He had a 3rd nexus in game 1 and game 3. But the big difference between the two games is that he didn't seem like he wanted to utilize his 3rd in game 3 at all.

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


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.


His forcefields were absolutely garbage too, he's just not on form today...

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, 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.


Why did he even leave his base? Puma has shown time and time again that he loves big drops and is willing to gamble with that style. Shakuras is not a bad map for Protoss to grab 3 bases and go for 200/200 with HT/Collosus/Archon.

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.


Azzur does that all the time. He blatantly calls things incorrectly to fit with his fanboy biases, while heaping on tons of smileys to make his posts even more provocative. He's an A-class troll, gotta give him that xD

That engagement was stupid from MC. There was decent number of Bio there, plus more popping out of raxxes. MC didn't target the vikings and his forcefields prevented most of his army from attacking into the main. You're just ... dumb

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.

This. Basically the drop forced MC to attack with a non maxed army. Puma had a great scenario there destroying production with the drop and taking on a less than optimal deathball on his base.

the games are so bad though... Since the NASL finals the games between them have been boring and uninspiring.

Gives a pretty bad picture of SC2 in front of fans of other esports

tvp is always terrible, unless terran does 2 rax, it will always be a mass turtle fest to 3 bases and then 2 balls collide and its over usually.


Wish it was TvZ to make a better impression of starcraft 2 to these people, im sure they are all bored out of their mind after watching such terrible games.

mc was behind on eco but he had the better army. so... obviously he tries to force a fight but puma played smart and went into a good defense position and dropped at the same time.

Puma has had miraculous timing when it comes to somehow dropping right when his opponent is in the middle of the map without actually knowing they were moving out rofl.

He scanned MC's army and saw the Stalkers from the main joining it. Instantly queued the drop.

I think Puma controls his army in TvP a lot better than MMA and pretty much everyone but Jjkaji and Polt, it's amazing how many damage he does to the colossi before the main engagements happen.
