This guy beat Ret, Squirtle, July and MC in his run where took first place in NASL Season 1 after advancing out of the Open Tournament where he beat Clide, Alive, Dimaga and Night End. And there is two good Korean Terrans there (Clide and Alive) for those who don't think Puma can beat a Korean Terran. Then he goes to IEM and beats MC, Socke, Nerchio, SaSe and Stephano, and gets first place, again. Then he goes to MLG and owns through the Open Bracket to be seeded and goes undefeated in Pool D taking out Kiwikaki, Nada, Sheth, Ret, and Moonan. He ends up losing to Cocoa and then Nada in the Championship Bracket and manages 5th place, but he must have been exhausted playing so many more games. Let's look at the big names alone he beat from those 3 tournaments: MC July Ret Squirtle Clide Alive Dimaga Night End Socke Nerchio SaSe Stephano Nada Sheth Kiwikaki Moonan | ||

Bomber should be a good measuring stick to his ability. immvp made him look pretty bad in the MLG online invitational. | ||

Deserves props for being the first Terran to use such an obviously effective spell so well though. Otherwise I'm going to need at the least some GSL results against good terrans. | ||

They say, "wow! she's hot!" you say, "no she's really normal looking at best." They say, "wow great exciting games." you say, "they played bad." They say, "It's exciting a foreigner will win this tournament which had a pretty good contingent of Koreans!" you say, "No it's not because the Koreans who played in this tournament were bad as evidenced by the fact they lost." It was an intense series with a lot of multitasking and constant action. No. I'm someone who is capable of watching, analyzing and comparing games to other games. In the game on Temple I spent most of the game wondering if Puma was ever going to attempt a drop past his initial failure or if he was content to sit and let Idra bank 10k/10k before ever doing anything because I know what [insert Code S Terran here] would be doing and it wouldn't be sitting around. I don't think every game has to conform to the high standards of GSL or has to be "high level" in order to be entertaining. However, if people are going to pretend as if the series was the best possible TvZ I'm going to call bullshit on it because it obviously wasn't and that obviousness should be evident to anyone who is actually familiar with real high level play in SC2. Your analogy is stupid. I didn't deny that the games were exciting, I denied that they were "high level" games or were in any way indicative of what good TvZ looks like. I've seen exciting games between two bronze league players on Day[9]'s newbie Tuesdays but I don't claim that they were awesome play. That analogy is far more appropriate. | ||

Beyond that I think they put vods on esl.tv but not to sure about that because the site is such I mess I try to avoid it. | ||
