As a masters protoss, I find pvt to be one of the funner options; protoss really has a lot of options. That said, theirs a lot of truly retarded shit terran can do. I remember Ret saying something similar about ZvT on sotg - terran can just do so much shit that requires a variety of responses. Puma's TvP won't be as good as Hero's PvT eventually. Puma's TvP is about hoping your opponent makes a mistake, whereas Hero's pvt is about scouting adapting and having faith in yourself to have good macro/micro and decision making.

Hard to enjoy games as a spectator when puma just pulls scvs every game too.

Hey yo guys just woke up! Assuming by the posts here , Puma is winning with all-ins?

Good thing Ill catch at least 1 game

no. he is not actually.


Everyone has to go all in at one point or the games would never end.


I have problems with that statement. A RTS game should never be built around such things to that degree and it's false. All-ins are part of the game, but not everything is black and white.

LOL at the people who are saying that terran is OP and Puma is abusive. How did Hero win Dreamhack then? Everyone said the 1-1-1 was unbeatable and imba until Hero crushed it at DHW11.


Puma opened 1-1-1 Mind games into Expo, Hero Expo'd anyway so it became macro games within even footing, i dont like aggressive posts like this -_-

puma wins = terran op

give credit where credit is due, these games are awsome and both players are playing pretty good, whoever wins this deserves it.


I think most of the rage is because Puma can pull half of his SCVs for an offensive advantage and then micro around Hero's base for 2-3 mins without any serious economic penalty.


^This, many people can understand this simple logic, Why the mule was introduced is just unexplainable, id of much preferred some sort of dbl scv making at a +X more seconds as economic boost instead of a no supply, 50 energy, income of 370 minerals mule.


This would:
1) Less scv pulling all ins.
2) 1-1-1 openings become extremely weaker
3) Less rage from fans


The reason the MULE is introduced is without it Terran is behind on income in the early game, Z can make a worker every 15 seconds, P every 11.111 with chrono T without MULE... 17

Guys it's just that Puma is so good, I mean look how he plans ahead by building 4 banshees from one starport at the same time. And that was so smart to stop and snipe the assimilators at Hero's main instead of making sure he could win.

i lol'd...he queued banshees cuz his macro is shit and he relys on cheesy shenanigans like hidden starport or hidden ghost rush to win lol

Great game, but it pisses me off that Puma can get away with this and still win. This is what turns me off to PvT. Puma can be not mining for minutes at a time and still win. Shouldn't protoss be the race where 1 of a unit like the banshee is deadly, rather than Terran?

Puma does this every PvT. He never wins macro games and only wins when he does a 111, 311, marine scv all in or a ghost timing.

Lol, 2 base timing
what else is new with puma


the uniformed and utterly biased rage is strong in this thread i see

Maybe you haven't seen Puma play PvT, but any time Puma wins money at any tournament its the same builds over and over and never any macro games he wins.


As an angry BW fan, PvT just isn't a good matchup in SC2 at this moment. TvZ is the only one that's really evolved into something resembling the glory of the old days IMO.

Well put. ZvT is great, but PvT still lacks something if Terran fully abuses ghosts and bio. I just don't understand why Blizzard is ruining PvT all in the name of bio being viable in TvT. It's not like we see mech very often anyway, so why not in TvT?
Yes, only lacks if terran abuses ghosts and bio, mass chargealots(75% of any late game protoss army) is totally fine and requires a lot of skill, more bias please.
I like the part where sense is considered a common, settled thing.
