Brilliant showing of MKP - absolute perfection.
This this, a thousand times this.
MKP's control is unholy. I'm not even talking about his kiting or anything, its the subtle movement of 4 marauders and 3 marines at a time within the overall ball to maximize firing surface while minimizing losses, its the little pre-positioning tricks to force favourable engages, its the perfect drops, its the abusing of colossi range, keeping his forces on the very edge of the sweeps and even timing it out to avoid them.
Skill cap? We ain't seen nothin yet

I have to wonder why MC went for fast 3rds in both games - more units/upgrades may have been better, perhaps? It's been kind of the protoss style lately ever since parting started taking 6 min 3rd base. Usually you see them take a fast 3rd and then power up on a lot of gates, though and then get double ups and aoe
Yeah, but both games MKP hit before the 3rd base started to pay for itself and either took out the third and/or caused significant army losses for the Protoss while safely taking his 3rd. (Also, as EV is a small map, going for the 3rd was risky and I don't know why MC choose Antiga.) And yeah, it is a "meta-game" shift by some Protoss for that fast 3rd base - if so, MKP really bored into it and found some exploitable weaknesses. Kudos to MKP though, he played brilliantly. Terran (and Zerg) played at the highest level are beautiful to watch.

He beat Genius in GSL, any other ZvP's that people can remember? He has the best ZvP in the world.
Best in Korea.
Never thought I would say that. Perhaps I am just buying into the hype too much.

Four streams and no games on any of them? I am more than a little disappointed.
Edit: And as soon as I say that stream 4 starts up

BTW the viewing experience is incredible. The best thing I have seen in SC2 so far, im happy that I bought the HD pass.

If your screen goes black, it's because they ran and ad and your adblock stopped it. Turn off your adblock or deal with having to refresh.

I'm still getting a little lag from time to time, but I can look over it easily.

Why do I always have to refresh the page after the commercials at every MLG? Does anyone have a solution for this besides using the twitch.tv links?

Brilliant showing of MKP - absolute perfection. Yes but you should keep in mind that MKP was far ahead in upgrades for the whole game. Of course it was amazing control but a big part of winning this game was also that MKPs build worked out so well. When MC scouted his super fast double ebay 1-1 was already done or almost done.
So? There is no faster option to scout that build. Please don't make it sound like a cheese, otherwise every Protoss double-forge build would be as well. MKP was save against most stuff, and you can never be safe against everything. Some people just don't want to see good play.
Without his control, the 2-2 upgrades wouldn't have won him the fight. MC had a very early 3rd.

He definitely found some sort of weakness because PartinG was beating tons of people with it but he keeps getting rolled by Marineking and then lost to Ghostking
