Protoss just needs sometime to cope with it. But still I think these 3 games can go either way really. In the last game, If MC didn't leave with his stalker he can stall the Terran army even more and build up some unit to stand a head to head fight. I wonder why every unit is weaker than it's counterpart Storm does 40 DPS EMP does 100 Stim Mauruars do 30 DPS stalkers do 14 DPS 2 tanks do over 25 DPS a more expensive collusi do 18 on own the line Protoss is just weaker. Protoss weaker? still 3 toss in top 4 lol Europeans arent exactly the top tier like korea is. I dont think race stats in Top X tell anyone anything if it isnt coming from korea

Where is PuMas team? I haven't seen anyone besides him He's even using MC translator what happened?

Apparently, it's the Collector's Edition.

MC's couple mistakes were too great and those cost him the game :[
Very well played by Puma, I hope to see more matches between these two ^^ People whined in BW as well, it's just everyone knew no balance patches or expansions were coming. And people should have the same mindset in SC2, treat the game as no patches were coming, see how you can improve instead of your race.
What happens if nobody figures out how to beat something after 6 months?
That will force the players to switch races, since they don't make any money with the losing race.
Patching is not bad.

MC looks terribly sad... it's making me even sadder

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. Top 4 = 3 protosses, indeed, they need a buff.
Regardless of what I think about the balance implications of this series (if there are any at all, I'm not certain) this is a stupid statement.
MC and Puma were by far the highest caliber players at this event and you can't group them in with the foreigners that attended. In the end this competition was extremely likely to come down to MC vs Puma. It did and the only series worth analyzing is theirs because the rest were a tier below.

wow mc is ecstatic about winning an orange hoodie

I feel bad for MC and want to hug him and kiss his cheek

cause that is all the sponsoring blizzard wanted to do for esports, that's why that blizzard employee is there.

lol When Protoss players talk about imbalance topic it's okay. When Zerg does it's just QQ.

At least there is bound to be a patch soon  Always look for the silver lining. Im sorry but blizz wont nerf terran. I think we need a new morrow who will just 1/1/1 every game with toss till blizz nerf it or buff toss. I have no idea why all terrans dont do it every game. Is it a morality thing ? Clearly here is a build when decently executed will beat all tosses in the world and there is no good response and doesnt require toss to be 100 times better than terran to hold. PuMA cheesed his way to final win and people are saying he is good ? I saw nothing in this game from Puma that any terran in the world wont be capable off. He is just a random code B scrub who has trouble in korea since he sucks at TvT since everyone is a terran there. Let me see him beet MVP or bomber and I'll agree he is good. All he did is come out of korea to own non koreans  . Ok I hate all this Puma bashing. He was a badass practice partner in BW, practicing with people like Flash. This guy went to NASL open brackets and the NASL finals and WON. He's pretty damn good.
PUma deserves his bashing after what he did to TSL. that's why i don't root for him. Plus he is a boring personality. MC is so charismatic, but cocky to a fault sometimes. I didn't think he prepared for Puma today. And now Puma is in MC's head... It's going to be REALLY hard to overcome that pyschological edge Puma has over MC IMO
BTW I don't dislike EG. they did what is in their best interests. I think PUMA could've handled the team transfer 100% better than he did.
