He was scouting for proxies all games, I was pretty sure Naniwa would find the proxy raxes. I am not sure about the delayed gate, I think he delays it in his gas build (?)

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
I like that you sometimes can throw in a cheese to catch really greedy play, but when the cheese gets scouted you should lose. MVP winning that last game was just silly.

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.
I dont see how thats possible. He had 4-5 scvs. one builds the bunker, marines defend it. If naniwa pulls probes marines just shoot them down, cancel the bunker when it goes low enough and falls back.
...then goes back with the next scv and builds the bunker again and repeats, while massing more and more marines. Really dont see that as a viable counter when mvp is gather CONSIDERABLY more minerals at home and producing off 2 rax vs 1 gate.

Cool. Naniwa got banned by you guys for "not fighting with honor". gg

doesn't matter about gas build...you can still get a gateway at 13 and still make probes

I'll just leave this here.
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.

Let's hope that next season he will be able to relax a bit, and now he has time on his side. He does not need to play a crazy amount of games within a couple of weeks. He can practice in a more balanced way.
Agreed. Still a shame the series went the way it did. Would love to see some long macro games.
