winners' final, losers' final are bo5

Leenock is the expected champion here, viOLet had a great run, but Leenock is simply better recently.

If there was an award for most consistent player of 2012, it would really have to be viOLet, almost every tournament you see him there (except dreamhacks) and he useally gets top 8, a few times he got lower but still.

This would be a HUGE improvement, and is something I've never thought of.

Of course, the whole game really needs stronger color influence. Hope HotS does something about that.

Violet is just a quiet monster, keeps placing high, tears down a few big names and makes mincemeat out of smaller ones and occasionally he'll go all the way and win.

He's kind at worst the true gatekeeper of 2012's S class, want to reach the top? You gotta get through violet.

I think tournaments need to use different colors, because something like red on zerg gets hard to spot.

One of the best combos is Blue / Orange, they really make eachother stand out when next to eachother, there is a word for it but I don't know it in english.

I really like the mod and don't think it's ugly at all, but besides the ESV weekly tournaments, is there any tournament that uses it?

link me to the games where MVP straight up outplays Life with mech

All the games he won.


http://www.gomtv.net/2012gsls4/vod/70653

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

Maybe if he tries hard enough he'll convert someone.

You'd be surprised then how many non commenting folk do agree with him. Secondly whether he is right or wrong, he's advancing his idea with arguments. So far I've seen him called a troll and that's about it.


thank you someone who doesnt' jump on the "omg he criticized MVP's play? he must be a troll" bandwagon.


I mean, criticize his play all you want but at the end of the day he's the only Terran player to even make a GSL finals this year so maybe the other Terran players should step it up and show us that they're better. This whole discussion of how he's not actually that good is pointless when you can't point to someone else and say they do it better than him.

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


That's a bit like saying that bio doesn't seem to win without dropping in TvZ. Of course you are going to go for eco damage with mech, you are pumping out hellions, and going for drones with them is the best use until you build up your tanks. Your opponent doesn't need to "screw up", you can outplay or outsmart him just the same.

Dropping exemplifies you trying to make something happen and your opponent trying to deflect it. I feel suiciding hellions into drone lines is showing a blind hope to do damage rather than forcing it. Lucifrons mech is the coolest I've seen because he uses things like banshees purely to snipe rallied infestors if he can and other really cool subtleties.

Like I said, if someone has a vod of a mech player exploiting mistakes in more subtle ways and not say via a successful hellion run by I'd love to check it out. Lucifron vs Stephano is the kind of approach to mech I think has potential, even though he lost


You may want to try the abyssal city game in the GSL finals.

It shall be done sir. Will let you know my thoughts!

I'm spectacularly unfortunate in my choice of games that I watch, he'll I went a two week stretch where I didn't see a single mech player win a set in TvZ
