Marauders deal so little damage vs zealots.
I think widow mines are the most effective answer during the midgame. Lategame, you need good upgrades and EMP.

Wolf is much more into precise commentating and forecasting, therefore logically makes more mistakes. If you stick to play to play and obvious predictions, your rate of errors will be lower, though you will still have no clue.

Should terran army compositions perhaps include more marauders to counteract this? Perhaps hellbats? Mines are the answer to zealot heavy armies. Very tough in a game like this though, Maru never had the economy to do that, especially because it didn't start out with a zealot-heavy army but a standard blink/colossus opening. Switching to mine production after an SCV pull is pretty impossible. Parting was smart to take advantage of that.
That makes a lot of sense to me, as well as the fact that Marauders deal little damage to Zealots (ty Helium).
I hadn't realized that Parting's grasp of PvT was that good. Very well played from him I guess. It sucks to be a Maru fan though, hopefully he can pull through in the next two series.

wow stats has a really wide nose.

According to the spoilered results the first match went as follows: Parting wins G1, both win G2, both lose G3.

I aggree with this, however nontheless this makes Wolfs casts overall less enjoyable, like if you already don't really kno that much about how the game works on a high level, then you shouldn't make those predictions.
Tastless does his play by play role really good, rarely ventures into territory where he seems COMPLETELY clueless, however Wolf makes atleast 8 wrong calls in any game thats longer than 15 minutes...
And the times where Tasteless and Wolf were casting together, Tasteless was actually correcting Wolf at some times, soo..... yea....

Wolf isn't a comparable caster to Tasteless though. What you see in Tasteless having 0 game knowledge is tasteless breaking down the game so that it's easy for someone who isn't into Starcraft to understand what's going on. Tasteless relies on Artosis's game knowledge, which is excellent, which is why they're an excellent casting duo.
Obviously, sometimes casters making wrong calls. get over it :/
