Interestingly - in set5, Hero goes for a solid game and easily holds the 2-rax pressure and proceeds to crush Puma. In set6, Hero decides that solidness is not his style and goes for a cheese proxy stargate; even when he got an early advantage by that SCV snipe.

I sometimes question the players decision making.

That's hardly the main reason for Terran losing.

You do realize that puma was one of the better BW pros to switch right?... and that Artosis said a couple years back that Puma was one of the most highly demanded practice partners in Korea.

Artosis had massive eSTRO bias though, take that with a grain of salt

Wow HerO balls of freaking steel to go for a cheese in a deciding game. After that he went for a really strong defensive style, which would work against most people who would try to attack into and end the game. I'd say he had to after falling a bit behind with his stargate getting caught. But with money going into double ups and templar, he didn't have a lot of offensive capability and Puma correctly used his bio to keep denying HerOs third. . Puma sooooooooooooo patient, just starving HerO out with 50k on the line is sick. That's just my analysis. Such a tense final game!


I think it was a smart move by Hero but I wouldn't call it balls of steel. The odds are against winning 3 straight macro games against a player like Puma... might as well go for a cheese to try to buy yourself a ticket to get to game 7.

Puma winning makes me happy, Hero losing makes me sad. These two are both great players, and I look forward to more of this epic rivalry!

Yeah, wasn't he one of Flash's TvT partners? o.o

Seriously, 2 base + gold vs 2base wasn't a reason for Hero losing? Man, lots of sad zealots in here


Sad zealots man. Let them cry it off.
All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.

Tense games. Congrats to Puma. I was really pulling for Hero and while I've seen that proxy SG work for him, I'd much rather have seen some standard play out of him. Really enjoyable mind games. And the crowd seemed to really get the nuances of the game. I enjoyed watching this quite a bit.


Did you only watch the last game of this series?

Maybe some people can actually enjoy something you don't?

Protoss is so hard to watch... every single engagement is a rollover for one side or the other... theres never any back and forth.

I'm a HerO fan.

I'm sad, but those were great games. People don't realize that just because a game is one-sided, doesn't mean that it's a bad game. It means that one player secured an advantage, played well, and snowballed it. And game 4 was so nailbiting haha.

Enjoyed watching. Peace out.

Hero was up 2-2 to 1-0, at even supply for a long time. He did not engage until puma had a nearly 20 supply upgrade and it was 3-2 to 2-2. To add to that, he frankly engaged poorly. You could tell he was getting nervous, and puma just completely outplayed him. Puma deserved the win.

THAT was beautiful. 99% of terrans woulda lost to that deathball. THANKYOU puma for showing us its possible to beat that!


wut. ><

It's the truth, only a few terrans manage chargealots backed up by hts + colossus so well, 3 different control groups to master despite the massive whine, it's far from easy, there's a reason foreign terrans don't win anything: they can't micro as well as puma/mvp/mkp/jjakji/polt.
I like the part where sense is considered a common, settled thing.
