As with "everyones" style, it will get figured out and countered hard. The reason MVP is so successful is because he has no style, he plays a wide arrangement of openers/strategies and captilizes on mistakes by his opponent. "Style" never lasts.

Mvp's style is winning, and it shows no sign of slowing down.

I predict that Life will win, and the forums will explode with balance whine.

I'd definitely agree, MVP being the master of mind games is part of why he is no successful. Look no further, just the interview here, showed that he sacked a game on a bad map to imprint an image into his opponent's head, and then bust out a clever triple orbital build on the next two games to win.

mechanically Life should have this easily, but Mvp seems to disable his opponents somehow.

It's so scary that Life is that good while having little practice due to school.
I think it's gonna play in his defavour that he don't have as much time as in the summer.

Overall, MVP for his fifth GSL title, and the official status starting with a B and finishing by onjwa that everyone is so afraid to use.


I don't know. Stephano got pretty good as well playing 2 hours a day.
It's getting less and less every time i hear people say this.

Still true nonetheless.


Life's better than Stephano tho.

I'm not sure if people seriously believe this Stephano thingy that he doesn't/didn't practice (he might not be practicing a lot in match-ups he is good at / understands, but when he is lacking he practices hard) and if you seriously believe that Life is better than Stephano...

For instance, he played a shit ton of games (like as much or more than Kas) when he started SC2 in order to understand the game and stuff. He used to say that he was in the medicine school when he was not so I guess this "I don't practice" thing is also a troll.


It's hard to believe Life is better than Stephano when Life is absolutely owning the best players in the world and is in a GSL finals?

That some French bias.

I don't really think Life's mechanics are superior to Mvp's. In fact, Mvp's mechanics are probably the most underrated aspect of his game. Perhaps it's because he downplays it so much, or people think he's crippled because of his injuries. If you actually watch his games though you'll see that his multitasking is second to none. And besides mechanics, I think Mvp has Life beat on pretty much every other area.

WOW! Life ain't a full-time player?

I agree with this. No offense to Stephano fanboys (he's a great player) but I was pretty amazed by how Oz just had Stephano's timings down in MLG. Who's to say Mvp can't do that with Life?

On the other hand, Life will have to deal with a very reactive player in Mvp. Mvp reacts well to a handful of situations and can play most any style that is available to T. If Mvp takes the time to study Life, Life's gonna have to rely on his mechanics and fundamentals.

I think we'll probably see an early pool and/or a muta rush(first 100 gas to lair kind) from Life and a proxy 2 rax from MVP somewhere in this series.

I think that MVP will play much more defensive this finals, and I think he will win 4-2.
