I still remember MVP clustered his BCs for just a second and Squirtle Mamaship came up from the high ground and vortex those BCs. Then 3/3 BCs just melted to 3/3 Archons. It was depressing to watch.T.T Mvp did know about the mothership and according to the inteview, EMPing it was on his mind and he just misscontroled. Shows why vortex should probably be nerfed to death. Still a cool game in a great series though. | ||

Not to derail the conversation, but if there was like a warning the vortex went off before it happened as opposed to being instantaneous it might be ok. Thinking like how nukes can be avoided, or comparing to something like Kog'Maws ultimate in LoL where you get something like a second to dodge. Just enough time to react somewhat. Doesn't make the final battle any less epic. I mean that BC army was freaking amazing and Squirtle was JUST able to get a vortex mothership to flank in time. If MVP had gone for that base first it never would have happened. There were like 50 different ways that could have played out. | ||

What if Squirtle had won that series and the BC/Vortex game was Game 7? I bet there would be a humongous shitstorm complaining about Vortex and how it nullifies army advantage and how Mvp totally outplayed Squirtle to get that beautiful army composition, only to lose it in a second due to broken Vortex. It's all about perspective. I suppose we should thank Mvp for winning the series, because his victory (in my opinion) saved the series from being used as an example of imbalance (remember that this was when lategame PvT was considered to be waaay too strong for Terran to deal with). | ||

Teams like FXO or even StarTale should be way higher in these votes... Again, its favorite team rather then the best. Someone can vote for team liquid cause of their uniforms if they want. | ||

Not which team is your favorite that also participated in the GSL tour, but which one was your favorite in the GSL tour. There's a reason why favorite player has only 2% MMA fans, although there are WAY more many diehard MMA fans than that (including myself) -- because he fucking sucked shit in 2012 GSL, and MVP is way more deserving for the vote because he won and was in the finals out of 5 seasons, the other two being in ro16 - pretty fucking impressive. | ||

The only one that failed was the team poll. Edit: Also, 1100 voted for LG-IM. If you consider the fact that most Korean teams wouldn't vote for a foreign team, it's only 300 votes to beat TL. So this poll may have given LG-IM the win. | ||

I'm glad Vortex's there for that actually, because a super optimal terran army like that is just unbeatable. no zerg or protoss composition can win against what MVP had, unless miscontrol happen like that and he gets his army vortexed. | ||
