So, without last 2 games, Group D is confirmed regardless of the results of last 2 games, right?

If he clicked a medivac by purpose wouldn't that indicate that it wasn't a missclick?

Stephano actually sent his lings to the third behind the rocks. We could see it when they were watching the replay with Stephano's camera... That's why those lings were standing there in front of the rocks.

No idea why Stephano sent them there though.

That's what i was thinking, since whenever the Terran does a complete wall off, scouting units behave the same way that those zerglings did, they'll attempt to make it to the point in question, but then stop when they encounter an obstacle.

The drop in game 3 wasn't all in. People need to stop calling any for of offense an all in. Two medi's of marines can be lost without it losing you the game. Its not ideal, but that is a harass, not a god damned all in.


Losing a double medivac drop that early without doing much damage is actually a lot worse than ideal and isn't simple "harass". Harass implies it can do damage or if it doesn't at least give you potential positional favour. Pumas play needed to do lots of damage if he lost the drops. So while not being say an scv pull type thing it's still vital to not lose them.

It definitely isn't all-in but if T doesn't do any damages you were just gonna see game 1 again...

effing drops are killer.

I did and it was a fluke imo. Thankfully Puma didn't dissapoint in the third game. Here's to hoping he'll tear the tournament again.


lol a fluke ?


Yeah kinda like when KiLLeR beat MC.


ok thx you, for you very intelligent input. Mr double digit. Did you actually see the serie?

Meh, I just ignore them. I got to see PuMa play well and found another awesome Zerg to look out for. I'm disappointed I won't get to see Stephano play more in this tourney (also that this is the first time I've really got to watch him play), but there's always another!

I disagree. I think Puma is on another level. His results show it as well, quite clearly. Not saying Stephano is bad, he is definitely an up and comer, and he played brilliantly the first game.

Great games nonetheless. Even though the 3rd was a bit short.

If Puma is on another level then Stephano shouldn't be playing in this tournament, because cmon, he has no chance!

They are still fail when they have to buy a top korean to actually win matches!!


So what? Are they taking the money from you? They can sign whoever they want if they feel want to and if the player agrees, noone has the right to make such stupid blanket statements.. What are you people smoking ?

No matter the outcome of the actual match, it's good to see that puma actually had to make an effort to beat stephano. Unlike MLG where the koreans rolled through every zerg player with pretty much a single build.

Hope for the foreigner scene yet.

It looked like Stephano sent 2 lings to deal with the reaper, at the same time minimap-clicked the rest of his zerglings to his main to deal with a potential drop (dont think he had an overlord in posistion), but misclicked and they ran to his rocks. A mistake which lost him the game.

Uh. Huk went to europe for assembly (and to talk to nazgul) and then went to blizzcon invitational then went to korea for his code s match and now is in europe again. Can you explain why you think tsl killer has had a worse travelling schedule?

Yeah, I actually watched both series. Nice jab at my post count though man, real mature. Also, if you must attempt to insult someone's intelligence, at least punctuate and spell correctly.

Puma only has one result. I don't get how he has become this "amazing Terran with so many accomplishments". He is really good but you can't say he is on another level based from anyone based on ONE result ;(. They both really good players and it was a really tight series.

It's had to not do damage with 14 marines + 2 medivacs + stim before infesters/muta finish

The fact that the zerglings were not there made it go from harass to game-winning xD

It was an early drop but due to its timing it was safe. Muta's could not be out at that point so the odds of Puma losing the medivacs or even the marines were slim to none. So he could of done no damage and still transition

So I really hope Nerchio will advance, or we will have zero Zergs in the playoffs.
