Game 2: Parting scoutin hive timing with hallucination, which makes that ability kinda op Game 3: Parting screwin' up, giving Stephano free stalkers Game 4: choo choo, hey there, it's the OP train. First Zerg op, now Protoss op. Makes me feel like SC2 getting uninteresting. | ||

They had gotten dependent and used to infestor broodlord, and the swarmhost and viper are both very different from anything the zerg previously had. | ||

It should be virtually unstoppable with a player like Parting's control. Ultimately comes down to terrible game design. Terran still only well designed race. Protoss and Zerg and hilariously badly designed. Opinions are fun | ||

I'm sure there was some occasional good games (i've heard some of mvp's tvt were good, but it was already a good matchup in wol), but from what i've seen the core issues of sc2 were not fixed. | ||

Protoss and Zerg and hilariously badly designed. no it's not simple at all. At least not in the way you describe it. the immortal timing can be held in various ways. Actually it doesn't matter too much which composition you have, as the Protoss composition is "catchall" to begin with. You "just" have to outplay your opponent. Or he fucks up with his FFs. | ||

I didn't see an observer with partings force yeah parting sends in the observer later, since you get an evo anyway you can hide the baneling nest and get all his sentries with 3 burrowed banelings. And stream in at that moment. But I guess pros don't do this since it only works once and well it is a one shot to win or lose. | ||

Parting is the only player on the whole world that can execute this build so perfectly. Stephano hasn't ever see this build before on HotS. Parting is the only Protoss in the tournament doing this build. It's a very particular case. Don't fucking judge the whole expansion for it. | ||
