Byun is the Terran version of Parting
Parting is the micro GOAT Micro GOAT can't win a GSL? ByuN needed a heavily Terran favored meta to win GSL too. It's not like being the best at micro makes a GSL win easy. The meta was basically him. Yes, Terran didn't win everything. But the Koreans were unanimous about saying that Zerg was shit and Terran strong. Does literally anyone think zerg wasn't trash in 2016? Why it rarely gets brought up confuses me Because it is the Terran players who are most vocal about the game when they do not win 7 GSLs in a row. Dark had the best results overall in 2016, Zerg definitely wasn't trash. Maru won 4 GSLs in a row and people still yapped about it being bad for Terran though? He was the only one Terran reaching finals. Be serious please. Contrary to Zergs dominating the GSL :D?

For real, Rain as far as i remember started to cheese once he got caught he only macroes and got hard countered

Of course, the more important function of the colossus is that it causes the Terran to make bad units aka vikings.

And SSL was full of Z with a ZvZ finals during Cross-finals, but yes, Zerg was so bad that the guy ending the hegemony had to cheese every game.

I think it's generally much harder to distinguish finesse/superior control in Protoss players compared to Terran players. Parting's Soul Train was a masterclass in immortal/sentry control and way better than his peers', but at a glance it didn't look very different from anyone else's similar push. Terran bio makes it much easier to determine which player is better, whereas many Protoss players seem to "just win". At least, that's the conclusion I'm drawing from how people have talked about Protoss players forever.

This kind of thing separates Bunny from top Terrans, misreading the situation so much hurts.

PartinG was the best with a composition that was already strong/meta, it's less impressive than working with compositions that were unplayable for anyone else. Let alone actually dominating/being the best terran with that composition.
Maru was smashing toss with biomine before mines got buffed to actually be good against protoss. Playing no viking against collosus and winning purely by micro'ing his units that well. He used to do all kinds of crazy shit like splitting his units so collosus could only hit one marauder each, grabbing peices of his army mid engagement to snipe them down, even kiting only the specific units that chargelots locked onto so the rest of his army could max DPS.

All I know is that nobody maxes out on 6 colossi anymore.

I mean it's a bit like how people would scratch their heads wondering why sOs' insane cheeses would work so often or why people would consistently be caught off-guard by Life's zergling backstabs. There are a lot of tiny details that separate players even if it looks at a glance like everyone's doing more or less the same thing but with different results.

Except when protoss is really strong, all the things that can win games as protoss are meta. What you demand of protosses to get to the level of Maru is impossible.
