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? I mean other than Maru terran didn't win anything else, one of those seasons he was literally the only terran in the ro8 as well
Remember when there was 1 Zerg in GSL ro8 for all of 2016?

All I know is that nobody maxes out on 6 colossi anymore.
Why spend 36 supply on colossi when you could instead have 36 supply of 3 different types of AOE that all need to be reacted to?
Meanwhile PartinG has forgotten he started the game with a DT drop.

Oh hey Parting's doing the thing where Terrans build a new fusion core for lib range after opening BC

Only the colossus shoots lasers, this should be reason enough

Why is that different from Maru doing things nobody else could? Fango is a guy who called Rain a cheesy Protoss. Do not expect him to remember Parting beating Terrans with his first 3 units while boasting 92% PvT winrste for 6 months 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.
To be fair the top games of Maru was Maru attacking at 3 fronts, or from 3 screens at the same time so the observers couldn't handle it even with the better observing thingies of HotS. Rarely any Protoss did this on the scale of Maru or at least less intensive Terrans. it's not about them not doing it, it's them doing it less. Imagine Parting from PvT WoL when he was rampaging Terrans with the templar openings.

Lets ignore a few minutes ago when I said the title of best micro of all time is literally between PartinG and Maru, or when I've said PartinG is the best PvT player of all time bar none.
Also I called Rain a cheesy protoss?

There were two GSL only, and SSL was a Z thing, and so was the Cross-finals finals.

At least the fusion core offers 3 upgrades. The dark shrine offers a measly 1, I think this needs to be corrected.

Your point being? I said literally 10 minutes ago that zerg was trash in 2016 yet no one talks about it. What are you trying to get at here

Which is actually good now and even compared to Shadow Stride it's underused.

Oh shit you're right. Since microbial shroud is free I guess that's the most useless upgrade in the game now.

Point being thats it's fucking stupid to bring up 1 person results to justify wgatever balance agenda you have which is what I directly illustrated, but then you still argued with my obvious mockery.
