That Life dude had the balls to go play in GSL.

Really respect Parting hanging on for so long there but he should probably consider doing something else in game 4

Playstyles are very different. Reynor is much more comparable imo.

life played very aggressive and Maru-esque style(or MAru plays Life-esque  ). Serral plays the opposite.

Life and Serral are too stylistically different, I've seen more comparison between Reynor and Life.

IMO serral plays more like soulkey and 2013 soo

Maru has been playing so well, but Parting has coped with some really tough situations and shown that he deserves this stage. These have been really exciting matches.
What was it in the shit-talking group selection from some Zerg ... something about that you know what Parting has coming, and still end up losing to it.

(Full disclosure: my passion for Starcraft was directly contingent on Life playing the game) There is no real comparison between the two because they are very, very different players both in terms of disposition and playstyle. Serral was hardly noteworthy by the time Life was banned, so there's no direct comparison to be made between them in that sense either. But Life was a very special player gameplay-wise, which is why he's not usually the player other Zergs are compared against. Much better to set a "standard" Zerg as the metric than some insane kid. Maybe Reynor is a fair comparison? I still don't think so but their approaches are far more similar, whereas Serral is a the archetypal control Zerg.

I would say the most apt comparison to Serral is ByuL especially in his 2015 peak.

That's quite petty. Some people compared Reynor to Life and I am pretty sure you will say the spaghetti boi is a trash player.
The reason why there are not compared is because Serral is a pure macro Zerg (like a very upgraded version of Stephano) while Life is a very agressive one. It's more about style rather than perf.
And before you begin some other attacks, I rank Life ahead of Serral... and Maru.

i hope parting is able to reach his full potential soon. his games often look weird in a good way.
