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.


It was marine scv all in. Its one of the oldest and most boring cheeses to watch that there is. He blindly guessed right and won so I cant really call it anything but 1 star.

Gogo Naniwa, give us some decent games.

Well, at least Parting vs Oz will be interesting.

From the 3rd marine and the position it was in (coming from corner), Naniwa must have guessed it was just a standard 2rax open, and 2 cannons would have been fine. Bad luck for him that it was a blind 3rax (MVP scouted FFE last). I'm really not too sold on the FFE, as with proper denial of scouting there's no way to distinguish between 3rax and 2rax unless Naniwa suicides his scouting probe, and so there's no magical way to determine how many cannons to place. If anything, Nexus first into gateway gets units earlier. It's strange in that a FFE might stop a earlier rax-allin, but MVP hit at a time the 2 cannons weren't enough to stop MVP and Naniwa's gateway units were super late as a response. I'd like to say MVP was super gosu and on scouting the FFE, he went at that time but maybe not.

All the same, at seeing marines on his front door (after MVP had scouted 2 cannons), I think Naniwa should have immediately pulled more probes, as there's no way SCVs aren't coming with the attack. Or just suicide ramp and try to hold top (super unlikely).

But at the same time, Naniwa did do a build that, while it was a blind counter, was a perfect counter. Sucks for him as it was a 1/100000000000 chance but he took that risk.
RIP GOMTV. RIP PROLEAGUE.

Tasteless wants to call MVP "The best" but he keeps having to skirt around the word because people take offence to subjective views about "the best" =P

Well, with three games to go MVP can coin-flip his way to victory. Not the best representation of SC2 so far today :/

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?
He blindly 2 raxed, the 3rd rax was reactionary. NaNi didn't scout well enough and got outplayed. Deal with it.

The third rax was building before he scouted nanis location.


This is correct.
Starcraft 2 was designed to have a best race. You play the worst one.

If Nani gets 3-0'd I'm gonna cry. At least there's a PvP after this to cheer me up.

Naniwa needs to pull off a cheese build right now because MVP doesn't lose on Antigua.

I can't believe NaNiwa will come back the next 3 games and then later win this GSL


Won't happen. Antiga is MVP map and he does not lose on that map.
Entombed Valley was nani best chance to take a game but MVP meta-gamed him by going 3 rax.
Its over for Naniwa.

Its the same thing that happen to huk in GSL August.3-0 for MVP then.
3-0 for MVP now.


Just because you say it more it doesn't become true. He blindly 3 raxed, it worked, fine. But don't tell us he is a genius because of this. He is a genius for many many other reasons, but not for this.


Your tears, they taste so good.

Hopefully NaniWA gets a bit of luck in the next game.


Being good at only playing a standard game isn't enough to become a champ, Mvps variety of strategies is quite impressive to me.

Except MVP is actually a good player and mixes in cheese builds. BitByBit did nothing BUT cheese builds. Learn the difference, because there is quite a large one.
