Having PartinG is SKT T1 won't change much in the ranking.
=> He's not allowed to play until Round 4
=> Round 4 is Heart of the Swarm
=> Everyone is basically at square 1

There we go.
Hey, if people aren't mad at you, you're doing something wrong.

In WOL? Sure probably. In HOTS? Don't count bee suit out yet.

Gratz to parting, skt1 and kt are literally the two best teams he could have joined in terms of quality of practice/salary ratio. Can't wait to see him kill nerds in round 3 of proleague.

That would be correct, except Parting does have insanely good micro on his side (and micro and macro skills don't go away just like that). It's not like he made all his money solely off of being ahead of the metagame.

boxers doing a mighty fine job leading that team. I'm very happy to see he's still doing well in the scene with this pickup in parting.

What if Parting was already practising for HotS and won't be at square 1...

I am not sure about that. Of course, some players will drop off and some new players will rise up. But that happened naturally through time anyways. If BW skills/work ethic can transfer over, I am sure WoL skills/work ethic will transfer even better to HoTS since it is the same game. Of course, PartinG might not be as dominate as WoL, but I doubt he will just go back to being average once HoTS hits. And after that, it will depend on how hard he works (same with every other player switching to HoTS).

Obviously a devious ploy by Parting.

It started off harmlessly...
How do you think things will go with Rain in the quarterfinals? Your PvP does appear to be shaky.

I don't think that my PvP is weak. If I try my best, I can win. During my BW days, Rain-hyung would do things like letting me watch his games. Since we were able to meet like this in SC2, I want to play an entertaining match with him.


The sting of the loss in OSL still rings deep...
You don't necessarily have the best PvP score yet you were confident that you would beat finale if you faced him?

Recently I've been winning all my PvPs. Back when I sucked at PvPs it was because I just wasn't practicing them. But after my loss to Rain hyung in the OSL, I've had this determination to extensively practice PvPs as well. So I've been preparing really hard since then and Squirtle hyung has helped me in so many areas where I was lacking so I was able to cover my holes.


Then at WCS Asia,
How do you feel about your performance this time?
Actually I'm surprised to get a 2nd place.
After seeing the bracket I know it will be hard, so my goal was getting into Top 6. But I kept willing so I aimed higher, sadly I lost to Rain.


And so the rivalry begins...
Are there any evidences as to why your immortal all ins are so strong?

Rain hyung stated that he saw my play back in WCS Asia and said he came up with a sure victory build order thanks to me. But then he tried it against hyvaa twice and ended up losing. I had a lot of fun watching that occur. There was no soul in his all ins. He also improperly placed his force fields. That's how much soul he's lacking. He can't win.


The thirst for vengeance...
Do you have anyone in this tournament you view as a rival?

I have a chance to face Rain hyung in the finals so I hope he makes it all the way there so I can grab my revenge.


Which match would you call your most difficult during this event?

There wasn't a single player whom I would consider an obstacle. The person whom I wanted to face in this tournament was Rain-hyung. I wanted to get revenge on him for the WCS Asia finals.


Do you have confidence that you will take the GSL Grand Finals?

I am indeed confident. I think that it'll be just like winning WCG 2012: aside from Rain, I've had experience defeating all of the other players, so I think I can manage to win. I've lost to Rain before at WCS Asia and the OSL, so I want to face him at the GSL Grand Finals and make sure to get my revenge.


Rain won OSL so how do you feel about that?

I can't help but think that I would've been the one standing there on the stage if I had just beaten Rain hyung. Honestly, I'm envious because of his victory but I'm also close friends with Rain hyung so I want to congratulate him. It seems like Rain hyung has been blocking my paths lately so this time it'll be my turn to do the same for him for the GSL.


Is there anyone specific you want to face for the Ro16?

If I get a chance to pick, I am going to grab MarineKing hyung, Rain hyung, and DRG hyung. I am confident that I can get through even a group of death. I especially want to face Rain hyung the most out of these three so I really hope Rain hyung makes it to the Ro16.


The saying goes, "Keep your friends close. Keep your enemies closer." I'd be sure to watch my back if I were Rain

Yes, as every other big tournament (GSL, MLG, IPL, etc) has already said they would switch once HoTS is out. I think all the players will be switching so it would be wierd if they had to play/practice both. Honestly, I think a lot of the players that did not make GSL and not in PL have probably started playing around HoTS.

If you read the interviews, most players haven't started playing it. But again, those interviews are from players still in GSL/PL.

Wow, this is big!

Why did only KT and SKT T1 try to sign him? It is sad to see that he isnt going to a team located in the lower half to help push them out of their misery -.-

if KT rolster gets parting they become *more* unstoppable.
Even if Parting can not play , but practicing with him among teammates will have great benefits
