A lot of people here are hating on MVP because he all-inned and cheesed but they are forgetting (or don't know) that the BoxeR they all love was known as one of the biggest cheesers in Starcraft history.

Cheese is just a part of the game, it keeps you sharp and punishes greedy play.
If there would be no cheese everyone would go 5 nexus before gate.

In the end everyone in the GSL is just playing to win. Bitbybit showed us that you cannot win on cheese alone, but cleverly mixed in cheese against greedy opponents (Naniwa, IdrA, some Parting build etc.) gives you an easy win, might tilt them and keeps them on their toes for the rest of the match.

The difference is as the time goes by the game is harder and harder.

Curious, have there been any recent holds against Proxy/Mass Rax lately? I can't seem to remember any Protoss holding it and going on to win the game. Will probably have to quote this multiple times at the rate this thread is going.

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 problem with that line of thinking is it's the fierce competition which creates the 'skillfull starcraft 2' (which is a loaded statement anyway, when you play someone like a fucking fiddle the way MVP did in this bo5 it's surely worth something). That need to win at all costs and putting an emphasis over winning as opposed to giving a great show is what gives us the nail biters and the moments of brilliance, because they come from two talented and well trained individuals giving it their all on the big stage. It also gives us the cheeky / mindscrew games where one player can see the blindness of his opponents and relentlessly abuses it, even if people outside of the game can see the noose the victim has walked into.

"Cheese" or "Build Order wins" are also a product of this - you take the good with the bad, and you can't have one without the other.

I don't really have any emotional investment in either of these players though, just my observation.

I think the rage is warranted. Sure calling him a faggot etc might be a bit hard but be honest, did you enjoy the games?...


Jon was trolling as usual lol

had to stop that first bunker at all costs...

this is why all progamers compare MVP to Flash ~.~


I dont think all progamers do this...

Furthermore, making a bunker, wow so impressed with that skill. Must be nice to be able to pull scvs to buffer super high dps units. Not that naniwa could do the same mind you, as protoss actually need to have workers mining, mules are pretty funny.

wish i could chronoboost cannons into terrans base or other such absurd cheeses...


if naniwa had pulled probes to stop the first bunker, he'd have won the game. he fucked up, plain and simple. It's nothing to do with balance.

and lost 1/2 his probes resulting in a loss 5mins later. go back to gold kid.

Oh and Bisu is a damn hero.



Just another video for them to ignore like the boxer one. It's only a game ruining cheese if it's sc2 apparently. It's like having a really racist grandma. That's just the era she lived in.

The Terran bonjwa speaks.

Now you shut your mouths, you haters.

If Flash bunker rushed or Bisu cannon rushed or Jaedong 4pooled, would you all be like "OMG SKILLLESS FAGGOT NOOB; GO BACK TO SILVER LEVEL SCRUB; RUINING ESPORTS, CANCELLING SUBSCRIPTION BLARGHSPARGLE"

Nope.

And if you do, I will sit atop my White-Gold Tower and be like... LMAO.

Didn't alot of people do this when Flash cheesed bisu? @_@

don't get why so many people raging on the other player. players both played/strategized well - series was horrible to watch, not worth any amount of money or the 5+ hours of sleep I lost to stay up. i guess this community is the same as every troll-haven - not coming back.

Or that terrans can wrap in 15 zealots RIGHT after a lost engagement? right?

Anyways, grats to MVP. And grats to Naniwa as well for doing well this season. Looking forward to his play next season.

People need to understand that MVP studdied Naniwa for the past weeks and spotted holes in his gameplay. Holes he attacked specifically with his play today. He just did what he had to do to win, and he did it. Deal with it, Naniwa lost because he got figured, and then owned.
