Dropping like bogus (which means staying in code S) is quite ok if you're perfoming well in foreign tournaments. dropping more is quite annoying.

it's definitely annoying for the fan but might be worth for the player.

Another round of warpins force a GG from PartinG. Zest takes a 1-0 lead!

Closer than I was comfortable with, but a win is a win. Close this out now damn it, so nervous no KT players will advance.

Didn't fully pay attention, but how is Partings DT shrine behind Zest's, if parting started the game with a 10 gate?

2:00 Gateway for both players. Zest's is much faster. Both players take two assimilators but Zest's second assimilator is later.
3:00 Cybernetics core for both players. Zest hides a twilight council below his main base. PartinG hides a twilight council in the upper right corner of the map.
4:00 Stalker for both players. Both players building a dark shrine! Second gateway started for PartinG.
5:00 PartinG's mothership core gets into the main of Zest and kills 6 probes before recalling. Zest expanding. PartinG getting a robotics facility. Zest warping in a DT across the map. PartinG warping in two DTs.

Sigh. My nerves. It's going to be 1-1...

PartinG ties the series up 1-1!
