Dont forget that it is a best of 7 which really favours MVP. Innovation has godlike mechanics but lacks decision making, build orders and experience. I don't think that just hellbat abusing as against alive (who played poorly today) will win him the semi finals. MVP is unpredictable and precise in his strategies but lacking mechanics compared to innovation so it is a close call in my opinion. I'm hoping that the king of liberty will return back to his throne.


Semi's are Bo5.

Hoping for some good games!


Oh sorry. I assumed that it was best of 7 like gsl but it seems that you are correct. So even more difficult for MVP. But i think Jurgen will make it to the finals!

Easily?

Innovation is without a doubt the best TvT player currently, sporting 75%+ winrate in TvT against some of the best Terran players while MVP doesn't break 70% against foreign players.

yeah, but this is the semis of a major tournament in a bo5 with some preparation time, which means Jürgen is ready to go full Mvp mode!

it's probably not gonna be "easy" though, i agree.

I will be fine with any one of the 4 winning.

MVP is such a fucking legend at this point, Innovation really deserves a tittle imo, Soulkey would give us the IdrA good manner stream and sOs is a protoss.

I'm just fueling Jürgen's power, but I doubt that MVP can beat innovation. Innovation is hungry now and wants it more.

I agree that mvp can take it.

I think the original poster was just saying Innovation is not a 100% lock

One day is not that much preparation time though. This is basically just like a weekend tournament. Granted, Mvp has probably prepared a lot for TvT due to having Ryung as his first opponent, as well as having ForGG yesterday.

In basically of the ro4 interviews, they all said they didn't/don't/won't have time to prepare.

Innovation is without a doubt the best TvT player currently, sporting 75%+ winrate in TvT against some of the best Terran players while MVP doesn't break 70% against foreign players.

There's like no data at all on Mvp's TvT, he's played three series in the last three months leading up to the WCS Finals. 2-0 MKP, 0-2 LucifroN and 2-0 Bunny.

At least with Innovation we could see his game develop in Proleague and whatnot, even though it's only Bo1. I don't think you can say anything with certainty about Mvp's TvT. Only thing we know is that he was able to beat both ForGG and Ryung decisively (disclaimer: I didn't see his match against ForGG but against Ryung he looked very much in charge in all three games).

Sure, Innovation is great, and the "easily" part underestimates him by quite a bit but I don't see how Mvp's record against foreign players wherever you got that from is relevant here and I don't think an upset is completely improbable.

Also, I don't believe Innovation is "without a doubt the best TvT player currently". He's 5-3 in Proleague in HotS with two losses in the last month, that's not even close to as dominant as he would need to be in order to give him that title without second thought.

Anyway, I don't see how we can agree about anyone being the best XvY player when he's played like 10 maps in that matchup since everyone started practicing HotS. In fact, if we're going by stats, Flash has a much better TvT record and he's won 5 maps and lost none during the last month.

Did Artosis made his prediction? That would be a big help in deciding who will win this WCS S1.

I'm personally rooting for MVP!

sOs has long been one of my favorite Protosses to watch, but MVP's EU love fest yesterday was quite compelling <3. Plus, I've suffered from RSI for a very long time so I'm doubly impressed that he can play as well as he does under those conditions
