Also Squirtle had 20 supply on the Island when he crushed MVPs "ultimate comp". Im not convinced by the BCs at all.


I don't get how you can whine about one cheesy game in a best of 7 anyway, the other games were solid macro games although game 6 turned into an all in based on what happened.

Im convinced the same people whining about it would be really happy if it was Squirtle who cheesed to take game 7.

Whiners gonna whine while winners(MVP) is gonna win, I guess.

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.


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.


Feedback cancel yamato cast.
emp cancel feed back cast.

look, i can name counters..:D:D:D:D

Yamato has a very long cast time unlike the other 2.

I think MVP has never looked so ecstatic after a finals until this one. He actually had to sweat for this one.

Exactly, Why complain about cheese? Even though It was a cheese, Squirtle hold it off during the 1st push and for ordinary persons that would be most likely game over, but with Intelligent Decisions, Position and Micro, Mvp Managed to pull it off.

no words from Squirtle on his devolving process?



Why do people always want losers interviews?

You just want to read about how Squirtle is upset that he lost to cheese in the final game? Let the kid be filled with regret on his own. Give him a day or two to harass him about the finals, he just lost a series where he looked like he was about to convincingly reverse sweep.

Im not talking about balance or anything, but the 'better' player at the moment didn't win. MVP is MVP though, doesn't matter if your might be mechanically better than him, in better shape, better prepared, etc. MVP will win if he wants to, as he has shown. Congratulations on that


I will say though, that I really hope MVP returns to his amazing self. He is still in a bit of slump skillwise imo. He is winning because he is abusing early game terran with mixtures of allin/cheese strategies and mind games. Which works, im not trashing him. Its just we all loved MVP for how he played while he was dominant. We will support him now, but if he doesn't switch his style back around he will lose fans.

MVP's series this year have all been lackluster. The last 3 tvp's he has played has really showed it. Bitttttt---Byyyyy----Biiittttt


edit: and he can't de-evolve...MVP just decided to spam B while he was evolving. So now we have to wait another level or two


The better player did win, what are you talking about. Just because you're not exactly a fan from Mvp's vs Protoss style doesn't make it any less legitimate, and certainly doesn't detract from his quality as a player of Starcraft 2.
He is winning, because he is better at Starcraft 2 than his opponents. Even if he had cheesed every single game, he would be better. But of course he didn't do that, and you know that, conveniently downplaying that fact, obviously.

I was so mad when he won...


But reading this makes me happy for him. Mvp fighting! I wonder how his wrists felt during that whole series.
