I'm shocked that Jinro is the favourite vs Foxer according to Pinnacle Odds. I'd bet money on Foxer on 1.94...

Ah I was a bit disappointed by that game. I was hoping to learn how to deal with the 2 base push through the back rocks on that map. Nestea had some pretty good delay tactics, but I don't understand having the spire and lair in the main, as I would think that at least the natural would buy a bit more time for something like brood lords if he chooses to go that way.

Nestea was way ahead but tried to engage a very static army of tanks in a narrow area. He probably should have attacked MVP's natural, or at least feigned an attack there.

NesTea ran all his lings through a narrow ramp surrounded by siege tanks and marines, without the necessary +1 carapace armor upgrade to take an extra hit from tanks. He threw away is 2 base lead with that suicidal attack =(

Also wished people would pay attention to the details rather than cry imbalance.

Really? Blistering Sands has one of the most awkward 3rd base choices in the game.

mvp had a pretty cool build. double engineering bay WHILE going banshee? the banshee was almost just to trick nestea into getting mutas as he was getting 2-2 upgrades...

do you have a different style of counting over there in the us or what

2-1 + 2-0 --> 5 upgrades
2-2 + 0-0 --> 4 upgrades

You can't count the upgrades like that, Marines are what mattered here.

Nestea really needs to win this game because next it's Jungle Basin.

Hopefully we'll get to see 3bases vs. 3bases, with both players fighting for a 4th.

stop the balance whine. nestea won 3 base v 3 base did he not? he simply got outplayed here as MVP's positioning was superb.

No, that was an extremely risky 3rd and 4th. So it was 2 base vs 4base.
