EPTbut how did he get that much soul in the first place? im guessing his secret is some arcane dark magic blood ritual used to harvest souls of innocents during the harvest moon.

I haven't got a GSL Ticket (shame on me!) and I follow the build order but am making a mistake somewhere, and I don't know where it is. I've had delayed warp gate (finishes at 8:30 instead of 8:00) and less units than normal. If this isn't possible, thanks anyway. This build is the Protoss equivilent of salvation! :D I actually have the same problem with WG research. Finishes later than it should, and it seems that it's never chronoboosted, so it makes me wonder. | ||

Nexus forge pylon (probe????) gate cannon I feel like I move out late because the extra probe delays my gate so much that my robo + WG tech are delaying me more than the less minerals from cutting the probe... Variations  I also noticed that PartinG uses stargate gas timings, which I find odd. Most people on ladder go 6:00 3rd and 6:25 4th, while at BWC parting went like 5:45 3rd and 7:00 4th. I wonder if its better or just mind games... | ||

Nexus First: 9 Pylon (Chronoboost Nexus on 10, 12, and 15 supply) 17 Nexus 17 Forge 17 Pylon 17 Gateway 18 Cannon (Chronoboost Nexus after placing Cannon and resuming Probe production) 19 and 20 Gas(es) 21 Cyber Core Forge First, Heavy Econ: 9 Pylon (Chronoboost Nexus on 10, 12, and 15 supply) 14-17 Forge 17 Nexus 18 Pylon 18 Cannon 18 Gateway 19 Both main Assimilators (Chronoboost Nexi continuously once Gateway is placed and 2nd Pylon is finished) @100% Gateway Cyber Core Forge First, Fast Gateway: 9 Pylon (Chronoboost Nexus on 10, 12, and 15 supply) 14-17 Forge 17 Nexus 17 Gateway 17 Pylon 18 Cannon (Chronoboost Nexus after placing Cannon and resuming Probe production) 19 and 20 Gas(es) 21 Cyber Core I think if you nex first and then go pylon/probes before gateway/cannon to not cut probes at all, your cannon doesn't finish in time on a lot of maps and the lings run straight across off 14-15 pool. For example on Cloud Kingdom, off the Nexus first variation i posted, you actually have to keep a probe on hold position and be ready to wall off with an extra pylon for a few instants (again, if you see the lings running straight across the map), so it would be trickier if you delayed the cannon for a pylon and/or more probes. On annoying maps to wall like Antiga/Entombed it's even worse since you can't fully wall off. Very few people these days do the forge first fast gateway variation because you cut a TON of probes with it. I remember only like 1-2 pro games in the last 10-15 ish or so i've watched lately when the p does it. | ||

So 17 pylon, probe, 18 gateway, 18 cannon, go into standard Chronoing probes and building gases etc~ | ||

I've been doing MC's 7 gate 1 gas all-in on that map because I'm unsure if that map is too large or not for this build. Thanks! If Parting has done it on crossposi on Entombed, I'm pretty sure Condemned isn't too big.  + the build is unbeatable + it wont matter a lot anyways since you have warpins. | ||

Zerg would have to invest in burrow/baneling tech before confirming that the all-in is coming, and getting this tech early against a robo-expand build would get Zerg behind. This is so because the all-in already incorporates an obs after starting to move out, so the baneling trap would have to be just outside the Protoss base, any other time and it wouldn't ever work. Even if Zerg decides to blind counter the build or somehow can confirm it early enough for this to work, I can only assume that there would be other far better options than relying on a lucky burrowed baneling hit. | ||

No the way the timings work in the matchup burrow wouldn't in time to get banelings in a decent position, plus burrowed banes are kind of a coin flip. | ||

You still lose. Watch any of PartinG's games and he always has an obs. | ||

The interview in question. Haven't had time to watch it and figure out what he says the answer, I'll edit this / post again when I get around to doing so. | ||
