YES! Parting going for a standard build.

Alright. I admit I haven't been the most positive or friendly poster this thread but I'll stop complaining now.

I guess I've been doing both of these great players a disservice by discrediting either player's late-game or mid-game skill.

Still, I'm a Life fan. GO LIFE!

Most people give LIfe credit for being a top player and anyone who doesn't is misguided. Most people were just annoyed when they saw code B foreign zergs smashing top Korean tosses with that style.


why would a top Korean toss allow some Code B foreign zerg go infestor/broodlord?


Maybe they didn't feel like all-ining every game?

Parting is not a GSL Champion unless I'm forgetting something.

Not yet. Only double World Champion (which is worth less than a GSL, I agree), but I think most people would agree that his play is worthy of a GSL champion.

there are many many players who have had play worthy of being a GSL champion. it's not quite the same ;p


Most notably MKP T_T

leenock too

but who was bomber?

gumiho is a better bomber ;p


Except when Bomber goes Super Saiyan (His two MLG killing sprees come to mind) - then they're pretty even.


For all we know Gumiho could've outright won those MLGs. Gumiho > Bomber all the time


I'm not sure. They should throw in top-performing Bomber in a GSTL final game where Gumiho's already gotten four kills. That'd be badass!

if only bomber wasnt the most inconsistent and streaky player in sc2 history. he has no B game - he either plays like the best goddamn player in the world or like a low diamond scrub.

back in 2011 he may have played "like the best goddamn player" but in 2012 even when he peaks, he's just very good.

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

I am not sure but couldn't he hold with other units, e.g. Hydras?
Of he could, then there is still the question why Infestors counter everything whereas the way starcraft should be designed is, that there should only be 1 or 2 units (or combos) counter another. I could be wrong though and if the only valid counter is the infestor, I haven't said anything.

You're allowed to have opinions and you're allowed to voice them no matter what they're about as long as you can back them up, which you have.

Either way, GO LIFE/PARTING

To be honest all foreigner zergs except for Stephano are probably Code B level skill-wise.

considering that code B players can take series off almost everyone, but not consistently, that seems about right haha
