Watch how you approach the topic of match fixing. You can speculate, saying "I'm not so sure about the finals, something doesn't sit right with me," but if you are going to outright accuse players of match fixing you need something more than your word.

TL takes match fixing/abuse seriously and as such there is a burden a proof when you are accusing players.

Kind of sad, it doesn't seem that Mvp is getting as many cheers as some other players. I't doesn't even make any sense really, he's extremely nice, EXTREMELY good, and really mannered.


MMA has always been one of the most popular Koreans next to MC so that isn't a very fair comparison.


Well... its also people love a good underdog and MVP is like the big giant dude

At least this way you can still think he had a shot at Mvp and blame the maps.

If you haven't been to a live event so far, here's how the crowd works majority of the time.

They cheer in the order of:
Is Idra/ Huk playing? Cheer for them
Is Boxer playing? Cheer for him
Are there foreigners playing? Cheer for the foreigner
Is Protoss playing? Cheer for P.
Is Zerg playing? Cheer for Z.
Who is the underdog? Cheer for him.

Nobody seems to like Terran in the crowd most of the time.

Just tuned in. What's the format?

Extended Series?

Does MVP have to beat Nestea twice?
A man once asked me if I saw the glass half empty or half full. I turned and said, "Neither. I see a glass twice as big as it should be."

MVP: Hopefully I can get close positio- I mean comeback, a comeback vs Nestea.

Considering the way that went last time, I bet he's looking for a macro game.

What has MVP done to have people not like him


Common complaint I hear is that his play isn't interesting enough. He's a very very solid terran player, and in a way he's the safest of the bunch. But I think it was sort of shown perfectly vs MMA that though his macro might be the best, he's largely a turtle-to-max-then-win player.

Not saying that's all he does. I know he can do any strategy in the book, but his "style" seems to fall back on security. Players like MMA are fan favourites for his risky drop play and unique builds. MVP's risk-taking is low, and though he often wins it's usually pretty safe.

I'm sort of a fan, but his safety can make some games a little dull and so I'm not as much a fan of his play as I am for players like DRG and MC.

Not always true, the crowd loves MMA because he has a cool personality and did that hadouken ceremony.

I can't believe they are allowing close positions in a tournament like this. Once again Blizzard caters to the casual fans to such a degree that it ruins the game for the top players.

I just can't stand it when gaming companies do things that are obviously stupid. How can they make such good games yet make things so imbalanced when they could easily fix it?

Oh yeah I forgot... money.

Both Sen and MVP play a little too orthodox in ZvT. MVP always opens reactor hellions, and Sen always opens some variation of roach-ling. These builds and timings could be exploited by someone who knows them.

For MVP, I think his focus on TvT for the GSL finals might be the reason. For Sen, I think he has a harder time because if he practices with people in IM, then they know his builds and he'll need to find other practice partners to prepare unorthodox builds with.
