Partings looked sharp today, Maru made (more) mistakes. The balance talk and talk about this game should be separate imo.

TY stopped it by blind countering it, good strat right. Look how well TY did against protoss in code B!

You can't prepare PL and GSL at the same time.

Maru and TY stopped this build in Round1 And how many have failed? You asked a question. I answered. As far as I remember he played against 3 gate blink into DT on Yeonsu. So he didn't play against this build he played against minimal blink commitment into fast DTs Really ? So that was Maru that stopped it 2times on Yeonsu ? Or another Terran ? i have bad memory. I know that happened but i'm not sure of the players
I dont remember all the games correctly but there is obviously a difference between doing something like 2 base blink off 3 gates into tech and committing on 6 or more gates. Also, there is a difference if terran somehow manages to scout the number of gates accompanying blink or not. And scouting that vital information is very hard because at the moment those extra gates are being made, it is almost impossible to get a reaper in because protoss already has a MSC and a couple stalkers positioned in entry points.

It's still pretty hard. Maps aren't all the same so you can't always rely on builds you do in the other tournaments.

Go to the designated balance thread if you don't want to discuss the game.
Simple as that. The fact that everyone is belittling skill from an excellent protoss based on a game where the poor, poor Terran played less than optimal is easy to argument versus. The balance whine thread is supposed to be the sponge that removes the stains from these threads.

On TL.net you get banned/warned for telling the truth. I suspect that the mod didn't find him well articulated enough though.
So ... double bad.

Im just disgusted by this matchup. Its frustrating even as a spectator!

Well I was told the first part was ok but the 2nd part got too balance whiney.

PvT has issues but there are a lot of dishonest people here. Nobody can say that opening with 4 reapers and losing them for 2 stalkers and a few probes is good, especially when you have yet to deal with a MsC harassing units going out of your barracks. As fancy as Maru's micro was, it was just not efficient at all. He had nothing but empty bunkers at home.

You have a fair point there. I was just trying to address what other ppl were saying and getting my 2 cents in before i go back to bed. Gg skt hwaiting!

Check Maru's build.
He goes hyper aggressive with 4 reapers while his opponent doesn't scout. If Terran doesn't scout 10 gate and opens wrongly - HE DIES. What is Partings response? Not control his MSC because not controlling it is perfectly fine, do some amove with his stalkers, and hey, he comes out ahead.
Do you know how much Maru (HAD TO) invest in structures? He got a really fast ebay (during reaper 3/4, because of Orable) and had 4 Bunkers. He even cut upgrades at this point.
Terran has to make soo many precautions in their builds that pretty much everything is inefficient in an optimal situation. How the game ended was just insult to injury with Parting going really dirty, but this game perfectly showed how limited Terran is in Build Orders while Protoss has a standard build order that deals with everything Terran can think of.

There's a lot of assuming... " it >seems< protoss yadda yadda because of MsC, while terran is fucked if yadda yadda".

To be honest, you could say the same about a number of the matchups currently. I was pretty excited to watch this playoff match and proleague is probably my favorite league overall, but that still wasn't enough to hold by attention for very long. I had the stream on the whole time, but I was probably watching less than 33% of the time.
