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

I like vortix's chances here

Mvp plays for late game (like most K-Terrans nowadays), but his multi-tasking and harassment ability is pretty standard, and not nothing really special. Vortix has shown that unless you can really harass the shit out of him, he's 100% okay fighting Korean Terrans in brute force vs brute force late game scenarios.

One quirk is that Vortix uses weird mid game aggression from time to time, which is kind of a double edge sword here. Mvp has gotten wrecked in the past by lair big lair attacks when he tried to go for 3 base too greedily (esp with mech). Vortix has also gotten himself killed doing this ^^;

I really liked Mvp's old ability to do strong 2 base stuff, but I guess queen patch has raped that option for most Terrans


How is his multi-tasking pretty standard? Despite him being crippled, its still one of the best out there.


It's because a lot of players can't multitask at all. They just don't count.


That would mean Vortix is out, because it was pretty obvious against nova he couldn't multitask. At all.

I doubt she's even realized she got a $1000 piece of equipment yet.

Judging from her reaction.

Nerchio's not a patch Zerg. He's been doing well for a very long time, and he's been one of the- if not THE- best ZvZ non-Korean players for as long as I can remember.

Get a clue.


The irony in this post makes it hilarious LOL.

So? not even that great as a gamer, i7-2700k actually the best there is(sandy bridge better, because they can be overclocked more)

six core never been great as a gamer, more cores are not better at all sooo

What's amazing about Mvp is not how he is so good at multitask but he knows when to harass and use his multitask. How many times you see terran drop for the sake of dropping and end up doing no damage at all.
