Medrea needs something worthwhile to get angry about. This ain't it.

Plus all that armchair speculation on your part is ridiculous.

That last recap of all the players pictures in the order that they fell out was amazing! That was a really touching great way to end the season!

The most popular/fanwagoned SC2 player in existance + presence of zergs + recent esports drama having everyone hotheaded = massive balance whines.

Haha, nice. I get it.

For those not seeing the stream right now, they're showing clips of all the players with their nicknames, while a touching song plays. It's sort of like those moments at awards shows when they pause to reflect on people in the field who have passed on in the last year.

screw that if you have the skill and dedication to be a world champion at something, then you sure as hell can figure out how to be successful enough in real life. im on the standard career path to a stable life, but if i wasnt such a coward and had skill and was younger then i would do anything to be where life is right now. how many people can say that they stood at the top like that?

I know this isn't the place to ask, but seriously where is the Dreamhack LR thread?
I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)

This series was just an example of how forgiving Zerg is compared to Terran...MVP makes one mistake that basically costs him game (one overextension, failure to split vikings in the first game) while Zerg can just freely lose 15+ drones and do no damage with mutas, do multiple 10 pools and its NBD. Oh well, GGs.


Don't ruin this glorious moment.



But hes right, i dont even see how you can argue his point. Zerg is far more forgiving, and way too strong as the game goes late. Its always been that way, and its never really been fair,

under that logic, shouldnt way more Zergs have won way more tournaments?
Call it like it is guys.
MVP lost the first two games because he had 1 starport against 15 minute brood lords. If he had built 3 more instead of the 30 tanks, he could have had enough vikings to stop life and still had 15 tanks, more than enough to win.
In game 7, it wasnt anything that life did, in fact he made several relatively small mistakes. What in the end killed MVP was that he lost half of his army while trying to develop his 4th base. If he just stood at his xel naga tower instead of pushing for life's inoperative 5th he could have held his 4th and he already has the 3 airports to stop life's bl. If he just had the extra mech to hold the roach switch he wins the next few battles and its okay.

So even within his self handicap of using only mech, MVP made pretty massive mistakes in all the games he lost. Which all goes back to the fact that its unfortunate his wrists pain hurts him so much, because if he had played marine tank on at least one of the maps he lost he probably would have crushed life, when he started splitting hellions on life, life didnt respond effectively. So imagine what a couple of medivac of stimmed marines would have done.



Yes, and Taeja who is probably the best marine tank vZ player in the world lost 3-0 trying to play marine tank.

the best marine tank v Z player who doesnt have broken wrists. None of us will actually ever know how great MVP truly could have been without crippling pain.

I already called Bogus vs. Polt GSL Finals at the start of Code A. It's gonna happen.

Also it was a very good finals. Not top 3, but probably 4th.

No one denies Life is good but zerg late game is simply too strong.

It is very hard to do any damage to zerg early on without going all in.

At the same time, you *must* do a lot damage just to be even with zerg but also not make a mistake yourself.

Hive tech gives zerg incredible versatility over terran. Mvp scanned both brood and ultra tech on Ohana but it is completely luck based to prepare only for one of those, but if you prepare for both, you wont have enough to deal with zerg desired choice.

Then, even if you manage to outproduce them in viking thor army, 1 fungal can still completely turn the battle around.

In the end, if terran invested in a lot of thors, vikings and tanks, a massive morph of lings will do great against all those units.

Don't know if game is imbalanced but zerg simply seems way more forgiving to me than terran in terms of economy (you are ahead by default if terran doesn't do damage), in terms of tech choice and lastly in term of army control.

I loved that attack in game seven, just goes straight in with four broods to break that tank line and reinforces with ling/roach/infestor. Instead of waiting until he assembled a deathball he saw his timing and just swarmed it, beautiful zerg play.

oh well, another 17k in the bank for MvP. I think this pushes him way to the front of the pack since MC and Nestea haven't been winning as much?
