Not saying Puma is bad obviously but the games were pretty poor and it was a waste of a till-then 14-0 map score

Wish he could have played TvZ till the finals..



Puma did that to Mc in the past and he just did it to MMA. Skillwise I believe Puma is behind the two, but his mind game is just too much sometimes.

If you have only 1 really good matchup, it's fine for you to be punished by that. He should just count himself lucky no other really good Protoss players turned up apart from JYP/MC, and that JYP is so awful at PvT.


agreed, would have liked to see other Terran talent like Polt and aLive or MKP there.

aLive Superstrong vs T and Z

Polt Superstrong bascally vs all Races


Final might have looked different, but MC sure stands a chance against any Terran


Image if DRG was here, not sure if Puma could still be in the final or not....

Is there a Korean Terran who's not weak in at least one matchup?

MKP - TvT
MMA - TvP
MVP - TvP
Puma - TvZ
Ryung - TvP
Ganzi - TvP
Bomber - TvZ
Polt - TvZ

Not to mention they can all beat each in TvT on the right day anyway.

Polt's TvZ is his weak matchup?

wow...



It is kind of like you are saying zvt is Nestea' weak mu and pvp is Mc's.

A real top Korean would not lose to Stephano 0-3.

So if PuMa shuts MC out, he's not good enough to be a Top Korean?

Edit: Holy fuck kid, did you just quadruple post?



He shut Mc down due to game imbalance and maps in the past. And yes, if he can do it this time, I will agree that he is a top terran.
Only noobs would agree he is a top terran by watching him 111 toss at all time. And losing to foreign zergs time after time.

I'm a terran player, and puma is pretty much the most boring player out there imo. MC isn't much better though. Both are known for doing all ins on a regular basis and it's just not fun to watch :/

MKP is not weak in TvT anymore.
MMA is not weak in TvP anymore.
Mvp was never weak in TvP.
Polt is not weak in TvZ anymore.


Evidence for MMA not being weak TvP?

MKP won two best of 3s in the Group Stages and suddenly he's got great TvT again?

Polt's almost never beaten a good ZvT player in Korean. I don't care if he beat Stephano, Stephano's ZvT is nothing special.

MVP's TvP landed him in Code A once upon a time, clearly his TvP is not the best and if you watch him play I think the only good, super solid TvP series I've seen from him was vs Huk and even then he 1-1-1'd him twice.


You just talking out you ass as allways. Polt recent wins over a 3month period include Losira Zenio, Nestea and Stephano so yea he is bad in TvZ

His stats and matchups are public you know not hard to go read them




Losira and Zenio are notoriously bad ZvT. Losira is so bad at ZvT he's dropped entirely off the radar because of it.

Stephano is bad ZvT at Code S level.

Nestea was a best of one. Anyone can win a best of one. It's not evidence of anything.
Zenio notoriously bad at ZvT? Even Mvp said he had one of the best ZvT in the world. He may not be playing that greatly lately, but still, he's not known for being terrible at that matchup. Just pointing that out, i somewhat agree with everything else you said there.

huh? They are way more interesting than players who only ever aim for macro games or only stick to one same build in a BO5. Variety is spice of life.

Watching Kas go triple cc every single damn game is called boring.

Feast can still salvage a respectable showing for foreigners if he beats MMA in the bronze match. I'm sure he wouldn't mind the extra $4,800 in prize money either.

And go MC! Prove you're still the President Toss.

PuMa > MC
MMA > Feast

This needs to be added to the TL calender (and streams added correctly).

lmao did you even watch the Puma vs MC games? NASL season 1, Puma played macro games every game and beat MC. In IEM Cologne he 1/1/1'd twice and beat MC in a straight up match as well.

I watched them all and you could not deny that maps play a huge factor there for Mc's loss.
