As usual, don't player bash, don't flame, and don't balance whine. Failure to heed this warning will have consequences.

Honestly I don't know what could MVP have done to prevent this from happening.

The only thing he could have done would be to go Tanks from factories but he would have gotten raped by the Mutalisks.

Even though the harass were more than exceptionally done, he still lost....

Geez


The harass was bad. He lost his first 12 hellions for basically nothing.


Yeah, it was ATROCIOUS. It's pretty clear why MVP lost the game. The only time his harass was really good and killed significant drone numbers was when VortiX's army was already made and halfway across the map, when MVP needed the hellions at home to buffer damage.

MVP also needed to pull more scvs.

This is why I hate balance whine so much, it permeates everything.

Mvp vs. Vortix Game 4:

Cloud Kingdom, Mvp bottom left, Vortix top right

3:00- Mvp opens barracks first at his ramp. Vortix opens hatch first and drone scouts to make sure Mvp isn't doing anything too crazy. Pool goes down, and then Mvp expands.


5:00- Double gas for Mvp. 4 queens out for Vortix, powering drones hard.


8:00- Fast starport for Mvp, cloak banshee on the way. 4 hellions out to scout. Lair going down.


10:00- Banshee mis-micro, but hellions doing decent damage. Not fantastic harrassment by Mvp. Spire on the way. Mvp tried to take third base but had to lift to lings.

... I still can't believe zergs at this level (with their map control and knowing it's coming) loses to hellion run-bys.

Sure it is. That's exactly what Zerg did. Baited thors and swapped to roaches.

Not everything is a whine.

Sure that's what happened that game. But I think Asha speaks generally. Which isn't fact.


It's his appraisal of mech in TvZ, not a statement on Zerg being overpowered/abusive/whatever.

Yes but it's not fact. Which was my entire point.


Okay, you win this semantic argument that no one else was involved in.

Tasteless shouldn't be allowed to observe ever again. This is pretty abysmal. Why not use one of Day9 or Kaelaris on a separate computer to observe?

Haha, i guess i see why Incontrol said "the problem with day9's commentary might be that it is often very very negative because he was a pro gamer himself."

wut, when did he say that?

i feel like it's the complete opposite, day9 makes every mediocre move sound super awesome.


Yesterday. And we're thinking about 2 different things. He is very enthusiastic, yes, often praises the decisions, even the simple ones. But just like that, he is pretty much the only one who goes all like "This is a terrible, terrible decision due to A and B." Other casters do that sometimes, yes, but they always go like "he couldn't have known that." But day9 does that fairly often with less excuses. That isn't a bad thing. It's... different. Just that it kinda sticks out if you keep a track of it. People generally don't do that because "i wouldn't have done better in that position, i'm no pro gamer." My demigod day9 doesn't have that thing. He was one.
For some things, reason is not necessary.

they need to clone STLegend, if you are used to GSL casting this is pretty poor performance

12:00- Mvp going hardcore bio this game. Lots of barracks. Mutalisks popping out. Three base for each player. Vortix up 20 supply, 110-90. Infestors on the way.

Bad planning. Any respectable big league at this point needs a dedicated observer.

Hmm..Just tuned in and Day9's stream is laggy. I wonder if it's just my connection. Although, there was no lag yesterday. :/
