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! (#)

why isn't 1-1-1 used against zerg?

Because zergs has a low tech unit that kills a lot of marines unlike protoss.

They also has an easier time getting up an early expo which means if the terran stays on one base for too long he will actually fall behind, unlike against protoss.

Kiwi played it really well until the actual engagement. 1-1-1 is ridiculously strong no doubt but I think could have taken that game. Would have liked for him to delay as long as possible and then when he was ready, pull workers of his own. Army vs army+workers isn't going to end well, regardless of it being a 1-1-1 or not.
It's easy to be a Monday morning quarterback.

CoCa vs PuMa and it should be Bomber vs DRG right? Not Bomber vs SeleCt

Yes, I think MLG does head-to-head before map score.

From MLG site:
5. Pool Play Ranking (1st-6th) will be determined using each Player’s Record of Matches won and lost.
So Select is first

Lol, PuMa was Flash's practice partner and some other pros as well in BW.

It's not because he uses 1-1-1 that he's suddenly a piece of crap. PuMa is much more skilled RTS-wise than everybody else in this tournament.


Except maybe like... bomber
or drg...

Nope Select is, based on better record


MLG takes head to head? .. Could someone clarify things-,-;

MLG takes whoever won when they played, that guy is wrong. We cleared this up a hundred pages ago.

Comon, all fellow terrans.. admit this tac is incedible imbalanced. I do this on ladder when i feel for a easy/free win vs toss. Its extreamly easy to exectue and extreamly hard for protoss to defend. My winerate with this tactic is superhigh, im not sure how they can patch it without damaging other matchups tought.

lol@all these comments bitching about balance. sickening.

that result was due to Kiwi getting impatient and just a-moving into the siege group. Go figure. He had the middle of the map in stand-off mode, had better economy, etc...

Kiwi won't blame that loss on a build order or TERRAN IMBA!! QQ!! - He'll blame it on a poor engagement.

edit:

Especially lol'ing at all these "I no longer respect Puma as a human being" comments...rofl


Ye Kiwi should defenitly have waited for more tanks and marines so he would get stomped even harder...

Do what ya gotta do to win. If there is a expliotive strategy that is allowed and damn near impossible to hold under normal cercumstances, do it. Money is on the line and like the old poker saying goes, no friends when playing.

Kiwikaki had 4 gates, a robo and stargate off of one base. That was part of the problem IMO, too much stuff for one base

In Hearthstone we pray to RNGesus. When Yogg-Saron hits the field, RNGod gets to work

quoted for truth

protoss diamond players in the thread needs to stop crying because it's getting really old. it is not unbalanced one bit. Kiwi did not counter that build and he wasnt even expecting it since he put up a nexus that he later cancelled.

I highly doubt he gives a damn about your "respect" for him. Good Game Puma, Kiwi engaged that in the worst possible way but everyone just jumps to oh look 1/1/1 wins again. LR threads with people like you are a joke.

Well, clearly these guys that are saying the only reason 1/1/1 is so strong is because P is greedily expanding... are wrong.
All in every close positions map, who cares if they know it's coming! Xel'naga caverns might as well be the new steppes of war for TvP.

Because when a Code S spot is on the line, he should do anything to get it.

I hate the TvP 1-1-1 right now but you can't fault pros for using it until a counter gets found/a patch is done.



cept MVP, who said anyone who uses 1-1-1 is disgraceful and that he wont use that op build anymore .... what a baller

Yeah I'm pretty sure he never said those exact words. Were you complaining when MC was winning GSLs with 6gates almost every game PvZ?


Not those exact words but he said he thought 1-1-1 was broken and he wouldnt use it, hence his nickname conscience terran in korea, because he feels bad

big mistake to cancel the nexus tbh, if you don't have a nexus there is no reason for terran to force the issue and try to attack you, with nexus pressure is on terran and has to make something happen quick before the nexus kicks in, and having ure army in the middle to fake engagements + phoenixes threatning to snipe banshees delays the push a lot ..

He also didn't have to engage there when all tanks were already sieged .. at least engage when some tanks are not sieged when he tries to move forward
