MVP didn't really give him any other option... Still I feel really cheated. If MVP drops out in the group stages (quite likely now) I don't know if I will even watch the rest of the tournament... I'm sick of the lack of Terran the past year.. in so many tournaments too..

DRG didn't build ANY units... Marauders hellions has not work for ages. 2 Fac Blue Flame is decent if zerg doesn't make roaches. But if you look at the game, it seems that Ts lose to all-ins much more frequently in their match ups. One reason is maybe the popularity of the 3 CC builds.

I hope the next 2 sets go quickly, so I can catch one more Mvp set before proleague.

He's also fighting against age, he's 10 years older than almost all his top competition. I love MVP but he's probably on the way out in a ruthless super competitive environment like RTS. And it only is going to get more demanding from here with more need for high APM, multi-tasking and constant practice. 
Is most of his competition 12? I think you mistook MVP for Nestea. MVP is still relatively young and SC2 is not as mechanically strenous as SC1 was in terms of raw apm needed to compete. MVP is great at planning series and playing mind games but he's not as good in a round robin setting as we've seen in many of these big 2-3 day tourneys.

How often do you see a terran hold an immortal bust, or a sentry zealot stalker bust, or a speedlot storm bust? Conversely how often do you see a protoss lose to any of these pressures you listed?

What? Get your facts straight...

I don't think Mvp plays again for ~ 2hours (normal GSL time)

Would someone please explain to me how "soul" or "soulful" got linked to Parting's immortal pressures?

I didn't know Mvp's top competition was 10 years old.

To be fair, I wanted to see at least a bit more terrans too. Especially I hope Mvp can at least win against Leenock.

Look at it as justice for this.

Best doesn't mean the most options. Problem with a lot of the terran pressure is that P and Z have relative eco builds which are still safe against T all-ins even without scout. For roach/immortal all-ins, Ts HAVE to scout it.

Polt has an insane win rate with Marauder Hellion. Hack used it last week with success too. It works more often than it doesn't.
You're right about DRG. I'm not saying he lost to a particularly strong all in. I just find it humorous because one of the things Terrans have been saying lately is that 5 range Queens make Zerg invincible to early pressure and Zerg doesn't have to spend any larva on units. Well, DRG had Queens, 6 of them, and all Terran had to do was build a bunch of Marines and go kill him, so there. This to me is not much different from Terrans delaying siege mode and not building any units, and dying to 5-10 Roaches.
