Just watched the finals and its incredible how OP these Patchzergs are. At least the finals were pretty entertaining.



Or it could be Life is the Zerg version of Flash?

and MVP is a fantastic player, and the only thing that got him defeated was bad attacks, and delayed vikings?



I think MVP went out with his army too soon.



agreed, If you lose a mech army its really hard to rebuild it.

MVP had the game won on entombed he just didn't split his vikings... His builds and decision making were great but I found his micro/unit control to be less than champion. It's strange for MVP I think of him as more aware than that.
Wishing you well.

lmao. I love morons like you "if zerg wins it's OP! and give absolutely no credit to the player". Just an FYI life has been insanely good even before the patch. You just are mad because your player lost.

Don't get it, 4-3 finals and you say patch zerg ugg shouldn't comment on stupid posts like these but so hard -_-.

Loved the series was fun to watch and glad to see Life win although I was rooting for MVP because I wanted him to be a 5'th time GSL champ.
When I think of something else, something will go here

Atrocious and irrational players like yourself don't get to make these kinds of calls. If you couldn't keep up with why Life won this series, you have a lot to learn. Good luck bud.

Amazing series. Heart of a champion for Life. <3

ok I have calmed down. I wish Mvp would have done something else then mech every game which would then allow Life to go lair aggression more. Otherwise very enjoyable series and you could see Life cracking under the pressure then regaining his confidence. So great to watch.

As for people who think Life didn't deserve to win. I don't what to say except you are incredibly stupid and ignorant people.

I have to say that Life's drone splitting vs hellions was absolutely amazing in some of the games. To the point where he'd pull most of the drones away and attack the hellions with just enough drones to trap them in a corner

I feel like not enough people are giving Life credit for this. Every time MvP came in with BFHs, Life would lose 15-25 drones. That's still a good number, but if a lesser Zerg was playing? That would have been a killing blow.

It's a shame we didn't get to see more active unit play out of Life, since it seems to be his forte. Terran goes mech though, you go Broods, no questions asked.

Yup, and this is why a lot of people found the games boring. We've all seen more entertaining games out of the two of them before, but in this case, when both are playing to win ... Mvp studied Life, saw the ling-heavy composition backed up by strong multitasking and active backstabbing and decided turtling to mech would be most effective if accompanied by crippling the Zerg's economy with BFHs (what else are they for after all?). Life saw that Mvp was going mech, and because he didn't want to lose, he ditched his very strong and entertaining lairplay to go into BLs, because against 20 tanks there is literally nothing else you can do. People saying that he played one style and should've spammed roaches earlier to shut this down have to keep in mind that by not overmaking roaches, he freed up a lot of gas for his higher tech units like a fuckton of infestors, which bought him enough time in delaying Mvp's mech pushes to get his BLs out just in time, but obviously this only worked in cases where he wasn't too crippled by the batmobiles.

The series was a bit underwhelming, I was expecting Life to bust out his crazy aggressive midgame, but as people already stated that isn't really the best thing vs mech, so we never got to see it. Instead it was just mass infestor hive zerg, which really isn't the most entertaining. I'm not blaming Life for it, he did what he needed to, but even as a Zerg I find that style really boring.
It also looked like MVP's series to lose. With the exception of Ohana where he got steamrolled cause of the canceled CC, MVP looked like he could have taken games 1/2/7 with minor adjustments. When Life lost he lost baaaddd.
i was driving down the road this november eve and spotted a hitchhiker walking down the street. i pulled over and saw that it was only a tree. i uprooted it and put it in my trunk. do trees like marshmallow peeps? cause that's all i have and will have.

Well, I just watched the games. They were on too damn early, so I avoided spoilers the whole day and got together with friends to see it just now.

It's strangely satisfying reading through this thread post-fact, seeing all the Mvp fans gushing around the middle of the match whenever he bats a friggin' eyelid, knowing that their dreams will be crushed in the end.

Call me haughty but it still feels so damn nice.

It was close though. Very, very close.

You can get angry over patch zergs winning, like Johnnyrecco and vortix. Life was forced to go to hive tech, due to MVP's turtling. Thinking he could win without going to BL, infestor is retarded.

I think I was a bit disappointed by this finals because I liked Life's playstyle in other matches I'd seen, and these games were comparatively tame. Nothing on the skill of the players, but I thought these games were a bit of a snooze to watch.

That was Mvp's entire plan.

I hope this just makes Mvp want a 5th championship that much more. Here's to Mvp hopefully going on a monster run and just trashing tourneys left and right.
