Nestea gone, now MKP.
when will SC2 be a skill-based RTS? Its funny to me people consider MKP in the rank of Nestea. Maybe I'm blind but i don't really see what all this fuss around MKP is about. MKP is good at timing attacks,base trades and doing gimmicky builds. I could name at least 5 terrans that are better imo. He basically invented, or at least popularized marine splitting, akin to how July popularized Muta stacking in SC1. He's still going to be getting credit for revolutionizing that part of the game even in 10 years. Except July ACTUALLY invented mutastacking. People would have split their marines sooner or later. MarineKing happened to do it sooner. Umm...Nope. July popularized it. His teammate Shark invented Mutastacking. MKP was responsible for popularizing it. MVP used it first, but he lost. MKP's series against Zenio was the first time that Marine micro was truly demonstrated in astonishing effectiveness. I thought it was MKP vs Kyrix on Shakuras Plateau where everyone was in disbelief at marines beating banelings with crazy splits and micro. They were, MVP showcased some good splits vs Zenio in earlier rounds of that tournament but ultimately lost the series. MKP then blew everyone away with his control vs Kyrix. --- This game is looking good for Polt so far =) Thank god somebody else remembers MVP showing it before MKP.
It's always funny with these things because you never know who's doing what in practice, or even just on the ladder. It's not like MKP or MVP woke up for the games on the morning of their respective games and were like "oooh, I'm going to split my marines against his banelings today"
I'd not be surprised if you look back further or in some less well known games and find other people doing it even before that too heh.
MKP did the most for popularizing it in that game with pure marine vs baneling on shak at least.

Yeaeeeeeeaaaaahh Polt, really nice early game, bit of a mistake for a moment but had a big enough advantage to just crush on through ^^

Polt was right about Jinro's luck.
Don't forget that Jinro knocked Polt out after he said that. Jinro was playing really well at the time and Polt was playing really badly. He actually had no right to say it.

If you've watched any of Polt's games (other than the MAKA series lol) he's looked phenomenal. And TOP beat Nestea completely legitimately. Are you mad that the Heat lost the NBA finals too because they are better on paper? Basketball is a 5 man team game. Heat had 2 good players. Dallas had 3. uhhh,LeBron Wade and Bosh....thats 3. lebron and wade. that's 2. you mean wade and bosh. Let's rank the 6 players being annoyingly argued about Off-topic. Lebron Dwayne Wade Dirk Nowitski Chris Bosh Jason Terry Jason Kidd
You spelled two of their names wrong. And you are wrong regardless.
The top 6 players in order were
Dirk Nowitzski
Dwyane Wade
Tyson Chandler
LeBron James
Jason Kidd
Chris Bosh

Wow, this game is so bad compared to the last series, I really dont see any of these two taking out MMA as long as MMA plays at 80% of what he did today Polt or TOP could take out MMA. It wasn't like neither MKP or MMA didn't make mistakes today either.
Yes
When it comes to Korean players, you can't underestimate them. They randomly do good every now and then

Yeah, Polt was still in school studying and was close to graduating. He has since finished and is now playing very well.

You know nothing about basketball OR starcraft. Why do you even post nonsense? Dallas only had 3 good players? Get the fuck out. Dirk, Kidd, Terry Lebron, Wade what is so hard to understand about that?
Because there are more than 5 players who play in an NBA game. There's an entire team. Jesus your moronic discussion is derailing the thread this is off topic and your NBA knowledge is laughable. Just quit while you're way, way behind.
