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.


this 100 times. MMMGV micro versus HT/Colossus Protoss ball is very difficult to pull off.
All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.

Puma wins 1 game where he doesn't play off 2 bases. Can't wait til brood war pros switch over and make sure he doesn't make it out of qualifiers.

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.


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


Flash mentions like everyone he practices with and I never heard him mention Puma before.

Meh HerO shouldn't have proxied. Still think he's better overall if he plays standard.


He was probably thinking if that worked he could have played the last game a standard one. And bel'shir is not exactly a happy place for a protoss player to fight a terran. Puma knew that there was the chance of an early aggression to try and move to the last game and scouted well.

Wanted so bad HerO to win, oh well... Blizzard Cup and Next GSL still comming for HerO to take it, if he faces Puma there he will... oh wait, puma code B, right? =D haha, Sorry had to do it.

Grats to Puma! Good luck next time HerO, we love you!

Although I'm disappointed Hero lost, I think that was a really good finals, and I think puma deserved to win. Watching all the little stuff they were doing while jockeying for position impressed me by the skill level of both the players- could really tell both of them were thinking many moves in advance.

Blegh I'm sad that HerO lost, but NASL needs to learn how to keep the hype up after the last game is played. No music, no nothing, now everything is completely deflated. Dreamhack did it right, even if they had shitty dubstep playing at least it maintained some energy. Please learn from this NASL!

Wait, what's your point?



The difference in money is very little regardless. Both are majors. Well, I'm still not happy with how NASL handled the Korean situation and I definitely think more Koreans would have been in the top 16. Still a win is a win.

What? I hope you are joking.

GSL SPOILERS BUT SERIOUSLY THIS IS VEEEERY OLD NEWS(going to spoiler anyway)
+ Show Spoiler +
MVP and Nestea has 3 (THREE) GSL titles, and MC has two. Pretty sure Nestea had 2 back-to-back GSL wins (since Super Tournament wasn't really a standard tourney and a lot of players didn't seem to take it all to seriously, but I guess that can be argued either way). MVP won the World Championships and a regular GSL season in a row.

As far as foreign tournaments go, you might be right, though.

Also, great work as usual, Seeker! Was nice being able to catch up to the action after going to the bathroom to throw up.

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

That's what feels broken game-design wise. Protoss is just so fragile...you either roll or get rolled. Not very fun because a single mistake decides the game either way It's "balanced" because it can (and does) go either way but it just doesn't seem like good game design.


lol this is not race specific. Zerg says the same thing about the zerg army. The fact is SC2 is just a very fast game where a few micro decisions make or break everything as your deathballs collide.

So yes, I agree, doesn't feel like good game design.

Weird that the winner of this isn't invited to the Blizzard Cup. I think the whole "no Koreans (on Korean teams) allowed" in the NASL must be the reason.

Yeah the indecision on the 3rd base really killed Hero in the last game. He had upgrade advantage and could of atleast contested it, but it seemed like he couldn't bring himself to lay the game on the line like that. Either way, I'm happy that Puma won, but I am sad that Hero lost. Both are great players, hopefully we get to see another Bo7 series between them soon.
