I feel that if any player has earned the right to be cheesy, it's MVP. And given what Blizz has stated recently on balance, I can't say I blame him.

When Blizzard even admits toss has an advantage late game, these are the types of games you are going to see...

don't blame MVP for using his head.

It's not MVP's fault Parting is playing so bad!

The only problem is people will say "TvP is fine. A terran was in the finals last GSL".


Those same people would have said TvP was imba if it was a PvP finals. I wouldn't really be concerned about people who think the GSL is the end all of balance.

For the people that say Mvp is playing cheesy. That's what he has to do. Terran does not have an answer for Protoss late game, so they must win early to mid-game. Mvp is the smartest player in the world and he has been showing it.


I agree.

Protoss complain that we need to adapt to the current TvP meta-game.

Then MvP shows how to play TvP and Protoss whines again.

It's funny seeing some Terrans complain that 1-1-1 isn't viable anymore. It's still quite potent.

I think you didn't notice how MVP hit an earlier timing and played an almost flawless game, that's not the standard hurr durr 1-1-1, this looked extremely hard to execute.


MVP had perfect positioning and decision making, he did abuse the map and Parting didn't break the rocks to flank.
Also MVP did micro his banshees on one side of the engagement while focus firing with his tanks and microing back his marines.
That is incredibly hard to pull off and also Parting did fail on his defense.

Well, 1-1-1 is still a viable strategy, you just need to be executing it better then your opponent is executing his defense.

At the prime time of 1-1-1 an inferior player could win with it against a superior protoss, now it's back to the better player wins.
Just ahead of time, know your addiction's not a crime. It's just a smaller part of who you want to become in the end.

When did MVP become such a cheesy player?


at the very moment Blizzard decided he shall not play late game vP



He wants to win...

Blizzard themselves said Terran needs to kill P in Early/Mid game


I would love to see T late game buffed. BUT early/mid PvT should be rebalanced too.
I don't read any terran complaining about that...

The whole matchup needs to be rebalanced. Take away our early game advantages and make it more equal, buff Terran lategame to make it equal there.

That's what I want


Agreed. Nerf 1-1-1 and and early marauder pushes and buff terran late game. That would probably mess up TvZ though.

It's been over since MVP pulled his SCVS in game. Parting really loses steam in high pressure situations like this =/

I feel like the fact that MVP knew from when he was set up vs Naniwa, he would only meet protoss, plays such a huge factor in this.
Third game, he's gonna macro cheese, me thinks.
SC2 Archon needs "Terrible, terrible damage" as one of it's quotes.

Isnt MVP just following the strat published by blizzard lol? Terrans please win before 20mins

I like this way of thinking.

No seriously Mvp KNOWS he cannot win against TRIPLE (for those who cannot count, it's HT, Colossi and Archons) AOE Protoss. + 3/3 chargelots WRECK you. Until they give hellions spider mines, I doubt Mvp will even bother playing longer than 20 minutes.

1-1-1 is still dangerous and viable especially on Ohana.

Mvp is playing really smart, though i would have liked to see more macro games = /. Remember the days where Mvp said "Any terran doing 1-1-1 should be banned from GSL"? :D

MVP is gonna all-in three more times, and Parting is going to do some sort of safe opening in the next three games and die.

I'm so sick of the fact that our audience appears to dislike a high tension all-in game over long single-a-move battle macro games.

I mean, a close macro game is the best, don't get me wrong. But it seems TL will give a good rating to a long game with 1 battle than a short game with a close battle. Are minerals being mined that exciting? =/


Exactly. I was holding my breath for both players on the push. I thought it was a rather exciting and good match.


I was practically shaking watching the interaction between banshee, bunker, etc with parting's stalkers and immortal control. It was quite tense

but we can see mvp just has better awareness and control. parting lost a few stalker and zealots to hold command without doing anything
