If his macro was a bit better he'd be even better. 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 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. | ||

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. | ||

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. | ||

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 | ||

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. | ||

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. | ||
