Good lord, Flash left no doubts this time. Just completely rolled over TaeJa in each game. Every time TaeJa tried to take an inch, Flash pushed back and took an entire continent.

I'm ready for the Flash vs PartinG grand final. My bet is PartinG taking it 4-1. Please prove me wrong FLASHUUUUUUU

 

[Aaron]

Flash still holding a grudge on that ruler ceremony Parting did on him. Don't make fun of the man's ruler.

 

[jasonng]

What's frightening is that I thought Taeja played really well and Flash was still able to school him.

 

[demosthenes]

FLASH!!

 

[Holden]

Corran so rude.

he is rude as fuck

 

[Corran Horn]

he is rude as fuck

Only to the French children

 

[Madn]

So a PvT final

 

[survivor]

So did Losira put up a better fight against Parting than JD? I was busy watching the VOD of Flash vs Taeja, but not surprised to see Parting win 3-0.

Parting had it quite easy

 

[Daante]

oh my god twitch chat during that song rofl hahahhaa

 

[SamuraiX-]

They bring on this Hey Kappa guy to sing the same song with louder music than what TempO got during his performance instead of letting TempO deliver a true performance where the music doesn't cut out. How classy.


So Flash and PartinG have dropped a combined total of 3 maps this whole weekend.

Let's rock.

 

[Madn]

Missed the first game, how did they play?

 

[SamuraiX-]

PartinG trying to bring sexy back with Blink all-ins.

 

[Syf]

but that's not sexy at all

 

[Madn]

wow that was fast

 

[Aaron]

wow that was fast

That's what Flash said.

 

[SamuraiX-]

but that's not sexy at all

Unless your name's David Kim.

This how disgustingly broken Protoss looks when you put the race in the hands of a player who knows how to abuse its gimmicks with maximum efficiency.

 

[Lethe82]

When Protoss actually micro to a level that is comparable to terran they become a monster.

 

[calder]

Come on Flash, comeback starts now

 

[Lethe82]

I just wanted to take a moment to give Incontrols collective suicide pact joke the respect it deserves, holy hell. XD

EDIT This is the most entertaining casting of the year.

 

[calder]

Holy shit he even snipes the colo Drop? <3 Flash forever

 

[SamuraiX-]

Flash took TempO's Stim To Win performance yesterday a little too literally.

EDIT This is the most entertaining casting of the year.

*PartinG gets his Robo Bay + Warp Prism w/ Colossus sniped*

"All right! Pretty solid harass! Time to take a third!"

I love Rotti. lol

 

[Aaron]

Parting's micro is insane. I never thought I'd say this of a protoss, but he should switch to terran.

 

[Lethe82]

Parting's micro is insane. I never thought I'd say this of a protoss, but he should switch to terran.

I think would do better as Protoss with his A level micro than switching to Terran, but maybe that's just me. He would make on hell of a terran though.

He, Incontrol, and Demuslim are casting gold, the way they compliment one another into a trifecta of hilarious (while still only talking about they game - HI TASTOSIS) is insane.

 

[Corran Horn]

Corran so rude.

what did I do lol

 

[SamuraiX-]

I actually never remembered PartinG's Blink micro to be this ridiculously OP. I've always seen him as a guy who loves to go for quick HTs in PvT, spread them out to all the dark corners of the map, and then reveal them from the shadows at the most unexpected times to make bio armies vanish.

 

[Aaron]

I agree, but I'd love to see him play as a terran. I bet his stimmed marine control would be godlike.

Flash hesitated too much in that last game. You can't give Parting any time at all.

 

[Lethe82]

Parting is so strong.

 

[SamuraiX-]

That's the PartinG I remember.

My prediction of PartinG winning 4-1 still stands.

Terran so OP gaiz. Please nerf moar, David Kim.

 

[calder]

Wow, most impressive thing I've seen in this tourney was the next-level historic HSC finals knowledge Rotti just busted out.

 

[SamuraiX-]

5 Gate, 1 Base all-in on 24 Probes.

If this works...

 

[Lethe82]

And it almost worked!

That's the PartinG I remember.

My prediction of PartinG winning 4-1 still stands.

Terran so OP gaiz. Please nerf moar, David Kim.

You literally waited until the last minute to be wrong.

 

[SamuraiX-]

You literally waited until the last minute to be wrong.

Please try to keep up.

I even predicted PartinG to be in the final before PartinG vs Losira started.

Deadwing and Foxtrot as the last maps. I feel Flash's chances are still really low. PartinG going for a similar build on Deadwing that he used on Overgrowth. If Flash let's him get up to HT again, I say it's over.

 

[calder]

Whew!

Game 7 wooo

 

[Aaron]

Still expect Parting to take the series, but Flash is just brutal.

 

[SamuraiX-]

This game quickly turned into a standard SCV pull into gg timing for either player into something weeeeiiiiirddd. lol

I honestly thought that initial mass engagement would've been much more one-sided in PartinG's favor considered his great army control and having 2/2 vs 1/1.

Damn well played by Flash. So glad this actually went to 7 after such an anticlimactic quarterfinal/semifinal round.

 

[kasane]

Hide yo paerting flash is here

 

[Lethe82]

My prediction of PartinG winning 4-1 still stands.

Sorry I couldn't hear you over the crowd roaring to going to game 7!

 

[SamuraiX-]

Sorry I couldn't hear you over the crowd roaring to going to game 7!

Well played. ;P

 

[Spl1nter]

HOW

 

[Lethe82]

Just shouted FUCK

that was wow

 

[RumblingRosco]

"HOLY SHIT!"

 

[calder]

Horseshit win, ban Protoss, flash robbed, David Kim pls

 

[RumblingRosco]

Lol the shitty 2-piece trophy fell apart.

 

[markao]

MADNESS


gg, poor trophy, cannot wait for LotV

 

[jasonng]

Everything I knew about Starcraft 2 went out the window with this match.

 

[Syf]

I'm at work what happened!!

 

[SamuraiX-]

Flash played that almost perfectly except at the very end there he did not respect a Protoss with a second base at a gold expansion. As soon as Flash committed to that attack and I noticed PartinG had 800 minerals in the bank, I almost knew it was over.

Very well played by PartinG. I don't think I've ever seen him so ecstatic to take home trophy. He now has four career premier tournament victories. I think this one will definitely stand as his most memorable one for quite a while.

Sick grand final.

Wow. I don't think I've ever seen PartinG open up like this. Talking about his personal life and his mom not recognizing him as a pro-gamer until only recently. This one was for his mom. That's actually beautiful. I love eSports.

I'm at work what happened!!

There are no words that can adequately described Game 7 without actually doing it justice. Get home and get on dat VOD!

 

[jasonng]

Oh god the feels I didnt ask for this

 

[Lethe82]

Well can't hate on Parting after an answer like that. Still a spectacular result for Flash.
