That's what I've been saying. PARTING WON WITH MACRO. MACRO RULES.

I'm pretty sure Jjakji was pretty frustrated before taking this fight and just wanted to end it quick. Parting would've never attack him before having a giant bank and at that point Terran can't win anymore.

That requires a bit more analysis than the standard "Terran loses a TvP after the 15-minute mark: post 'lol late-game TvP' comment".

People complain too much. You just got probably the best TvP series in GSL history (maybe SC2 history with Puma/MC and MC/Thorzain), a best-of-seven basically (Parting 4 - 1 Jjakji) and people are complaining about balance.

Stop interrupting the whining hyperbole with your facts.

Great day. Wolf has been hyping Parting for a while now.
Don't cry my fellow terrans. We always win in the end

1A wins again against insane kiting micro. gratz. It definitely had nothing to do with storms and positioning. Nope. You're right. Parting just 1A and took his hands off the keyboard. go play toss and terran! you will see that you have to micro terran much more than protoss. you cant micro zealots, just send them in with 1a. and then the terran player has to micro all day to get rid of them or he will lose. right click and s more difficult than setting up guardian shield + FF + pulling zealots back as they are being kiting too far, storming, etc?
Yes it is more "difficult" because it takes forever until you can do something else, you cast guardian shield done, you a move zealots done, you storm done... now do something else. terran? kite, kite, kite, kite, kite, kite... cant macro... kite, kite. kite. kite....

I think what most toss should learn most from this series is not to be so frugal with Psi Storm, Parting was throwing them all over the place since he might as well if he's expecting his HTs to get EMP'd eventually.

now thats some awesome pvt to see the last few games
sad to see jjakji lose but im happy he lost in this fashion rather to some bullshit

I think he could afford to do that only because he got a nice economy advantage. Not really a universal rule like you make it out ot be

No, terrans were already whining and killing kittens because they thought that 2 base marine/tank has to beat 4base bl/infestor, then they figured out that they can actually expand as much as the zerg does and that they have that awesome unit called ghost.

That engagement looked plain wrong. The HT only stormed the ghosts and then died, the Archons where EMPed, the Colossus where destroyed fast, and yet despite all this a mass of chargelots cleaned it all up. I was scratching my head trying to figure out how or if Jjakji made any mistake in that engagement.
Also, to the ignorant out there saying this is going to kill mass bio, and lead to a multi-tasking style, no it won't. Toss has learned how to deal with it by placing cannons and HT at expansions, if you split your bio ball you'll just have it die piece by piece instead of all of it at once. There is also no other style apart from Bio that works against P because mech TvP is broken.
Looking forward to see how Terrans bounce back from this, Protoss is now shaping up to be a way way bigger threat than Zerg or other Terrans.

Parting has helped me regain a bit of faith in TvP.

Game 1 was much much better IMO.
Game 2 was Jjakji not getting enough upgrades and a-moving 8 ghosts into three storms 
|
Well its obvious that the best korean players choose protoss..terrans have to step up there game ...
