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

Mvp vs. Nerchio Game 2:

Cloud Kingdom, Mvp at bottom left, Nerchio at top right

3:00- Mvp opens with his barracks at his ramp. Nerchio goes hatchery first and drone scouts. Then pool goes down.


5:00- Mvp throws down a CC at his natural. Double gas for Mvp, gets factory.

GSL 2012 Season 2 says hi where he cheesed every semi-final game and then the majority of the finals.


In GSL season 2 he abused his opponent's evident inability to hold cheese. It's perfectly valid. He also won almost every type of game possible.

MVP has proven he can play this game every way possible for years now, how can people be this blind?

You must play Terran and have never as Zerg tried to hold a proxy-2-rax allin when going hatch first. It is far from 100% holdable.

actually, if the rax is scouted and zerg has a spine or two, it's quite difficult for terrans to do enough dmg

Don't understand why MVP would all in. Zerg is completely invunarable against early game agression.


I'm sure you understand this game better than MVP. Silly him, he doesn't know Zerg is completely invulnerable against early game aggression

Still he's totally right about Mvp's bad decision, + 2-3 Spines are nigh impossible to break with Marines/SCVs.


Mvp didn't know how Nerchio would react after his Two rax.
Most zergs would have droned harder and not made the second spine after getting behind.

MVP has always been known to throw some all-ins to kill greedy opponents or just keep them honest in the rest of the series.

It is very easy to hold with basic drone micro. But Nerchios Dronedrill that game was all but basic :d

Doesn't change anything about what I said. Hatch first can hold proxy 11/11, especially if the proxy is as far as Mvp did. If proxy 11/11 auto-won against Hatch first, this opening would obviously not be standard in ZvT.

Is hatch first actually better than pool first for holding 2rax? Because you have the creep for spine and the production?
