When a guy has like 50% of all possible 2nd places in tournaments, the coach should really start considering the choke factor...

That said, GJ MVP.

Yeah MKP cannot handle pressure as well as other players. He should be put on earlier and not be the last man.

And who else would do better in high pressure situations? No one has even close to a second place besides polt who isn't even on the team anymore. Everyone else is literally untested.


Yeah suppose so though. Maybe hongun prime man. You don't need nerves to all in.
Blink stalker all in, void ray all in, 4 gate all in, honguns got it.

Well by the time he made the decision to pull scvs, he HAD to. Still haven't even started a refinery at that point in a TvT, especially after taking some eco damage from banshees? You're dead man lol. I'm just in shock that MKP actually went for that strat, and even more so, executed it so badly. I mean I like the guy, I feel bad for him, but that was one of the worst executions of a timing build I've seen in a while.

And I enjoy it every single time. It never gets old.
Well, maybe he can catch a break at MLG next week.


How can you guys be so mean ? What do you mean "MKP gets cocky" ?

I still don't get it. Why did he pull all his marines back to deal with the banshee? He was going for an all-in anyway, couldn't he have happily sac'd the SCV's to the banshee? even if it Was cloaked?

makes no sense to me :S it was the anti-timing and the anti-climax to what could have been an EPIC series climaxing in MKP v DRG

Maybe MKP assuming it was cloak figured there would be more banshees to follow up and it would have been fine to defend and push later. But since keen only made 1 banshee and switch immediately to marine tank stim combat shield....sigh

If it's something which lacked, it was a proper stadium venue for the finals though. The studio venue doesn't make the finals live up to how it should actually be.

Yeah i hope they make it some kind of venue next time, but then again, it might get stuck by the finals curse then!

That's how MKP plays in GSTL



This is so true but after AoL (and the way Nada has embarrased Keen repeatedly in TvT) even I thought Marineking would sweep aside Keen with ease and lose to DRG instead.

Funny how MVP couldn't survive GSTL pre-playoffs without DRG but then during the playoffs they didn't need him to close out the games.

Two things must have been going on MKP's head.

1. Assumed the Banshee had cloaked.
2. He hates Metalopolis

MKP should have hit the timing he was going for, but sent all his forces to deal with the banshee. Cost him the game really.


If he had pushed out instead of gone back the game was 100% his.

That decision to go back with everything cost him everything.

MKP panicked... He pulled a bronze and chased the banshee with a single pack of marines
SC:BW has a higher skill ceiling than SC2? SC 64 is where it's at brah.

Who got the MVP award? Keen? I think Noblesse should've received that.

MKP played just like his first finals loss... Badly executing an all-in.

It must be because your favorite didn't win the trophy in the end.

I was expecting a ceremony from MVP

I loved when SlayerS did theirs after winning the two GSTLs. Oh well. Some really good games and base trades. It certainly wasn't the usual GSL final (cause GSTL finals never are ^_^)

Having a BW-style finals would be really cool, but I think we have to just accept that SC2 hasn't hit the level of popularity in Korea to justify it. Give it a couple of years, though, and I'm sure we'll see it.

I guess I am dumb then, I didn't see them. I still stand by my point though, he pretty much had to win there.
