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.


Because it won him the championship two seasons back. Lol. Of course, your opinion could be more credible than a GSL trophy.

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.



50% - MC won vs July

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.


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.


not to mention that Parting took a pretty safe and early third, and life didn't do any damage with his early infestors.

guess how much chance a protoss has vs a zerg if he does no damage off 2base and zerg takes a safe and early third
endure. in enduring, grow strong.

Parting obviously knows Life's style being his teammate and was probably expecting it.

Life losing a lot of his high energy infestors and depleting the energy of the rest of them set him back too far defensively and he couldn't hold the push. He tried doing everything he can afterward losing his infestors but wasn't able to damage or delay Parting enough.

Nestea vs MKP.


Funny thing is both of those finals were the biggest choke jobs ever. Even though Genius only took 2 games he was in a good position in like every single one and always ended up losing.

Life's build order was quite smart, 11 pool because Parting never scouts, then really fast +1 attack and infestors. It is just a pity that Parting played so safe so he managed to do no damage with any of it

Yeah - MMA's Blizzard Cup gave him another pin (or do they call them badges?), and the caliber of the players present sure as heck is equal to Code S.

Maybe an overseer patrolling the area would be more safe for those infestors
