I would say MVP did. He was the one who insisted on turtling that last game, Squirtle kept trying to go for a kill but couldn't due to PF's and what not.

I thought this map favored zerg but was ok in non Z matchups.

Actually if it wasn't for Mvp going for those BCs we wouldn't have this glorious GSL moment.

Everyone probably thought Tasteless was mindless trolling again when he mentioned to Archon Toilet the BCs


I DIDNT REALIZE WHAT THE ARCHONS WERE FOR LOL OMFG I WAS DUMB

i was thinking he was going archon cus they're food efficient, while he tries to think of a way to beat MVP

then i was thinking he should storm the BCs as they moved across the map; they're so slow so the HT could regen a bit

but then i see he was saving them for toilet xD



It's actually so sick and really, MVP thought he had already won and lost because of it. Like, personally I din't think it was the greatest game of all time but I love seeing a person go "Well... this is the one thing I could do to win" that's what squirtle did and MVP didn't think about it.

That game, the player who was better able to handle extreme late game won. Chances are MVP's wrists may have played a factor, but that's the way sports go.

Loved that that happened just as SCBW players are starting to switch over.
I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)

Why would you just read the LR if you can watch it though?

I believe zvp it's zerg favored, zvt it's not but I could be wrong.

As a Terran player archon toilet is fine imo. Mvp just really needed to split up his BC's, imagine if he had a giant concave around that? Sure it's crazy hard to pull off especially with Squirtle continuously backing up like that but if you make pure BC's like that you have to anticipate and do everything you can to avoid that vortex.

PvZ on the other hand...


Also he had the option of a single emp. Archon toilet in PvT has a few options to deal with it with the long range vikings the ghosts and splitting..

MVP would have won if he 1) stacked all his bc's and emp'ed them twice. one ghost can eliminate all energy from bc's

easy to do but he just didnt think of it. there isnt enough time in battle for BC's to yamato everything before feedback deals 200 damage to all of them. its best to just remove the energy from your BC's with one ghost so all your BC's have 200 extra health. it really sucks how the BC energy bar/yamato is essentially pointless/worthless against toss because of feedback but oh well


even without emp'ing your BC's, as long as they were spread to avoid vortex, or one EMP on the mothership, then MVP woulda won that game


BC's dont sukk. sigh i wish MVP won but now all the nerds are gonna use that game as evidence that BC's are not viable lategame TvP o well.



you can't beat all those voidrays with self-EMPd BCs. Yamoto crushes voidrays.. MVP got caught off guard by the Mothership coming in from the flank.. if he had EMPd it, vortex wouldn't have been a problem. And it's not like Motherships are difficult to EMP


People need to realize that MVP was just fucking with squritle already and was not playing that game seriously. This was not an indication of BCs usefullness/viability in TvP or late game or if an archon toliet is incredibly OP (which it is TBH but w/e not much you can fix about that in tvz where it's an actual problem). What we saw was MVP mass up planetaries and mass BCs. people need to just think about that sentence a bit and realize how little that game counts towards actual balance discussion.


Are you really saying that MVP was fucking around in a game worth thousands of dollars?


Ugh, nothing worse than people claiming the players weren't playing seriously. Not only do they have virtually no way of knowing, but why in the fuck would MVP not play his best when he's one win away from another Code S championship win

Are you really saying that MVP's long-term strategy was to mass up planetaries and battlecruisers into 30 of them and then move out? Common man...
