Well played by dimaga.

Fantastic guess for game 2 to cheese which seemed to effect Nestea quite a bit in game 3 as well as he played quite cautious there.


I was quite disapointed by White-ra today though
+ Show Spoiler +
His 4 gate defense was quite horrible. Sure he had nice micro in the second game but without a sentry there is just absolutely no chance a defense like that will hold against a proper 4 gate. The entire idea of the 3 stalker defense is to have enough time to get a sentry and lots of stalkers so you can cut their force in half when they try to come up the ramp... Terrible strategic mistakes from him game 2 and 3 as a good 4 gater will simply not let his pylon be sniped now that everyone knows the 3 stalker defense..




You sure have no idea about what a 3 stalker rush is...

I definitly agree with what he said about the 3 stalker rush though. Inteligent players will find way around it. TT1 almost died both his game for the same reason when he missed pylons and got sanwiched. San didn't have the micro to capitalize from it, but MC just destroyed it.
As a bare minimum you need a sentry to block the ramp when the attack finally does come. He won't have a pylon by the ramp in time to warp in above the force field and you'll have time to get your tech/4gates up and rolling before he can break you.

A shame he has to face San next when ZvP is not his forte, but I have faith. He still has some time.

lol the trolls are going to continue to think the team usa thing is funny as long as there are overly zealous posters here, just chomping at the bit to express their distaste for all 300 million of us.

He's an extremely arrogant person who never backs it up, that's why.


I wouldnt put it so aggressively as you did, but... that actualy sounds about right

i live huk and all but... y'know, i'm not sure what happened, but he hasnt been that competitive since, i dunno, those mlg's in 2010?

maybe it's just the korean factor.... but when he was in america, he seemed to play better and not as borderline "cocky"

Rain and Naniwa apologized before?


Rain apologised for cheesing, which was retarded and he shouldn't have done imo.

10 seconds for 1-1 to finish and DIMAGA probably would have won yesterday. These players are real close tho as 2-2 indicates.

I was so happy to see Huk get into code S as GSL is the only tournment i watch, but his play reacently hasnt been to a code S standard i dont think. I wish some of these other guys would come to play GSL full time as they are pretty awesome.

So sad whitera got eliminated by 4gates, it seems protoss match up is broken. He showed he was the better player or at least even to code S top players vs san and mc but just has to live thru the 4gate.

I had never seen Dimaga before although i had heard of him, his personality and play skill has earned him a new fan tho for sure.

A major thing this GSL has promted me to do is probabily watch less GSL and more European tournments so i can follow these guys. The skill level is definatly just as high and they seem to be more creative and have a more fun personality. Wish there was a top production tournment like GSL in Europe. What tournments do you guys recommend i start to follow? thx

I'm not sure I would call Dimaga a -better- player yet than Nestea, but he's certainly proven he's on the same level, which when you think about it is insanely crazy already. It's a Bo3, which numerous amounts of pros have said are still not very good judges of true player skills, and of course Game 2 was some crazy metagame build order win.

But in game 3, we see Dimaga really is at Nestea's level, or at least that's how it appears. Nestea loses a queen early and a TON of zerglings in an overextended early aggression, after that Dimaga is just ALWAYS ahead. Nestea and Dimaga were playing almost exactly the same, but Dimaga was just a couple moves ahead because of some mistakes Nestea made. To play ZvZ like that, on Nestea's level, a guy who until tonight was undefeated in ZvZ in tournament matches while playing some of the best Korean Zergs, is a crazy thing to believe.

Is Dimaga better than Nestea? Lets wait a couple weeks or even months and see how things go guys, it was just one set after all guys, and it was VERY VERY VERY close at that. Whatever the case those, Dimaga continues to impress, San's ZvP seems good though, tough match coming his way.

I don't know what the huk you're talking about. I bet at the same time you like IdrA. Come on, he said some stuff that was a bit cocky, but I'm pretty sure a lot of that was out of fun (not the top 3 control though, he just didn't know that there are a lot of better players cause he never played them back there ^^).

and I don't see him rage quitting or something. I think he's a friendly guy. I mean, think about the waffles ceremony, he has got some respect for people. It's just arrogant to call him arrogant.


The top 3 control comment was only made just over one month ago at Assembly, he also said he was the best player at that tournament. He thinks extremely highly of himself.

I don't understand too why people are more inclined to antipathy over sympathie. Maybe jealousy or something else :-/

And I'm not fan of huk, he is so cocky without real results. But I don't enjoy his loss.
