i'm not so sure parting is better than byun though. byun has less results than parting this year, but he's also had less opportunity than parting. byun gogo! He looked awful last season but good 2 seasons ago. 90% of people would tell you Parting is better and Byun has had all the same opportunities, just has failed to capitalize on it unlike Parting. Your bias is crazy -_- parting did just as well as byun did last season, haha. Parting didn't look awful like Byun did though. And at the same time Parting put up results in WCS Asia while Byun did nothing . well, byun did lose to rain, and in his second series against rain he didn't look quite awful parting got pretty badly smacked by leenock in the second series and only won the first by all-ins byun didn't make wcs asia, true, but that was due to an inexplicable loss to terious =.= and byun got wo'd in wcg kr too. which is what i meant by less opportunity. Well seeing as all-ins are the way to go in PvZ I can only blame Protoss when they don't go for the all-in. The confusion on my face when Squirtle didn't all-in Leenock at all ._. didn't squirtle try to immortal allin leenock but get 10pooled?

yes, squirtle did the ST variation of Ohana immortal all-in where you go pylon in base, nexus then forge in main then second pylon without scouting.

I try not to think about PvZ these days.

oh well hope Parting and Byun nowaitleelikeshim, anyone but Byun then! :D

Not sure if Parting will top the group but he should go through. He might be the king of PvT but his PvZ and PvP are quite unconvincing think we may end up with a 3-way tie between Parting Byun and Trap

Oh man I love the up&down groups. I think we got great chances of getting a tie-breaker today  Keen and Shine to advance today!
Also I think every single player in this group has a legit chance of advancing. A lot of people here seem to underestimate Shine and asd but I think this group will be more close then the last two groups

i wonder why ppl post like this when its quite the fact that partings vZ is unstoppable with immortalsentry and he knows how to flip a coin pretty well ala wcs asia, and parting isnt really the king of pvt anymore, hes still good at it, but should not be recognized for it

I want to see Shine make it into his first Code S and Parting to qualify because I'd like to see him make another deep Code S run. Plus, the other night we saw karma in action as Hack got into Code S because of aLive, even though aLive had already been eliminated. Hack had done the same thing for Seed in Season 3. Last season Shine got SuHoShin in, so I think it's time for someone to return the favor.

Immortal Sentry is map-specific you can't just use it every game and it's starting to figured out slightly people opting for base trades rather than fighting head on
Parting and Alicia will always be the PvT kings with Rain joining them soon.

I hope Parting return to code A where he belongs.

He was pretty godly when he had that MLG/NASL run before the SlayerS drama has kept him quiet ever since, nevertheless this Immortal Sentry gimmick is just a flavour of the month it's not a build I'd bank on every game.

Actually Alicia was PvT king well over a year ago, I thought thats what your post was referring too. Artosis said that Alicia would win GSL or something like that and then he disappeared for the most part until this year when he got those two 2nd places.

three second places actually ;o
