Yeah. PvMVP is totally different. He needs to prepare for cheese defense quite a bit.

Ya he was ripping terran apart yes.

But Sun is ripping the best terrans(Taeja,Polt),zerg(DRG,Leenock,Curious) and toss(Parting,HerO) apart.

Sun is gonna be the first royal roader in SC2 history to win the championship.


What? I was under the impression a "royal roader" was someone who came from Code A. Sun was given a Code S seed I thought.

royal road is winning 2 tournaments simultaneously. In Sun's case this is GSL and OSL in which he is in the RO4 for both.

Interestingly, I think Rain plays a very Mvp-esque (or Flash-esque) style. Since they play different races, some things will be different. But if you look at Rain's PvT and Mvp's Mech v Bio/mech. There is a lot of similarities. Very good at defending against aggression. Good defensive army positioning.

And probably the biggest thing, even when they do get out of position, they are calm and make decisions which sees them take the least amount of damage/trade most cost effectively. Like when Rain got doom dropped by Taeja on Antiga. He knew he was going to lose his nexus. He didn't panic and try to rush in. He slowly killed the forces while losing as few units as possible. He knew the nexus was down anyways and what he need was as much army as possible so he could defend when he need time to rebuild. Mvp makes a lot of good judgement calls like this as well

very well observed, i agree

mvp vs rain will be some very scrappy games out of mvp i think, mixed with some super greedy eco builds (hidden expo to name it)

if rain is well prepaired he will win it 3-2

if not mvp will take it 3-1

I'm just glad we have our best eSF player to take on Rain next.

That semifinal is like an unstoppable elephant vs the unbreakable wall of GSL trophies.

Funny. Remember hearing that about MVP vs Naniwa. And Parting. And Squirtle.
