Apparently some people are dumb enough to STILL be asking for it, so let's make things clear:

Do NOT ask for re-streams, and do NOT post re-streams.

Do not come here and muddle the thread by bitching about PPV.

I've been saying all along how not having an audience takes a ton away from the production. I will only go PPV in the future with a large live audience!

I'd be surprised if any of the top 16 didn't go to MLG, as they get all expenses paid trip which now has a much larger prize pool.

All expenses paid for a chance to win more money, yeah I doubt all of them will show up ;p

Are the regular MLGs all expenses paid? Because it was only those 4 invited koreans that got expenses paid in 2011, right? Not the pool players...

Awesome tournament, very smooth. Too bad there was no audience to make the ending awesome, but still a lot of fun. Hurray MKP!

One of the biggest tournaments of 2012? You sure JP? Its only 10K after all!


The line-up was pretty stacked, many people have said it's the most difficult tournament they have been in. Many meaning, HuK.

I assume you would have considered last year's MLG events major, right?

The winner got 5K iirc.


Big growd made them feel major, this one could have been a online tournament as well and it wouldn't have changed much.

I'm just pointing out his reasoning for it not being major was that it's only 10k.

How did he cheese at all?

yeah, 2rax bunker rushing is solid macro play!

The only cheese including bunkers was on metalopolis, the other ones were all 12/14 rax, without cutting VCE's and even if got scouted, it was hardly a game breaker for MKP.

Did you not just see the 4 base vs 5 base game that he just won? Gimme a break.

i didnt say he cheesed every game.


but last game was kinda disappointing, cause mkp took a huge risk and drg made the mistake to dont scout well enough. i dont think any non mkp fanboy would call that game really exciting

I don't get why people call it cheese, ya hes bunker rushing but most of the time hes also building an expo.... so if it fails he falls back. Isn't cheese when after you start that strategy , if it doesn't work no matter what you lose?

Wanted DRG to win but grats MKP! Fan of him as well!
THERES NO WAY HE CAN STOP THOSE HYDRAS!

MKP played the series-mindgame pretty good. Setting it up with regular bunker pressure in almost every game and then suddenly pulls a ton of SCVs (Metalopolis), and wins despite DRG scouting the Rax being lifted to lowground. Then he does a supergreedy quick 3-base + tech build that catches DRG off guard.

The individual games may not have been that great, but the way MKP strung them together in a series is quite good.
Such flammable little insects!

I think DRG pulled an idra that last game. He knew was definitely angry about the risky 3rd (which he should have scouted) and was behind for the push. That ultra mismicro was the last straw and he simply gave up.

Yeah marineking can only cheese and can't win a macro game huh?


rofl, are you serious? randomly hides a third cc while floating 500 gas and now he's the king of macro

In the early game spending 500 gas i no problem for terran, its just a few units and a few upgrades. Its not 500 "random" gas collected because its funny.


Not if you haven't got any minerals... He was essentially at 0 minerals while floating 500 gas. I do like his greedy strategy but it was certainly not optimized.

grats MKP

MLG needs to get rid of extended series and double elimination. Both are just bad. But I feel like there's no viewer at all who enjoys having extended series.

Double elimination brackets are also so much inferior to group play + single elimination brackets. The winnerbracket final, loserbracket final and grandfinals all just don't feel as epic as the semis/grandfinals in a single elimination bracket.
