I think Shakuras is an awful map, and we were lucky to have gotten a great game on it.


Shakuras is ridiculous TvZ. All it goes to show is that maps that are too easily split in half are a bad idea.

so now when all is said and done, was anyone else frustrated as hell at mma for not building ghost the last 15 minutes of last game?

i personally was yelling at the computer saying "BUILD GHOSTS GODDAMMIT"


Me too lol


I was yelling why MMA didn't take out that sub 100 health hatchery on the bottom left sooner. A good 3 or mins allowed DRG to rebuild his forces and made it closer than it seemed.


It's one of those cases where the threat is stronger than the act. It forced DRG's army to position so far down that MMA could weaken the top bases again and again. MMA then manages to take it off with no losses when DRG finally decided to send his army up.

those high grounds needs to go man, seriously...

if you deny counterattack routes with the map architecture, at least make it open, and get rid of those annoying high grounds that offer zero answers for a zerg until broodlords

So happy i fought through my flu/fever and decided to watch this final all the way!! Even though i'm a big MVP fan, MMA managed to give me more goosebumps in game 7 than i ever had in SC2.

Fantastic finale with a fitting end/match-up/winner/victorious race that showcased the quintessential awesomeness of this year's GSL.

It is an opinion. I think SC2 is better than "regular" sports too.


thats fine, but to say regular sports don't produce incredible moments is purely wrong.

i think if the middle of shakuras was stretched, it would be better. When terran is all sieged up in the middle its hard as balls to take a 5th base and on because its so close to mid.

Split in half is not necessarily bad (for example, Antiga and TDA can be split in half), but when you can shell your opponent's 5th and 6th it just leads to one-sided games :T

I'm still amazed that DRG even managed to push MMA back to his main...

It's not about the preference, it's the point that sports has equally incredible moments, which you can objectively acknowledge.
Hell, it's about TvP.

MMA played brilliant. Just amazing. One of the most epic sc2 series I have seen thus far.

Was worth staying up till 5am for.

The funny thing is that 2 of the 3 games that MMA lost were to roaches. 3 of 4 if you count game 1 as a game that DRG should've won.

conclusion? Slayers terrans STILL can't beat roaches.
