The following is a list of behaviors that will get immediate bans:

1. Whining about stream
2. Bashing other games
3. Flaming other users
4. Bashing players
5. Complaining about imbalance

Basically just be respectful. Aside from that, enjoy the games, make sure you bring an umbrella and have some delicious waffles! (#)

Did Kiwi have to engage there? I mean PuMa pulled a lot of scv's and he forced the siege up in midfield, shouldn't he just have delayed the push until PuMa was at his doorstep? seeing all those scv's not mining I would think he'd only get advantage out of the waiting-game.

You guys should lay off PuMa. Really kiwikaki has no one to blame but himself.

1) He chose XNC... he has to realize there is basically a 100% chance PuMa 1-1-1's on XNC.
2) He engaged pretty poorly there. Running into 4 sieged tanks.

I just don't get why Kiwikaki didn't pick a different map........

Kiwi's composition was pretty sick though, will definitely be doing that if i come up against the 1-1-1. To be fair, seeing that i can understand why blizz are buffing immortal range, he would have been able to do those same forcefields and still hit the tanks with the immortals.

I have to agree with many of the people in this thread, the immortals should have come around from another angle along with some zealots to attack the tanks where not only would there be no marines, but there would be no forcefields either.

kiwikaki had to know that was going to be the build when he picked that map right?

I'm gonna get flamed for raging, but why does Puma cheese his way through Protoss? He's won enough legit games, and why use a strategy that is debatably OP. Ah well, do what you have to win, but in the boring all-in way (( y u so gosu Puma I don't like more Korean Terran T.T


If I had to guess I would bet he is tired from the sheer amount of matches he has had to play today and wants to get them over as soon as possible. Also why not do a build he feels will win that he is really good at?

Wow. That was hands down the most perfect defense you could possibly do. If that wasn't enough, nothing is. Needs to be patched.


No it wasn't... He had no reason to engage yet in the first place, he could have delayed longer. His immortals were not shooting the siege tanks. The force fields protected half of the marines from dying to the zealots.


delaying would make it worse, marines grow stronger on numbers and mules oversaturates a base. if he waited till mine out terran can lift and go to expansion...

Lol... Here comes the 1/1/1 imba posts when Kiwi just had to stall longer...

He was getting a good enough composition to beat it if he just stalled longer and warped in more stalkers.

And WHY would he pick Xelnaga when 1/1/1 is so strong on that map... I can't figure his thought process.


Stalling longer doesn't help unless you have AoE. The longer he stalls, the more marines he has, the more dps he has. Derp.

Stop you can't blame him for using a strong build


You can, MVP has self respect so he refuses to use 1-1-1, there's a real player


self respect refusing to use a specific build? that's just retarded, thats like saying its self respect to not 6pool someone

dont think MVP can pull off 1-1-1 builds as perfectly as puma does.

Because 1 gate expand is insta lose to basically all other Terran builds.


1Gate FE is pretty good against most Terran builds and thts why almost every Protoss does it nowadays (except Kiwi)

But it's still not easy to hold 1/1/1 with 1Gate FE. You have the economy to beat it but u still lack AOE and less tech.
Ganzi beat me without stim. Ostojiy beat me with a nydus. Siphonn beat me with probes. Revival beat my sentry-immortal all-in.

Do you think he should have bided more time TT1? He knew that he already pulled a bunch of SCV's. Why not sit back a bit more and get out a ton of more units and overwhelm Puma.


Yes, because unupgraded gateway units and immortals are going to stop an endless swarm of mule marines.

Did you see how many scvs he pulled? Mules aren't that OP guys.

Why would Kiwi engage right there? He was in the middle of the map, so he could've danced and retreated all the way back to his base, stalling for time. With half of Pumas SCVs with the push, the longer Kiwi waited, the more he would get ahead in supply for the final battle. Nothing to be gained by charging into battle in the middle of the map.

Yeah I don't understand that either. Seems like that counter should revolve around delay, delay, delay, and never push while hes sieged if you can avoid it (which you can when its in the middle of the map). Puma had half his SCVs there doing nothing, and Kiwi had plenty of room to fall back since he engaged so far out, not sure why he didn't bide his time longer


he was more like fuck this I'm going to try if I can surprise him
I don't think I've ever wished my opponent good luck prior to a game. When I play, I play to win. I hope every opponent I ever have is cursed with fucking terrible luck. I hope they're stuck playing underneath a stepladder with a black cat in attendance a

How did he play greedy? He got a stargate, he slowed down the push... You're on a massive knife's edge against that push, it's super duper duper tough to hold.

I think he was being sarcastic as that is the usual response to whenever a Protoss losses


Went over my head, sarcasm can be hard to read on the internet.

Hard to tell who is being sarcastic and who is flat out retarded these days.
