Thank you for doing the interview wozzot.
I needed a break Seeker I am disappoint! I really looked forward to some unserious rambling from you  I love both of these players and can't decide who should/will win. Both are such badasses! No more drama. I'm sick of it  why do you hate popcorns
 ?

whoever wins, rain or MVP, they'll win the GSL As much as I want this (them being my two favorite players left), Taeja really isn't a force to be counted out like that. I would give rain a better shot against taeja than MVP though. On second thought, Taeja has showed some tvt weakness recently notably going down 0-2 to forgg.
then winning 3 games in a row to win the whole tournement........

Thanks for the interview!

MVP is a winner. He is officially the first terran player for me to become a fan of. This guy is just magic.
|
Anyone find it ironic that MVP commented about the weather when his next opponent will be "Rain" in which case MVP predicted the weather forecast of their next match to be a cold and rainy day :D
ALso that the game is made by Blizzard which also associates with cold.

Mvp vs By.Sun in Las Vegas?
edit :nm that's GSL season 5
|
I can't stand the hype train that Rain's success has created. Sure, he's sick good but people were saying this kind of shit of forgg when he crushed through code A in the past.
Anyways damn I'm excited for how this GSL is going to unfold! I hope mvp doesn't get his fifth title cos he's had enough...

MVP is such a badass. "It's time for Rain to lose." Rain should be scared shitless! ...does Rain look like the kind of person to get intimitated by that to you? Should be an amazing semifinals no matter what, but I'm gonna have to agree on Rain 3-1. Mvp is looking as strong as ever, but Rain is looking nigh unbeatable. Yes, the same could be said for PartinG/Squirtle/Symbol in the last seasons but this is something else. Rain is crushing everyone everywhere no matter what, and with his lategame PvT skills and Mvp's wrists in a drawn out session, the stars would really have to align for Mvp if he's gonna make his way out of this one. No, the exact same was said for Parting Squirtle when MVP won last time. They were dominating UNBELIEVABLY hard, harder than Rain has been doing. Squirtle didn't drop a single fucking map. They were crushing favorites, and nobody, besides the most diehard MVP fans thought he even stood a chance of taking a map. But nope, MVP rolled them because thats what he does. Time and time again he proves us wrong, because he's a winner. And winners win. Parting lost because he got overconfident. Squirtle lost because he choked under pressure. Rain is a veteran in a different way though. Yes, it's his first time in anything big in SC2, but he's got the BW experience that the others lacked on a top level. I'm fairly confident Rain will stand up for himself in a way that the other tosses were unable to, and quite frankly that's all he needs. " Parting lost because he got overconfident " So you play worse when you get overconfident or what? If that's the excuse It's a pretty pitiful one. When you get overconfident you react badly to unforeseen losses and in general, you will not take your opponent seriously enough to adequately prepare.

Plenty of veterans lack the mental discipline that Rain possesses right now, and this is the same case in every sport. If Parting didn't take Mvp seriously that's laughable, I refuse to believe that. It's just as laughable when K-Brad starting feeling himself in the SF4:AE finals at Season's Beatings and almost got downloaded by Infiltration? Or when Life didn't prepare for his Code A match and got stomped by Leenock? You underestimate how much overconfidence can cloud your judgment, and Mvp was not one of the favorites in that season. People thought that his injuries were too big of an obstacle to overcome. Even Mvp was not that confident in his interviews and Parting is known for being cocky. Remember that the series happened just after Mvp failed to win the NVIDIA Gaming Festival (which should have been a freebie given the competition there) and he was looking incredibly weak in the months leading up to it.
I know that Mvp hasn't always been up to his top level, but the NVIDIA Gaming Festival can't be used as an example as it was twitted everywhere before the matches that Mvp had food poisoning. Plus you've got to remember that Mvp is not treated on the same standard as every other pro.
As soon as he loses a match, everybody says he is in a slump (remember GSL S1 when he only lost twice to Gumiho, but still a lot of people were going crazy on how Mvp was never going to win ever again and he took the next GSL).
The fact is that he's been more inconsistent since the beginning of 2012 and he plays so few tournaments than as soon as he gets eliminated from GSL, everybody considers that he is playing bad.
But at the moment, he is in great form and I definitely think that Mvp can stop Rain. I'm not saying he is the clear favourite, but we only had the occasion to watch Rain win in three big TvPs yet (Byun, Polt and Taeja), and two of those players are definitely worse than Mvp at the moment. He may very well not play up to his level in those games or show some weaknesses that we haven't seen before. Considering he has lost against Happy once already this season, there is nothing certain for me at the moment.
Conclusion, Mvp has taught me to trust him in every situation and he seems both motivated and confident, so I have a good feeling toward this semi-final. It's going to be great anyway !

It's impossible for him to ever live up to the hype, even if he wins GSL.

Mvp's going to take this GSL home! His Ro8 games certainly left a message for us to see:
He told us the weather was cold and we should prevent ourselves from getting a cold.
You know what also gives colds? By.Rain!
By giving us this warning, he has saved us from getting a cold...
it's obviously subliminal messaging that Mvp will save GSL from Rain and claim the trophy for non-Kespa players once more!

rains debut is alot more amazing than forgg, but mvp will still beat him!!!!
but truth be told i think rain is stronger than mvp. but i want mvp to win. rain can win osl.

Don't worry guys, MVP will protect us from the Rain

The point was not that Mvp was inconsistent but that Parting had a reason to be overconfident for his Ro8 series in Season 2. Even discounting the NVIDIA Gaming Festival (I was unaware of the circumstances, thank you for mentioning them) Mvp was performing far below expectations.

if MVP wins, is he the umbrella terran?

Oh man, MVP vs Rain is going to be sick

Yes, works against both Sun and Rain.

A lot of people are saying Rain will win both OSL and GSL.
DRG will stop Rain in the OSL.
MVP will stop rain in the GSL.

Does this mean anything really?
I can't think of any Zerg player (save Stephano) who hasn't said Toss was favoured.
