Rofl artosis


isn't that actually what artosis has told us though? He's always told us that bio is viable if you can play base trade scenarios and they will always work better on larger maps. I also thought he told us that MVP has always made fewer mistakes which is the reason why he wins, it just so happens that he uses mech and wins by huge margins when he does play perfectly. Mech has to be played perfectly in order to win because it's so hard to rebuild, but it truly IS the strongest army in TvT.

I don't see how artosis is wrong here, MVP is only confirming that mech play can't be unique, it can only be played perfectly and he's only telling us something we already knew, bio is more mobile and does better on larger maps.

Not really, artosis wants mech on every map, not just the small ones.

on the real though, nice interview!


More than likely, just an expression. Atheists like myself use "god damn", "god, that sucks", or "god knows what" all the time. In addition, in many Asian cultures (at least I know in China and Korea), the translation for god has nothing to do with the judeo-christian version - could be pantheistic or pagan, or just about anything, really.

Nice interview!

I'd like to hear more from him about his outside gaming interests, mostly if he thinks they help him keep focus.
U know, having other places where your mind can let your job go for a while, just relax in other activities.
Not my chair. Not my problem. That's what I say

This answer was about Mvp's earnings, but I can't help but feel it applies to his games as well:

[MVP]: I have been saving up. I always plan for future. That’s what I excel at.

I clearly remember him saying that it was much much harder in big maps, but that it was doable, and he thought that if mastered perfectly it should be the norm, I think what makes it hard for mech in this big maps is the 3 supply tanks D: .

Thanks for the awesome interview! It must be cool to have a dad like MVP :D. Lol , i didn't expect him to love agatha christie's books. Too bad he doesnt pick up all the hot girls on the street, even though he already has a gf ^^

There's no mystery as to why this guy is a total boss. He has such a healthy mindset - cool, calm, confident, mature.

This Q and A says it all to me:

You have been earning a lot of money from all your top finishes at most events you enter. What have you been doing the money? Have you been saving up for your future or spending it?

[MVP]: I have been saving up. I always plan for future. That’s what I excel at.


Even when all of the Brood War pros come to Starcraft 2, MVP will still be owning it up for many years to come.
