imo losing the first 2 banshee was enough damage to make the 1-1-1 fail

Tell that to MVP :D

All we can really take from this game is that MMA is still trash against Protoss compared to his vZ and vT


The only 1/1/1 I can remember that Mvp used recently was in the semi-finals against parting. And while it well executed Parting defended it horribly, Ohana is also way better than Dual Sight for it with the one choke leading into the nat and no real ability to flank without killing the rocks.

Same I can't wait for GSTL, first time buying the pass for the team league for me. Whirlwind looks like an awesome map and hopefully we get epic games on it.

AcE is pretty underrated imo. He does well in many tournaments but is just overlooked because so many other Koreans also do well. He's been a consistent GSL player, just not at a Code S level, since the early seasons. Maybe he's put a lot of work into his play


What he showed this season was pathetic. He shouldn't even have won the series against JookTo, but somehow the zerg managed to screw up even more.

This abusive play on timings is so goooooood RTS.

So looking fwd to some more RTS being released to get my hands on. Dont get me wrong Sc2 is ok, but it is no-where near what I would call a complete RTS.

I also think, that MMA and MKP might have their Code S spot secured, due to their foreign tournament results lately (MKP getting 1st,1st and 2nd @ MLG, MMA with Iron Squid Stars Wars Qualifier win), not speaking, that they are both very popular players. But I wouldn't be surprised at all to see the seeds go to thorzain and stephano. So only time will tell...

His vT isn't that great anymore either. It can be good, but he also has terrible games vT as well.

IMO, the most important part in that game was that MVP managed to gain control of the watchtower, which gives a way stronger position than anywhere on Dual Sight for a 1/1/1.

2 unknown players named parting and squirtle are most likely helping him as well.

It still wins almost every time but it's not used very often.

Yeah as ace just showed you need top notch control and multitask to hold 1-1-1.


Not really, Ace is leagues below MMA in multitasking and micro and he still holds. Do you really think Koreans wouldnt use 1-1-1 more often if it would still work most of the times in tournaments and practice? It can still sometimes work because it has become so rare but as a Protoss you really have to screw up or be really unlucky to NOT hold a 1-1-1.

MMA played it out pretty badly. Just look at Hearts 1-1-1's to see how dangerous it can be.


Well you have to admit that Killer defended Heart's 1-1-1 poorly compared to Ace ...

Heart has used it a ton in the last few MLGs he played as well against better players than Ace.

U&D are not even finished yet. Let's wait for the remaining games to see MMA's performance.

Is it wrong that, as a Protoss player myself, I do enjoy seeing Protoss players who cannot defeat a 1/1/1 at this point lose miserably to it?


Also, when Terran players go for a 1/1/1, pull ahead and fail miserably, I enjoy watching them lose.

Players playing bad losing? I am alright with that. Well, really want MMA to advance, but having to earn it is fine.

Actually, I'm with you on both counts... I'm especially shocked, when it is THE MOST PREDICTABLE THING. When was the last time we didn't see a 1/1/1 in TvP on Dual Sight? What could the meaning of a bunker on top of the main base ramp mean?

Newsflash Killer: It means DO NOT take a 3rd.

Has the GSL ever seeded someone into Code S while they were still in Code A? I cannot think of that happening, though without actually checking it I cannot be 100% sure.

Seems very unlikely indeed however.

Yeah just force toss to make third nexus, cancel then put up 3gates late and be floating600 minerals when push comes, not target fire tanks with immortals, trade stalkers for a few scvs and it can be incredibly deadly.

Even though SC2 is flawed in a lot of ways, it's a masterpiece of competitive play compared to every single other RTS that has been released in the last 5 years.
