Build order losses is one thing but making mistakes and having your opponent take clear advantage of them is definitely a case in point of what defines the meaning of being outclassed, especially when the series is a sweep. | ||

IMHO they should bring out medium level code S players like Coca,clide,alive,alicia etc. Only few foreigners can beat top koreans, and only in certain matchups in series not longer than bo3 and on a good day note: dont say puma isnt code s quality pls, he obviously is Genius man. As soon as you put in enough WORK to get to that high level we should totally stop inviting you to tournaments. I mean who wants to reward hard work with 1st/2nd place prize money amirite? We should totally encourage half-assed work ethic/strategy by capping the skill level of who gets invited to major tournaments. Grow up. | ||

But the 2nd game was casted wrong. Socke didn't expect an expand-build but blind-countered a 111 all-in. This is why he built early robo, this is why he built a useless immortal, this is why he cut probes. Consequently, this is why he ended up being behind. And THEN come the clueless people and write about how Puma "outclassed" Socke, just because he made a wrong read. It's not about caster-hate, but people ought to realize why Socke was behind basicly the whole game. Puma tricked Socke by building the bunker, that was the crucial moment in the game. Please realize that I love Rotterdam's casting, it just annoyed me that the LR-thread was flooded with people screeming how much better Puma is, when in fact all he did the 2nd game was trick Socke into a inferior build. lol and u say being smart and tricking him into an inferior build doesn't mean puma is a better player? puma 3-0 socke and mc 3-0 mana. They are better players. | ||
