GomTV MSL Season 4 round of 8.18:30 KST, MBCGame channel. VS Mind __________ NaDa(TvT total: 13-8) . . (TvT total: 101-71) (TvT last 10: 6-4) . . (TvT last 10: 4-6) Set1: < Katrina > Set2: < Loki II > Set3: < Blue Storm > Set4: < Zodiac > Set5: < Katrina >
Spoiler containing player introductions: + Show Spoiler +NaDa - The Tornado Terran hasn't been devastating my towns lately. Ever since his last breath in the ShinHan Masters he has been on a downward spiral. Having a mediocre record in both rounds of Proleague he flunked out of group stages of Daum, GomTV 2, GomTV 3, and Ever 2007 Starleagues. He didn't even get into Bacchus OSL. He went 0-3 in his GSI group. The only positive note is his preformance in OSC where he made a late game comeback against SoO. NaDa's play was so abysmal in game one aginst Anytime in the ro 16 that many lost faith in him to advance. However he did. Despite Anytime playing bad in games 2 and 3, NaDa stepped up to the plate elevating his game. His win over Anytime and advancement to the ro8 is the ounce of light shining down into the abyss NaDa has fallen into. NaDa follows the light to climb out but shortly after runs into Mind...
Mind - He is ugly, he is nerdy, he has sub-par mnm Control, he is boring to watch. However, he wins. Mind shocked the progaming world when he defeated both sAviOr and Bisu in bo5 sets to win the GomTV 3 MSL. Since then he has had solid, yet not spectacular, game bolstering a good proleague record and making the ro8 here. Mind's best matchup is TvT which has been tested in a best of 5 series when he demolished Mania last season. Mind is the slight favourite to win this series. Mind is a solid player and I am sure he will play solid once again. The question is will the inconsistent NaDa be able to step up to Mind's level? Results: + Show Spoiler +Mind > Nada Mind > Nada Mind < Nada Mind > Nada
Mind advances to semifinals.
|
I've been very impressed with Mind lately, so my money's on him!
|
Hoping mind will win it
|
|
that was a disturbingly negative player intro for NaDa
|
|
Mind has an amazing game sense paired with solid basic skills. That should not be overlooked. And Nada is + Show Spoiler +in fact a mathematical function: sin( strongest terran player of all time ) .
|
NaDa played incredible in GSI. He would have owned Much but it was on Katrina. He would have won over Jaedong.. unfortunately Blue Storm helped. Vs BoxeR he got cheesed.
If you take NaDa lightly you will well annihilated, not more, not less. I know that I'm a huge fanboy of NaDa but you could clearly see that he is in good shape in these GSI games. My prediction:
NaDa 3-1 Mind
LEE YUN YEOL!
BRING IT MIND, BRING IT! YOU MEET A MONSTER HERE! :D
|
|
|
NaDa is going to wipe the floor with his teammate. GL Mind you'll need it, but it won't matter, you're still going down 0-3. NaDa is taking the title! :-) 101-71... Thats what I call a true champion.

i really hope that nada will win this. simply because i like nada and don't like mind. for me mind is still some sort of medicore player like ggplay who won a starleague without knowing the reasons for the victory.
go nada!
|
Even though its TvT, I'm really excited about this match up.
And violetak, I understand you're a nada fan, so am I. But Mind is the favorite here. He's been playing a LOT better than Nada recently. I voted for Mind. But I actually want Nada to win. I just don't think it will happen. Mind looked amazingly solid in his game against Hwasin. He had a perfectly executed/prepared opening build and flawless mid game. Hwasin was behind from the beggining and Mind didn't make a single mistake to let him get back in it. The only succesful drop Hwasin got off was because minds units were being used to rape the shit out of Hwasins main.
Tyranid, you are the WORST hyper I've ever seen on this site. You're supposed to make both players sound GOOD so people are interested in the games. Not make them both sound like shit. Make sense?

Nada is a fucking beast, in a good day he can beat anyone, including Mind.

No doubt Mind is the solid favorite by far. But NaDa will still kick his ass :-)

NaDa's capable of kicking anyone's ass, the question lies in whether it's a good day today

nada will win that's tvt guys, who can doubt nada in this? even such a nada hater like me thinks mind will fall.

You can watch this stream via GomPlayer, or YaoYaun's Tvants MBCGame Stream. YY's stream is generally about 30 seconds behind Gom, but was working earlier for the MST.
Lets go NaDa. I believe.

Actually I voted for Nada over Anytime. And of course nada can beat anyone. Hes the best starcraft player to ever play the game. But like I said, I don't think it will happen this time Because Mind is playing really well. Control the fanboyism.

Sexy 14 cc opening by Nada. Worked out really well for him and I think its an excellent choice on this map. Maybe Mind will counter with a quick drop. Mind has gone standard 12rax/gas.
|
Mind adds his cc and starts a vult before add on. Nada responds by starting a bunker in front of his semi wall.
|
Russian Federation4333 Posts
Both players scouting each other. Nada starting his cc just as minds has finished. Mind chasing nadas scv with a rine and has walled of the front with a bunker.
|
Addon / no vult for Nada. He starts a second fact just as Mind's rax floats to scout it. Nada scares it away with 2 rines of doom.
|
Russian Federation4333 Posts
Nada's early vultur is repelled by the bunker. Nada now adding a 2nd fact and researching at his 1st's machine shop. Stream dies. . .
|
Mind has 1 fact wtih an addon spining..aha its mins. And he mines up the highground near nadas base. Perhaps hell use the mines to delay nada while he takes a quick 3rd. Lol nada moves out with 1 tank, and then runs it back as its in red health after taking a mine.
|
gah crashed
|
Interesting Nada starts 2 facts before a starport. He has a small tank/gol army pushing to his high ground nat. He scans and clears the rest of the mines. Mind moving out with pure tanks...5 of them.
|
Russian Federation4333 Posts
Mind with 2 tanks, 3 golies coming out of his main, clearing Nada's mines. Advancing toward Nada but then goes back. Nda has 4 factories, 2 with addon.
|
nada is yellow mind is red foreverwar
|
Ah mind is just taking his 2nd nat. Nada doing the same. Mind also has 4 facts. No starports that I can see yet. Nada has 10 or so vults now. And 2 shops spinning.
|
Cheers for the reports, keep them up guys!
|
10 fully upd vults moving into minds main!!! THEY RUN BY EVRYTHING TO THE UNDEFENDED NAT AND PLANT A MASSIVE MINE FIELD. AWESOME MOVE!
|
|
Russian Federation4333 Posts
Mind with a batch of vults, about 8, at his main. They move out. Stream is fucking laggy! Mind rushes vults inside of mada's base mining up. He now is decimating scv at Nada's nat. Nada eventually clears but looses many scv and hasto run with remaining ones.
|
Mind loses a LOT of scvs off screen and the vults continue to rack up the kills. Mind mustve lost at least 12. Probably more. Game clenching move. Mind looking to launch a counter.But nada has perfect tank set up and scouts it right away with avult. Mind loses tanks.

Stream dies again. Nada got really hurt by those vultures. Mind has set up a center 9 expansion. Nada pressures it with tank gol byt Mind has formitable siege tank defence there.
|
Starport finally up for Nada, hes starting a ebay as well. Mind dangerously low on scvs. Minds ebay is finally done.

Nada manages to take out some tanks from the high ground but hes horribly behind. Mind starting his 4th base at the top mid. He has 2 dropships out. Nada has a gol army moving out to take out the bases at the top of themap. Mind looks to be trying to stop them with 2 dropships. Mind cancels one of the ccs. 4 tanks droped and nada barely takes them out with 3 weak gols left. Another 4 tank drop stop them though. Mind 1 base up but nada is starting another base at the mid right. However mind stops that with 1 vult
|
Russian Federation4333 Posts
Mind red, Nada yellow. Players just positioning with tanks atm however, mind has 2 dsips. Mind drops 4 tanks at the 10 expo to protect it. Nada clears with goli. another drop there again by mind. 3 siege tanks. Nada's golies die.

Nada FINALLY starting a starpot. Mind has a sci facility up already. Mind ranges a few of nadas tanks near his nat. But mind loses some. The 1 vult at mid right has 4 kills now and is still firing at the cc. Aha nada finally kills the the vult. Hes guarding the cc ith 3 gols and a tank.
|
and somehow nada still loses lol
|
Lol Mind drops on nadas main, he does really good damage dispite losing 3 dropships to 3 well placed turrets. nada tries to stop it with his whole available army + all his main scvs but Minds army destroys it easily. GG.

Nada was horribly slow at running his nat scvs away back to the more safe position at his main.

Ok they are replaying Mind's vulture harrass. MY GOD was that nasty. 242143215 vults attacking scv's with Nada's troops far back behind a minefield.

Vulture raid gave Mind the win in that one. NaDa got manhandled.

Both players start their facts at the same time. Mind nicely stops nadas scv from enterting his base with a scv of his own on the ramp. A marine takes its place soon after.

Gas up for both. Building factories now. Mind chasing Nada's scv out with marine.

|

Vulture out for Mind, kills scouting scv and now heads out.
|
Both players start ccs, minds is faster, but his second fact is slower. He most likely pulled more scvs off gas.
|
Russian Federation4333 Posts
Mind transferring scv to his outer expo. Mind a bit late with his expo, transferring scv 10 seconds later. Tnk guarding Nada's expo. 2 tanks and a vult out for Mind and. . . . stream dies again. . .
|
Mind partially blocking of his choke with a depot interesting. 1 rine chases nadas rax away...slowly. Nada going 2 fact armory. Hes moving out with 2 tanks and 2 vults but minds scv sees them comming. 3 vults now. Mind has 3 tanks and 3 vults of his own though. Mind also starting a starport. 2 gols join the marine firing at nada's rax and take it down. A wraith moves out across the map. Nadas staport is also done.
|
Nada laid mines on the highground near minds base but mind took them out with no damage. Dropship out/ 3rd and 4th facts started for mind.
|

Dship for mind. Nada with a ship of his own now. Loading up. Looks like both are going for dropship warfare.

Nada also has his dropship now. Mind looking to harass but turns around. Hes also looking to expand to his high ground 2nd nat. And he does, nada does the same, and a little earlier.

Minds one wraith looking around. Mind has 3 drophips against nadas 2. Both players have no taken their back bases yet . Lol, also both players tried to drop there. OHHH Mind gets off a HUGE 3 dropshp drop in the back of nadas main. Right by his mins. Nada clears it but not before losing units/scvs and most importantly, 2 dropships.
|
Russian Federation4333 Posts
Mind dropping nada's main. No troops thre. Nada runs his scvs fast though. Not many lost. Nada now drops on the drop and clears. Scvs come back. Great job by Nada. Mind loading up again. A battle in the midde, mind runs back.
|
Nice dropship use by mind. Drops right on nadas unguarded tanks. But nadas reenforcements handle it. Mind looks to beahead. Oh great move. Mind neutralizes nadas 2nd nat gas. Minds ahead in gas now.
|
mind is playing so many miles better than nada
|
Nada looking to clear the presence stoping his gas. Nada does so easily but not before losing a dropship and a few units.
|
|
Oh, wow, I found it. Nice one Poor M2
|
3 dropshipson the move but a nicely placed scv spots them.

This is a really good game so far. Both players taking their rear base, mind's is first and has 3 turrets there.
|
Russian Federation4333 Posts
Mind expanding to his protected AND to the 5 oclock. Armies just roaming the map, not much action. Nad expanding to the 10.
|
Both players have 5 dropships now. Nada looking to take the bottom right while Mind looks to take top left. Nadas scv building the cc is killed though. Delaying it. A small army is destoryed by nada, but Mind managed to snipe a dropship.
|
I wonder if M2 is married with that girlfriend of his since then. Or doing 3-some with the dog? Hehehe.
Anyway, back to topic, Mind seems to be ahead to me (secure it for my Liquibet, thanks )
|
Russian Federation4333 Posts
A battle, Nada snipes a dropship but looses more units than Mind. Mind drops at his 5 to defend form Nada's army nearby.
|
5 dropships moving out. Mind expanding EVERYWHERE Ohh nada great move anticipating a drop and droping his units there just in time to stop it.
|
Mind with 7 dropships and a fairly nice sized ground army. Nada has 7 ships as ell but a smaller ground army. Still a close game though.
|
|
The players divide the map. A big drop at nadas bottom right, but nadas counter drop stops it cold.
|
nada preparing for bc's? +2 armories going up
|
Zurich15227 Posts
If this goes on we can hope for BC standoff which NaDa will win, of course.
|
Russian Federation4333 Posts
Nada has the 9 center and 10 up and running. Mind has the fresh 6 oclock and a lot of defence there. Players just macroing so far. Shit I got confused. Nada has 5 and Mind has 10. Mind drops Nada's 5 but Nada clears.
|
Starports and a physics lab for nada. Nosign of one yet for Mind. Mind needs to make something happen or starts bcs of his own.
|
Ahaa mind starting 2 more armories. Looks like he will be preparing bcs himself soon. Annnd there go 3 starports.
|
Russian Federation4333 Posts
12 is up and running for Mind. The players took virtually every expo. Now Nada adding 2 more starports. BC action???
|
|
it lags just for fp of mind
so damn lame
|
Its possible that Mind will be playing to counter the bcs with wraiths. But I hope not Mind has more of the map but looks a little sloppy recently with his units. Neverless he preforms a powerful drop near nadas bc production . Taking out a starport and a gas. Mind is fucking awesome at tvt
|
OOOO ouch. Nada screws upa drop and loses a bunch of dropships, doing very little if any damge to the setup near the bc starports and the now destoryed gas at nadas 2nd highground nat.
|
Russian Federation4333 Posts
Mind with a big drop near 3 center. Takes out a starport of nad there. Nda having trouble clearing that drop. Loosing some scv that got caught going through. Mind also adding ports. We could see mass BC here.
|
Zurich15227 Posts
FP view tells you everythin. Mind has like 75% of the map
|
3 bcs out for nada. A strong drop at noaddas bottom right! Nada does have the dropships to stop it! The base will fall. Mind in clear command now.
|
ggs out
mind clearly playing better
|
Nada showing the power of 3 bcs Meanwhile Mind rains death all over nadas bc starports ...nada ggs. Nada looks shakin. This mind kid is too good?
|
|
I'd like to take this opportunity to call out violetak and his 3-0 Nada over mind prediction. VioletAk, your thoughts?
|
Russian Federation4333 Posts

Bisu was in a slump when he reached last season msl? i think not. I think he was the most dominant player at the time...

Mind ready to proxy? His scv is just standing above his minonly. Yes he is, he is now building a fact there.
|
Go NaDa! kill that ugly face!
|
if boxer was in nada's shoes now, he was going to try something out of the protocols)
|
I think Mind is the strongest Terran player atm, much better than Sea result-wise
|
Nada opening 2 fact which mind instantly sees with an scv. After some nice manuevring the scv escapes alive. Mind starts a cc. His rax is already in the air. 1 vult and 1 rine out for mind. Nada going 2 fact no shop vults. Interesting. Mind will have a small period of weakness. Lest see if nada can exploit it before mind gets enough tanks. Nada has an armory up.
|
Russian Federation4333 Posts
Mind scouts nada's base. Mind is building cc at nat. Nda's got a vulture out. Mind kills Nada's clouting scv with it. I am not sure if Nada saw anything.
|
Mind is most definitely the best terran right now.
|
Nada starting 2 starport. OLD SCHOOL AS FUCK.
|
Russian Federation4333 Posts
Ok now Nada does come up with 2 vultures and a rine. He sees the proxy but is repelled by tank and vult there. The and rine try to run in but die.
|
Nada also has a cc almost done. He gave up quickly on early pressure. A very wise move.
|
Russian Federation4333 Posts
Nada is building expo cc and 2 starports. Mind building one starport as well along with an armory.
|
I smell 0:3 sry NaDa, even though I love you
|
|
Mind has essentially the same path as last season.
ro16 + ro8: Terrans, two champions (oov, nada), and two nobodies (mania, shine) ro4: Zerg champion (savior, jaedong) Finals: Protoss, (bisu, kal/jangbi)
|
Its not exactly a proxy Hes just building them on the high ground so they start at a better position. Mind already sieging the min line of Nada. Nada forces the tank back with a wraith. But this realllly sucks for nada as hes forced to give away his plan. At least partially. Mind with a huge advantage so far.
|
Russian Federation4333 Posts
Mind is advaning and is at the BS sweet spot. One tank at the sweet spot shooting up scvs. lone wraith hitting Mind's tanks in the middle. Mind now has 5 tanks there. He re sieges the sweet spot. Nada with 2 wraiths now but mind is rallying gols.
|
Russian Federation4333 Posts
Scvs re not mining at the expo. 3 tanks at the sweet spot for Mind. Nad has 4 wraiths trying to take out thefloating rax that gives mind vision. Nada cloaks wraiths! Mind is pused back . Holy shit nada with several wriths in Mind's main just picked off a dship.
|
O GOD, drop ship ferrying plz nada notice this
|
Mind forced to run as cloaked wraiths catch mind completely off guard. Nada catching back up. Nada also picks off an empty dropship that mind was attempting to hide. Mind is safe now as he has a few turrets up and his acad is done. Mind moving back out to the nadas nat. OHHH lookslike 1 dropship did get hidden! Mind is ferrying troops into the bottomof minds base. Nadas wraiths are completely out of position!
|
Nada quickly snipes a dropship and a tank. Then rolls the harass with mass tanks. Mind did his dmage though and then drops the nad. Nada handles that instantly. Nada looks to be AHEAD now! Pretty nice game.

Mind now ferrying units into Nada's main via far cliff. Nda does not see. Mind now with several tankgoli sieging up and attacking Nda's natural gas. Nada does NOT have many units. Drop dealing some damage. Nad finally clears with ground. Another drop by mind over the nat minline but it is swiftly dispatched.

Nadas wraith tank + a few gol army greatly out numbers minds. However nada gets cocky and charges head on into minds smaller army, not cost effective. As a result the game is back at dead even. Both players start ccs in their respective corners. Mind with a NICE goliath drop at nadas nat gets a lot of scvs but loses the dropship + all the gols to 2 wraiths and tanks.
|
Russian Federation4333 Posts
Nada has now built up quite a ground force. Nada advances them through the middle and pushes Mind back from there. Mind has a floating ebay. Nada expanding to 10, mind to 5. Mind drops 4 gols over Nadas nat minline again killing a couple of scv's but once again cleared fast. Mind now taking a group of scv's toward the middle and engages pure siege tank there with tank gol support. Nadas tanks unsiege and run back.

Its his weakest mu, ok, but its still sitting at 58% and is hottttt right now

Mind is better than Flash imo. Despite Flash's great showing at GSI. But Flash is definitely the other possible canidate. You could make a strong case for both.
Mind tried to break a strong tank push/contain in the middle with his owntanks + scvs but it worked out horribly for him. Nada snipes another dropship and then kills 4 gols with tanks at the cost of 2 wraiths. Nada playing very well this game. Hes starting his min only. Mind boldlytaking the bottom expansion. But its defended with a wall of tanks.
|

OOh Mind steals Nada's gas at 10. Nada with a lot of tanks (14ish) in the middle again. Looks like tank/wraith for him. Oh btw both plyers have their min only didn't mention.

Mind has also expanded to 6. THat base is running. Nada sieges up from his main and is hitting outlying turrets at 6. Nada is building cc at 12 but is struggling to keep that spot. Mind pressuring it.

Nada uses his rax to spot for 2 tanks which take out turrets. Mind comes in though and drops on the high ground. Crushing the 2 tanks below. Nada taking the top base though.

12oclock is fucked for nada
|
Mind with his huge dropship advantage ferries troops up to nadas 12 o clock base and crushes it. Forcing it to lift and fly away.
|
Russian Federation4333 Posts
Players dividing the map. Nada has established 12 BUT Mind mass drops it with reinforcements form units below the cloff. Nada lifts off the CC and runs remaining scvs. Nada being passive, Mind making all the moves.
|
nada again goes bc too early imo, in spite of him playing catchup with bases (at least gas-wise) this game
|
Mind looks to be back ahead in the game. But not by much. Great game so far. Ohhh 6 dropships drop the top left base. They kill a LOT of scvs but are taken out by nadas army. nada does kill FIVE mind dropships though. A big blow. Maybe this will allow nada to take back the much needed 12 o clock base.
|
Russian Federation4333 Posts
Mind with 8 dropships attacking 10, Nada clears quite well. Wow wriths pick off like 5 dships when they came in and as they ran back to base.
|
middles taken by mind with a huge attack
|
Mind with a powerful army plowing through the weak contain in the middle as most of nadas tanks are towards the top. Now nada has 2 fronts to defend, AND less units. Nada definitely did switch to bcs too quickly. He didnt even have his turret grid in place to deal with minds superior dropship count. As a result minds dropships have just now shut down nadas top left base. All the scvs die there.
|
Russian Federation4333 Posts
Oh what the fuck!! Mind has NEVER TOOK HIS MIN ONLY. His advantage is not that great. Nada is now making BC out of his ports. Golis pick off one BC near map center. Sloppy sloppy. Mind again dropping 10. This time he takes out the scvs and forces a cc lift.
Man Mind doing all the agression.
|
Mind has fantastic macro/multitask. Mind with a BIG drop + ground attack combo. It dominates the tanks there and takes out some bcs as well. Nada basically only has 4 bcs and 2 tanks active right now Mind is outplaying nada despite nada having a strong early game.
|
Russian Federation4333 Posts
A battle at mid. Nada has like 5 Bc there. Mind comes in with golis in ships and drops right under the BC however, Nada has siege tanks close and the golis fall back.
|
Russian Federation4333 Posts
Mind with a physics lab of his own. Could be going BC as well.
|
Nada finally clears the 3 tanks stopping nada from taking the 6 o clock base with bcs. But mind has 6 or 7 dropships and a land army. Soo strong.
|
Mind beautifulally navigating around nadas turrets to doom drop the poorly defended nat + starports. However mind only had a few gols so bcs will handle it. Not before a starport and bc go down though.
|
constant dropship harass, nada can't defend with just tanks and bc's, its almost gg
|
Russian Federation4333 Posts
Mind drops Nada's natural. He is in control of this game. Nada does eventually take it out with BC. But another drop by Mind at the 12. Mind is crazy. Nada CANT BREATHE.
|
Mind clears the turrets at 12 with tanks from the low ground then levels the cc with multiple drops.
|
nada is playing so shitty, i dont want to watch it
|
Russian Federation4333 Posts
12 cc is destroyed. Nada will probably loose the game at this point. A bc is killed off at 12. Nada with ome bc left, not making any more of them.
|
Another huge army appears for mind and the dropships are loaded again...as Nada clumsily loses a bc for nothing. Dropships moving out, where will they go? They drop in the middle to clear out some turrets. Nada moves his smaller tank army back down to defend 12. Hes desperate for 12.
|
In fact he has TWO ccs there lol. Minds dropships moving there again. They drop and kill the scvs building the first cc. Theres one in the air though lol. 1 bc almost goes down. The first cc is canceld. Tank war! Nada STILL cant take the base!
|
The 1 bc has been repaired 3 scvs desperately repairing the cc while tanks shell it from out of range of nadas tanks.
|
oh my god dude. please put the tanks so you can protect the damn CC next time nada. :[
|
Russian Federation4333 Posts
Mind drops 12 again. Nada trying to reestablish it, about to lose his last bc. NAda will jnot hold on to it. Mind is just dominating with drops. Now a lrge ass army for Mind in the middle. Looks like scvs will spearhead. a group of scvs with the army.
|
HUGE scvtanks push comming. Mind doesnt get far though, but only loses the scvs. He realizes nada simply has 2 many tanks. So instead mind drops the poorly defended main.
|
Nada sends tanks to handle it though.
|
Russian Federation4333 Posts
MIND comes in. SCVS ARE SPEARHEADING. However they all die and Mind does not push far. He drops on Nada's main though with 15 ish tank gol. More units bout to be dropped at the main.
|
OK they are saying how nada can win if he can defend until mind runs out of mineral.
|
Russian Federation4333 Posts
The whole fucking game it's been Mind dropping and Nada defending. Ok Mind's 6 has ran out. If Nada cn jold on to 12 (FOR ONCE LOL) he will have the econ dvantage. Mind;s units entrenced in Nada's main.
|
An extremely close game. Nada is pure tank. While mind has a larger army, but Nada has FINALLY taken the 12 expo.
|
OK BIG PUSH MIDDLE BY MIND
|
Russian Federation4333 Posts
And they are being reinforced as Nada just lets them sit there. Nada with about 20 tanks close to the dropped units. Mind's units outnumber Nada's there imo.
|
HUGE ATTACK BY MIND! ALL HIS SCVS VULTS TANKS AND GOLS EVERYWHERE. THEY TAKE THE HIGH GROUND AND THE 2 BCS FALL!
|
Russian Federation4333 Posts
MIND WITH A HUGE PUSH IN THE MID. n army of scv, VULT tank, and all sorts of shit. Mind storming into Nada;s min only.
|
OMG NADA CAN WIN THIS ROFL
|
Now mind only needs to shut down the base at 6! But will he have enough resources to do it!? Mind still has a large army at the bottom of nadas base.
|
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh f5f5f5f5f5f5f5f5f5f5f5

nada tries to dry him out?
|
Russian Federation4333 Posts
Why vultures though, is he Mind on res?? Mind's army at Nada's nat is not moving. He fucked up by not moving them as well as doing that huge ass push at mid. He would sort of flank Nada as his d wouldbe split.
|
Really awesome game. Must see vod in my opinion. Even if youre not a big tvt fan. A HUGE DROP SCVS + VULTS SWEEP IN. NADAS HAS ONLY SIX TANKS LEFT TO DEFEND HIS CRUCIAL 12 EXPO. NADA DEFENDS THE BEST! HES ALIVE.. .HES ALIVE!

Y the fuck were mind's units just sitting in Nada's main. He ferried them out anyway. . .

Nada has reenforced the 12 position with at least 8 tanks. Mind is almost mined out! mind catches 5 or so tanks in the open. Mind moving towards nadas nat/main. THERE ARE TOO MANY TANKS THERE! Mind is stoped again!

I was like. Nada - there is no way you are going to keep that 12 o'clock. Mind just pounded, and pounded, and dropped, and hammered the 12. But Nada saved it. And in the end that base was the game winner for him.
|
Holy shit. That was a great game. Seriously, I have nothing else to say.
|
Please give credit to mind as well. So many T players play extremely gay from that situation, and instead of attacking beautifully like mind did. Will simply sit there and wait. Thank you nada AND mind for giving us such an awesome game.

I can't stress enough how brilliant it was for nada to mostly abandone bcs and switch to pure tank. SUCH smart play. Had he tried to continue to pump bcs instead of tanks he would have lost easily.

TEN MINUTES

The best part is, if it was any of us, we, as nada, would have GG at atleast a few points..
Every once and awhile a game like that is played, and all the games that I play after it, I don't GG until it's absolutely over. It's so inspirational.

This game was WWII Eastern Front.
And 12 was Leningrad.

Mind lost all his income, couldnt push through Nada's base at top. Once Nada took that base at top Mind was GG.
He could only produce Vultures against Nada's tanks, no chance.

I can'T wait to watch this VOD :D I love great TvT game

Game 4 comming up. Can Nada carry the momentum from the last game into another win? Or will Mind tighten up his late game and take the series. 5 4 3 2 1. START.
Mind fucking white, Nada fucking Yellow Mind is Red, now...I'm pretty sure . And is at 3. Nada at 9.

A depot is placed at the northern part of the wide choke to narrow it further.

Nadas fact is done, hes looing to presure with 1 rax 1 vult and is now starting a starpot. A risky opening. If this fails to do damage. Mind will be sooo far ahead.

Fast port for Nada. He has not even fe'ed yet.

Mind shows GREAT control and blocks + kills a vult with scvs + 1 rine in a bunk.
|
Salvation Base as a term for that ftw.
If only because we've had NaDa's Salvation army.

Holy shit. Nada come in with a vult, goes past the bunker at nat choke, and get SURROUNDED by scv, barely gets out, and dies shortly after. Nada now feing.
|
Add on up for the port + nada is starting his cc. Perhaps nada will go for an early vult drop. OHH MIND 2 STARPORT. THIS IS BIG. He will have a huge advantage over nadas one starport. Ohh nada starting a second starport himself. The dropship is going to pick up 3 unupgraded vults. Lets see how much damage he can do.
|
Russian Federation4333 Posts
And Mind is adding 2 starports of his own. Interesting.
|
Russian Federation4333 Posts
Nada using his fast pord for a dship. Now dropping 4 vults into Mind's main! Mind is slow to react and looses several scv.
|
OH WAIT . The slow vults have mines. A marine wraith and tank take care of the vults but not before 6 or so scvs + 2 rines go down. Minds 1 wraith kills a marine but then dies to nadas 2wraiths. Cloak started for mind. The game pretty much dead even now. Minds bo advantage has been nullified nicely by nada.
|
Nadas 4 wraiths take out a tank and run. Mind moving out with 4 cloaked wraiths. He gets a few shots and runs. Nada already starting his 2nd cc at the high ground 2nd nat.
|
Russian Federation4333 Posts
Mind now pumping put wraith. Nada has 2 starports. Funny both players going wraith. Nada with 4 wraiths in the middle of the map is attacking Mind;s pure tank group. Tanks run back.
Holy, Mind with cloaked wraiths coming toward Nada, not attacking though. Both players with cloaked wraith in fact.
|
Mind up to 4 facts already. Nada still at 2 while mind has not even thought about starting his 2nd nat.
|
Mind will need to do good damage with his first attack or nada will be firmly ahead. Nada just now finishing his 2nd fact and starting his 3rd.
|
Nada has 4 tanks defending . There are positioned well. MIND CANT DO DAMAGE SO FAR.
|
Russian Federation4333 Posts
Nada has center 9. Mind still on 2 base. Mind however adding goliath to combat Nada's wraiths. Nada with many tanks though.
|
|
BUT mind does have 4 dropships built and semi hidden. It may be possible that he could launch a verystrong wraith +dropship semi all in attack. Here come 5 dropships! The wraiths are dancing ... THE WRAITHS OF NADA ARE OUT OF POSITION AND MIND LANDS ON THE MAIN. His tanks are in range of the main cc which dies AND the 2nd nat min line. Nada manages to clear the drop but he took HUGE loses. Mind in the meantime has taken his 2nd nat. AND FUCKING REDROPED THE BASE. Jesus Mind is good.

Mind looks ready to drop. He drops Nada's main with mostly gol and chases away Nada's wraiths. Wow Mind with a lot of units in Nada;s main. This is very bad for Nada. Now mind's wraiths re getting some free shots at Nada's pure tank d.
Mind expanding to center 3 as well.
|
NOW MIND DROPING AGAIN ON THE LIGHTLY DEFENDED 2ND NAT. Its going down. Mind is soo good. Its unreal. I cant believe he managed to redrop AGAIN and take his 2nd nat. Hes also taking the 12 main.
|
mind 3 bases, adding 2 more, basically a gfg by one doom drop -_-
|
Nada did barely manage to save his main cc by the way.
|

Mind with a drop at 9 expo now. Forces a lift. Nada's main is safe though.
And now my stream is dying.
|
Oh nevermind that was simply his 2nd nat cc floated back to his main
|
5 mind dropships sneaking across the bottom. Where wil they land?
|
The answer: NO where. They don't see an opening so they return.
|
Mind taking 6 now and has nicely placed turrets to spot/intercept drops. Mind up to 8 or so facts already. What a beast.
|
Nada has 8 or so gols +2 turrets looking to take his island base about his nat. Suprised mind hasnt taken his considering he has a lot more dropships than nada.
|
lol nada lets a starport burn down
|
|
Ok mind has now taken his island nat, as wel as EVERY FREAKING CC SPOT ON THE MAP ALMOST
|

Strean back finally. Mind dominating again. Dropping all the time, out expanding Nda as well. I think he will win the game.
Mind is just mass expanding. Bases going up at 12, 6, 6 nat, crazy.
|
"every freaking spot on the map" is a clue as to how far nada is behind
|
Holy shit mind is startinga few more facts for a total of 11 or so
|

Oh and a cc at 4 oclock island. Mind kinda overextending himself. 6 Bases for him in total compared to Nada's 3.
Knowing Nada's passivity this series though, who knows maybe he wont even get attacked at the expos.
|
Nada kills the 2 turrest blockign his cc from the second nat as nada moves to take it Mind attacks him with a huge drop + ground army however nada stops the attack lol. Blue storm all over again? I dont think so but that reminded me of that game;)

Mind dropping and ground advancingto 9 expo. This is just a matter of time befor Mind squashes Nada.
Nada has not been mining at the 9 expo forever his CC is alive there though.
|
Well tyranid , he has more dropships and well placed turrets so it wouldnt really matter if he did.
|
Beautiful drop from mind to counter nadas attempt to take out the low ground tanks near nadas 2nd nat. Nada STILL cant get that base online.
|
nada is so dead its painful to watch
|
Nada has 6 dropships now. But about half the facts of mind. Mind really could secure the win easily by going bcs now. Lets see if he does.
|
nada let mind get way too far ahead, 8 base vs 3 base now....
|
Nadas attempt to break minds pressure from the low ground is crushed horribly as mind has almost twice the army there.
|

Nada with 4 dships going somewhere? Fucking christ Mind has, check this
: main, nat, 12, 12 nat, 12 center, 6, 6 nat, 4 islnd, 9 center.
NINE BASES. Game folks.

Oh no why do I have to miss the only game NaDa wins....
|
Mind starting 3 more facts at 12 for a total of 15 or so. Now a HUGE drop takes out the rest of nadas army at the high ground 2nd nat as well as the cc. Nada making a desperation drop ath the high ground 2nd nat near 12. Mind crushes it so easy its almost scary. His army was about 4 times as big. Nada immediately GGS.
|
Oh GOD that was BRUTAL. Nada TOTALLY outplayed.
|
I hate Mind because he's ugly, but that was some really fucking impressive play.
|

OMG NADA IS DROPPING. he drops near 12 center but mind rapes him there. Mind rapes his 9 center as well
Nada just got flattened like a pancake. he GGs.
Mind advnces to get raped by Jaedong in the semifinals.
|
Mind made a statement that game
|
why do these veteran players get easily beaten nowadays compare to their old good days. is it because of the apm speed getting slower or their old strategy is not effective anymore or the new players are too good already ?
|
Impressive play from Mind. NaDa was quite passive and mild throughout the whole series. :/
|
Mind just played better. NAda overextended himself with the third expo. Mind quickly transitioned into ground army and used his 2 starports to land a big drop on Nada's main. Nada didn't even have a clue as to the drop coming. From there... Mind won through pure macro.

i guess its a mix of both and add to that the fact that they r very accomplished already and dont really push themselves to the limit anymore.
|
Nada lost his mojo
Even the game Nada won it seemed like he was about to cave in with every drop push from Mind. Despite the win Nada came off worse off. In the last game Nada just wasn't in it.

Unfortunately he is about to run into a steaming locomotive that is Jaedong of 2008.
|
Mind's multitasking is very good. He's always attacking / expoing / transfering scvs. Very quick player.

Nada won shinhan masters in 2007, won 2. shinhan in 2006, was runner up in 3. shinhan 2006-2007. That does not really translate into "easily" beaten, unless by "nowadays" you mean today.
But still, the question should rather be, why would you expect players to be perfect and keep up with every new player, map and strategy for the rest of his life? Those are some expectations.

nevertheless i have to admit, that his tvt is top-notch at the moment... similar to the way i build my liquibet on people voting with their "hearts" for dead people edit: mwuahahaha Oh ya Bisu was really slumping...riiight. You're full of shit. Mind is just a really good player without a lot of charisma. Get used to it. umm, i don't mind mind at all, i wasn't totally agreeing with the post i quoted, so yep mind is hot right now, and nada's not - no doubt about it.

Will Nada's pupil be as great as the one Boxer had?
|
Oh wells. I hope Jaedong crushes Mind.

*puts on flame-suit* They should produce great games but I hardly think either one will crush the other. They are both too good. It will come down to maps.

oh gosh...blue storm is the only map that favors zerg in ZvT. Loki II x2 and Zodiac are pretty bad.

I can't believe I'm saying this, but go Mind. Spread Jaedong all across Zodiac and Loki II./

oh wow, and mind had two wins versus savior on blue storm in the last MSL semis
|
gogo mind, ill support you against jaedong !! Even though your fan-base is mostly ( or all) made of mens, we trust you !

That's cuz savior is retarded on maps that favor zerg but owns on maps that don't.

His style of play doesn't exactly take advantage of the qualities that make blue storm advantageous for zerg.

No Nada...I hate you mind,fuck.
|
Nooo Nada
|
No Nada
But .. in all honesty. minds just great
|
Hell, Nada still impressed me.
|
|
Now its' only Jaedong left that I like. Go rape GadgetTerran!

YESSSS
we get to see Jaedong vs. Mind!!! (been looking forward to this ever since Jaedong got moved out of Mind's MSL group)

Don't lose faith! if you look at the games, it's usually a really good T against a really mediocre Z
Jaedong is 1-0 on Loki II and 3-1 on Zodiac (1-1 against terran)
|
fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck!!!!!!!!!
|
Is Mind-Jaedong the real final?XD
|
|
bleh this was expected oh well go mind!
|
|
That was not NaDa, as nearly everyone who watched the games would agree. He let Mind call all of the shots and you can accuse me of taking the win away from Mind but that's not my intention.
[ReD]NaDa will come back.
|
while i love nada i was pulling for mind i want to see him defend his title, and i really want to see if that tvz we saw v savior is still in him
|
NaDa now got a seed to season 5
Nada will come back!

whoever advances I think Kal will win it- it gets more and more difficult in our days for a player to be powerhouse for long periods of time, so I suppose we will have more and more one-title-wonder-players but in fact all three of them (I mean Kal,Mind and Jaedong) are doing very good...damn, there are so many solid players right now. GO FLASH
|
I love both of these players but voted by heart and lost some liquibet points, but I don’t Mind. Mind vs Kal in final!
|
Mind gave Nada what he wanted.
Nada looked disappointed afterwards though, probably because Mind is still inexperienced.
|
My glimpse of hope for having NaDa in the finals has been wiped out... thanks to Mind! crap!
Im gonna bet my balls that its going to be a Jaedong vs Kal Finals. Seeing Mind's games in the Ro16 and Ro8, he doesn't have much technique, his play is very predictable. No doubt he is very good in standard play and heavy macro, but with the rate Jaedong is going, I just don't see Mind in the Finals this season.
This time, he can't play "mind games" on our man Jaedong like what he did to his mentor NaDa.
|
i seriously thought mind was gonna lose game 2 but he lost game 3 0_0
|
I think NaDa is really awesome but yay for Mind. Mind has really grown on me and I like him way more than Flash. In the last MSL he beat oOv, sAviOr, and Bisu. Now this MSL he has taken down NaDa and is playing Jaedong next. This guy is the new legend killer.
|
Mind is gonna beat Jaedong 3-1 or 3-2 ima guess that his gonna lose on game 2 or/and 3 but gonna rape on everything afterwards
|
This feels like Oov vs. BoxeR all over again :@
|
Thanks for writeup. I was rooting for Nada though
|
Mind is SO damn good right now...if he can beat Jaedong, then we will know who the true champion is.
|
o I didn't realize that Jaedong vs Mind is OSL vs MSL champs! That is kickass
|
Mind is becoming a fucking monster He´s beating every single fucking bw legend I really can see him beating Jaedong, even though Jaedong might be the favorite
|
Im 100% sure that Mind is gonna rape Jaedong and to me why ppl say Mind isnt good against zerg is because his short games are bad but his long games own, like game 2 against savior that was really lame by Mind but game 1,4,5 were pure ownage by him and oncee he beats Jaedong his gonna rape Kal or Jangbi :D and gonna be the MSL Season 4 Champion then he will become the next bonjwa :D

i have to agree 100% i must say when i saw him against oov i was like meh no chance, he won, i saw him against memory i was like meh who cares, he won, he fought savior no chance in hell, he won, i thought it was a fluke, against bisu i didnt even bother to watch i just assumed it be nother easy bisu pvt rape as he did hwasin then he won. This will be a battle of msl and osl champions and in all honesty the winner of this is 90% sure to take this msl and the winner will be mind i dont think hes ever lost a bo5 he just came out of nowhere a ghost just like rommel lol rommel terran ftw

|
