I think MaNa has the best PvT in the world actually.

Well Mana took out Puma before, his PvT is beastly.

He also took out Nada

Nada is quite bad against P tho.

What would you suggest as late game besides ghosts?


Getting a faster fourth so he can constantly produce ghosts. Not cloaking them so they can actually get energy for EMP. Not forgetting his own vikings in the middle of the map. The transition came at a very bad time.

I love Mana's PvT. I've seen him have 40+ gates late game when he was streaming.

Could be bad macro (i didn't look) but you don't want to be max supply vs a terran cause drops will destroy you.

I think foreigner protosses are just better than the korean ones.


I don't agree with that given Nani's unquestionably one of the best non-korean toss and yet really struggles over there.

I do think Mana has PvT that's right up there though, especially when it comes to lategame.

You really can't Protoss have 5 Colossus untouched and let them get to high templars. You will never win that fight. Even if you win, you lost because he will reinforce with lots of gateway units and your left over force (+vikings) will be pretty much dead vs high gateway count.

Don't know what TOP was thinking :o

Yeah, but here, if Top had enough ernergy on his ghosts he would have won this easily. He wasted his ghosts, lost some vikings for free. That's not the way you want to engage :-/

It's really awesome how those Ghosts were able to cloak, walk through 3 Storms, and still snipe Templar.

Other than that, MaNa outplayed TOP in every single category at the end there.

TvP on Shakuras Plateau

30-24 to Toss according to TLPD

TOP is 2-1 vs Toss
Mana is 17-3 vs Terran

Holy crap Mana has played a lot of games

Hehe, nice to see the Koreans facing some good opposition. Not so easy to win this tournament.

protoss should really stay with this colossi play insted of chargelot archon vs terran.

If u do that blindly, the T get absurd amount of Viking then time to type gg for the P player. The best option is to change compositions during game acording to the number of vikings the T player have.

I kinda agree, but even changing comp from colossi > chargelot/archon when terran has a lot of vikings still gets destroyed by ghosts which all terran should use by now.

Meto he is the only protoss I seen beating Puma. He just slay every terran he meets if he could just get a better PvP he would be so great

I think it was more good control by Mana. He was always out of range of EMPs, Stormed the Ghosts by anticipating their route. Always had HTs in position. Tops control was standard

I don't think his blunders were part of his plan, tho.

Its not bad macro. Its high income and the fact that he's maxed out really fast and doesn't just attack. The longer a Protoss is maxed out and the more money he banks, the better for him. Terran can't reinforce a 200/200 army as fast as Protoss with 30 gateways can.

Its very clever by MaNa to bank / float minerals when he's maxed.

Against Terran players you don't want to max out ASAP because you want to be able to warp-in in case of drops.

Yea I know, I'm talking at 150ish supply though. Rotter even mentioned he could spend his money better. I've seen him lose a lot of games with 2-3k still in the bank. He's still very good though.
