If he wasn't behind that's even worse... I just assumed he was behind cause he made that decision to doom drop. He dropped like two centimeters away from the ramp where the stalkers were, that's a bit different from being stealthy.

If herO loses versus Cure PartinG is confirmed PvT god.

herO is going to beat Cure, I feel, and although I think Flash will beat Trap, Trap is going to take at least one map.
Also, passive aggressive NaniRage is lol-worthy.

If you want to beat PartingvT you need to wear an Mvp mask.

if you look at the sponsor sign, right under rotti and incontrol, you see a mouse cursor moving around lol

Cleary he mindgamed by doing something insane his opponent would never expect.

Who was the last person to take a full series off of Parting in PvT at a premier tournament, actually?

Banning swag_bro was pretty dull choice from the mods. Yes, his points aren't superficially the paramount of posting brilliance, but we all had a pretty good time laughing at him and then some mods needed to poop all over the party becasue of the "rules". We should just push for a Swag_bro Exception. Maybe ask Blizzard?

Last time he lost a bo5+ offline was vs MarineKing in Hot6ix

I agree with Olli though, this isn't maru's a-game
|
grr I have to leave for a 3 hour seminar... hope there is a 2 hour swarmhost game with loads of technical difficulties and I don't miss much
|
I have a lot of respect for Patience, but this result is anything but surprising. Jin Air Jin Air Jin Air ! ! Hyped for Flash.

Not much to say about game 3 though, Patience made mistakes and Maru didn't
