They didn't once mention that parting had like 20 more workers than stc during the constant battles that were happening for the last 25% of the game, which is why he could outproduce stc. Bleh.
You read that totally wrongly. The most important part was to get those HT with energy while the Stc no longer produced ghost, then it's just an easy fight with some aoe while the terran hasn't the proper counter. Macro didn't mattered that much.
Also you don't really want 80 workers as Terran late game. To even have a chance vs lategame toss you need +20 army supply. StC macro slipped a bit but he was trying to micro across the map. Sigh zlots. I guess this is what Zerg feels like when they win a fight vs T but then mules land and they have to face another 50 marines. Can't wait till HotS is all I can say at least...
it's ok at their lvl. Terrans will improve and I think that lot/archon can be dealt with extremely well but that requires an insane multitasking. MKP does it better, we'll probably see.
Seemed like the STC had a good window to just concentrate his forces and just cut parting down. Don't understand the hesitation. I guess it was reasonable to expect templar to show up.

Until you have a given mass of MMM, Chargelots trade WAY too cost-efficiently. theStC didn't have that mass for most of the game. While they were talking about how good theStC's position was, I was thinking about how incredibly tenuous it was...
Are you kidding? You don't understand this game. theSTC was way ahead but botched the game but retreating with his whole army to defend against Partings relatively small counter attack. Because of this he let Partings 4th survive and never even killed the 3rd, letting Parting back in the game. His engagements also got worse as the game went longer.
stc was ahead? wtf? dont you know how volatile this match up is? a couple of good storms, plus stc is no MMA or MKP, and its over for stc his drop did it for him, (before the drop, i would say he was a ahead) and lost him the game as he lost tooo much units; wouldve done better he just attacked with his main forces combined and after that he was even or behind parting
