Parting didn't play anywhere near his best, nerves got to him. His still very young though will def do better in the future.

It's funny seeing everyone say that a PvT finals would be preferable to PvP when the last two PvTs we've seen MVP play have been terrible series, nothing but catharsis for Terrans feeling victimized by a perceived imbalance. PvT with MVP or PvP in general, finals are looking to be pretty lackluster.

This is the reason why Terran have won so many tournaments and the double edge sword that cause so many weak terran players to cry imba. If you can't power out an competitive edge early enough, then get out of terran, cause it's the race of fast beats. And MVP, he's the meanest, fastest terran out there.


This is the curse of Blizzard forgetting how to design a positional game.

Hm, surprising to see PartinG lose to such a normal timing, nerves perhaps?


I think parting played exactly as he intended to, and mvp's only way to break him at that point in time was by dropping everything in the main safely before charge finished.

If partings stalkers were a bit closer to the medivacs then one wouldve been sniped, and he wouldve held decisively.

Lots of luck, balls, and skill for MVP


that was a totally standard 4 medivac drop timing parting would have seen a gazillion times


Yes it is completely standard. Youre right, nerves were probably why his stalkers were just outta the sweet-spot

Either way he played great up to that point, and lost due to a very small margin of imperfect positioning micro

Imo we saw PartinG losing matches rather than MVP winning them. PartinG just made too many mistakes and wrong calls.

Best part is, even with MVP in the finals, even if MVP wins the GSL, terran players will still complain about protoss


Probably because one datapoint doesn't prove anything.


Yet they will argue that P is imba based on one season of protoss doing well.


No, arguing that protoss is doing way too well for the extremely low skill level required to achieve extremely much. As long as the game is autoloss at late game, there'll be whine.

Man your balance whine is ridiculous. No skill? Takes every bit as much skill as what Terran does. Give it a rest.

don't worry. only stupid people who say "autoloss" like that put no time into sc2 and expect to win games..

How is "game 1" 5 stars? Terrible moveout and mistakes equals great game? Only game that shows the skill and game sense was actually 4th. Other games were just bad.

It seems to me like people just straight up dont like protoss around here, either they hit early and are cheesy/2 base players using a style that takes no skill; Or they play a macro game, but instead its just considered a no skill autoloss for the opponent automatically. What great choices as a protoss player x.x

OK. I'm one of the biggest TvP whiners. I am hereby going to STFU about balance and just practice. Might not like how the match up is played, but it's definitely winnable. >.>'


Good to hear man. GG GL.

HerO is going to do it! I believe :D

Squirtle will be a hard opponent for sure though... But my heart hopes HerO will just roll him 3-0 hahaha
