In fairness, nothing short of a money vortex like the one Squirtle landed could have stopped that BC army. In bigger numbers, they are near unstoppable, just like Carriers.

I believe so too, but that response from MVP regarding the game made no sense, what made Squirtle win the game wasn't the amount of units he had or that he had preserved them( it's not like he was even remotely resource starved), but the vortex, if that was the first game of the series, I doubt that MVP would have made the same mistake and gotten caught, his mind would be much clearer and landing that vortex was pretty much Squirtle's only hope, MVP's attack was delayed and then rushed, such an artwork of a game plan gone to waste...at least he won it all in the end.
So... what that make you? Good? You're not good. You just know how to hide, how to lie

Exactly. Just really hard to get to them safely without dying.

VoidRays> BC's

With squirtles bank if he had scouted the BC's sooner he would have upgraded air and massed Vr's and crushed the BC's without the need for vortext.

Voidrays do + damage to massive AND + damage to armored. They hard counter bcs on equal upgrades.

If you just look at the stats, then yes. But a single Yamato takes out a full health void ray. Which means a bunch of void rays aren't even going to do damage. MVP would not have gone BCs if he thought being scouted would mean a loss.

Never followed MVP much before, he was always just that dude who won everything, but I gotta say I'm a convert now.

Remaxing with Void Rays that are already upgraded was smarter. He already was maxed out on mass Archon/High Templar/Mothership, he didn't need to build Void Rays right away. The remax with 4 Stargates and tons of Chrono was quite good. Also, it discourages MVP from building Ravens and upgrading Seeker Missle to easily dispatch clumped up Void Rays.

In the interview he said that protoss underestimate them though, so i hope that means he'll use them more often?

Fuck yeah, King Mvp.

Actually, when it was announced that LG decided to sponsor IM, I switched from going to buy a Samsung TV to LG instead. Sorry Khan fans
