Might be an exception to the rule I guess. | ||

Maybe if Protoss wasn't simply better than Terran in a classical late-game situation, Puma would have won 4-0 (yes I play Protoss but I'm not enough biased to deny this). But last games were mostly won by the balls anyway. | ||

In the finals, I think evenly matched players will always show great games, but there is always one GSL finalist that does not deserve to be there, aside from GSL season 1 and MKP. | ||

If Ali played StarCraft, that's how he'd play. Nothing but enormous respect from me! | ||

Might be an exception to the rule I guess. maybe because foreigners dont spend as much time as koreans on building build orders and practicing to perfect it. Plus, koreans are in teams where each player practices a lot so they could help refine the build. | ||

I believe, Puma showed us today that this is not the case. Remember the game on metalopolis where he was down 40-50 supply against 200/200 toss and won due to incredible ghost control? | ||

I also liked Getorp and Incontrol casting the finals, even tho I really hated them during the season. So NASL now just has to fire the sound- and cameracrew and it will be awesome(or excellent) in Season2. | ||

From these games, I think Terran just has a higher skill cap. I honestly don't think Puma outplayed MC because of MC was so spot on about the drops and insta reacted to everything, but Terran's harass options are just so strong.. especially when you have a top tier Terran player doing it. | ||
