MLG: Coming up on the Red stream!
NANIWA vs NESTEA: The Re-Killening

And immediately following that:
IDRA vs MC: The Gracken vs the Murlock

Go refill your drinks and get into pajamas- we're in for a long, glorious night.


MLG is loving these story lines playing out, how great is this. sick sick tournament!

Terrans when Toss complains about 1/1/1: it's an allin, stop playing greedy and expanding

Now look at all the hypocrisy when MVP loses to an allin while playing super greedy. He had 4 bunkers sure, but do 4 cannons help much against a 1/1/1?

No wonders even MVP doesn't have answer for this shit. LOL, build 4 bunkers -> lose anyway


Siege tanks > that.

Any TvP suggestion involving tanks (outside of a pre-planned early/midgame timing attack/all in) is made of stupid.

Hey guiz. I heard that if I get a quick 3rd orbital and double engineering bay and as long as I build 5 bunkers I should be safe against any protoss all-in. - sincerely, TROLL.

MVP fucked up the positioning mainly due to supply depots being placed as a semi-wall right next to the bunkers (why does T players still insist on placing depots to minimize repair surface area.. it's not worth it) If he had maximum surface area for repair along his bunkers, he could've held that because his +1 wep and stim finished up right on time. People saying he played "greedy" he went 4 bunkers and held off fac/starport for so long, what he did wasn't as greedy as you make it out to be.


He made the depots to minimize surface because MC was going to force field the bunkers anyways so there is no way to get a good repair anyways so its better to make the depots. The greedy build he did its just kind of a BO loss there is no way to hold that maybe if he got another couple bunkers up.

Disgusting seeing MVP lose toa blind all in like this despite being so incredibly prepared for it.

MC pretty damn lucky.

MVP made his 3rd CC almost at the same time as MC's 2nd nexus. If he would've gone a normal build he would've been fine.

This EXACTLY. A greedy build losing to an All-in? Must be unfair! Either that or MC played GREAT.


it's not really greedy. it's completely standard on any other map, but Tal Darim has no ramp and really hard to hold off all in. Mvp just read MC wrongly i guess.
I am literal scum.

omfg, this game made me so angry as a terran player. what more could mvp have done in terms of defense? how are you actually supposed to hold an attack like this one?

id be really curious for higher level players in here explaining to me what mvp did wrong that game....

He played greedy by going for a third CC. He had no Siege Tanks.

Siege tanks lol, who the fuck does macro oriented siege tank play in TvP? Goody?

Its crazy how when MVP loses to a timing attack that he prepared for perfectly, people just say "he played greedy", while whenever Toss loses to 111 or 3 rax or anything like that, its immediatly imba.


Because it's true lol

Just look at the MLG brackets, and tell me that Terran is OP.


Just look at the amount of Protoss tournament wins within the past 3 months and tell me that Protoss is OP



Just look at the number of terran nerfs and awful protoss play and tell me...

Greedy build??? He had FOUR BUNKERS! Plus, he walled off with depots, had great repair, and had stim. What else does he need?


He needs tanks or medivacs or more bio. Not a 3rd CC and double engineering bay + upgrading.

tanks? he knows everyone's gonna hate him if he builds tanks. not worth losing your fans over this

No interntion of America-bashing... But I did not think americans knew what El Clasico is

But yeah, it's a fine combo of 3 great things:
1: Two good players. Willing to macro or all in at any time (well IdrA after 12mins)
2: Rivalry always makes for better games
3: The amount of potential BM (and entertainment) is through the roof

Hey people, stop complaining about that game. MVP went 3rd CC before his 2nd rax and went for double engineering bay, had he not went for that 3rd CC he could have gotten more units to hold off the 6 gate. 6 Gate was the perfect response there for the protoss.


This is very smart man..... agree

Lol i am not disagreeing, but the thing that annoys me the most is that MC had no fucking idea that Mvp did that. It was a completely blind all in; but hey - it works, especially on a map like Tal'Darim


He might've seen that MVP does this often vs Protoss. it was the best decision on the best map for it.

having star sense wins games alot more than amazing strategy
