That warp prism... Had he made more use of it he's have a great chance instead of just losing 500 minerals and production time on the robo I think he could've won

And why not just all in? I wouldn't remake the nexus knowing I'd be behind. Once you're behind in PvP you'll lose in most cases

Yay can't wait for the mixed BW/SC2 proleague. Will be a charmer!It will have:

-Balance whine

-Caster Bashing?

Everything a LR thread needs

Hey, I have an idea. Play PvT on broodwar and the rest on sc2. That's how they can make the mixed league awesome !


But what about the LR thread!?

I hope this series silences all the PvP detractors. The matchup is actually incredibly well-developed.

Best part is, even with MVP in the finals, even if MVP wins the GSL, terran players will still complain about protoss


That's what happens when a race is fundamentally overpowered for more than a year or a year and a half, especially in the game's early life. It gives birth to a special breed of fan who got so used to seeing that race win (good or bad players, but helped by their race choice) that he believes Terran should normally win by divine right. Everything else is "imbalance" for them. Terran have SEVEN fucking championships, Zerg has FIVE, and protoss have... *drumroll* TWO!!! but no matter, this is the natural order, this is what should happen, and if anything (i.e Protoss strong lategame) gets in the way, then they behave like the spoiled little princess who can't have her fourth dress made for yesterday.

No matter they have the strongest early and midgame, strongest harrassment, strongest turtle, strongest scouting ability (hi scan), strongest drop play, etc... just no matter. It isn't enough for them, unless Terran wins everything.

I congratulate MVP for his victory and I'm glad to see a person overcoming his problems, but let's be serious, MVP can be as good as he wants to be, but which other race would let him get away with so many gimmicks, mind-fucks, and such? If he was Z or P with the same wrist problems, he would have probably fallen in Ro16, IMHO.

God, I'm so tired of these little Terran posting princesses.
Bro you have NO clue how godly Mvp's offraces are. Ask around and people will give you the owndtv link where Mvp off-races as zerg and CRUSHES face. He can play any race and be absolutely boss. Not even an issue of balance between races - but of prowess.


I'm sure what you say is right. Everyone knows MVP is a top pro, yet he still plays T when it matters, does he not? .

And the point of my post wasn't a balance whine. I'm just fucking annoyed than Protoss can't catch a break, and even when Terran has won almost FOUR TIMES the GSLs that Protoss have, we get dozens of people bashing the race when they dare have one good season. Why? Because "normal" for them is 6-7T in Ro8 and 3-4 in Ro4, because that's what they have mostly seen.

I say wait until championship wins for each race are a bit less distant, no? MC's not a player known for his balance whines, but he once said "If I was Terran, I'd have won five championships". These games today prove that Terran is a perfectly capable race who can get two free wins out of 3 against the best PvT player in the entire motherfucking world (you can say Parting botched it, but hell, all-ins are way easier to execute than to defend, are they not?).

I'd say squirtle, but Hero definitely has a good chance as well (though I still feel Hero's nerves might play a role, especially since it's the finals.)

I'm rooting for Hero. I'm looking forward to the LR thread exploding in the final when MVP cheeses him.
It will be like watching two walls pushing against each other, with vitriol and nitroglycerine in the middle.

Another PvP win delivered to the first attacker. Squirtle attacked first, got a sick contain and capitalized. Beautiful play. Hero did respond correctly to the attacks. But I'm not a fan of him having all his stuff out in the middle of nowhere standing still. Thats bad in all match-ups
