Thanks alot for this! Was so happy to be a part of it! Now it's time to go before the LR thread turns to shit about balance, good vs bad games and discussion about who is the greatest player / bonjwa term as per usual  | ||

None of these games were..>_> | ||

Under half the number of wins of Zerg, under a third of those of Terran. Hell, half of what MVP has managed by himself. Terran has as many or more Code S medals in every category as Protoss and Zerg combined. And way more overall. Last season Zerg beat Protoss in the final. This season Terran beat Protoss in the final. Terran players: "Whaaa Protoss is OP." lolk I'm actually not all that unhappy with the principle of MVP getting a fourth championship because he's a great player. But it seriously bugs me when I see constant Terran whining in light of that kind of record. A record speaks about the past and not the present. Look at the statistical racial balance in THIS GSL, rather than the curve over the past 2 years. Balance is present, records are past. I'm not sure if you're trolling or just.... silly. | ||

But Starcraft is all about context. If there is an amazing game on ladder it doesn't mean nearly as much as a moderately good game in a major tournament. As you pointed out it wasn't an amazing game in terms of skill and decision making. However it was amazingly tense. As someone else said, it was the similar to the PL finals between Bisu and Flash (except with the races reversed). | ||

I mean, there was the sweet flank, but everyone knows flanks can be sweet. It was nerve-wracking but not objectively high-quality. Ignoring if the game was good or not, that doesn't hold though. I mean i know how to micro my MMMVG, but still I'm quite impressed with the pro players control as they micro it a lot better than me. Same can be said about 11/11, I might know how to do it, but in this case MVP did it a lot better than I would ever be able to do it. | ||
