It is a HUGE risk to send out MVP against DRG because he is a TvZ monster.


Did I read this wrong? Or did you just say it's a huge risk to send out someone who would guarantee a win?

Huh, and we can't even really blame the IM Coach.

Tails' defense of MVP's 1/1/1 was pretty baller. It wasn't revolutionary, in the sense that he did what everyone thought was the right thing to do for a long time now, he just executed extremely well. Awesome decision to camp MVP's ramp after seeing cloak, knowing that his siege mode will be really delayed, and a sentry cointain will be very effective. In general, he delayed the push very well both times, and handled the multi-banshee harass way better than I would've expected to be possible in that position. Hats off to him. At the very least, it's good to know that you can hold that all-in when it's well executed, if your own execution is also really good.

The game against Nestea was just a brainfart though. 99 times out of 100, Nestea sees those and blocks his ramp, or has a spore in his main (no idea if he forgot or simply cut a corner), and wins the game easily after that. Happy for Tails and MVP, but that was just extreme luck.

Good to see Protoss winning though, in the end.

I just watched games 5 to 9. Wow.

Huge congrats to Tails. I'm not going to lie, NesTea shouldn't have really lost that, but taking out MVP and NesTea under that much pressure is INSANE. I was seriously clapping alone in my room.
Did you ever say Yes to a single joy?

Damn, once DRG lost I thought it was over and went to bed, didn't want to see another 1/1/1 roll over a P.

Sry to doubt you Tails, now to get on with those VODS!

DRG was probably the most risky person that you could send MVP out against. I wouldn't necassarily say that DRG was favored, but I'd say that DRG had at least a 50% chance of beating MVP.

I fill asleep when DRG went up there... had no idea the outcome would come out like this. I'm arriving to work at noon (i usually start at 10am) staying up until 4am watching this, such a surprise!

Why would you say that MVP is a dangerous pick vs DRG? MVP beat DRG at MLG anaheim, since then he's proceeded to smash Nestea and July without breaking a sweat. MVP has arguably the best TvZ in the world.

Even DRG who has great ZvT cannot beat the very best terrans like Bomber/MVP/MMA. Picking MVP vs DRG is a great situation for IM.

Honestly you should have already bought the pass. The team league has been absolutely stellar.

Also, yes. It is.

I don't know about that. MVP already beat DRG 2-1 back in Anaheim and I think his TvZ has only gotten better. Sending YongHwa out was not a good choice... Losira could have worked but MVP would have been safer, especially if you still have YongHwa and the best 2 zergs in the world waiting to be sent in. As that guy earlier said, once MVP sends out the guy that's carried them here, you need to knock him out asap before he racks up too many wins, and MVP is the one to do that.

Tails, such a baller! OT: Man some of the fans in the studio are fucking lame :/ After Tails won vs MVP he went out to hand out a t-shirt and the people sitting in the crowd are like : ''Lulz I don't care''

Tails for president !:D

Watched all the games and that was probably the most thrilling SC2 match I've ever seen, on par with the last BW OSL finals. This alone is worth the fee for watching the VODS.
