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

What a Series.
That game 1 will be bookmarked and reviewed when I do my obligatory 5 game 11/11 Rax against Zerg.

If total Domination is one of their their players not qualifying out of the open bracket and one player not making it out of pool play... O_O
MVP played great, but it was hardly "LG-IM TOTAL DOMINATION !"

But I love you too.

Only saw the 1st 10 minutes of the Grand Finals, but I see MVP didn't change much and went for a cheesy all-in way. After that only one thing came to mind:
He's not the Hero we deserve, but the Hero we need.
Without derailing my post into a generic whine about balance, it's good to have terran champs even during these dark times

So when are people going to stop discounting MVP? Will it be when he wins his 20th GSL at age 40?

Uhhh, watch more than 10 minutes. MVP showcased some of the best multitasking and late game TvZ we've seen in a while.

The person initially quoted said "I see MVP didn't change much and went for a cheesy all-in way." The person you're replying to is agreeing with you.

I thought Jerett was a great host, even though I didn't actually figure out who he was until today. Hope to see him at more competitions.

don't get me wrong, I saw 10 minutes because I had to leave for work, I definitely will watch the rest of the series

And so ends one of the most underwhelming IEMs of recent times.
I hope the next time when it isn't a League of Legends regional final to contend with they actually put more work in to the SC2 side of things. Disappointed, not up to usual IEM/ESL standards.
