I can understand why Rain attacked though. It looked like he just needed to push Parting over to win the game.

Just theorycrafting here: Since phoenix are so fast and can take on any unit of Rain pretty well, shouldn't Rain just try to consolidate his army at one place instead of going out and attacking, thus giving the phoenix opportunities to attack stray units?

People never learn that this doesn't work against Parting.

That's the kind of game that everyone thinks is awesome, except of the few elitez nerds in the corner complaining about how the strategies weren't optimal :D (and the losing player's die-hard fans, I guess).

Rain could have afforded a 4th gate. That would have won him the game. With a 4th gate it doesn't matter whether he attacks or defends, he wins either way.

I'm not a fan of either player. It's just that PvP shouldn't work this way. 2nd base is supposed to reward the player. If you have any logical thinking, you'll agree.

This is why PvP is bullshit and I don't like it even one bit. 1 base > 2 bases. Despite Rain's mistakes, he should have won if PvP was a normal match-up.

no, this game was a brilliant example of why pvp is anything but a bullshit matchup. if you only want to watch something straight up 'macro only' mass roach vs mass roach zvz has that perfectly covered

The second base rewarded rain with staying in the game even though parting was way more efficient and had better tech
