Both players were recognized by Parting as the two of the top three Protosses in the understanding of the PvP matchup (the other being herO who took games off of both players).


Parting said sOs, herO, and Zest, no?

I'm pretty sure he said Elfi too.
TaeJa IS a bonjwa. TLO - Scarlett - Snute - MaNa - HerO - TeamLiquid fighting!

Zest defeating sOs doesn't impress me when it's clear that sOs threw all the games out of the jetlag effect.

I used to be a big fan of Rain because he would always play a solid macro game and almost never all in which is what protoss players do very often but after the interview with him in which he stated that terran is op as bl/inf because top 16gm has 10 terrans is so ridiculous that I couldnt stand such bs. He doesnt get that Ts have nothing better to do than ladder all day long since they didnt even get to code s so they have no games to prepare for specifically.

Zest is really good PvP wise, seems to have almost Life-like confidence and looks like a stone cold killer. I hope he wins.

Isnt he a royal roader btw?

Thanks for the writeup, I just recently started following the Korean scene, and this was really helpful to hype for the matchup. A really nice way to put backstory to the players and context!
I will live in Korea no matter what.

Great article, great analysis. I cannot wait for this game to start, i stayed up all night to watch this game and it's almost here! I love both of these players and they've both been great protoss to learn from. If i HAD to make a prediction I'd probably go against the grain and say Rain wins, 4-3. I could see any combination ofr a 4-2/4-3 win for either player though. Should simply be one of the best pvp series we've saw in a while.
What we obtain too cheaply; we esteem too lightly. It is in dearness only that gives everything it's value.
