hahahahahahahahaa loving all the comments about people wanting to jump ship from SC2 to something else.

All I can say is this: Hurry up and don't bother saying goodbye. You won't be missed.

I play Terran, but those games were screwed up. MC played great. Protoss just have to work a lot harder than Terran in the matchup atm.

OK, my stupid high Gold Toss analysis of the game.

Game 1: MC brilliantly defended the first push. I believe that at that point it should've been GG, but Mules are just that good. Bad engagement in the 2nd fight.

Game 2: if MC wanted to go no upgrades, he had to be more aggressive. He wasn't and timed the warp prism uppgrade at the worst time possible and paid the price.

Game 3: MC didn't play so good at all. Bad engagements, etc etc. Still good micro, but not good enough.

Don't get me wrong, MC is my favorite player. He just didn't play at MC-level.

This is ridiculous.... Protoss needs their warpgate research changed back and insta-high templar storms back to deal with Zerg and Terran now. There just seems to be nothing they can do.

Bug Fixes Fixed an issue where, when facing a SlayerS terran, completing a hatchery would cause a medivac and 8 marines to randomly spawn nearby and attack it.

Snipe the Raven => win?


Yes, he had 1 Dt and Puma had no orbital


PDD prevents raven snipe, marines in such numbers pretty much ravage stalkers

No it doesnt if there is that many stalkers and marines would have not had enough time to kill all stalkers before sniping raven and after that only unit MC needed was dark templar

The ilarius think about that state of metagame is see MC try to do weird stuff to try to win a single game, like hide base, try to snipe raven to win with 1 DT lol....

How T can enjoy the game and defend the balance i really don't understand... I don't play anymore and was a random player and i feel that SC2 will die soon if something don't change...

GG to Puma is a great player but here is not a matter of skill anymore...

wtf are you talking about

Remember when zergs were crying 2 months ago about protoss being unbeatable and than they changed up their strategy and playstyle?

Protoss will do the same ,so instead of QQ'ing on forums hopefully they put their effort into finding a solution, but I'm sure the top toss are trying, granted MC just lost, look what Mana did to PuMa in group stage.


I distinctly remember a massive buff to Infestors, actually, and that's when most serious QQ from Zerg stopped. I also remember a Spore Crawler buff and a huge nerf to WG timing.
A sound mind in a sound body, is a short, but full description of a happy state in this World: he that has these two, has little more to wish for; and he that wants either of them, will be little the better for anything else.

Wasn't everyone complaining about Zerg imba after MLG Columbus?


No, it was Korean imba. GSL Zergs handle the SlayerS build much better.

Congrats to Puma and keep your head up MC...you'll figure this out soon!

It's hard to base trade with a terran when they can fly their buildings to an area protected by siege tanks, PDDs and marines

I really wish MC would get a single HT to feedback ravens, or Protoss in general. All that gas on DT coulda totally screwed the raven over. That's not just hindsight, HT to own ravens has been my hope for awhile now.

Otherwise, this was a really disappointing finals--not worth losing sleep.


Just another 350 gas (for archives and 1 templar), no big.

This series was about MC reacting poorly to basically everything puma did + some micro mistakes.It just wasn't his day.So all u emo kiddies looking for attention can suck it and go play LoL, or other retarded no skill based games.



His TvP is top notch atleast. Though he did that 1-1-1 all in, in 2 games but you can't blame him for doing something that he knows work

Zergs didn't learn shyt. They got their spore crawlers buffed (faster repositioning vs VR openings) and Protoss's 4gate was nerfed with the increased Warpgate research build time. They also had infestors buffed.

Now thats an ideea... nerf the PDD. Make it searchable, lower the duration, its to much for a 'force multiplier' spell.

PuMa outclassing MC with his skillful one base play. Clearly deserves the win.
