How surprising, a computer issue. Why is it GOM computers seem to never have an issue anymore but OGN computers die all day? Who said it was a computer issue and not a latency issue? Also, I very rarely see any issues in Proleague. Happens moreso in OSL, and was a bigger factor in Proleague earlier in the season and during the hybrid season too iirc. Just typically seems to be a computer issue so its easier to make that assumption everytime.
Much more likely it's an issue with Starcraft 2 itself. OGN is a professional company; do you think they're just buying cheap computers to save a few dollars? How come they never had issues with Brood War and never have issues with LoL?

I wonder how much that break contributed to him coming up with that.

i'm not sure why he canceled his nexus? even behind in workers he would have had his 2nd up much faster than parting and would be making 2 probes to partings 1

You should have seen that coming Dear. Bad, bad, bad!

Dark templar in sc2 cannot be compared to broodwar imo, it is so easy to get detection in this game, they are more of a glorified harassing unit now for mid/late game

I don't think it would have? He wasn't the one who got scouting information before the break, and I'm pretty sure SKT would have prepared that build well in advance - not Parting ad libbing on the fly because of a 5-10 minute break.

its very cool to send all your anti air units to attack 1 phenoix and fall for the bait. jesus Christ do you even think before you post?

Implying baiting units away from the worker line for your harass unit to do damage is a difficult strat to come up with
I'm frankly surprised Dear fell for it.

Then he has to invest incredibly heavy on economy. Parting's expo may have been slower but his overall economy and standing army would have been much stronger. The end would have been the same except hit much earlier since parting wouldn't have had to worry about saturation. 
edit: so basically there are 2 risk choices at that point. Try to play incredibly greedy with mass probes and no army or, the risk which he took, attempt to all in. Didn't work o:

He had like 8 probes, there was no way he'd have enough army to hold anything if he went 2 probes at a time and spent 400 on a nexus. He just had to go with blink and hope for the best

What was wrong with his post? He's right in saying oracles catching someone off guard is pretty much gg, just like dts are.
