What makes C.K. unique is that overlord position in front of Protoss natural which is usually considered disadvantage for Protoss. However, by killing the overlord with his stalker/sentry, Parting indirectly showed Sniper that observer is there. Because of this, Sniper probably expected robo expand by confirming observer first instead of immortal first. Then, Parting proceeds with immortal/sentry anyways, while making sure killing the scouting ling at 3rd as well. Not that Sniper completely ignored the possibility of immortal/sentry just by seeing the observer, but it sure made him feel safer than otherwise. Turning that infamous overlord position into his own advantage was really smart of Parting. Indeed. So smart! | ||

Zerg player here. PartinG's Sentry-Immortal allins and micro are ridiculous and he deserves to win this series even if he does the same build a third time in a row. I guess I'm a little biased against Sniper, though. | ||

I mean, it's cool the first few times a Protoss does awesome force fields and wins an engagement with 0 casualties, but then you realise that their opponent could do literally nothing but sit there and die and it loses its lustre. By the same token though, if the Protoss doesn't force field properly they just die without doing anything in return. It was a fun ability to watch towards the dawn of SC2, but now it's just a daily reminder of the fundamental design flaws of the game. FF is just a bad spell in general; toss needs to use them perfectly to survive but ff used perfectly wipes the floor with everything. | ||

Wolf's got game and is a great middle ground between play by play and analysis imo. His solocast was pretty amazing and Khaldor's heart is basically beating with starcraft. | ||

I mean, that wait, not wasting even 1, then when it comes down he just has them perfect and obliterates everything without even losing 5 units himself... NEED MORE ZERG TEARS ITT I really agree with this. This is not just good or great FFs as it's often said. These were godly. And keeping them perfect while also perfectly microing with warp prism and loosing so few units, I mean God that was beautiful. | ||
