My heart says Foxer will win, my brain says Nestea will win.

Foxer has grown so much during this GSL. I was ashamed for him to have the Boxer name in Ro64, but ever since the Ro32 I've been rooting for him!

How is that trash talk? He's defending foxer and nestea. Just listened to it myself and don't get why they were laughing so much, unless they were on the $££$

im worried about the GSL finals with the current state of bnet, games are nearly unplayable for me right now, played some random 4v4's and everyone was shown to be lagging for a splitsecond every 5 seconds....i can see the maintenance was for GSL but dont end up breaking bnet over it >.>

BoxeR struggled against Kiryx who proved to be a very bad and clueless player, making only banelings and baneling bust and suiciding mutas like any 2k zerg on EU or NA server. I don't see him winning against ZergBong at all.




So Fruitdealer is a 1.8k zerg on EU because he lost to Foxer? Get real man.

FruitDealer got killed by timing pushes he could have perfectly held if he had scouted better or made less tech or drones. He never played his game in the first place and I doubt ZergBong will be caught off guard like that.


No, Fruitdealer got killed because he had OLs out front that got sniped by 4 marines in both games. If he doesn't lose those OLs, he probably defends and wins in the macro game.
Teamwork is awesome... As long as your team is doing all the work!

I hope this poll just reflects that there are more Foxer fans than Nestea fans, because if you honestly believe Foxer is going to win this you're crazy. Foxer basically lost to Kyrix (Kyrix just gave him the game g5 by not macroing at the end) and Nestea is far better than Kyrix.

Nestea isn't going to lose to early marine pressure and he's not going to lose to midgame marine splits 4 times. I'm sure he's studied Foxer's games far too much. Foxer no longer has an advantage of his strategies being unknown. Foxer is going to need to entirely reinvent his game-plan or he is going to lose. He can't win playing like he did vs Kyrix. Nobody knows any way to beat a really well-played macro-oriented Z player as T right now, although if anyone can do it, it's him. The guy's a beast but I don't see a 60% chance that he's going to completely redefine the TvZ matchup right now.

4-2 Nestea, possibly 4-1.

K I am very curious. What will you say if fake boxer wins tonight? I think he'll win he lost 2 games to kryxx because he doesn't know how to defend zergling/baneling aggression like that and nestea doesn't play that way.

I normally would root for zerg but I want fake boxer to win hoping it shuts up all the imba whining :D.

Imba whining? I dunno if you're directing that at me, but I wasn't whining anywhere in my post. If Foxer wins I'll call him the better player and be happy. I'm rooting for him because I think he's awesome. I just don't see how he can win when he essentially lost to Kyrix - Nestea is going to be much, much more difficult.

yeah but they both play so different (kryxx with zergling/baneling aggression) and Nestea with macro play. I think we'll see at least 3 epic games :D

But my ending comment was not for you just other certian people I shall not name!

Here's State of the Game's analysis of the Finals. If you want to hear it, it starts at around 1:36:00 in the cast.

JP: "So tell me what you know about FoxeR, Tyler."
Tyler: "Marines."

*IdrA, Day[9], and iNcontroL laughing*

JP: "Okay, so you covered it. Tell me a little bit about NesTea."
Tyler: "This will take me three words. Better than Kyrix."

*IdrA laughing*

JP: "Marines versus Better than Kyrix... do you think FoxeR is going to take it, Tyler?"
Tyler: "No, no. We're going to have another Zerg champion."
JP: "Because he's going to make an infestor?"
IdrA: "This doesn't even count... like god damn."
iNcontroL: "Look at Greg... Greg's squirming."
(Skipping ahead a little)

JP: "So, IdrA, tell me how you feel about the finals."
IdrA: "I don't know how it happened... makes me sad."
iNcontroL (trying to control his laughter): "He hasn't lost a game."

*entire cast starts laughing hysterically*

iNcontroL: "He hasn't lost a fucking game. I don't know how it happened... he raped everybody."
(Skipping ahead a little)

IdrA: "Take a 10% coin and you flip it enough and eventually you'll put 8 in a row together."

* Day[9] laughing like crazy*

Tyler: "Only Zergs have 100% coins at the moment... awesome zergs like" *bursts out laughing* "NesTea."
JP: "Man, people are just going to think we're shitting all over FoxeR and NesTea."


Does Idra really think that he is better than nestea?!
I don't get their humor I think...


the humor is from Idra whining about balance and how he felt zerg was underpowered during gsl1 and he was sad that fruitdealer won because that may be used as justification by blizzard to not buff zerg or not nerf terran. The fact that another zerg has made it to the gsl finals, WITHOUT LOSING A GAME, as incontrol bluntly pointed out, plus the fact that idra is still whining about zerg balance (justified or not, tho admittedly PvZ may be favoring P) makes this funny at idra's expense.

Also understanding all of this will put you in the minority, and everyone knows that a joke that only the minority understands makes it that much more funny to said minority.

Yes. I am pretty sure Blizz already gets the message. If there is a way to implement LAN without hurting ladder attendance, they will do it imo.

I'm going with FoxeR both because nobody really gave him a second thought during the Ro64, and because he's taken out both FruitDealer, or Cool if you're a BW follower, and Kyrix, both very strong Zerg players and both polar opposite Zergs. FD is more the macro, just win because you have more stuff. While, Kyrix is a really aggressive Zerg, that tries to throw you off with constant pressure.

Plus, is there anything FoxeR marines can't out-micro?
