Cant believe theres so much hate in these threads while we're so blessed with a wonderful event, with wonderful games. Last warning, whine and insult the players or commentators? See you.

They would have to make Nestea start one game down. It wouldn't be fair otherwise.

Just a few things that bothered me. For one thing, Day9 and djWheat did not seem very... excited in the finals. It just overall seemed a bit... unfinaly. The other thing is that I didn't know MVP only needed 2 games to win the series... I thought that it was a BO5 because of the three bars near the players names. What a disappointment it was when MVP was announced the winner after a quite mediocre (imo) last game.

These two issues aside, the tournament was great! Awesome games all weekend and a great final few games, and SLAYERSBOXER

Don't be surprised. This is the guy that has failed to get through Code A 4 times in a row now. What makes you think he'll do well in Code S?

NesTea can fall to any of these top terrans.

The fact that he someone avoids them every GSL and only hits Ensnare irks me, I want to see high level TvZ.


You must have missed his game against SC in code S may .


That was before Blizzard patched the pre-ignitor upgrade to appear blue and suddenly every terran finally realized it existed in TvZ.

Edit: Honestly though I think it's more than manageable for Zergs -- Mvp didn't go for blue-flame hellions in games 1 or 3 vs. DRG and I suspect the reason is that NesTea shuts that build down and he expected DRG would as well.

lol, the koreans are so awkward when they win. Well, all of them besides MC anyways.

You just won $5,000, show some fucking emotion ~_~


mma showed emotion...


5k is not much at all, dude. Show some emotion? Why would you show emotion for $5,000 are you an idiot?

He's won 2 GSL's and the setup at MLG is not as congratulatory and epic as GSL ceremonies anyway.


I just got the image of MVP standing there thinking 'So this is it? Kinda boring, really...'

I did love the shot of him kissing the GSL trophy. That's always a lovely image to end the tournament on.

Kind of cheesey seeing the trophy kiss after every GSL lol, does make for a nice photo op i guess tho.

hopefully MMA will be back on his own, since he should have more than enough points to be placed highly into pools with 1st/2nd finishes right?

Still can't believe MLG's format haha. Not even extended series, but some random mix between it and regular double elim.

its not random at all. its a standard double elimination where extended series only takes place when two players face each other again.

No, there are other random things about their format that makes no sense. Such as seeding only 4 players into the winners and everyone else into the Loser's? makes no sense. Most of the other double elim tourneys I see are seeding everyone into the winners, letting the results of pool play only affecting who the people play.

No that makes you Jinro.

Also didnt say cool, also didnt have to type in all caps to attempt to prove my point.

Personality is a big key to selling yourself, and those events that you go to. MC knows this, Boxer knows this. MVP shows up in his cap, wins and the cheers are bigger for Boxer on the stage at the end. He made for a boring grand finals, 2 games or not, the semis and losers finals were more exciting.


Boxer is the most popular man in all of e-sports. He gets the biggest cheers no matter who else is up there or what the results are.

Mvp is humble, but very likeable.

true that, Mvp didn't do anything wrong. I would have personally liked to see him without his cap, but who knows what's goin on there when people aren't styling his hair and putting makeup on him. haha

as much as top 5/6 are terrans.. three terrans are from the slayers team alone. I don't think it is that bad, just like last MLG had a lot more korean zergs this time there were more korean terrans

MLG likes having stacked pro brackets.
Too bad all the Koreans showed up after the pro seeds were set.

He's got the trophy in both his hands, so has the reposition them to shake his hand. Nothing awkward about it.
