Wow, reading all this disparaging remarks about MC >.>

Please show some respect, especially to the two time GSL champion. He's still easily one of the best still in the scene. Yes, he did recently lose dreamhack and hsc3, but they were all to a volatile matchup of PvP.


and go to up-down matches


Nestea has fallen to the Up/Downs before, and not only has MVP done that, he fell all the way to Code A. So what? -_-;;


The reason he needs to be in up and down is he picked mvp. If nestea does so, he would be in the up and down now no doubt.


Yeah MC messed up picking MVP. It's a hard lesson he had to learn just like SCfou did who is now toiling in code a because of his bravado as well. Go for the easy pick to secure your Code S is what players should do. With a bo1 situation, it's not worth the risk.

MC picked MVP because he wanted to maximise his chances of getting top 2 in rank points for GSL so as to get invited to BlizzCon. The way it worked, he maximised the chances of MVP and NesTea playing their toughest opponents - himself and each other - early on, giving him more opportunity to overtake in rank points.

Of course, that's not how it worked out, but the strategy was intelligent.


LOLs. SC had no bravado, he picked MVP specifically to make sure he didn't have to face him until the finals again. He just figured that he could beat everyone else picked in the group.



And he surely knew that MVP would not pick players like Nestea or Mc. haha

I have the hardest time figuring out when starcraft games will actually be on.

can someone give me a like EST or PST on the finals hopeful start time?

This EU timezone shit is really lame - cant translate it with TL and they call it something weird that most conversion sites dont even have.

Voting for EGPuMa in this battle but rooting for oGsSKMC! I want MC to continue his reign as King of foreign tournaments! Also rooting for Socke in the other match only because of his sick hairdo. It truly is an insult to not put Socke and Mana photos in this thread. Getting top 4 at IEMGAMESCOM is no easy task!
So happy that this tournament wasn't loaded with terrans in the KO/bracket stages. Don't get me wrong! TvT will always be my favorite match up to observe. But watching one race dominate the latter stages of a tournament gets old fast.

I wish TL would allow a function to put an CET clock or USA clock at top right. Or at least a better way of translating time zone differences. For some reason TL seems to think that KST owns all.

Wow come on don't be so ill informed and still fucking post. He's won copenhagen, dreamhack inviational, stars war inviational, and has gotten top 3 at NASL, HSC and MLG. He is king of foreign tourneys if there is one.
