If you watch professional sports, the commentators never get more excited than SC2 casters, and last I checked, pro sports are doing just fine. The action in-game and the noise of the crowd is more than enough to build excitement, you don't have to yell like a moron, which is aggravating and sounds fake. (I know some Spanish-speaking soccer commentators flip a shit every time there's a goal, but that shit's annoying. ) Spanish football commentators? Where's this idea that commentators for pro sports never get extremely excited coming from? It's so wrong. | ||

Don't be so hard on the kid. I was mad at him last time for his bunker cheese, but today was completely legit. I love the two rax triple orbital play...can't wait to see how DRG destroys it next time. | ||

Yeah, I think MKP leveled up a lot. His build picks, micro, macro, mind games, decision making, everything he did in this tournament is second to none. He made DRG look like a second rate Zerg player. He played like a real champ. I think a lot of it has to do with his teamates as well since team Prime is doing so well right now. I think he gained a lot skills from his teammates, like bio play from Polt and now Mech build from Byun, and better practice partners like Creator. He's probably the most improved player since his inception. | ||

For MKP to win in the fashion he did really places him in a league of MMA/MVP. Let's hope Code S goes well for him too, he showed great promise in all three matchups. He deserves it, crushing through a relatively tough pool play and winning significantly over DRG (who makes all others look like a league below). MMA/MVP would be the only players that could touch him, as his vZ has always been strongest. | ||

It's just that some people don't seem to understand the definition of a Kong. MLG is a special event, not something on the level of GSL, MSL, or OSL. In order to no longer be a Kong, you have to win one of those. | ||
