Come on guys, MMA played great.

Personally, i dont like MKP. He has this arrogance surrounding him and he just has this "omg i'm better than this and better than him". MMA on the otherhand is more calm and appreciates where he is. I just don't think MKP has that. He thinks hes better than this, which i hate.

I wasn't really impressed witht he Polit and Top game, but still enjoyable. I'm probalby bias here since i watched MMA and MKP to the end.

MMA is great, and likely going to take it home and win the whole tournament given his consistent performances.

However, Im really just so much more impressed with Polt rising as the underdog from previous seasons now a finalist all of a sudden. It's really inspirational just seeing someone who clearly just decided to buckle down, work on improvement and now seeing a lot of success because of it.

On the other hand, the hype all over MMA with his success in GSTLx2 and MLG really make rooting for him a lot of fun. I dont see why everyone is so sour about the finals. It's not about the match up being TvT, it should be about to players themselves and what they've gone through to make it this far.

Im pretty pumped.

I didn't watch these... On a scale of 1 - Holy shit, how epic was MMA vs MKP? Did anyone under perform? Did MKP use tanks? Did MMA look awesome while winning? I need to know!


Yes.

MMA was down 0-2. MKP dominated MMA in the first two games. Game one was very unorthodox as well.

In the next three games, MMA adapted to MKP's style, came back several times despite down in supply, dragged it to the late game and through prolonged dogfights, edged out MKP in the next three game, reverse sweeping.

Boxer showed up when MMA was close to being eliminated. MKP was wearing his emotions on his sleeves again.

I was watching it live and my eyes were glued to the screen.


Yeah, MKP needs to get Jaedong's killer face on and lose the tilting.

Let's just hope we never have a ZvZ final



At least that would be a quick finals, while TvT could take days to finish (I kid I kid)

Seriously pumped, I always had a feeling that an MMA not letting nerves affect him was miles ahead of a code A level, I think he showed that in games 3-5 last night. MMA fighting!

I still think it'll be funny that the super tournament player will be at risk to drop to code b next regular season, wouldn't that be a quick turnaround for the worst?

i don't understand the hate on MMA. yes he played all TvT, but its not his strongest match up. he is the best ace in team leagues so all of his match ups are pretty solid, yes he lost to huk, but 1 game does not define a palyer. MMA showed the ability to win vs all races in MLG. he beat losira there just like polt did here. they are both good players and im excited for the finals.

and to the tvtvtvt haters, it produced 2 really good and even series.

It's getting pretty pathetic now. "MMA only had TvTs" to discredit his win over MKP? That makes no sense. If you really wanted MKP to win then maybe MKP should have... won?

Oh and MMA was over here in the states kicking ass as one of the two terrans (Thorzain) in MLG to make it far.

Holy crap that first series was amazing, I'm so glad that since it had to be a mirror match up it was TvT, very entertaining to watch. I feel terrible for MKP but MMA just played beautifully the last 3 games. Recommend this series for sure.

Time to watch the 2nd series, don't think it'll be as good but the first one was good enough to count as 2 lol. Tastosis super funny also.

Edit: The second series was even good, congrats to Polt. He is pulling a sanzenith right now. I hope MMA wins though.

Have you ever read a single MarineKing interview? He's is the most humble guy in the world... I have no idea what led you to believe he has any arrogance "surrounding" him.

He is better than most people though.

It is his best matchup and no, he's not good at TvP at all.

Lmfao what arrogance? Why do you insist on talking out of your ass?

And yet, it does not really surprise me that yet another person is posting things here as if it were fact, when it is only based off their own intuition or assumptions...

Just be careful what you think, there is barely any substance other than interviews for you to judge people like that accurately. I don't see how you can get that kind of impression from MKP.

And what are you basing this off of?

Granted he hasn't played that many T v P's. MMA had only lost to one protoss (Huk), in the past 3 months or so, in two sub ~10 minute crapfest of games.

Funny how you people judge MMA's T V P based on nothing.

By the way, his T v Z is more beastly than his T v T.

Winning a tournament requires both luck and skill. MMA got lucky to not play any protoss but he was still skilled enough to beat any terran (so far). Don't know why anyone would bash his performance.
