When Squirtle first held it looked like he won the GSL. MVP really turned that around by trapping Squirtle's units with marines from two directions.

2 rax allowed a fight to last longer than 20 sec. What if SC2 was designed for 10 mins games and all minerals are here for the eyes?

Yeah, he cheesed.

If proxy racks delivers the best games than BitByBit was the most exciting player in sc2 history.

are you so stupid that you cant distinguish between that game and proxy raxs in general?


It was a proxy 2 rax bunker push. The fact that it was well controlled does not change the fact that its a standard prox rax. If you take off the prisoner of the moment outlook and well the condesending attitude than you would agree that the build was proxy 2 rax bunker push. It cant possibly be the best game of the series or even a good one.

Did you watch the other games? 3 games of MVP smashing. 1 game of bullshit TvP lategame. 1 game where a battlecruiser was made. And then game 6 where MVP throws away a won game because of a proxy pylon that he doesn't destroy and a 3rd base he doesn't know about....>_>




And the game where MVP got a third base that Squirtle didn't know about? You know, the one where they both walked by each others armies and MVP came out ahead because marines are good and Protoss can't wall?

And...?

This makes game 7 not the best of the series because?

Kinda sucks to see Squirtle outplay Mvp, only to lose something like that.

Grats to MVP though, squirtle definetly showed he is one of the top tier tosses


Squirtle did not outplay MVP in the first 3 games and he made mistakes throughout the series, inlcuding the epic game 5 which he won, he still had half his army sitting on an island and MVP made the mistake of not pushing right then before the 2nd mothership was out.

mma vs drg and mvp vs squirtle best gsl finals by far, so close games, the others finals only 4-0 4-2 4-1

leenock vs jjakji was 3-4 but I agree not as good as this one... This would have been the best if not for the anticlimactic cheese in the end.


Anticlimactic? That was a nail biter! I'm sure there have been numerous legendary Brood War games that were "cheesy" but end up going down in history (BoxeR's bunker rushes, ya?)

Mvp could have proxy 2-raxed in any of those last 4 games and he chose to save it for the ace match--there's absolutely no room for error for either players. Handling a rush in the moment for the biggest tournament of your life is pretty daunting--both for the executor and the defender.

lol, no? Which other race has range units that cost only minerals and can loose all the workers and still has income? Mvp took advantage of the fact that cheesing as terran is baby easy and no brainer.


So he played to win?
INSANE

God forbid he play to win.

I dont mind the cheese but after failing with that cheese you just shouldnt be able to play on and go for another round, thats what makes me sick...


MVP did a move that he deserved that win hands down... by flanking with those marines and trapping squirtle.

The joke that are mules strike again.
So sad to see such a great final end with this unbalanced shit.

Look at game 6 where squirtle had 42 probes before mvp even had 30 scvs, races are different.


NO DUDE mules are like 10 probes each and they can speed up ur production too! /s
All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.

That's exactly why MKP cheesed and won Game 7 against Nestea in GSL Open Season 2. Hahahahaha just keep crying.

There's "cheese" in most finals aren't there? It's strategic.


Honor to the winner and all you want, but he won 4 games


5 minute basetrade

5 minute basetrade

5 minute 11/11

That's slightly more than "it's strategic"



because the 1st game's trade was Mvp's decision? butthurt much

Biased? Where is the one game of bullshit TvP early game. Complaints would be a lot easier to tolerate if people could at least try to be objective about things.

Man... sad protoss can make its comeback...

Not really fair to do such a poll now, so soon after the game. All you people are emotional and stuff. Let it sink in, do a poll in a week or two.
