If he pulled some workers he would have destroyed the damn bunker and he would have a full hp, spine.

Nestea failed there, AND he failed when he 14 hatch on SoW.

Screw these cheesy builds.

Marines need a serious nerf. Slower movement, slower firing rate, or lesser health.

Stim also needs a longer build time.



This is not a balance issue. This is a build order issue. This kind of patch-hungry attitude is a very bad part of the SC2 community. It's limiting innovation. Zergs need to understand that hatch first against an aggressive Terran who 2-barracks, is not a viable build.


This kind of thinking is incorrect. It's HARDER, not easier, to defend 2 rax marine off 1 base. Additionally, if the terran FE's off it, and the zerg is stuck turtling on one base, the terran is in a dominating position.

Stop blaming matchups people. T > Z midgame depending on how the games play out. Why aren't T slow pushing more with tanks?

Wait... NesTea lost 3 times to the same shit, and didn't adapt the second or third time WHATSOEVER?

And you're calling Rain the shitty player? Sure he was cheesing/all-in/whatever you want to call it, but NesTea, as a champion, should've anticpated it on Game 5 EASILY, went pool first, and outmacroed rain from there.

Terrible series, and sadly very indicative of SC2 right now. Still, I'm not pissed at Rain; Zerg always thinks they can just 14 hatch with impunity (and they usually do), and I don't blame him for not wanting to play a macro game against NesTea. Rain just does what he has to to win.

Sure as hell doesn't make for a good spectator game, though.

That was just pathetic. As easy it is to blame rain for sucking, I don't know what NesTea was thinking. Why would he hatch first on such a small map? And then do it again after getting cheesed the first time? And then do it AGAIN after getting cheesed the second time?

I'm a huge zerg fan, I wanted NesTea to win this one, but I have to say, this loss was his fault.

as a zerg buddy im totally feeling for nestea right now. i hate those rushes. but thats the game. if you lose to 2 all-ins earlier then maybe you should rethink your strategy of preventing such rushes.
I'm not affraid, because I know there are thousands of Liquidians out there.

Rain is really good. Totally outplayed Nestea.

Rain did what he needed to win, he is not better than nestea, just won with 3 all-ins.

Rain got the job done, the ends justify the means but saying he "totally" outplayed nestea is just trashtalking.


best player won.

I like how everyone that's saying 2 rax rush is punishment for hatch first doesn't even have 50 posts.

I'd quote the Ret post, but you should go find it yourself.

I'm not feeling nice tonight.

You don't have the larva required to keep up with Marine production off one base. It's just impossible.

It's either hatch first and pray you hold or lose.

Nestea was clearly the better player. Rain just abused the system and we get a shitty player in the Top 4.

Blizzard and/or Gom have to do something or watching TvZ is going to be unwatchable.
