Have to say he really isn't doing a great job at it currently :/ Yesterday I didn't even realize it was him casting a game and was rather surprised to see it was him afterwards because I thought the caster did a bad job ...
Maybe it's a lack of confidence thing? Frodan's trying to throw to him, but he's kind of timid IMO. Sheth's game knowledge is so good he could be doing so much better.
Game 3+4: Life doesn't build roaches. Life loses economy to blue flame helions. MVP pushes with mech and ends game. Game 5 is the only game where MVP wins after NOT completely destroying Life's eco in the early game
you are crusading pretty hard for this, I have to wonder why.
Yeah it took me so long to open gomtv and find the GSL final link (10 seconds)
I'm talking more about the 10+ replies trying to convince everyone Mvp sucks even though no one seems to agree with you
because everyone whos disagreeing with me is probably gold or doesn't even play the game and therefore has no knowledge of the game whatsoever. Everyone just jumps on the "MVP is god" bandwagon and refuses to back up their statements with substantial evidence
He's kind of got a point though. Mech rarely seems to win TvZ games without doing a ton of Eco damage at some stage. I'd love examples, as perhaps I'm just atypical. To my recollection I have never seen a mech TvZ where the T won without roasting drones, or the Zerg screwing up in modern TvZ.
I'd love to check these games that disprove that. I currently think mech is outright bad in TvZ. It to me seems to rely too much on your opponent's mistakes. Would genuinely like to challenge my current views on mech

Not at all. MVP's bio play stands no chance against zerg, and his mech play isn't that great either
Mvp, mech, and not great in the same sentence. You don't have my respect.
Life vs MVP? The only games MVP won were when he killed 20+ drones at the 8 min mark
I seriously hope you are trolling.
link me to the games where MVP straight up outplays Life with mech
And killing 20+ drones at the 8 min mark isn't outplaying ? If anything one should wonder why terran needs to outplay so hard in the early game to have a chance of winning the game....
no it's called Life's baffling refusal to build a roach warren and trying to hold with pure lings
Lol, ok. You do realize that (despite balance) winning / losing the game is always influenced by your opponent making a mistake.
Your argument is: yes Mvp won but that is only because Life made a mistake.
In case you don't realize this is what always happens. One player must make (more) mistakes for other to win.
My argument is MVP won only when Life made a gold league mistake. In straight up macro games where both players entered the mid-game with no insane disadvantage, Life would always win with the exception of game 5. Read the recap, the writers pointed out Life's baffling refusal to build a roach warren. Please learn this game better
I think you are trolling, but I'm not quite sure.
I also think Life understands the game and how to play it about a million times as well as you do, so he probably had his reason for not getting the roach warren.
Saying that Mvp's mech play ain't that great... Yeah you're a troll. Ignoring after this!

Nobody's saying he's god. They're just saying his mech is good. Obviously mortal, but lethal. You're saying it's weak and that's not true.

Haha, sorry. I'll stop it. How hard did Leenock dominate the first game?

You have to kill workers if you want to hit your pre BL timing, that's one of the key things about playing mech vs Zerg. If you kill no workers you're not going to win unless you're significantly better than your opponent.
