Just like all star game, votes win the award, not performance. Nonetheless, still a great motivation for Thorzain, whether he likes this award or not.

I remember the last season of all-BW proleague when Bisu won weekly mvp for losing to Hon-Sin. Good times.

Grats to Thorzain! I still think Flash deserves a bit of spotlight after having the first all-kill against TL (it hurt to watch, and yet was awesome to watch...), but I can see how Thorzain earned it.

Adersick, Flash did the all-kill in round 2, this is for round 1.

Gratz ThorZaiN! But the mentioned last foreigner win was in 2005 (as posted before):

Congrats on the win Thorzain, but I don't think you're the MVP. It's not your fault of course, just dailyesports getting it very very wrong.

People here have a problem with reading stuff:
In the end, ThorZaIN defeated Team 8's BaBy, EG-TL's Jaedong, and KT Rolster's Flash in the voting competition and grabbed the MVP title for round one.

It is MVP award, given arbitraly by voting. Not Most-Wins-Ratio-Award or Super-Awesome-Bonjwa-Award.

It was first foreigner win in PL after 7 years!!
Thus, the voters thought that Thorzain should receive the award for this MILESTONE achievement, despite low win-ratio.
Flash is better player than TZain, but Flash did only what Flash was expected to do. Remember that his All-Kill against EG-TL happened in Round 2.

The most memorable thing from Round 1 of PL after a year or so from now, won't be Rain win-streak, but the fact that in R1 was the first foreign victory after 7-years! Therefore comes the MVP award.

We know how it works and once again let me remind you not to mix PL's because this is completely different. So drop the 7 year spiel.

You'll have to tell that to the Korean teams, e-sports journalists, casters, broadcasters, the maps...

It was the first foreigner to win a SC2 PL game.

That's true. Thorzain's win was the first foreigner SC2 win in Proleague. It also happened to be the first foreigner win in Proleague in 7 years.

Your post is against the ten commandments. You should be ostracised for committing such a sin.

Nothing happens, as it won't be a win after 7-years or even first win in SC2 PL by foreigner.

Foreigners can win, hype is gone, TZain took all the glory! :D
