Yeah, should be totally easy to defend a strong 1/1/1 push even though you've lost 25 probes to harass.

Yeah, I swear that just seeing this build makes all LR go full retard.

Top played better that game, DEAL WITH IT.

Really? I mean, seriously, TOP could easily win that 1 game. It's not 1/1/1 that lost Mana the second game.

The attack by Top wasn't that effective to be honest. 8 marines, a medivac and 3 hellions for just 14 probes. Not exactly the kind of trade you're hoping for doing this as a terran I'd say.


what? units that cost no gas and very few minerals traded for half of mana's economy?

yea bad trade -.-

Blame cheesekingprime, it was his build originally =p

TOP executed pretty well so far, even if it's lame to see more 1 base shenanigans.

Don't really see Mana holding the actual push

Yeah it's a nice build, I just can't enjoy it due to how powerful 1 base Terran is.


Ummm, this build was by Polt no?

I don't think so, Polts original one was 2 starport marine-banshee-raven which he used in the first few GSLs.

As much as I hate watching one base play, it is a smart decision. These guys are playing to win. Not to give us fun macro games to spectate

Polt's build/timing was with marauders, marines, 2 banshees and a raven for pdd. Over time it has been perfected into modern day 1-1-1.

Guys really, Top controlled better with his drop and mana just fell apart..

And are you guys serious? Top not being able to beat Mana in a Macro game? Get real

You didn't see Game 1 did you?

MaNa looks to be really taking advantage of the fact that Code S Terrans haven't been playing many Protoss lately XD

And still he wins, it doesn't really matter what you do with that all-in unless you forget siege mode or something.


Nah, thats not true. MaNa could have tried to stall the push on TOP's side of the map while leaving 2 stalkers to defend behind. He lost so many probes + mining time and stalkers while fighting the initial banshee so that was kind of his fault as well.

1-1-1 is very strong, but in that case MaNa's fault did lead to his defeat more than then power of 1-1-1 and even Protoss players should be able to see that.

That seems like a pretty strong build by TOP. Really difficult to hold back if protoss is greedy and takes his expansion too early.


I thought it is better to do a really fast expand vs 1-1-1?

Well, Mana lost 25probes. If Top sat back expanded, he would have rolled Mana nevertheless.

ofc TOP can win a macro game vs MaNa. But he also knows that 1/1/1 is really strong against P. So why not go for it to even the score?! That being said, i hate this stupid 1/1/1 Terran-lame-strategy !!!

Polt did a Raven Banshee Stim all-in in the first GSL which is pretty different to the current Tank version.

Something about mana's play always makes me angry, I can't stand watching him play and always root for whoever he is playing. That being said, it feels so dirty rooting for a 1 base terran push lol.

OK, FINE. I WILL SWITCH TO TERRAN AND ONEBASE MY WAY TO MASTERS. I KNOW THIS IS WHAT YOU WANT, BLIZZARD, I GUESS IT IS TIME TO OBEY.

and in the process, make the entertainment value of the game sink for all the other people who still play it...
