I've considered NesTea the best Zerg in the world since he won his first championship, and there hasn't been convincing evidence that someone has ever overtaken him since that time.

I remember this one game nestea played against mvp I think. I'm not completely sure but anyway nestea held off the initial marinetank push but then he expanded twice and made nothing but drones and lost. He lost a certain victory game. I haven't seen that from Idra.

is this guy legitimately stupid or is he trolling

how about that one game vs. huk where idra had a CERTAIN VICTORY NO QUESTION ABOUT IT and he ragequit out of a game due to hallucinated voidrays

pretty sure that would top any blunder that nestea has ever made combined

I think his recent IPL win puts IdrA in a position to take the throne,not just the win coming back from 2:0 against toss. But he's not there yet and neither is NesTea. The throne is empty.

Win gsl twice. Not good enough. Oh the standards of a bronze player.-

He might have won GSL, but beating Inca in that condition was nothing special. Actually felt bad that NesTea had such a walkover of a series, he must have been extremely bored.

IdrA is currently 18-0 in BoX series matches, which is a good streak imo.

So honestly.. I can't tell. Love em both, and they are both doing pretty damn good for themselves atm.

18-0? where are you getting that statistic from? he just lost like 3 in a row I'm pretty sure

After winning his second GSL NesTea is definitely the Zerg king at the moment.
He's stepped his play up to another level whilst IdrA seems stuck right now.

But I still don't think any Zerg player is playing fantastically well. There's a lot of harass potential still to be unlocked.

Nestea is currently a long way ahead of all other Zerg players in his understanding of the race and the match ups.

top 5 in my book would be

1 Nestea absolutely no doubt the best zerg right now dont think anyone can beat him in a best of 5 ZVT or ZVP right now. ZVZ is a little bit of a coin flip so may happen. but still think hes the best at that matchup aswell :D
2 julyzerg
3 Sen
4 losira
5 idra


EDIT this is really embarrassing i forgot julyzerg

Never in my life would I have imagined that ZergBong, LOOOOOOOOLL, of all people, would be the generally agreed upon "zerg king". LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL.

Excuses the capital LOLOLLOLOLOLOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLs, but this shit is just too funny.

On topic: from my limited SC2 exposure, all the top zerg players are pretty much the same. Nobody is able to dominate, win rates are similar, and this applies to top T and P players as well. The game is still way too volatile to determine any "kings" like one could in BW.

Really want to post that Bisu dressed as king picture after he beat perfectman with 2 stargirls beside him in SPL grand finals, but my TL searching skills are failing me.

Nestea's win rates are way higher than any other zergs. Pretty sure he has >70% in all matchups. He is pretty damn consistent. Not counting season 1 his record is champion, ro8, ro4, stays code s, ro16 WCs, champion, at least ro16 in Super Tourney. He is definitely zerg king.

The list goes as follows in my opinion. As for if the "throne" is occupied or not, after NesTea won his 2nd GSL that basically consolidates that he is THE MAN.
#1 Nestea
#2 IdrA
#3 SeN

#5 DongRaeGu

Nestea is the only one that has performed at a reasonably consistent, solid level with sometimes revolutionary strategies and crushing victories. No one else is worth considering for the title of "greatest Zerg" at the moment, people have been too inconsistent as the state of the game frequently changes.

Agreed.
Nestea
1v1 Record:
All: 66-28 (70.21%)
vT: 35-23 (60.34%)
vZ: 14-2 (87.50%)
vP: 17-3 (85.00%)

That is a rather impressive record.

His vs T record is interesting. I guess he does really bad vs terran outside of GSL cause purely GSL games it's >70% according to last night and that was before the games vs Bomber happened.

Best overall Zerg is unquestionably Nestea.

Best foreign Zerg is up in the air, but I would say Sen is probably the best foreign Zerg.

Morrow is the best euro zerg atm imo, I´m confident he´s better than Idra. Nestea is by far the most accomplished zerg atm, dunno how anyone can doubt that.

July is better than all of those except Nestea. Losira is better than most of them too.

Although statistically worse, I actually marvel at his vs P record more than his vs T showing. So many Zergs (my chosen race) complain about playing vs P. I don't relate though, I don't mind any match up besides ZvZ.
