mkp vs herO ace match!! xD i know it wont happen but i can hope.
on a sad note i was hoping to learn something from the terran games today
As if you didn't learn to re-locate your main on Habitation Station.
Now for me, forever known as Re-location Station
Wasn't metalopolis's distance to the gold even further? Even I did that build in silver league back in the day.

Why?
I am just trolling, except for him getting crushed, I am not trolling about that.
MKP is one of the very few Terran players that I really dislike, that is probably the reason.
MKP is so likable imo. may i ask your reason why you dislike him?
severely limited player managing to make himself relevant in a bad game. if this was bw he would never make it out of ogn qualifiers
couldn't you say that about a lot of sc2 pros??? (the ones who were either 'bad' at bw or didnt play bw) but what is your point?
MKP's micro is also really good so I don't see the point about BW... I guess there must be some people to hate his personality (I personally don't) or play style (I personnaly don't like SCV pulls but it's not like he often does it), but one cannot say his style wouldn't be good for BW imo.
The old MKP wouldve SCV pulled into storm. I dont think MKP had a chance to beat a protoss like Rain going into late game his timing was actually very crisp for MKP standards.
Nothing tops what MKP did with his MM army on creep vs KyrixZenith speed banes
A lot tops that actually
What the hell are you smoking lol. I'm not a MKP fan and not a prime fan but Kyrix MKP game 2 (i think) is the best micro i have EVER seen for a terran.
But those baneling control are not good and MKP was on creep for the game against Kyriux.....
It's nowhere impressive.... the guy is rolling bane left and right and don't know what to do. No bane splits. I guess it's a foreigner with those banes ? It's not korean value (also ok kyrix was not near the level we have today. At least he splited his bane)
MarineKing was barely on the creep at all. Most of his micro was off creep in the middle of the tree things (still impressive - but not on creep)
Unless the highlight video missed that out, which I doubt it, as it would have been the main focal point of the micro
Maybe you're right.
But the baneling controls on the happy vids are just BAD (ok i'm gold) but from a watcher perspective this is bad micro for a gm with banes
Yeah it was definitely a case of "kite the ball of banes by having a section of marines close to it at all times" - I agree with you.

yeah and habitation is easier to walloff too
MKP really should place the depot further from the watch tower though

Or just start from the other side first to avoid that so quickly

depends on which old MKP, the old MKP would have straight up killed rain with 2 medivac push lol

You can see the mining from the tower, should show up on the mini-map.
Hey casters, next time you say that the X player got too much, look at the other guys army please... its really NOT THAT HARD, while MKP had a lot, Rain got Timewarps and 5 Collosi (and quite a few zealots too) waiting for MKP to come, it would have been a total choke if Rain didnt manage to kill MKP army

he had 40 army supply up + about 20 SCVs, it was just the place of engagement + rain stalling for more collosi/FFs

MKP probably DID have too much, but it was just shoved down a corridor of melting lazers - they weren't "right" but they werent as wrong as you are making out.

Not sure if you are being sarcastic because i don't really get what you are saying. My point was the marine control is good but the bane control isn't. It's just a pack of bane running arround. Not lots of small packs. But maybe i'm wrong. I don't have a good memory so...

MKP's marine split vs Kyrix was impressive because he was the first to do it that well. Now I don't think it is so rare among top tiers korean terrans.

old MKP would have opened up banshees on daybreak doing a lot of damage. get further ahead with his medivac push. then sit back and fail to defend zealot runbys and throw a huge lead resulting in his eventual elimination in the OSL and allowing Rain to get through to go on and win it D:

Yeah all you have to do is look at the UI/Caster Interface on the highlight video to put a time-stamp on it hahahaha.
