Cant we just pretend we had a PvP finals and then never speak of having such a thing again?


It's a decent match-up these days. Really. It's not TvZ or anything but I still think we should have one.



PvP is either 1-2 base timings with blink vs not blink immortal timings or it goes to 2+ base boring collosus games where either side doenst really want to engage because other is in good position. Thats the biggest problem that even when they hit late game the late game is collosus so its boring.

Carriers!!!

It's still "80% luck, 20% skill"

===

Time for DRG to make MC his bitch


It probably has more luck involved than any other match, thats true. But it isnt boring to watch anymore like it used to be, even though there's still too many build order wins.

Though its really a moot point cuz DRG is the best player in the world...

Because every PvP that don't end early looks the same : players do stuff, there's a big engagement where one player get a 100 supply lead and win thegame


Basically, whoever has more collosus will win

PvP so zzzz

Pretty much the same level of excitement as "WILL HE GET THE VORTEX OFF OR NO?"

You really think MC vs Seed would last 7 games?

PvP is all about mindgames. MC is the master of mindgames. Seed is not.

Erm. Seed is the guy who invented hallucination fake builds.

You think he doesn't know mind game?

So mediocre he has 2 GSLs and the best PvZ in the world.


JYP bro,at least from gomstats and tlpd



Correct, JYP and Seed currently has the number 1 and 2 spots in GSL for best PvZ.

You could generalize that way about a lot of things.

The point is the PvP Micro Wars can be fun, we might even see some new army compositions to counter the Colossus ball.
Incremental change is the Democrat version of Trickle Down economics.

PvP is cool up until the point where both players go double robo colossus. After that it's easily the worst MU in the game.

If MC or Seed won a PvP finals using Carriers I think it might save the unit from the chopping block
But do either of them have the balls to be that legend

MC will always have haters. He made his name with timing attacks, so no matter how incredible his macro is people love to discount it


I still don't know why people are so hard on certain playstyle, especially all-ins, timings, and cheeses....

It's based on a huge risk, insane control, and (for timings) perfect mechanics...

But heh.... "macro macro macro macro macro macro".

if thats not normal, does anyone have a clue how to fix this?

that's normal, it's gom being terrible as usual


damn, every season i tell myself there's no way i buy another ticket until they upgrade the quality of their stream, and then comes the playoffs... :/


I love gom's quality, feels really nostalgic watching this .. like it is year 2004, I am 15 again watching my first BW vods from random chinese sites.

Plus you can always play guessing game if supply of players is 2 or 3 digit number.

guessing supply is actually pretty easy, try guessing hitpoints of an unit, if the casters don't comment on it, you'll never now (meanwhile legend pointing it out with mouse cursor...)

And that's why tanks don't work in TvP.


They work just fine when MarineKing makes them.


They worked just fine getting Byun to the Semis. Somewhere MKP hasnt been for a very long time.


Except Byun didn't use tanks in his previous series vs Protoss. Whereas MarineKing has defeated various high end Code S Protoss with siege tanks?

Good one though.


What are you talking about ? Did you see his games this season ?

He used tanks past the 15 minute mark in a grand total of 1 game. A game which he ended up losing mind you.

Tanks work for 1-1-1 aggressive builds and as a build to help getting a secure 3rd, but beyond that they're just never gonna be useful. MMM balls are much much more efficient.


http://www.gomtv.net/2012gsls3/vod/67552

Thats 1 and he won it. . Im nitpicking but its more than 15 mins hue. The other few wins are mostly pretty short. Its only 3 series worth anyway. Averaging a marine tank game every series is regular enough.

The genius game later was a flop yea which is what your talking about

And alllll that aside. Why does it matter that mm balls are more efficient late game?That has nothing to do with Byun playing marine tank to win to win games. Crucial games. Pointless digression

His other effective wins were deviations of early 2 rax aggression. He didnt really win any long games because his general style doesnt lend itself to that. ANd I dont blame him, its fucking terrifying worrying about late game toss.

You trolling? MC is NOT mediocre at all. He has the best PvZ in the world or top 3 at worst.
