How is MVP's all-in not risky?
How is a 14cc on Tal'Darim in a TvT not uncommon?

I know they aren't breathtaking but they are really great!

It was a calculated blind all-in, since he predicted MMA's build based on the map and his game advantage. Yeah, I agree. The only really good build against what MVP did would be fast 1 base marine tank of your own (not likely and even then you're even) or cloaked banshees which MMA has like never used.

one day i hope for a gsl finals where it's 7 games that are good and have no all ins Is this the stance of most the viewers? I think some all ins are fun to watch. I think its intense when the defender realizes its coming and is scrambling. We all know that feeling and I think its great to see the pros response to the situation. Well this is like not that long after MLG where we had our share of all ins (thank you BoxeR) Also, more Starcraft = more fun.
You need a ratio of good long macro games and deadly all-ins....that MVP rush was very uncommon and a great strategic decision. I'd say 4-5 macro games with 2-3 all-ins, with game 7 being a macro game, would be ideal

Don't know that the Terran IMBA sign was apart of the MMA sign. Think he saw the opportunity to flash it and it happened to be at the same time the MMA sign . I saw it earlier w/o MMA.

If this series can make it to a game 7, both are undefeated on Antigua Shipyard. How can this be any better?

So Artosis and Tasteless both play Brotoss? Nice

What's with all the delays? This must be hell for the players.

Getting shot in the back by a Marauder? Ouch

Going 2 or 3 rax expo with bunker(s) would work decently well too. Any macro based build pretty much lose instantly

Oh Artosis . He hates Marauders so much.

...and they have the marauder
epic
