C'mon that engagement was stupid. Full army against nothing plus 5 vikings and the toss army got melted like butter.

Even the commentators said that was "strange", because it made no sense

It looks like Puma still has MC's number, though I don't want to get ahead of myself, maybe MC can make a comeback and then seal the deal. To bad the games have been kind of, anti-climatic, I wish the players would somehow silently agree to play along drawn out macro game, to relive the glory of NASL S1.

Can't see MC win another GSL unless he cleans up his PvT imo.
He's lucky this tournament was almost PvP only for him.

MC allins again and loses

I don't think taht was intended to be an all-in, he took a third lol

When he got caught so far out with the drop in his base he really had no other choice. He could have retreated but he would have taken so much damage, maybe even get his third denied by a force from behind.

MC just getting too ahead of himself.

Puma playing safe and letting MC trip over himself.

Obviously, it wasn't an allin in the strict sense of the term allin. However, I like to use the term to produce a reaction from people. I am more referring to MC's gimmicky attack-and-hope over-aggression.


I think that is called being a douche.

Nice!! Gogo PuMa! Got those vikings out just in time so his bio didn't have to fight in range of the colossus.

It really seemed like Puma baited MC into that, by showing his tiny army in the middle of the map, MC saw that and decided to get aggressive right as 3 medivacs dropped in his base. At that point the strong defensive position favoured Puma and MC got pwned.

Suprisingly quick end, MC just over confident after seeing only a part of Puma's army.

Yeah he's always seemed extremely weak once the game gets past those two bases. He just crumbles apart in the hands of good terrans. Maybe it's just me tho.


It's so weird, because lategame PvT is so good right now that just defending and getting to 200/200 is so hard to stop for Terran.

Why is MC always trying to end the game prematurely when he is in an obviously advantageous position?


He is in a shitty position either way. Go back and lose a ton in his base, then when he´s back T gets in medivacs and trollololols his way home. Go for it and hope for the best. Puma just played smarter, in that he forced his game on MC, and won the game on his terms.

really boring finals so far tbh..


they would've been better if mc relied more on getting faster 3rd ;\


PuMa is trying to mind-game him with fear, so MC will never play greedy enough to go for a fast 3rd, while PuMa is able to play greedy and get his economy up - forcing MC to attack into him (or fall behind in economy).

MC needs more observers against such aggressive drop play, you just need to know where the drops are.

He attacked up a ramp, ran zealots into barracks/forcefields and lost his collossi because he had no stalkers to kill the vikings, there was nothing strange about this engagement, just the protoss messing up.

Stop posting shit.

I dont understand MC's strategy, he should have just camped on 3 or 4 base then move out with the unstoppable death ball. He was ahead on upgrades too. And why attack just when you take the third base?

My protoss practice partner would have played better in that situation. He just turtles and adds cannons in the main and maxes out. Hard to beat a protoss that just turtles.
