I don't blame Parting. He has MKP next week in the GSL and no reason to show off any super secret strategies when you're already lost the series.

Totally forgot about that. Yea he won't pull off any fancy strategies against him =/


Yeah I forgot about this as well.

Bah, shame the free series was so bad :/

Everyone wants these epic macro games... Why in MKPs shoes would you play to your opponents strengths? Late game protoss against one of the best late game protoss vs terran players.


He can do whatever he wants, it doesn't change the fact that the fans want to see a longer game between these two.

It's just disappointing as a spectator.


Speak for yourself
If SC2 was nothing but 30min macro games it'd be boring


If you want to watch games with one base all-ins good for you but you're in the minority.

That's not what he's saying.
He is saying variety is good
and a lot more of the creative builds are cheesy


Yeah he's right but this is the matchup that I wanted to see longer games in out of everything in the entire tournament, meh.

Also have to keep in mind these guys are going to be playing a tonne of games over the next three days, they have to do these builds. Imagine how fatigued you would get played macro games every set.

I never got that logic. I always thought progamers play 20 games or more every day anyway... atleast in Korea where they train hard. So that shouldn't be any problem to play 10 games or so in a macro style. Maybe that argument fits if they are still jet lagged and that might be the case for today.

I think a lot more thought goes into it because on ladder you're playing random opponents, in a tournament setting there is a lot more pressure because you might be thinking your opponent will have something specially prepared for you.
Or you haven't prepared enough for your opponent and are scared of them.
We've seen before how far MKP and parting can push themselves before, I don't think either of them would want to spend themselves that much on their first set of matches.

I would no doubt laugh every time during the 3rd game if he or his opponent was already 2-0 up Could imagine something similar from Idra as well if he was in this.

Love this new cast/analysis/replays format. Pity there is a paywall but still was interesting to watch. Pity the free games were kinda quick.

Honestly it's disgusting that 1/1/1 is still this effective. I know it's not unbeatable but I think it's far, far stronger than any one base all in should be. What other build is comparable at this point?



-_- because 1base vs fast greedy 3base with no scout is really comparable with anything at all.


And nexus first is what? not greedy? I'm failing to see your point. Both all ins are strong vs greedy builds.
Everyone is either delusional, a nihlilst, or dead from suicide.

Playing out the third map when the score is 2:0 is total nonsense..

Although I agree with QXC's idea of using SCVs to trap Parting's units if he went up the ramp, the idea of trying to hide them sounds ridiculous. I don't think Parting would be able to miss SCVs in a corner when the natural is so small.

I asked this before but I need clarification.
I bought the gold pass-thingy at Winter Arena. They said all content would be free. My pass "runs out" sometime in 2013. Can I watch the upcoming PPV games?

Thanks.
BW hwaiting!

I think delegitamising this win is a poor thing to do. Sure, it wasn't as important as GSL or potential matches later on. But they both still really wanted to win that series - a lot of money and honour was on the line, and both of them have said they wanted to play their best in this rivalry they created.

Don't just wipe it away by calling it unimportant.

it's obvious that they are doing it for tie breakers
due to the format of 8 players round robin
