A lot of people call stuff cheese that isn't, but in this case it is 100% cheese- he pulled 4/5 SCVS on top of the one building the raxes. If Naniwa defends it's GG. If you can't see that you're a bit touched in the head I'm afraid.

Even MVP fans can't think this series is good for e-sports in general. Do you think new fans will be attracted to this?

yeah!!! There is drama!! naniwa fan boys aka YOU, whining would make it so attractive. I in particular, am attracted to sc2 because of the weird things fan boys say when their favorite is defeated


Go play Call of Duty.

The reaction and polls are hilarious. The community is so immature when it comes to foreigners.


Except that these are the same reactions when Rain cheesed his way to finals.

Anyways, as to wrist excuses - I'm pretty sure Tastosis commented that MVP displayed perfectly fine ability to play in ro32/ro16.

I just remembered that we might have had an unusual number of BW people trying out Sc2 given the hype over this match and the earlier announcement.

Naniwa and MVP just killed ESPORTS !

I love Mvp for mixing it up with cheeses. Mvp is impossible to predict, because he will always mix in a cheese and was really smart about the maps and kind of cheeses he picked. The win was really well deserved.

Proxy 2rax and pulling SCVs isn't cheese now? It was very well executed, but c'mon, doesn't get much cheesier


actually an all in not a cheese lol

It's supposed to be cheese and fail if scouted. But since when does terran work within rules of RTS?

do what you have to do to win..


Competitive SC2 is to be entertaining. If everybody just proxy double raxxed or six pooled every game nobody would watch.

I'm cancelling my GSL premium subscription because of this series. I don't pay a bunch of money to watch retarded cheeses, I'll just queue in the fucking ladder for that retarded shit.

ok the amount of lols i give for people posting in this thread is increasing

OMG YES MVP SO DAMN GOOD BEST TERRAN IN THE WORLD


How does this show that MVP is the best terran in the world

Game 1 Naniwa screws up loses 3 stalkers and is behind

Game 2 a move win

Game 3 MVP gets his timing crushed

Game 4 proxy 2 rax vs late gate

MVP didn;t do anything special that MKP or Polt couldn;t do


Ha ha aaaha aha haaa!

I agreed with you until you said Mvp isn't good because THE BEST TvP PLAYERS IN THE WORLD could mimic his cheese builds

Fellow Faniwas,

Take solace that Parting/Oz saw that and have now realized that MVP doesnt want to play real games with his condition (understandably). He's not making it past the next round !


Will MVP face the winner of this match?


Yes.

The BW players cheese too. Go watch the Flash v Effort OSL finals (2010) for some perspective.


Absolutely but not every second game. This is just super lame

Uh, BW players cheese a lot too, man.

I dunno why everyone is so anal against cheese. Play to win, man. Naniwa should've won that last match but he underestimated how many SCVs MVP brought.

People hate cheese because it produces boring unsatisfying games. People are here to see skillful starcraft 2 not watch the same cheeses they could watch in a low master ladder game

The classless MvP bashing in this LR thread is shameful , people calling him a skill less faggot cheeser?

MvP crapped on Naniwa. Deal with it.



I wouldn't put it that way, he did what he needed to win given the circumstances. I bet MVP probably beats Nani in straight up macro games while his wrists are healthy and he's back to a normal training schedule. You don't become a 3x gsl champ without some seriously refined and well practiced late game mechanics and decision making skills.

Still, it raises some questions about sc2 as a game when you can scout a double proxy rax, chrono out zealots, and still lose. Maayyybbbee 2rax is still just a bit on the strong side, esp considering how insanely weak proxy zealots are in every matchup except pvp. I remember a long time ago they were experimenting with 5s reduction on zealot build time out of gateways, I hope they reconsider on this and give it another shot. If the situation were reversed and mvp did a late rax 1rax cc build and had scouted a double proxy gate, he could pretty easily defend it without needing to micro amazingly.


Squirtle and Oz, the new hopes. Hero is already dead imo. Oz should beat parting later tonight pretty handily.
Our Protoss, Who art in Aiur HongUn be Thy name; Thy stalker come, Thy will be blunk, on ladder as it is in Micro Tourny. Give us this win in our daily ladder, and forgive us our cheeses, As we forgive those who play zerg against us.
