How can some fanboys vote 5 stars for this shit.


If it were a standard no rush 15 game PvT where naniwa won all the naniwa fans would vote 5 stars.

vice versa,

furthermore it's smart (obviously not like homfggenius smart but still) for MVP both for himself and recognizing that naniwa is so greedy, and entombed is big.

6 Star the learning korean video though.

Naniwa is broken, just look at him. Doesn't even have Sase, Khaldor or one Startale member to go in and talk with him.

His least favourite map coming up, 3-0 for MVP.

????

Sase was just in there talking to him.
Looked like Wolf.

There's more chance of Wolf helping MVP than Naniwa.

And that's why MVP is a three time champion.


Because he is smart.
He is prepared.
He out-metagames the opponent.

Naniwa could probably win in a straight, stanard, classic game. But if MVP turns god-mode decision making on, then Nani has no chance in hell.

He BLINDLY 3-raxed. That's really how you out-meta someone?


It's only blind if you have no idea who you are playing... he's playing NaNiWa... the guy FE's more than when I see a TV advert with Jennifer Hawkins.

Look fellas.

Naniwa has had two Protoss favored maps in TvP so far and MVP has prepared builds to counter both of them.

I am pretty sure that if Naniwa chooses a map that MVP feels comfortable going late game on we'll see a later game, but as long as he chooses maps that favor Protoss late game we'll probably see MVP go for earlier game busts. That's just a smart way to play and if Naniwa was smart he'd pick up on what MVP was doing and compensate for it.


Believe me NaniWa understands it way better than you do, you just said obviously obvious stuff, but map picking is way deeper than this.



Well you'd think he'd play safer in that second game if he truly understood what I just said. Obviously he doesn't.

Mvp is better and more manner than NaNiwa, even when injured. We 'Mvp fans' don't crowd to someone just because they're a foreigner, that's just silly IMHO, skill is a much better reason to be a fanboy, and seeing Mvp making a recovery in this fashion WHILE GIMPED, is just astounding.

Why are people so fucking obsessed with respect and playing the game the way YOU want it to be played? It's a tournament the goal is to win it. Cheese or no cheese. You play the hand you think are going to win.


Idra syndrome. The game should only be played the "right" predictable way (as long as their preferred player wins, that is). But disrespecting your opponent, being a dick, that's ok and still respectable as long as you blindly macroed.

I don't see the big deal. Naniwa is known for FFE and is the reason why Leenock destroyed him at MLG Providence. Be it Brood War or SC2, in a Bo5, a lot of the top players throw in a cheese. Also, MVP has fucking exploding wrists. Why the hell would he want to play a maximum FIVE MACRO GAMES against a dude who loves going into the late game? His coach had to rub his wrists after the first set. For MVP, the second set was either a quick win, or it was a quick loss that meant he didn't have to put more stress on his wrists.

Holy shit THANK YOU.

Maybe some people will actually listen, but I doubt it.

nothing wrong with going forge expand. 15Nexus is a standard build PvT just as much as MVP's CC First build LAST GAME was greedy. i don't understand what you are saying.


Really? I never see forge expand against terran. Doesnt seem to be that great of a build against T bc of siege tanks.


my mistake, i saw the single second barracks timing and assumed it was the first rax. it's good against marine-FE. it's pretty new metagame.

either way even if the game doesn't say anything about MVP's skill, that was a pretty crappy game to watch - as soon as naniwa missed the scout it was an autolose.

could you please elaborate how many respects you lost?


Not to mention it was a prediction win built around the idea that he KNEW naniwa would nexus first.

NEXUS first people.

Holy shit.


I doubt he was counting on a nexus first, but he was surely counting on atleast a 1gate expand. The ramp to the natural is so big, a 3rax marine push would punish it hard. When he saw the cannons he realized he had to bring his scvs to have a chance of breaking that.

Swedish or not, you can't blame MVP for that build. If anything, it's questionable for Nani to go for such a risky build when he's already down a game.

Even though you can say MVP has better mindgames then naniwa, if its 3-0 im afraid we really have not seen any real indicator of who is better at this matchup. Game 1 was a really sucky misstake from naniwa that should never have happened, and game2 was bitbybit sillyness. GAME 3 better be good(((

Wow, people are so disrespectful to Naniwa. He practiced really hard for this and to go out like this. And people instantly start saying he's been on a luck streak and that he's terrible.


So what if he's been practicing really hard - if you aren't a fan, or are an anti-fan part of the fun is hating on him. The same way I really hate the Pittsburgh Steelers and love watching them lose and have bad luck.

lol terran hope?

The last thing the teran infested GSL bracket needs is a "terran hope" imo.


After how difficult TvZ and TvP late game has been, yes we do need a Terran hero.
All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.

why are the mvp fans blindly voting 5 stars? By no measure was that game 5 stars.


Same reason Nani fans are voting 1 star.
We vote for Veeps because he's king.

Deal with it. ♥

It's not a popularity contest. I'd say it was a 1 star game because it was a quick cheese that wasn't defended at all.

still having the balls to pull out that cheese requires lots of mind game skill. thats why we still praise Boxer's triple cheddars 10 years after it was done
