Ugh, Squirtle, why attack there?! I mean right now that doesn't even seem like something you think when you're dumb. He had faster third as well(Squirtle).

Classic is going to have the most absurdly sick ball of death soon.

...Or he's just going to kill Squirtle now.

Actually many korean pros are saying that (source Artosis, god of everything) MKP is not that frightening IRL, but on the ladder he's almost unbeatable.

That's ladder, and ladder maps are way different from GSL maps which don't favor MKP's style. A lot of "early game" players do really well on ladder like alive, but you can tell a lot of them aren't super strong with late game management.

Of course he is almost unbeatable on ladder, with ladder maps his execution can win him as many games as he wants.
It has to do with the maps more than anything else imo

He raped AOL 1 aswell and this was not on ladder maps. He won because he is better at his home/teamhouse playing online Tournaments.

Not really, he did well in WCG too, he almost always lose to Mvp, or bo1 groupstages, but yes he plays safer offline than online, may affect his results quite a bit.

If you are Protoss or Zerg, you SHOULD be frightened of Marineking, whoever you are. It needs a really good TvT Player to beat Marineking in a Bo Series. That he fails to MVP, well it might be mentality at some point, but nevertheless MVP is best TvT player in the world by far, so no shame that he keeps losing to him (in his weakest MU), as nearly everyone does. People saying that are seeing themselves as favorite against Marineking are either TvT experts or just dumb.

So? He still loses online tournies, it's not like he's unbeatable like you say at all. Also, I've watched those games, and it's not like he executes better than I see him at live tournaments. His opponents are just much more prepared. He's made it to enough LAN finals to the point where you can't discern performance quality, but his opponents in the live finals are typically 10x better like MVP.

"He is almost unbeatable on ladder"

Idk why I'm bothering to talk about this when he didn't even play today, but he has really volatile results because of his builds. It's really not a mystery, but he's had success in high pressure situations like up and down, and gotten deep enough in live tournaments to the point where I'll say he doesn't have nerve issues.

Same with Bomber. He's said so himself that he doesn't have any issues with nerves, and I've never heard of MKP saying anything about it either so people should stop speculating random things like that. The only thing I've heard MKP say is how good of a player MVP is.

I don't think MKP has nerve issues. You don't make so many deep run into GSL finals if you have serious nerve issues. But i certainly don't think he has a strong mental aspect to him, in that sense that a loss in a series can rattle him really hard or that he can screw up leads.
