didn't Parting just take second at WCS asia?

while also falling out of ro32 gsl, i think that's flippy floppy (ie inconsistent)

maybe vampire is the next protoss bonjwa

anyway i don't like labeling every player who loses early in gsl sometimes " inconsistent " because that would make every player except mvp inconsistent

I'd say 4 straight seasons of Code S (including a quarterfinals and semifinals), quarterfinals at OSL, 3rd at WCG, 3rd at WCS Korea, and 2nd at WCS Asia is pretty consistent. And regardless of overall performances, Parting v T (which is what is mostly relevant here) is consistently amazing.

marineking has pretty similar, if not better performances to that this year and many would say he's inconsistent too, haha

who calls mkp inconsistent? he's one of the most consistent players out there, always in code s, won multiple foreign tournaments this year and placed top 3 in multiple others, also in the top 5 of earnings this year.

there's probably a few more around the forums, but there are quite a few who'd consider mkp inconsistent (even this disparity between his early 2012 gsl and non-gsl performance is a bit puzzling)

Consistency is a pretty subjective topic I guess (unless the player is Bomber)

So MKP is consistent but not consistent consistently? Which would make him inconsistently consistent.

even as a byun fan, ur post makes absolutely shit sense.

yeah but he credited byun as the best, and even you and me know how good mvp and taeja is, he even said that skillwise byun is unmatched by other terrans.

I think that Keen and Trap will get out of the group.
Keen plays asd and Shine in his first two matches. TvZ is his best match-up and asd is probably the weakest player in the group, so I think that Keen will get on a role and qualify.
Trap beat a Code S Ro.16 level player in Supernova and lost to a Ro.32 level player in GuMiho, so I think he'll be able to beat two of the three Terrans in the group. That just leaves Shine (who lost last round to a Trap-equivalent Protoss in Terminator) and Parting (all the kespa players seem really good at PvP).

Is this a joke? TaeJa, MVP..? Obviously he has a lot better decision making, strategies, game knowledge and mechanics than the 4-time GSL champion and.. well TaeJa.

It feels like the furthest Byun has got in any tournament is losing to Seed in the Season 3 GSL semis. I dunno but I'd pick Parting over Byun any day.

Yes, his best result is losing 2-3 to the eventual GSL champion just a season ago. What has parting done lately again?
