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 don't think MKP is happy until he scores a GSL win. MLG is peanuts compared to that. MKP isn't skilled enough to win GSL. Lettuce be serious: he can't play a highest-level macro game.
Well he is an absolute beast on KR ladder at least, which leads me to believe that nerves could be a problem for him in tournament games.
I don't think he's the best macro terran right now either, but players improve and MKP has showing better results again after a more lackluster period. If he gets the right motivation and mindset, I definitely think he is on a level with someone like Jjakji and could take a GSL win.

The reason people love MKP is the same reason why artosis dislikes him. He plays in a really risky way, and his games are almost always fast paced. He has great decision making and micro, which he utilizes all the time. He's really a player that knows his strengths and sticks to them. It's basically the same with HongUn. Artosis doesn't like them because they don't play the same passive "thinking" style that MVP, Nestea, Sage etc. do, so they are going against how they're "supposed to play" (according to Artosis + idra) ... hmmmmmmmm. Gonna have to disagree there. Sometimes he has good decision-making, but just as often, his decision-making looks absolutely terrible. He's risky. So when the risk pays off he looks like a genius and when the risk fails and he loses he looks like a terrible decision maker.
I definitely think its something that he's improved on from what we've seen so far this year.
Between this tournament and his games in Code S I've noticed that he seems to have more composure. He's being more calculative about the risks he takes.
In fact, he's looked really really solid in his games so far this year (except his games vs Genius and DRG in Code S where he was simply outclassed). I definitely think he's on the rise and I really hope we'll be seeing a lot of him deep in tournaments this year.

No, not really. 5/6 Games were some sort of Bunker Rush/Contain... No doubt that MKP is a good player but the finals were just not satisfying. At least in my opinion..

So how come other people are reporting that they got to watch MLG for free?

Okay. At least that makes me feel a bit better. I thought I missed out on the whole thing while there was a free stream available... I skipped it on purpose because there wasn't a free stream.

Yea, final wasn't great. But only reason for that was score between players DRG 11-1 MKP so MKP try every game bunker rush with 2 rax (only 1 game he go 15 exp first). The last game was preety decent, i think DRG could take it. 5 base vs 3 base, but DRG dont have upgrades and good army composition, he go big macro. MKP show cool build, bcuz he has 500 gas at 5 min game, he went double upgrades and tank siege mode. He make timing attack when have 2-2 bio + few tanks.|
Edit: I think that not listed on TL Calendar this event make huge difference.

You could of just tried the official stream or each individual stream via twitch.tv, most of them worked fine during the whole tournament up until the final match depending on what browser you used. The Pay Wall is now part of the "vehicle of esports", in other words, it can fail.

first mkp tournament win, yet no one will remember it because no one saw it. great job mlg as always. gotta go find some free rips
|
LOVE IT! Great performance and win.
People saying MKP will fall off. Blah blah they said the same thing a year ago. Kid has heart and crazy speed/ ability.
IdrA claiming MKP will fall off? THATS FUNNY.

What a terrible call from Tastosis on the biggest stage. That was a huge moment, despite their complete lack of awareness, but they were too busy trying to think of compliments for DRG to give it the emotion it deserved as MKP crushed through to his first major finals victory.

Just to be sure, only one of them was a cheese, the other bunker rushes were just pressure with a 12/14 rax.

By the way it's interesting to see that the only 2rax MarineKing used to "kill" was on metalopolis.
This map must be pain in the ass post-patch in a split map situation / TvZ in general now that ghosts aren't that good, especially with broodlords sieging the gold

Still exhilarated over his win :D I can't believe it!

Mvp and NesTea will probably fall off though or they might just become those Ro16 guys.
