well MC has a fuck ton of fanboys


Mainly because of his warp prism play against Select. And the base race against Mana. The rest of the players didn't show any exceptional moves.

why the heck is it fine that toss complain about 1/1/1, and not ok when zerg complain about blink stalker allins?

If you are wondering..neither are needed.

Because:
1. ZvP is in general in favour of zerg right now. TvP is in favour of terran.
2. Blink stalkers is not impossible to beat at all, and not as prevalent.
3. You can scout blink and counter it ez. 1/1/1 doesn't matter if you know its coming or not. you still lose, no matter how good you are (almost).
4. Even if protoss holds on, Terran just does it all over again (Game 1 in this very set).

Why the heck is a zerg even in this thread complaining about pvz? 1/1/1 is terrible right now, doesn't matter what goes on in pvz.



keep in mind mc also lost the nexus in the first push in the 1st game, he also rebuilt it and over-econned it is a VERY hard position to lose form but he made every thing possible to make it so.

The bolds are just so ridiculously bias i won't even deal with them. Also i was just bringing up a point where no race should complain about builds till sc2 is longer so we have more "BW balance".

ps: my post is for the first person

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.

I think you might be the only person that actually thinks the EG-TSL drama was Puma's fault. Congratulations.

MC does 4gate/stargate/DT rush/proxy, wins a tournament = Best player /world
Puma does 1 1/1/1 and then a hybrid 1/1/1 with a weird timing, wins a tournament = Most hated person.

Yep.Sure is great.
OK

Because tbh no other than MC can truely be called the sickest nerd baller! But i agree, Socke and especially Mana were probably more impressive. But on the other hand that's because you didn't expect them to do that well, while with MC, everyone was expecting him to be in the final anyway. Why would Moonglade be the sick nerd baller though?

I lol'ed.
Infestors got buffed, that's all.

Very bad series, seriously, since Blizzard won't make a patch until HotS, PvT will be imbalanced for a pretty long time, and it sucks.

Now the real question is : how many Terrans in the first places of MLG Anaheim ?

Because to most people we actually know far and a way this is serious imbalance.
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.

Zerg was imbalanced and it was right to discuss it. Now protoss is imbalanced, and it should be discussed. Some people just hate imbalance regardless of race. I know this is a tough concept for some people who have blinders on.

Not to be a douche, but your pointing out mistakes from a TWO time GSL winner? I'm sure MC knows what he's doing and has the control. Let's not take anything away from Puma here, he's just really good. And MC is really good as well.


A lot of the people in this thread are commenting as if MC played perfectly and still lost. They are quick to forget about things like bad engagements, playing an econ style when you know your opponent is going to all in, losing a warp prism full of hts, getting a whole squad of ht's emp'd, separating a huge group of stalkers from the rest of your army. Ironically, whenever someone all-ins idra in a game, its usually people going on and on about how idra shouldn't drone/engage at that time.

The thing is, he played much better than puma. At one point he was 170 to 130 supply. He stopped 3 drops like nothing. He took down 2 barracks losing little units
He took down a command center turning into orbital. He was 2-2 vs 3-2 at the end. MC played better, its simply because amulet got taken away, if you mismicro even once, your fucked. MC mismicroed his prism, costing him the game, which is absolutely ridiculous cuz he was so far ahead.
