Go Grubby! Go Immortals!
I would never imagine that he would win that game after being late with 3rd, down in supply and losing all sentries for nothing.
But the thing is that MKP will go MMM in the third game and probably take the win easily.

Mana FTW!

I dont understand why he didnt build ghosts o,o

Probably because he didn't have enough gas

Because he can't make 18 tanks and 2 ghosts instead of 20 tanks, right?

Btw, the bad thing about mech is the MOBILITY. A big mech army should beat about every army that Protoss can think of. If a Mech Terran loses in a straight up fight, it's not because mech is bad...

Grubby was actually expecting Ghosts out, which is why he got Templar + Archon out. But MKP doesn't like ghosts. Stephano had 8+ Infestors, when MKP was mostly in Marines & Tanks, and he didn't toss down a Ghost Academy.

Obviously, the lack of Stim working on Ghosts offends MKP.

I'm sure MKP will mech again, he's just stubborn

It's entirely possible, while there is a 4k prize difference between 3rd and 4th place I wouldn't put it past him to risk trying mech again to prove it can be done. That game made me sad though like at mlg where he randomly decided to mech vs Idra and his play was so awkward.

There's a number of fundamental problems with mech honestly outside of mobility. In TvP its that Immortals basically roll face over mech once Protoss amass a sufficient number of them (and that is usually when Terran moves out with a decent tank army). In TvZ there is a notable lack of anti-air to deal with mutalisks, since magic boxing over Thors is the saddest thing ever for mech users.

Only real time mech ever works is in TvT. Supplementing mech with ravens in TvT works splendidly against bio play that focuses around heavy marauders. Of course I could be wrong, but this is based off of my observations from the many sadly failed mech games.

well... feedbacking all ghosts and not getting hit by EMP while the ghosts hide behind a tankline.

sounds impossible to me.

Agreeing with the last part though
