Yes, GSTL finals vs Slayers. He beat Ryung with them, i believe. He's one of the first people who made battlecruisers work in lategame TvT. I meant vs Squirtle in this finals specifically, sorry. It was only one game, so no, he didn't win with them. In the interview he said that protoss underestimate them though, so i hope that means he'll use them more often?
He had that game without a doubt, it was through his mistake of waiting too long and getting vortexed in such a way in the final battle that squirtle ended up winning. I think It's a strong strategy that we will see more often on maps where you can turtle like Metropolis.

MVP's record in finals (including WCG, MLG, Blizzcon): 7-1
the guy has the nerves of steel.

Mvp comments about the battlecruisers give the suggestion that had the Vortex not happened it would have worked out...
Either way, that late game TvP build seems to only work on Metropolis given how much harder it is to turtle up and take island expoes on other maps (without the Protoss taking bases all over the map.)

I believe he shares the same wrist pain symptoms with GGPlay, who was his teammate at Woongjin back in BW. I think he has now found a way to solve them. It was mentioned in one of the interviews with Mvp IIRC.

Most. Epic. Finals EVER. Wow! I'm just sad Squirtle didn't complete his comeback, but anyway maybe it's good for e-sports and all!

He crushed Ryung by using battlecruisers.

I meant specifically in this series vs Squirtle, and I already got my answer on the last page.

Well, Battlecruisers are a common unit in lategame TvT in BW.
Althought yes, MVP always will be remembered in BW as the guy that once defeated Flash.

I want to see Mvp vs Flash sc2 match even if Flash is not mvp's caliber yet. It would be cool.
Good interview congratulations to Mvp!

Even more spectacular, he used it the day after they got buffed. I don't think he even had any time to play around with them yet.

Took one game. And lost the series. He did beat Stork though.

That's how he first became known, by being a ladder monster. Same with DRG and MKP.

giving up and pushing once again despite initially being repulsed with my all-in rush made the experience all the more electrifying.
I lol'ed, MVP haters must be on suicide watch or something.
