yeaaaaah but in a team league its good to use more solid players then snipers, unless your super far ahead. If puma gets like 3kills it'll be better to send out Supernova or Nada, someone versatile in all matchups and can carry them

omg, please make this a mined out game, I love theSTC's late game shenanigans, should be a great matchup

Yes Should IdrA have kept playing to allow the viewers a massive engagement and to get to see things blow up? Yes Could IdrA have won that game? 99.9% No
IdrA WAS behind. The point of my post was to show that he had a chance, however small (99.9% that's ridiculous, stop throwing out statistics please), not to show how he could win the game confidently. I don't like that he gave up and GG'd, that's what I'm defending.

I would like Inca, the dark Knight want to do his job (and to be fair I was quite impressed by the way he beat bomber)

Then send him in against HuK. Fin, SuperNoVa and thestc are all basically free wins against JYP though.

PuMa is far better than DeMusliM and IdrA. Not surprising.

It's top three. It's between either MC or Oz, but JYP is not slouch in vP either. It'd be interesting to see how it would stack up against Inca, especially when JYP hasnt faced a protoss of Inca's caliber.

What realistic chance?!
When you have only just built your fourth and haven't even begun mining from it yet, are about to lose all your tech in the main while your army in the centre on the map can't attack his army while he is also about to start saccing workers and is already producing ghosts what can you do as zerg?
Even if somehow magically the drop from illusion got cleared up without major loss he could have instantly remaxed, took the centre tower and cut IdrA off from his fourth, killed it and starved him.

i never lost a game tvt where i go the reaper exp into shield mass rine vs banshee exp.
I never won a game other way round and i did both builds alot.
I know people dont want to see this and i dont say puma is not the better player but this game was lost/won before the loading screen.
Its just a cointhrow and caster and fans try to look away and talk about a awesome game...

If the drop was large enough to ruin all his production before he could get there then he would have had a solid chance to defeat the main army due to loss of the units. If it wasn't he would get back in times (Ultras/Lings are fast?) to save most of the structures. He had a small chance. Don't deny it.

While I agree that his chance was close to zero, did anyone else watch MVP vs Leenock in GSL November, game 1 and 2? Its an amazing display of skill to see people stick around and survive as long as they possibly can, and sometimes make a comeback

MC has positive records vs both Inca and inori. In fact he is like 5-2 vs inori. Inori beat him just that one time, MC is a better pvper overall. MC and Oz have the best pvp.

Oh, I forgot about those matches - so yeah JYP is pretty good. Inori though is really overrated - he's 2 - 8 against Korean Protosses.

Oz,InCa and Inori definitely better than MC at PvP.

That turtle style he was doing with mass tanks + ghosts and idra having ultra's trust me it gets raped really really really really really badly. Actually I think I saw a dimaga vs empireHappy with Happy going for tank/ghost, and dimaga still going ultra and win (after a 1h++ game :D). But obviously you want to have zerling/baneling (maybe more than ultras) with it, and engage properly the ennemy army. Not sure Irda is capable of that :D. I imagine if Dimaga won that he also wasn't down bases for the whole game am I correct in that? IdrA had already secured a 4th by the time he GG'd. Broodlords are THE end game unit vs Terran. That's why you have Queen+Infestor support which he already had, it would have been a proper switch. You are ignorant and clueless. You need to stop talking now. I am NOT defending IdrA. lol... Sigh again you showed me you have no idea how tvz works in the late game when the terran is actually good. ^^ Troll more? If you want to show me how it's done then go ahead. Problem is you aren't backing up anything and have been wrong so far in what you say (he had a 4th). People who keep arguing because their ego is hurt are annoying. IdrA had ONLY just got his fourth up, illusion was already getting extra OC's to start killing workers for supply and was getting ghosts. Along with his main force in the centre able to do nothing about the tanks and planetary fortress he was about to be reset to hatch tech by the triple drop just arriving in his main. EVEN if he had miraculously defended it and SOMEHOW got a greater spire out there would have been enough ghosts to EMP every queen and infestor with enough energy left to then snipe every brood lord out of the sky. Could IdrA have kept playing? Yes Should IdrA have kept playing for the team to tire illusion out a bit mentally? Yes Should IdrA have kept playing to allow the viewers a massive engagement and to get to see things blow up? Yes Could IdrA have won that game? 99.9% No IdrA WAS behind. The point of my post was to show that he had a chance, however small (99.9% that's ridiculous, stop throwing out statistics please), not to show how he could win the game confidently. I don't like that he gave up and GG'd, that's what I'm defending. What realistic chance?! When you have only just built your fourth and haven't even begun mining from it yet, are about to lose all your tech in the main while your army in the centre on the map can't attack his army while he is also about to start saccing workers and is already producing ghosts what can you do as zerg? Even if somehow magically the drop from illusion got cleared up without major loss he could have instantly remaxed, took the centre tower and cut IdrA off from his fourth, killed it and starved him. If the drop was large enough to ruin all his production before he could get there then he would have had a solid chance to defeat the main army due to loss of the units. If it wasn't he would get back in times (Ultras/Lings are fast?) to save most of the structures. He had a small chance. Don't deny it.
IdrA attempted to attack the centre, hence why he sent in the Infestors and Ultras but with tanks and a PF with SCVs ready to repair he would never have got through. He could have killed the PF but the losses would have been huge.
I'm not denying that IdrA had a 0% chance, it's just his chance of winning was mainly based on illusion dropping dead or one of their connections dying and then him winning a regame.

While I agree that his chance was close to zero, did anyone else watch MVP vs Leenock in GSL November, game 1 and 2? Its an amazing display of skill to see people stick around and survive as long as they possibly can, and sometimes make a comeback
Oh indeed that was fantastic, the three marine push at the 32 minute mark and all. I'm not saying what IdrA did was right, he definitely should have stayed in the game, i'm just saying it was a lost game.

EG has no chance with ForGG, Supernova, Nada and Inca for JP why use inca against JYP? JYP has pretty good vP, whereas any terran on oGs will rape his face. While I agree, Inca's PvP is one of the best in the world. It's top three. It's between either MC or Oz, but JYP is not slouch in vP either. It'd be interesting to see how it would stack up against Inca, especially when JYP hasnt faced a protoss of Inca's caliber. JYP vs MC was very close match in HomeStoryCup. its between Oz,InCa and Inori. MC has positive records vs both Inca and inori. In fact he is like 5-2 vs inori. Inori beat him just that one time, MC is a better pvper overall. MC and Oz have the best pvp. PvP is MC's worst match up... Oz,InCa and Inori definitely better than MC at PvP.
How is inori better at PvP than MC? He is 2-8 in PvP and lost to MC like 3 times. MC also has basically the same win % as Inca but has more games than Inca and beat him. Inori is so overrated at that matchup it's not even funny.
