Go Mvp!!!
This is Mvp's chance to shine in Heart of the Swarm!
I expect nothing less than complete Mvp domination once more. Go go Mvp! :D

Mvp is handsome. Since Curious the gatekeeper, when Mvp beats him he should be seeded back into Code S. Boom.

Should be an easy win for Mvp since Curious is still very much tied to WoL.
|
Curious should win handily.
3-0 or 3-1

Oh yea, The king of Wings in HotS
Cant miss it baby

Prepare the fuck yeah Mvp images.

A part of me died when Mvp lost 0-3 to you-know-who in iron squid. I hope he gets a fresh new start in HotS. Emveepee hwaiting.

I think Mvp fans who will look at the results of this qualifier to get their hopes up for the near future will set themselves up for disappointment.

The only hope here for Mvp is that Terran is strong in Hots, and Curious has GSL he's still playing in while Mvp was knocked out of GSL entirely. Curious still wins though, 3-2.

According to Catz on stream the other day, Goswser beat Leenock offracing as Terran in HotS.

Mt heart really says MVP, remembering how dominate he used to be. But it is going to be a massive uphill battle if he wants to take out curious. But if anyone can do it MVP can. Should still be some pretty good games either way.

MVP, please go mech with mines. I beg of you <3333
|
Mvp should take this. Predicting one-sided match.
|
not a very flattering picture of curious
|
MVP 3-0 Curious EASY. MVP has been practicing HoTS since he dropped out while Curious probably has played less than 10 games total because of his GSL practice. Never doubt the King!

I wonder if we'll see more hellbats or if Mvp will want to go into longer games. I think he and Nestea could probably cook up some crazy shit in the IM house if they wanted to, but I reckon it'll be decided by how Mvp's wrists are feeling.
|
I hope MVP will come back with HotS, his last Games in WoL looked awful. 
|
Do the games usually start right away? Haven't seen any of the previous matches.

They usually talk for 5 or so minutes and then they start.

i would be rather surprised (and upset) if MVP loses this.
|
techlab reapers by mvp, please have another ellaborate plan involving it.
|
So use to the new patch that i forgot these games were played a while ago. The 4 hellbat drops was so anoying >_>
|
Can someone tell them to activate the option that only shows HP-Bars when Units are hurt? I don't care about the HP-Bars of Creep-Tumors...
|
I don't think Mvp played much HotS (well that's an old replay). He's playing this like WoL mech.
|
Can you load broodlings into overlords?
|
No Heartland, you can't load temporary units.
|
What the hell were those tank shots in that last picture in picture?? Anyone else see that? They were shooting out fuckin light beams.
|
Hell bat is so good in HOTS, it helps fighting against broodlings so fast.

Looks like we gonna see PvP, PvT, TvT in Dallas finals, good, was so sick of ZvZ hehe

MVP guide to HotS TvZ:
throw down a techlab
get only reapers anyways, harass with them
do a failed hellbat drop
fuck it, mass tanks
win

Great game by MVP, but Curious really cut into that worker count. MVP was sub 30 workers at one point in the late game.

Well, he's still helped by general mech buffs like free siege mode or combined armor upgrades. But he didn't use that alternate thor mode, or hellbats to dump his minerals, or a few mines to defend against the mutas.

Back when Reapers were totally OP, I always build a Techlab, because it was just so automatic to buid it for Reapers...

They were OP at the start of HotS, when you had to rush Reapers in TvT or just die!

Curious had every chance to win that but he was on 66 drones (which for zerg even in HoTS is low), he had a single useless swarmhost at his fifth base and did a massively failed attack against mvps somewhat defended third base which was a really bad place to attack in to.

These games were before hellbat medivac cargo nerf :/

Yumyumyum DroneBBQ :D ♥♥♥

United Kingdom12025 Posts
Wow, why did Curious not even bother to try and scout other than a single gas?
|
It saddens me that I cannot farm ladder with 4 hellbat drops anymore.
|
|
|
Holy hell Poor Curious. He should get a special portrait from Blizzard for his misery. He microed his heart out against the first hell-drop, only to find 26 drones killed in 1 second at his natural.

Well, at least we got that nerf to Hellbat cargo space.

United Kingdom12025 Posts
Curious really could have scouted that and built something better.

Mass queen doesn't defend everything anymore, happy to see that

Sorry Curious, we didn't get the helbat nerf in time for you .

I don't even think that was a lack of cargo space nerf. He just didn't bother scouting if you look back at that game. All he scouted was a cc and one gas. He didn't go further into the base.

i always think it's hilarious how Axslav has that skeptical look on his face whenever Axeltoss talks lol
|
Oh man, even with 2 hell bats / dropship, it's still incredibly powerful lol. Mech is gonna be awesome!

This is why I hope they don't further nerf the Hellbat just yet. The cargo nerf was kind of needed but don't nerf it anymore yet. Zerg's are really just starting to get used to having to build units and play out the mid game again. Queens and spines/spores can't defend everything any more, it's a lot harder to just turtle to hive now and Zerg's are having a tough time adjusting to it imo.
Give a month or so into HotS and the real top tier Zerg's will be back on top and kicking ass. It's the little things that are really hyping me up for HotS, when you watch two top tier players who have spent time playing the beta you can see it's just more. You have more poking and prodding, you have to scout more and constantly more smaller engagements etc.

Sometimes things are just broken. No matter of creativity gets you past the fact of what you get for 100 minerals. Just as with 5rax reaper, or mass infestor, hellbats are broken.

MVP making it clear he didn't even need hellbats to walk in and kill Curious. Hellions are just fine.

Curious just doesn't like to build any form of defense like ever. :p

What's wrong with curious? Get hell-bat dropped. See hellions. Make lings???

I say we wait it out, there was a time when everyone clamored that marines were OP as hell and there was nothing you could do against them. "Too good for 50 minerals" "highest dps per cost" "really? your t1 unit shoots air?" "You can build 2 of them at once?" "banelings aren't a counter, you just split your marines vs them"
Wait on it, WoL got HORRIBLY screwed up because we kepted nerfing stuff over and over and over for terran

I agree with this, though if they want one more nerf to hellbats just to be sure.. I've been saying it since before the cargo nerf... Just get rid of the damn bio tag, stop the medivacs from being able to heal the hellbats.. the whole idea of that is just fucking stupid..

Don't worry guys, I'm sure Mvp will manage to get terran nerfed this time around too.

this is like the only thing I want blizzard to change with HotS lol, the fact that hellbats are bio is really dumb

If MVP ever loses, its on purpose, to build suspense and make his next victory all the sweeter.

+ Show Spoiler +Game 3 wasn't anywhere near all in. He had an expansion and also a third CC building right? Curious just didn't build any defense what so ever and rolled over.

I wish the hellbat cargo nerf was in that game

Impressed by how MVP rolls through a (small) infestor/BL/corruptor composition with tank/thor/hellbat.
Who cares about vikings? (And landing them after sniping the BL, priceless)

MVP games especially the first one was very impressive. Hope he's able to dominate in HoTS as well! :D
|
to be honest, curious played BAD i mean that mvp make reapers from techlab having much less of them then possible, having later helbats, also that it was still the version where he could drop 4 and screw it so often ...
i have to say that curious as top8 gsl player is playing 100% wol and so, had no chance.
mvp played solid but not great

Mvp victories always make my day.
MVP, DOMINATE MLG WINTER 2013!! <3

I don't think I've seen anyone do mass tanks since LiquidSea did it a few months ago (and never before that). Strange how effective it is.

Agreed. Curious dealt with the Hellbat drops perfectly in Game One. He killed four hellbats from a full drop with 5 Roaches and 2 Queens, even sniping the Medievac. MVP lost more in Hellbats/Medievac then Curious did in Drones in Game 1. So that proves Curious CAN do it, he just didn't.
It doesn't seem like it really be that hard for Zergs to make 4 roaches while droning instead of extra speedlings. I don't think it will take Zergs that long to figure out Hellbats.

lol that was not the same timing at all... game 1 it was a 9 minutes drop (and yes zerg can have roaches and a decent economy at 9) but game 2 was a 7 min drop... And a 4 hellbats drop so early is clearly op. That is what everybody is saying...

Yeah that doesn't excuse not having a Roach Warren at 9 in Game 3 though either and losing to a 100% pure WoL build.
Did he just think MVP wouldn't make any units and let him do a three base muta build without attacking?
