MKP has such amazing micro that he can make seemingly awful strategies and compositions work. I'd get rolled by Banelings if I went MMM vZ and I imagine most other players would, too. But he can make it work and it's often spectacular to watch.
There are plenty of other Terrans around if all you ever want to watch is Reactor Hellion FE into Marine Tank Medivac, but I find that really, really stale with the occasional spectacle in big fights or multi-pronged attacks.
But I foresee a lot of MMM hate incoming later. MKP hwaiting! |

how can someone hate mkp? edit: i don't get it
I hate the way he plays greatly. Like his he played vs drg recently for example. marine marauder vs zerg? Marine thor? Hellion thor? Or doing things like meching vs protoss. The list goes on and on without even needing to go back to far in time. This is not solid play! He is such a great player but makes me not like him for constantly doing gimmicky strategies that rely on the opponent not knowing how to defend them because they are rarely/never used by other players. Of course he plays solid games as well, and im all for doing stuff like that mixed into regular play but he does that stuff constantly! He always finds new gimmicks too. Back when he first got famous for mass marine and splitting vs mass bane I said it was entertaining but obviously not going to work in the long term, and I was right, but he just switches to new weird ass strats in cycles >.<. Oh, also, he fits into a group of terrans that use a style of play that I really can't stand. Another person who does this is Sc. That is, low econ terran aggression that lasts several minutes that relies on mules to maintain unit production while zerg is forced to make units or workers and can't keep up the trades. Players who use this style of play leave a bad taste in my mouth. Again, he is a great player, and can execute any strat as good as any other top terran, I just hate the strategies and approach he takes to the game.
I'm a DRG/zerg fan and I don't like MKP either (too effeminate), but the reasons you give for disliking him are what make him a great player. He does what he must in order to win. I respect that. It would be foolish of him to play standard games when he knows that DRG would beat him at standard games. That's why he takes huge risks like his 3 orbital/2 ebay build. And if his opponents aren't prepared for his tactics and strategies, then they don't deserve to win.
My thoughts exactly, lol. I used to hate him because I figured he was just getting by with abusing the shit out of marines and other forms of cheese (thankfully Nestea dispensed justice way back then). Recently however, it feels like he has the solid fundamentals to back up his wide assortment of strategies. I would describe him as what MVP used to be, but with far weaker standard play. Still pretty good relative to other terrans though....and he's a big ass crybaby . |

own them up MARINEKINGUUU
p/s i also hate this sc2 rats who constantly talking about "in normal game (200/200 apparently, which zerg can make in 12 minutes without any pressure, but terran need alot more time for this) he can't win him, so he has to cheese". What cheese? he's agressive and unpredictable and he has to be, especially vs zerg. I bet you are one of them who make fast 3rd, then dies in 5 min, then says "newb only 20 scvs(drones/probes)". It's all about win here, nothing else. Watch july, he's still in code s despite lack of ideal mechanics and strategies. Why? because of agression and willing to WIN every game, not just play "tight is right"Last edit: 2012-03-28 14:31:17 |

MKP should be a shoe-in to advance, but now that Tasteless is on the side of calling him the UNDISPUTED best player in the world, he'll go 0-2.
You are the only person who i am happy to hear say that mkp will get 2-0ed. Thank you on behalf of all mkp fans! <3 |

I guess, to each his own. If you like the same thing over and over again, then that's fine. I like people coming out with a full arsenal of all kinds of weapons. The newer, the better.

MKP will advance 100% he is on fire right now! as for the 2nd in group i hope for july, we need some more zerg players in the next round, and ZVT is at least his playground. i just love his nonstop agression style, although it sometimes costs him the game. sry fans but i dont see Zenio advancing against the 2 terran beasts, although he might be able to bash july if they face off. |
