More likely he just didn't pay attention. He was paying attention, his marines were running unstimmed to his main mineral line the whole time. He even built a turret in his natural line. He did everything but run.... I guess he just underestimated them or something.... | ||

Oracle expand has been my favourite PvT build to do on ladder  That being said they are extremely fragile and if scouted and you have a marine or two with the turret it gets shut down hard and leaves you really far behind. You have to do crippling damage and turtle up hardcore because after the initial harras you are very, very vulnerable to attacks. | ||

Well Parting still has GSL to play too. But on the most part this is correct. Fantasy is still prepping hard for Pro league. Parting can't play in Pro league till the HotS round, SKT is very, very Pro league first team so I expect he has been playing a crap ton more HotS then Fantasy | ||

Come on, guys - Parting doesn't have all that much to prepare for except wonwonwoning three Zergs in his GSL group. He cannot play SPL until Heart of the Swarm is out. Likewise, he knows that this match - Heart of the Swarm - decides if he gets to go to MLG Winter or not. On the other hand, Fantasy plays, at least, 2 important matches WoL each week. Even if Protoss is stronger than Terran in HoTS' current state, one player here is quite obviously more experienced than the other. | ||

Parting is also on SKT and on SKT the teams needs come before the majority of your own. That's why SKT have generally always done so well in proleague. He's probably practicing with the top in SKT for GSL, but while they're practicing for proleague he'll be practicing for HoTS I believe. | ||
