Edit: Seriously, he could have had 2 immortals and 1-2 colossus instead of the phoenix (and he would have won).


You realize that Blizzard patched immortals specifically because they said 1-1-1 was imbalanced...

maybe iam missing something... why does he expand when he knows he is going 1-1-1

Nexus first is the closest thing to a counter the 1/1/1 has right now. It gives you enough time for the econ boost to kick in and hopefully gives you enough to deal with the push, assuming you control everything absolutely perfectly.

As expected the immortal buff doesnt help alot at all, the main problem with 111 is marines.


I would have to agree with this. Immortals are absolute shit against marine, no matter the range

lol @ you guys

it's a game, you play to win. If 1-1-1 gave him the biggest win% and this is really his last hurdle to winning the tourney he'd be fucking stupid to not do it.

Doesn't mean people have to like it, though. There shouldn't be a single build with a 90% winrate in any RTS, imho.


Exactly, but it also doesn't mean that people need to cry or whine about it. And you are right, there shouldn't be a single build with a huge win rate, but now you should know who to blame instead the player who uses it.

If he doesn't make those initial immortals he dies to the initial 3 tanks, he didn't have the time or money for 1-2 collosus. The stargate was just desperation and when the game was already over

Even as a zerg player it's sad watching Ps getting stomped by that 1-1-1 push. The fact that your economy is better than your opponent after pulling 85% of your scvs is disgusting. On the other hand JYP should've went for a couple of colossus, rather than phoenix, I think.

This man speaks the truth. Part of it is also the whole shady EG transfer where he pretty much said "fuck you" to his old team manager who helped bring him up.

Off course he plays to win.
But that doesn't mean we respect him for doing that.

yeah, id 1-1-1 too if i was puma.

but, as mvp said, 1-1-1 is terrible for fans. why do you guys think puma has way less fans than any other korean who goes to foreign events? Theres a reason most people cringe at 1-1-1, but i dont blame him for doing it. i blame blizzard for making the MULE such a retarded macro mechanic, encouraging retarded scv all ins, which arent even "all in"

oh wow that's distorting the truth to say the least. Assuming he "pretty much" said anything is just wild speculation on your part.

There is no all in version.

Someone wrote it a long time ago. It's only all in if you fly your orbital there too. I feel like this was said in GSL 3 when Rain played or maybe 2 with Bitbybit

This feels like dejavu when Puma won the last IEM. Are we going to have 200 pages of utter rage/venting frustration about this again? Has that done anything to the game? Did that change the way Puma plays?

It's a strong push, and until there's a surefire way of defending it, it will happen constantly. Complain all you want, but it's been beaten to death at this point.
Remember not only to say the right thing in the right place, but far more difficult still, to leave unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting moment.
