I'm not really convinced that MKP's success is over. His loss in this GSL puts him in a club with MVP and NesTea, and I have a hard time believing anyone out there is saying "Yeah, we've seen the last of those guys." MKP was in the finals as recently as LAST GSL.

Your joking? Was this a PAX legal (right word?) issue? I can't for the life of me see how it could be a technical issue. Some spare wire and any one of half the media players/phone could of record the show. (lets not go in to the laptop/livestreaming set ups people had running already.)

So will the Tyler vs TLO game not be shown then?

It was Tyler vs Haypro, not TLO.

The vibe I got was that July is playing an unsustainable strategy that is a derivative of his Brood War style. It is relatively unique, and even Artosis said that during, I think maybe the match before the semi's practicing against July isn't that helpful because it is only going to help you against July and not the general Zerg population. July runs on a low economy that makes Hive Tech really not all the plausible in most situations, especially considering his aggressive style.

Since more players in the GSL probably don't face too many Zerg players that use July's strategy him winning isn't only a testament to his skill, but also to the inexperience of his competition. I think there is a lot of room for improvement in July's play but the flaws tend to be masked by the unique nature of his play and the positive results thus far.

I don't think he can continue to play in the manner he has been (not the aggressive part so much a low economy) and expect to win as players observe his strategies more. I think this was the general sentiment of the SOTG crew who could see the flaws in both July's play and in the responses made by his opponents.
