The Chosen One has spoken.

The QQing one more like it.


Just be quiet please...

Why? Alicia's PvT consists of 90% voidrays and DTs so I don't get his qqiing.

Clearly the 1-1-1 build is awesome and makes for great games. Love that that it denies scouting any solid scouting, prevents protoss expanding and allows the Terran all twice in a row. Also, love how the raven makes stalkers useless, since they are protoss's only solid anti air.



I agree. I love how it makes the game easy and stress free for the observer because you know who is going to win the game before it actually ends!

WTF people saying teching to colossus? Against 3 banshees and a raven, you aren't gonna have any stlkaers, and you are gonna die. MC lost to banshees that game and he teched to charge which was a far smaller investment.


he overreacted to the tanks. made like 5 immortals lol... also engaged in the worst location possible, and didn't back as pdd was set down. it's cuz he thought he could just win even though he attacked into a choke cuz he was so far ahead

You can only do it with Stalker, and he had those in his base because of Banshees

The difference is 6gate is so easy to stop.
MC exactly knew what was coming and still lost, even he did everything perfect.


Bullshit, you need colossus to defend that.

U saw the first engagement? oO

As sad as I am that Puma won that game, I can't help but feel it was good for the future that he did.
I pretty much never blame inbalance, but 1/1/1 I've found pretty damn imba from the start. This game was probably the best example yet of it. Hopefully Blizzard will pay attention now, this really needs to be nerfed.


You can't nerf 1-1-1 without making Terran helplessly bad.

if they got rid of banshee completely terran would still be fine.

haha that was sick, have the feeling MC should not have re-expanded after the first push. Should have sensed another all-in coming. Also some collossus would have been nice!


Hahahahahahahah, how is a 1 base protoss with an excess of probes and gates gonna hold another off another all-in? God...



Well then the first all in was successful right? The second won just finished the job

Best toss in the world.....Makes no mistakes.......Holds off first all-in.........25 supply up..........terran does same attack again.......wins............


Too much damage to banshees in between attacks = mistake

Puma did the least damage with his CLOAKED banshee of ANY terran I have ever seen do this build. Puma's banshee control was not even close to up to par with people normally doing this build. And yet he still beat the best toss, even with the ineffective harass.


Did you not see the massive amounts of damage between the first and second attacks?

Or did you just chose to ignore it?

1/1/1 pretty OP. Shouldn't be able to transition into a second wave even more powerful as the first and win like that. Oh well..GG. You got him in game 2 MC!


Why not? He did a lot of damage with the first attack, he has mules. You are lacking understanding of the game ,there is a reason that when an all-in fail the next step is all-in again. I'm not defending the use of this build, but I'd do it if I'm playing MC on xel'naga.

Puma was 30 supply behind, just saying.

More like 25 and 20 of it was the worker difference.



So mules make 25 supply worth of probes off 1 cc.

Nice to know.

Nah MC mined more before the first attack but was less cost effective.
Puma mined more/it was equal between the attacks cause MC was now oversaturated 1 base vs. 1 base mules.
Yeah, well, you know, that's just like, your opinion man

Of course you are a Zerg, I've yet to see a Zerg not whining about Protoss.


Sheth?

I'm obviously talking about low-ranked Zerg players in TL, because professionals know that the races are balanced.

uhh...every race has a thing they hate and you can't really expect a 1 year game to be fully balanced yet.

You pressure with drops while you tech up and get a third because the toss has to stay in his base.

Butthurt protosses whining about 1base terran all over this thread. You do realize puma is a good terran and can pull off all ins as well as straight up games right? It's not like he's a random noob who lucked out with a 1base allin. It's pure skill, even those 1base strats

If 1-1-1 was unstoppable it would been used every single game in a tvp, but it's not unstoppable, it's a risk.



amen.

imho it is not a gimme win, it's just too powerful for what it requires. i'm really getting bored of watching so many crap GSL games due to it, to the extent that I might stop watching GSL.
