The ironic thing is, that was MVP's own opinion as well. His expectations were really low this season and felt that if he won his 5th right away, people would kind of take it for granted and would diminish the accomplishment somewhat. I am sure he will come back stronger next season. Hopefully this gives him some time to treat his wrists and rest as well.

Yeah, he should just sit this season out and relax. Nothing is diminished from it, he has already established himself from last season. He should just chill, stream with his fans more, and maybe participate in foreign tournaments. Seems like Zerg is very very strong too at the highest level right now, so hopefully we might see Terrans adapt. But until then, I don't mind seeing Nestea wins his 4th.

Why do ppl say mvp won 4 gsls when one was an invitational? He only won 3 legit gsl, same as nestea. I don't see how you can count one with invites instead of 100% merit cut throat like normal GSL.

Code S is always invitation based on previous GSL results plus results in some other tournaments, as was the GSL World Cup. Slightly different to usual but hard something that doesn't count. Maybe only the 3 GSL Open seasons should count?

Lmao, this is why MVP fanboys are one of the most annoying bunch ever.

Excuses 101:

1. His wrists exploded
2. He wants to participate in foreign tournaments more
3. He said he just wanted to chill and not win it

=

He got totally outclassed. MVP is unbeatable anymore. People got better. His 3rd GSL title consisted of cheeses. I don't even count WC because if thats the case then MMA is a 2 time GSL champion.

For the most part, I agree with this.

I don't think MVP could have won this season even if he tried.

Heh, this is why MVP antis are one of the most annoying bunch ever.

No one was making any excuses. He was still trying to win. But he lost. However, it is a good time for him to rest and treat his wrists. Actually, he already said he doesn't want to play too many foreign events unless his team really wants him to.

MVP was never unbeatable, he was just consistently good. Most people counted him out last season and he ended up winning it (even though he lost series to both Hero and Ryung - again, not unbeatable).

And do you think it matters if YOU think his WC win counts? GOM introduces him as a 4 time GSL champion so that is good enough for me (Not sure if they list MMA as 2 time champ or GSL champ + Blizz Cup champ)
