Fine, it's harder to control units vs. fungals but my point still remains.
Oh and Mvp vikings were all caught by a single fungal, so it's terrible mistake by him.

yeah i get that 
on the other hand, although this is probably not the place to discuss it, look what the fungal nerf did to zerg in hots =/

Why wasn't MVP building any walls? Even in plat or below you see better walls than that.

You do realise you can manually target with your siege tanks right? It's a pretty damn basic skill that you see in every ZvT. You should be targeting the infestors yourself.
I agree about the fungals. Not in the way you say though, just get rid of the damn root which everyone knows sucks and has been saying for months.

are zergs doing 10p out of pity and to make the games interesting? Life does it and Life's succesful as hell - unfortunately not everyone is as good as him, so it looks kinda weak if other players do it xD And to the pre-splitting discussion: It depends on the attacker/defender. The attacker has an easier time pre-splitting the units, as he decides when the clash starts. MVP was attacking and still didn't do anything to weaken the effect of fungal.
One thing I want people to keep in mind with the pre-splitting is...its only effective once the engagement starts, if the targets aren't clumped, and if you dont focus fire. If the vikings focus fire, they all shift to be as close to the target as possible, clumping themselves. And even if they dont focus fire, if the target group is clumped, they'll still naturally drift right back together. Just food for thought.

Taeja should have one too though, he probably had the most dominant run in SC2 history. Life got beaten every now and then I'd go with MKP for having made it to more finals, but just barely But Leenock took more games in finals
Marineking 5 vs leenock 2?

It doesn't stand because "beautiful fungals" will almost always happen in a macro game. And when it happens it is extremely punishable and you can't correct the error which usually snowballs into terran getting crushed even if the game was even up until that point.
