I believe only one GSL has ever had the winner not win the first game, DRG vs genius.


100% of the time that a protoss has won the first game in a PvZ finals the protoss has lost.

Parting won the first game, this means he loses.

Part of that is because of the ordeal they were making you do to attend. I was going to go, but they wanted you pick up your tickets before the show match (and attend). I'm sorry, but I don't want to spend 7 hours at a sporting event. I would've gladly come for the finals, but I didn't feel the need to sit through the show matches and awards to go.

It's nice that finally someone managed to exploit Life's infestor sneak attacks. He does that in almost every matchup and it's so risky, I'm glad it's finally getting punished.

2 base zerg just has no chance against 2 base protoss. Zerg needs to get the third ASAP or else it's hopeless in the long term. Parting didn't play his best (gave away a free colossus) and still won very easily.

The colossus was a bit of bad luck, he needed it with his army and could not know that there were lings.

Life was doing just fine till he gave away a HANDFUL of Infestors.

PartinG outplayed him. No balance whine need apply.

No, actually Life going 2base infestor meant that parting could not savely go WonWonWon or he dies to fungal. Life was the one who took a huge risk as he sent out like 8 infestors and nearly lost all of them without damaging anything.

Yeah, let's ruin the final by ignoring that Life lost a bunch of infestors for free.

This is why you should not be active with your infestors. Just sitting back and massing up works fine. Why be active and risk to lose all your shit and the game.

There's active and then there's foolhardy. This was the latter.

It's sad though, because being active with them is much more entertaining to watch - but somewhat (allright, really) risky. Massing them is the safer route, but also much more boring. Although, what Life did there was not smart. That was too risky.

Did Life have burrow when he sent the infestors out? It looked like he didn't.
