yes, exactly. Hatch first is soooo much stronger than 14pool in terms of pumping drones.

Except the build has failed miserably the last 9 out of 10 times.
And ZvP lategame is unbeatable if the zerg knows what he is doing really, even Nestea thinks so.

Sniper played assuming immortal sentry so I guess he got away with playing pretty greedy in the early game.

He beat everyone, incuding Sniper himself before at GSTL. DRG, Curious, off the top of my head, said he beats Life in practice always too.

Some things about the failure of Parting's push : - Daybreak is not the best map to do this build - Sniper played reaaaaaaaaally greedy : hatch first and really late roach warren - the +1 carapace help him a lot - at the very first engagement Parting didn't forcefield correctly and some roaches killed at least 3 sentries with energy
Now that zerg metagame too much the immo all in, they might become more vulnerable to +1 4 gate zealots and other gateway pushes

Though in practise the first Won is PartinG. I.e. PartinG won money.

This. I'm only a Kespa fan as to how a Lakers fan is a Lakers fan.
I seriously don't think they're gods among men in SC2. The thing is, as a fan, I hope they do become such.
Really hope Parting pulls it together here. He's a very good and charismatic player. I like him.

Parting had 100% winrate with this build before today. And it was obvious Sniper had practiced a lot to be able to beat that specific build. He knew what he had to do to beat it, probably been immortal allin by his teammates all week for this match.

This is a good point. I guess everyone should see it coming, especially when they have to play Parting.
