTV for some player information and for the Chinese scene. XiaoSuh and Joy are happy to help I'm sure. The chinese scene is pretty much NeoTV stuff + PTSL + random leagues like the G-league / Starwars.

Not hard to follow (guess I read/write/speak mandarin but yea).

Best players are LoveTT, Xigua, F91, Loner. The good players are like Uhen, Jim, other players on WorldElite, other players on iG.

plz dont say g-league is a random league....its the best in china....i am begging you...

Sorry I know that the G-league is pretty much the championship decider of China's scene. I meant "random" as in other leagues which aren't as regular / on at the moment. G league has only happened twice in the past year of starcraft 2 right? I know it's huge, but it's not as regular as the clan wars which NeoTV / PTSL have hosted.

I'm confused, why is it showing 2 asian guys instead of Rotterdam and his co-caster???


These games are shown on TV in Korea, Tasteosis and RottiWolf's steams are piggybacked on those broadcasts. That is why they look terrible and they can't control the camera, honestly it makes the commenting terrible, but it can be funny at times. The same thing for the battery dying, it should be a huge embarassment for Samsung, but really it will just lead to more people talking about it. Kinda a funny world.

I love to play against that speed reaper build, somehow people don't realize how weak it is because they dont normally spread their marines in the corners, easy win tvt because of free reapers every game feels nice.
I like the part where sense is considered a common, settled thing.

all those jjakji stuff, hellions wrecking huk, etc are bandaid all in or strong timing pushes just like 1-1-1 is... very gimmicky.
theres nothing to fig out since macro late game has been the same in tvp in forever, only the gimmicks change. macro terran vs macro toss - toss has advantage of stronger ball and upgrade, faster reinforcement due to warpgate so terran get one chance at max army vs max army to win outright with enough left over to kill the next remaxed army warp in, whereas toss has to win once then camp production, def in toss favour atm esp since terran form of aoe got nerfed hard (emp)

The only thing this game is lacking is both players ninja expanding to the same corner of the map.

he's tried with the early upgrades but then loses to insanely strong timing pushes by people like MC and gets called greedy. Mvp even says in his twitter that its incredibly difficult.

If it's just for money/winning, then don't make stupid statements you're going to contradict soon.


Man you guys gotta give Terrans some slack. 1-1-1 is not even that strong anymore. 1. Tosses have adapted well 2. maps are bigger thus making all-ins suck, 3. immortal's been buffed a little.

Also - protosses all-in all the time as well. Why should you hate on a terran for all-ining? Peeps need to consider that at the highest level (GSL), Tosses are ripping terrans apart with up-zealots / nice tech switches. Once the double forge goes down and the natural expansion is secure.... gl breaking a good Protoss
