What a truly disappointing state PvZ has become; all-in every game, hits before infestors: win, after: lose. Is there really going to be another three months of this..?

Moral of the story: When you get ahead, get more ahead and try not to kill your opponent when you already used your amazing push to get the lead.


Killing a hatchery then going home doesn't put you ahead.


It does if you stay a little while to delay third while getting your own third and teching up.


What league are you?

Standard LR, both sides whine and then there's the people whining about the whining.

Making an objective comment is whining about whining?

I'm just here to talk about the games son.

As am I, I wasn't saying you are one of people whining, I was describing that this isn't really that incredible of an LR at all.

Also 'son', really? D:

Amazing. A zerg doesn't try to hold his 3rd base and doesn't try to run headfirst into forcefields with ling/roach and holds the push and then wins the game.


This isn't the first game I've seen this, another zerg (can't remember who) won against Hero after giving up his third, massing infestors then retaking it. As long as the drones are moved from the third early and they don't throw away units they'll end up ahead. Most zergs are just too stubborn about trying to save the third though.


It was Leenock against HerO.

Play your best

It took a GSL champion to hold it. And a GSL champion just lost to it a round ago. Anyway, PvZ man. I'll stop complaining.

Great play from both players. Nice hold by Life. I wasn't sure if he could transition out of it but great engagement to kill the first colo. That was huge.


Rather:
"It took a GSL champion to hold an all-in from a double World Champion and the best Protoss player in the world at the moment."

That's a more accurate description.

He held it from the skin of his teeth. I doubt it will work the second time.. because it looked like as if parting was sort of confused for sometime til he decided to elevator. I think he should have done it earlier from the get go instead of brute forcing into spines.

no you arent ahead at all. zerg has infestors out and protoss no splash. when u try to take a third the zerg will just throw a million infested terrans at you and even if you have 1 colossus out by that time it is going to be super difficult to defend the third base.

I think Partings fall in that game is that he considers his push an all in when it really isnt. He is almost guaranteed to kill the third, and if he would just fall back and take his own third he would be ahead.

If he could do that and be ahead PvZ would most likely be broken. You actually can't afford to do that, You have to kill the zerg with it, otherwise your tech becomes outdated and you have nothing to answer for the swarm of units coming for you immediately afterwards.

Yeah infested terrans can kill you if you don't have aoe

Is is wrong for me to say that PartinG is the Bisu of SC2? :p
(Revolutionist)


Someone will probably lynch you for that, but I agree with you.


doing the same all-in in the same matchup doesn't make you a revolutionist, it just makes you a bit-by-bit without the scvs


This. Bisu created a safe opening with multiple tech branches. Parting made one entire build and made sure everyone would see it everytime in his and every other Toss's games against Z. That ain't a revolution, it seems like a new kind of fascist regime for Toss players.

Do you prefer to try going lategame and die to Broodlord infestor? For those QQing:
1) this build was made to avoid the incredibly overpowered zerg lategame.
2) no one executes this build as well as parting.
3) this is totally counterable, and not relying on coinflips like Protoss vs infestorbroodlord
4) at least its much more interesting than snoozefest of lategame PvZ knowing the Z will win anyways.
5) yes, we know there shouldnt be unbeatable builds. too bad. #hoping for hots


Lol. You seem quite offended as well. I think both late PvZ and this mid-game immortal-sentry all-in are stupid. And as good as Parting is (I do believe he's a good player), he ain't no revolutionist.

Why go around assuming others are offended and pretending that you won an argument? I just responded to you, and you respond by saying exactly what I said in my post.


Okay, okay. Take it easy. Sorry, I misread your post. Anyway, it's still my opinion that I just don't like either of these scenarios. And it just irritates me to have to see this or the other case in every PvZ. Plus, most of my negativity was in response to these claims that Parting is some sort of revolutionist (in the vein of Bisu). Well, he's an amazing player but he isn't a revolutionist.

Still watching the games though. Cheers.

Edit: We may not like watching Infestors, but Life did not "just make infestors" that game. He held well with more than that.

"Hey, life deserved to win. He played amazingly well".

Yeah, it's funny though. When parting plays like a god (the god*), he wins because immortal/sentry is imba, but when Life wins a game with infestor/ling, people shouldn't be allowed to go "infestors imba"? Zerg bias at its best :D

WHOAH LIFE DEFENDED, what do you say now?


the point is not that it is undefetable, come on, no one is buying Parting's trash talk. but when you win 90% of the time when your opponent scouts what you are doing at the perfect time, then it needs to be talked about. I am of the opinion that if you know an all-in is coming and prepare for it well, you should crush it. if you can't, the match-up becomes broken. I'm a toss player, right now the matchup is 100 PERCENT based around this build. that's not good.

A GSL champion to combat with another GSL champion? Holy shit batman, somebody give this man an award.


LOL! Sure, I could use one. And your reply doesn't make sense. It took someone like Life to hold against it ONE TIME. Sniper (a GSL champion himself) couldn't hold it given multiple opportunities.

Life against Sniper? Are you high or something? What are you talking about, man?
