Had Parting micro'd that last phoenix + archon battle better he'd have won. He had archons attacking a single muta when there were like 4 of them bunched up, and his phoenixes was on the wrong side attacking corruptors.

The lack of emotion after such a close game is the reason RoRo has only 400 twitter followers.

have to agree that parting lost too many phoenixes needlessly, otherwise a nice game

Honestly that was a shitty ending. If parting would have just kept his HT's with his army both times he would have won easily. Why did he keep leaving them behind?

He wouldn't have won, the game just would have gone on a bit longer because the mutas would have retreated and healed to full from the storms in like 1 minute.
