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

I think Vortix's biggest mistake is attacking only from one angle. If he would have flanked more he would have won that g4 easily.


He just blundered with some decision making, but that is ok I guess. This is the best way to lose for someone new, with some training and experience(I think it must have been nerves) I do think he can take down someone like MVP. It was mostly his own mistakes that cost him the game, not MVPs play...

Really no hype at all in this tournament, such a quiet crowd :/

That and the lack of a decent observer are killing this for me.

MVP being a boss is the saving grace.

you do realize that the stage is inside a huge conventionhall including an even bigger lolcrowd right next to the sc2crowd and around 1-2k other ppl in the hall at other booths RIGHT THIS SECOND? its crowded and loud as hell, they dumb down the crowd volume level to a minimum though. which is in one regard smart (understanding the shoutcasters) but really hurts the atmosphere. and i know, i spent the last 3 days there.

Artosis transferred his curse to Fionn, who then gave it to wax (hopefully, I want MVP to win)

This is totally not true, he used to stream a couple months back and he would talk in the chat, and make a channel on NA and play 4v4 with fans.

Yeah, I actually got to play a game on his team vs Nestea's team. Was a lot of fun, and he was very friendly talking to us all.

Did Mvp win the game for your team?

It reached the late game and nestea's team threw away all of their armies.

Pretty much this. I didn't contribute anything because I accidentally picked random, got Protoss, and failed hard.

I honestly think given how jangbi played in the OSLs he could have done it if brood war continued.

I feel like they are being a bit harsh on Vortix for that base choice.

As soon as he get broodlords out he can control that high ground to both siege up MVP's fourth and completely control the path through to his fifth.

He just kind of botched the big ultra attack and that let MVP get good position before he was ready.

I consider him the first SC2 bonjwa.

im terran but i dont consider him a bonjwa yet, I would rather wait until he achieves something so huge that no other player can come close to overshadowing him.

4 GSL championships is pretty close to that. The players closest to that are Nestea, MC and MMA, and in two years I can't imagine many players, if any, will have overtaken him.

Especialy considreing that there were ten GSLs in 2011, 5 in 2012, and there will be probably less than that in 2013.

What gets me is that Mvp's playing really well at the moment with considerably less practice than most other pros along with exploding wrists. It absolutely kills me that he hasn't gotten them fixed yet because the level of play he could show then would be insane.
