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

Nerchio missed his timing to hurt MVP's immobility with roach drops on multiple locations at once. Also he lost waaay too much drones, when some well placed banes can easily hinder those hellions. But if you face a maxed mech army head on, you will lose most of the times. WP MVP

Heh Mvp is my favourite player but I certainly don't think it was flawless play, a couple of poor engagements nearly cost him dearly, but overall he played a great game for the most part!

I've been really annoyed by his awful calls and over analysis this tournament. He's just blatantly wrong time and again

Lol ? Like a) playing BLs without any Infestors or b) attacking offcreep with Ultralisks from one angle in fortified Terran positions?


And getting away with it nonetheless. That's the beautifur thing.

Mvp vs. Nerchio Game 3:

Atlantis Spaceship, Mvp at mid left, Nerchio at top mid

3:00- Mvp goes CC first at natural and then barracks, Nerchio goes hatchery first and then pool.

Really ... Really ? So you lose a game and your outplayed, these forums get better and better.


I'd be more interested in hearing how you aren't outplayed when you lose.

Nope, he made a couple of errors, most critically he over extended allowing himself to be cleared up from 2 angles with infested terrans and roachling, but apart from that he played very sick.


Actually that trade was pretty nice for him. He got every infestor, and cleaned up a lot of units. This was good due to the economic damage.

Mvp is making this IEM a success pretty much by himself, entertaining games with a style not usually seen plus he never goes to big euro LANS.


It is not an unimportant point. People love to talk about the oversaturation of tournaments. I would also say there is an oversaturation of player exposure is a corollary. Having ones that are more reclusive, that we cannot see all the time makes it all the more sweet when we can.

5:00- Factory going down for Mvp, as is a reactor. Just one gas for Mvp though. 2 gas for Nerchio.
