"mid game"???

They need it in the early game. Under the 10 min mark.

dont think so. protoss has some flashy opening against terran, but after the mid game protoss has only one strategy they can use, and terran has hundreds of ways to counter.

imho terran is imba because a terran player can chose between 2 different "skill trees", as a wow player would say, either bio (with air support) or mech (with air support). protoss and zerg only have 1 option available
All what KT currently needs is a Zerg and a second Terran

Not really wrong but to be a wiseass; to survive the traditional 1/1/1 all in, you are forced to 15 nexus or 1gate exp. While a colossus rush (or other possible strat) on 1 base can survive the initial wave of 1/1/1, you will lose to a contain if you don't grab that fast exp. The problem that actually exists is that protoss is Forced to fastexp to survive all ins, and terran can punish that as well which creates a difficult situation for early game protoss.

Can someone summarize the MVP games for me? it would really help :3 Ty

1. Huk does his signature 1 Gate expand. MVP goes for a Tank Marine all-in (He didn't have Banshees, I thiiink he had Medivacs but I'm not sure because I saw the game just as I woke up) and wins fairly easily.

2. Huk attempts a 3 Gate Void push and MVP looks like he's going for a 1-1-1. Huk loses his only Void Ray to a Viking at the back of the base killing only a few Marines and I think a Depot, but he does ok-ish damage at the front with some Stalkers. Huk pulls back and makes a Nexus, Robo (for detection) and Council, MVP's 1-1-1 push comes and demolishes Huk.

3. Huk decides to go for a 3 Gate expand this game, and MVP goes for 1 Rax expand. Huk loses a lot of Stalkers he shouldn't have early on and he loses ability to pressure as MVP pushes him all the way back to his base with Marines while creating a Bunker line. The game turns into a normal macro game, with MVP taking a super fast 3rd and Huk going for a Colossus-based army. Huk gets lead around the map and has his army in weird positions which lets MVP amass Vikings and demolish Huk's army as he mass expands.

From my memory, may have forgot to mention something.

In game 3, I think it's also important to note that MVP made a 3rd CC before gas

Some great play by mvp, but people need to stop acting like that was huk's, and by extension, protosses, best. He made SO many mistakes that he wouldn't have made under normal circumstances. He was clearly not on his A game today; and I'm not saying if he was, that he would have beat mvp, but it would have definitely been far more competitive to say the least. Huk needs some rest and practice.

July beat mvp last they met in a b03 if my memory serves me, one game being a ridiculous comeback. Hope he can do it again.

Is there something wrong with the live reports?

No I've been meaning to start writing summaries of each game after the day is over.

Erm wasn't July famously a mechanical monster in BW? I seem to remember a coach of his saying early on that July needed to learn how to play the game properly, but that's the easy part because he can already click really fast?

He had big apm and great micro. He could also macro fine if the game went long, well enough to beat Best in game 3. And macro is all Best is known for. He definitely neglects his creep, except on maps where he specifically wants to expand it to certain locations, at least imho.
