He's employed with the IPL and can actually live with his wife again lol, very much doubt he'll go back (sadly)

Marine/marauder/hellion shuts down that bust attempt so hard.

About that… does anybody know why he was even living at the GOMHouse? I always found that to be quite ridicolous.

Leenock is good
but he's rarely consistent.
His abilities fluctuate wildly from one month to the next.
I would put this on his practice discipline, as he is such a young kid.

Hey dude

Remember that time you didn't update?

Oh yeah, I do. It was that time like 4 seconds after the gg was called.

Get on the ball Seeker.

What, he cast for the GSL for months...

He just recently got employed by the IPL, hence him moving back to the states

What is up with Wolf? Was he replaced by a passionless mid-management accountant who works for Gom?

This is why I never understood why people liked watching MKP play, he is the most strategically inept player in the sc2 pro scene. It's really painful to watch, now that people are actually figuring out the game hes being made to look like braindead player he is.

Yeah I always hated his playstyle and see him as someone who will fade into obscurity once people just get better.

Strategically inept? He modernized many of the strongest Terran openers and strategies. 1 rax expand, 1-1-1, bio splitting, no wall off(yes this is a real strategy with more positives than negatives),

Oh, really? Tell us more about the positive aspects, then?

Benefits of not walling off for terran

1. Each time an army moves out the depot must be lowered (assuming it is closed at all times) This is approximately a split second to one second delay, in regards to early game pushes each second matters, and throughout the game this will add up.

2. We are in code S territory, these players have the ability to hold any early game attacks with just scvs/tier 1 units, this means that under the assumption that the zerg moves his units inside the main, he will lose his army to the defender (this is a big deal). If there was a wall off this would be discouraged.

3. Psychological effect on opponent, because a wall-off is so expected not seeing one may affect your opponents play in a negative way.

4. Saved mineral time from moving scv's to a farther location.

Downsides

1. Under the rare scenario that your army is soooo far away from your ramp that a zergling can run up and scout every single building, than this is a downside.

Pretty sure Polt started the 1-1-1 shenanigans.

No, according to PuMa and Rain, MKP is the inventor of the 1-1-1

lol 1/1/1 has been around since beta. It pretty much invented itself.

Yes I believe Husky dubbed it the "Destiny Cloud Fist" build or something to that effect. I don't think it was the same marine tank banshee timing attack though, but just a 1/1/1 build to get quick banshees or medivacs

1/1/1, meaning 1 rax, 1 fact, 1 port has been around since beta. MKP did not invent that, however the infamous marine/tank/banshee/raven all-in, he did invent, and that was a lot later than the original 1/1/1 invention.

1/1/1 allin was a specific response to greedy toss play back in the day. Not sure when the koreans picked it up but i find it hard to believe that it took more than a year for them to figure out its strength.

Think he went mech in the Up and Downs. I also remember a super sexy group of hellions and a single Raven, purely to take out creep tumours.

I really think MKP is afraid of going mech.
and I blame MVP for it.
Remember that GSL finals when MKP didn't mass marines and died a horrible death?
....I'm sure that left a mark on his bruised psyche

Stupid MKP making me actually do stats for this game as opposed to rolling over....

DAYBREAK

Leenock is 5-3 on this map in the GSL, while MKP is 2-2

Pretty good record for Leenock on this map, going 7-4 overall. Too bad all his losses are to Terran so far. MKP has a more standard record, going 2-2 overall, and 1-1 in TvZ. However, that win was against Leenock!
