Man, if he didn't botch those FF-s he would have this game so hard it wouldn't even be funny.


That is what DRG and MC was twitting about earlier. Protoss live and die by their FFs. I think DRG knew hes was going to get way behind after see that 3rd base and just hoped that Parting would mess up his FFs. And I think Parting was kind of overconfident that DRG wouldn't try to break in from the front since he knew DRG saw how many sentries were up there.

DRG was definitely lucky there but he also made his own luck by trying that attack there


I wish these LR threads were made up of more of these kind of posts

Man, those FFs were all I was from being convinced that Protoss CAN try to expand with a zerg and be okay for it. No way for a roach ling army to get past FFs in that situation, hatch tech zerg armies have nothing to overcome FFs.
Hey! How you doin'?

Ok. Justify that statement. Did you see that defense he put on?

I thought you couldn't hallucinate sentries...

The spell creates one or more hallucinations of a Protoss unit (Carrier, Mothership, Observer, Dark Templar and Sentry excluded)


ya I thought so too.

Lol, such a grammar nazi, I don't think I've heard a commentator use this plural correctly.


Well, the other part is he says "Templers". And you can't give me shit when people bitch about Colossus vs Colossi. This is actually aurally unpleasant. You guys just back up Artosis via circlejerk anyway.


You can be as sure of Artosis mispronouncing words as you can be of Gretorp simply using the wrong ones.

What's ridiculous is how hard and long DRG had to fight for that win when it looked like he was completely outclassing and outplaying PartinG for the last 10 minutes or so. DRG FIGHTING!!~


Yeah, when protoss misses a forcefield all of their buildings should explode instantly, no way anyone should be allowed to come back from that.

He was 70supply ahead for the last 10minutes and still has throw wave after wave after wave and even then it was Parting's decision to move on the map that actually decided the game.


What decided that game his he miss the forcefields to block the ramp and got surrounded by lings.
Really sloppy play to miss forcefields at this level of play.

Parting is choking big time, such a disappointment he is.


What? He played great besides one error in forcefield timing. The bane of many Protosses, it's a split second thing that pretty much decides the game. The fact that he stayed alive for so long is a testament to his skill.

This.

Too many put too much weight into results. Parting played amazingly that game, but fucked up big time when he didn't watch his ramp, which basically lost him the game. Still, his crisis management was great!
When your entire strategy revolves around massing sentries and defending with force fields, I consider it disappointing to see such sloppy play. I stick by my words, he's choking.

We never saw his PvZ before, it was pretty random to put him winner. DRG on the other hand has a sick ZvP record.


Parting has proved himself to be an excellent stratagist and top-level player this GSL. He's got a unique, adaptable style. I think most people expected more out of him from seeing his previous games, but I think those same people also underestimated the amount of pressure a person feels at this level of competition, this deep into a tournament. Looks like Parting is really nervous.


He did.. in PvT.
He was 0-0 in official PvZ matches.


I think it's clear he knows how to play high level PvZ based on these games alone. . . I'm just basing my opinion on the force field mistake, and some other mistakes that seem more due to nervousness than incompetence or poor stratagic thinking. It happens, the guy seems very good, but perhaps not ready for the big stage?

P.S. It seems our LIquid Hero has a similar issue. It's not all that uncommon.

MC played risky and Genius played smart and calculated, even though he was at a disadvantage sometimes he yet managed to win. Like last game Genius tricks MC and goes 4 gate, yet MC holds with just enough sentries and goes stargate tech, but still Genius manages to win with a colossus/immortal push. :D

Right,

Got to ask Protoss players this (and last game may not be a great example as I'm unsure if Parting kept his Forge alive)...

Why do Protoss players in PvZ NOT upgrade shields?

I understand why they don't bother with it in PvT due to EMP and chargelots being great late game but lategame PvZ you'll be using a bunch of units with AT LEAST equal shield to armor or in the case of Archons 300S to 10A. Fungal may ignore upgrades but it's nowhere near as potent as EMP. On top of that armor is a one time thing, once you take damage on that it's permanent and it only gives a boost to ground units, shield gives you a boost to ground units, buildings and air.

I'm not saying it would have changed that game, after the missed forcefields it was a won game for DRG but I'm trying to think of the last PvZ I watched where the Protoss player ever bothered to get Shield Upgrades (Please link me examples / tell me if I'm talking utter rubbish, as a T player I don't watch that much P play or may not understand it that well).

Surely blink stalkers with shield upgrades that are well microed are just godly?
