i reckon he might have held it as well, but it might not have been pretty. He was going to loose a ton of scv's for sure at the very least.

I get annoyed by such stuff -_- Luck... yep. That's totally how timing attacks work.
Parting didn't predict the timing of siege mode or MKP sending out the drop. There was no observer so Parting just did the gateway timing relatively blind. Yes, there's a strong timing in it, but it was greatly amplified by luck about how his opponents timings worked out.

HAHAHAA WHAT THE HELL...ION

My favorite part is that protoss gets to reinforce to the terran's front faster than terran, even though his production facilities are across the map. Makes for some... uh, interesting? games.

Oh yeah, cause he knew when siege mode was finishing. Or that Foxer had tanks at all? Or that he had a medivac moving at that time?
Please, stop being ridiculous.

No, not really. Everyone knows Terran has the strongest early game. Protoss having a couple gateway timings doesn't really mean anything. What early game timings do terrans have that aren't one base that can work? Mass marine 5 rax?
Otherwise Terran has to wait til Medivacs, which is more a mid game timing.

So Parting is now on the side of the bracket with Naniwa and MVP. A PvP against Squirtle/MC/Oz could be really difficult, but if he can somehow roll Maru into MVP, he could breeze to the finals.

Parting will likely have to survive at least one PvP on his way to the final. Looking at Parting's PvP record I also would not be shocked to see him get knocked out by MC, Oz or Naniwa.

MKP was actually got tricked by parting, he thought parting was gonna set up a 3rd (which parting almost always did), that medivac with stim rines was gonna harass the 3rd. Great mind game + timing imo, i dunno why people say its a bad game.

No, not really. Everyone knows Terran has the strongest early game. Protoss having a couple gateway timings doesn't really mean anything. Depends entirely on the opening. If Terran opens gasless FE, it's only natural they'll have good eco, but has to be on the defensive for a little while. It's also quite hard for T to scout at that point, so better play safe, until stim and medivacs, eh?
If Terrans decides to go 2rax, it's a different story, but that also depends on the map..

I'm happy for Pating going through, he's definitely a fantastic player and want to see more of his PvT.
Seeing MKP so devastated though is sad TBH it wasn't like he played bad that last match, it was just unfortunate he left with those marines when he did.
Think he just needs to calm down, take the next match and move through.
