this is pretty stupid, that wasnt even close on crossfire

serious hat on here, what is terran supposed to do? how many bunkers u need rofl

Perhaps a more tank-marine based army in the early game? Highground tanks take care of stalkers and sentries, while marines stomp immortals. Just a thought.

Like 9 bunkers?Might work, then again the protoss might get a third and double forge in response and you lose anyways.

Is anyone counting how many PvT games puzzle won with 6-7 gate/immortal? I think its hovering around 7 out of 10.

LOL reminds me of 1/1/1 right after NASL.

Puzzle looks almost too cool to be a nerd baller. To me he looks like Flash Thompson, high school nemesis of Peter Parker.

U thought that guy looked cool?

Are ghosts out in time if you're doing the 2base marine/ghost push? Maybe that is the only viable counter, aside from 1 base allins and Protoss messing up their FFs ..

You still cant Emp everything if the toss spreads... I think mass marines and mass bunkers is the only viable way of a 1rax expo.

Yep, too many "he is proving to be the best player in the world" comments after every single game he wins

I thought I was a hipster for feeling like this. Now that I can see there are a lot of level headed people who share my feelings, I think it's finally OK for me to start rooting for MMA every once in a while.

lol... if MVP is much better then why does he always lose to MMA. Artosis confuses me sometimes

So by your logic polt is better than MMA. but anyone with common sense knows thats not the case.

Umm MMA has played MVP in bo7, bo5, and another bo5 in Geforce ProAM defeating him CONVINCINGLY every time, with the only time that MVP won was at MLG where he was already ahead in extended series anyway.... Also these were all pretty much during MVP's prime. If ur saying MVP was better then he should at least have won some of those sets right? Or at least make them close( which they were all one sided ). The Polt MMA games are pretty much one series of build order, where MMA wasn't even in his prime form and Polt has just sunk into the abyss.

MVP has beat millions of other players who has beaten MMA. Just because MMA beats MVP in head to head confrontations dosen't make MVP the weaker overall player. Achievements don't lie. MVP status as best player should not be debated until he shows poor form for a few months and someone else takes over.

Hmm so MVP not winning GSL since August and MMA winning the past 2 GSLs means nothing to u I guess...

I wouldn't count Blizzard cup as GSL and if I remember right the reason why MMA/Polt were at Blizzard Cup because MVP won too much too. MMA is great player but he doesn't achieve as much as MVP.

Blizzard cup was an invite only tournament featuring two players that clearly didn't deserve to be there (Stephano and Naniwa). It doesn't count.

Are you fucking trolling? Blizzard Cup was like the hardest thing ever! All the champions fighting each other. How did Stephano and Naniwa not deserve to be there? Naniwa earned his spot at Blizzcon beating the likes of Nestea and Mvp... and Stephano, well he's the best foreigner and is clearly Code S material, and he won so much things.... You are a freakin douche.

LOL when did naniwa beat mvp and nestea at blizzcon that was the mlg providence invitational thing so get your facts straight.

lol yeah my bad, I got confused, but still the point remains the same. Both players fully deserved their spot, and this tournament was everything but easy

If you get a ghost it stops that hard. Stops everything hard really.

Not fast 2base colossus. I don't know if you can scout a protoss it in time and react with a ghost academy or factory+starport depending on what you see though.

Would having additional SCVs ready to repair have helped against that bunker bust?

I meant it looked like he only had 4-5 there.

not really, the dps of immortals is way to high to get counterrepaired.
Maybe it would have helped to pull a lot scvs to buffer the zealots though.
