Can't wait for Global play to start so we(foreigners) can go back to Bronze where we belong and stop pretending that we understand the game enough to call imbalances

MVP is pretty conservative with his OC- he could totally get away with building it at his nat.

Yeah, this was a big problem.


He had 8 vikings. Protoss had 2 colo. A mismatch of 4 food?


you sure it was 8? looked like more at the time.

parting so lucky


Just like MVP was lucky the last two games? Don't bring luck in; they're skilled players but both make mistakes, which is one the other player will capitalize.


Parting got lucky, that MVP's army was completely out of position and spread out while he tried to get into position.
Also MVP's micro was bad.
Not to take anything away from Parting, who played well that game and had really good storms.

That's not luck, that's poor play by MVP.

Just one of the pitfalls of using bio TvP. Army needs constant babysitting or it could be devastated in an instant. MVP looked like he hit decent EMPs but losing all those medivacs and so much supply of bio was too much. Parting capitalized, MVP didn't necessarily get unlucky, and Parting definitely took that win.

MvP got intercepted and took too much damage. He didn't have any drop ships to heal and thus the next engagement was gg. MvP did what he could do.

Anyways, map was imba for terran, Parting was heavily favored and easily got maxed. IMO, which will get flamed, Parting is heavily overhyped. He exploits end-game imba for protoss. His micro/decision-making is not on the level of previous GSL champions. Hopefuly MVP pulls it out.




So apparently, parting is not microing on the level of other gsl champions.

HE'S MICROING BETTER!

Has very little to do with hitting EMPs, more to do with position. You can't be on open ground, unless you have a shitton of ghosts or medivacs.

Haha I never thought I'd look forward to watching a PvP match


Both ZvP and TvP are dumb matchups. Starting to see a pattern But yeah, both Squirtle and HerO are going to play for macro matches because they are not afraid to do so. Hope the games are good so I don't waste so much time watching this.

How did he not pressure. You realize he was putting on Pressure by having his army out on the map, taking a third WAY earlier then Parting. You can't magically make a dropship get into the Protoss base when the Toss is leaving all his stalkers there and the sentries at the front. This isn't leaving Zerg alone forever AT ALL. So stupid. Yes MVP overmade vikings but as Toss lategame you pretty much amove army and then control templar. As Terran you have to kite all your bio, so pretty much once you go into kite bio mode, you lose ability to snipe templar (unless you're literally pulling 500apm in battle). That's why you see some templar snipes before the battle but once Toss started bringing them in mid battle after the ghosts weren't being controlled (or were dead as Terrans right now tend to keep ghosts in front), it's so strong. Parting played Toss perfectly though, turtling hardcore to get his deathball.



PartinG's strategy is completely disgusting. He rushed collosus to force terran to make vikings instead of medevacs, and immediately tech switched to HTs which made the vikings completely useless. THIS is why his deathball is so insanely strong - hes basically playing mindgames and forcing bad compositions from terran.

You can say spam scan or something - terran cant afford it. Not at this neck to neck play. The only way to beat this is blind countering, or having insanely good econ and getting a huge ball of everything before toss can have anything

Where did all this praising of cheese come from? Naniwa was such a noob for doing deadly 2 base timing a while ago.

Now MVP is a genius when he does a bunker rush. People are funny. If Naniwa had done the same the flaming would not had have any boundaries, but MVP have "champion mentallity" hence is it great.


Cheese is not some 'bad strategy.' 6 pool, FFE, triple OC, cannon rush, or whatever. It's just that some people think anything other than 30min game is cheap and boring.
