I love NesTea's confidence going into the match, I would have to agree with him based on previous performances NesTea is the heavy favorite. He said he was practicing on the NA server to play on the patch, so some lucky nerds out there got to play the best zerg on the planet and probably didn't even know who they were playing!

Wow, very nice interview, I didn't expect so much honesty and smack talking from a korean interview.

That may be the best interview of the history of GSL so far. I hope we also get the best finals so far (even though MC v Nestea would be a bit better) I like both players and I think Nestea is more prepared but he might get overconfident and lose to the Inca rule!!! I hope the one that practiced more wins (hard work wins are the best imo)!

There is so much trash talk and banter, I'm loving it. Both of them think they are going to slaughter each other tomorrow. Do it for Zerg, NesTea!

And I think Nestea should practice against canon cheese ^^
Unless Inca mindgame him and 16 nexus the first game, which would be a very good move, because Nestea will prepare for proxy/canon/4 gate imo.

The trash talk was hilarious. Great interview from both perspectives and the coaches' comments were great too.

EDIT: Although I like Inca he doesn't stand a chance vs. Nestea.

IdrA a total favourite in Korea to be honest, they made a tribute video to him when he left. Koreans like the controversy, the colour and the confidence IdrA brings to the GSL. (I am not a IdrA fan).

Nestea and Inca are living up to the BM which we see in BW proleagues etc, not surprised.

Inca seems like a cocky little upstart in this interview. I hope Nestea crushes him!

Lol, Nestea is so bad. Only 59% win on ladder and 66th place.

O wait:

- If you use a strategy on battlenet it goes around pretty quickly, any complaints?
(Nestea) – I am extremely dissatisfied. When I ladder I cannot use a build that I would regularly use. So rather than taking the ladder seriously, I use it as fun or recreation. I use the ladder to feign weakness and I also use weird builds to play mind games on possible opponents.

Haha it would be so funny to have Nestea goofing around and still win. I was really confused to why he was doing so bad on ladder until I read this.

He's also Zerg, so the win % tends to be 10-20% lower then Protoss or Terran. Has been since release of SC2.


Not at all... Nice try though.
