Haha how did Monci beat MVP


When was Mvp especially good at TvP?

Are you kidding? When he has over a 60% win rate and just won a GSL beating Naniwa, Parting, and Squirtle along the way? Nice joke


Derp derp derp Mvp studies his opponents and devised clever all-ins that allow him to barely win a GSL. Now he loses 2-1 to an opponent whose style he doesn't know and everyone is shocked. I feel like I'm posting in Reddit today.

Then go post there. Did you even see the finals? As someone just noted, Mvp played more macro games against toss than all ins last season, so stop spouting bullshit


Two of Mvp's wins in the finals were "cheese" wins. Including a sub 10 minute game on Daybreak. And a double proxy rax to win the finals. Half of his finals wins were cheeses, which I honestly respect a lot because he's one of the smartest players out there and he knew it would work. Don't try and say he did great against P in macro games though.

Read the recaps. Actually do research before telling people to stop "spouting bullshit".


Haha did you seriously try to say a marine/hellion drop expand build is cheese. lol.

It's not an example of a "macro game" but it certainly wasn't cheese xD

Guys relax. MVP will probably beat Nightend up badly, advance to the final, meet MC and win the whole tournament. Dont judge too early.

Sase so terrible commentator. You guys so polite not to hate it loudly!


lol next thing you know he doesnt advance from his group.

Then 80 pages of MVP fanyboy tears will spam the LR


Well to be fair, and this is coming from quite the MVP fan, the level of play he's showing right now is not fit for advancing to the next round, regardless of previous accomplishments. He's playing so insanely sloppy..

the top 50-100 Korean players can probably beat the top 50 foreigners O.O

And they can all probably loose to them aswell


Why is the word "lose" so hard for everyone.


Dunno maybe because everyone is using the english language pretty "loosely" when they post on the internet :>

Monchi's fast hidden third wins him game 3. Disgusting series.


I know, MVP should have played better and scouted it. He should have assumed his opponent would take risks against him.


Yup, should expect inferior players to do this a lot.

I guess he was just overly scared of another 2 base all in after the game before rather than Monchi going the other way and hoping to get away with greed.


Did you play this flute when Mvp cheesed the hell out of Naniwa?


Chill, he's not whining about it (well not exactly), Monchi is undeniably the inferior player and he'd know that his only chance would be to play tricksy.


Not really his only chance, the other chance would be mvp making mistakes ( yes that does happen to the UNDENIABLE BEST SC2 PLAYER OF ALL TIME )



Well I mean...a group of 11 schoolchildren could play Barcelona at football and hope they screw up but if they want to win it might be a better idea to run into the box with the ball and dive like a motherfucker.


And get Messi sent-off Busquets style!

So, if Nightend (regardless of his match vs golden) takes one map of MVP, MVP is out but please correct me.

Why on earth they let DBS playing 3 games in a row and Nightend 2 really important games in a row?
This is bad scheduling.

The Ret prank is funny. He may have a point honestly, but I don't think you can expect casters to know or gather everyone's twitter handle at every event.

The only person who's actually done well in Korea of that bunch is Naniwa. And you only listed 4 while I listed 11.
Actually who else would you list? Nerchio, HuK, and Sase maybe, but that's it lol.

The funny thing is, you can't. And there are about 50 koreans in code a and b that could beat any of those guys.

I hope the HOTS game Grubby's casting for WCS is the v Battle Report. v is by far the worst nonmirror matchup.

I definitely see MVP gravitating towards mech in HOTS.

The build in game 1 was an expansion build, squirtle just failed at defending. go rewatch the vod you can see him plant the CC on the low ground as squirtle tried to attack him with the stalkers.


Good point. I stand corrected. Either way, what he did in GSL doesn't have bearing on how he did against Monchi - he didn't scout a hidden third. He didn't have more than one bunker against the templar/archon/chargelot all in in game 2 (watch Thorzain play against that build). And he caught up in game 1 because Monchi had a horrible engagement up a ramp where he lost 3 colossi without target-firing a viking. Sometimes great players have bad days. I hope Mvp makes it out of his group though because he's fun to watch when he's on.
