im so happy for him, he is sooo sympathic


Dimaga lost first game as he went banelings vs. roaches.

Dimaga won second game with a 10 pool all in vs nestea's hatch first.

Dimaga won third game macro style by gaining little advantages through out the game. Like catching a group of lings. He was just getting his stuff faster than nestea, like faster third, faster upgrades, faster hydra den while staying pretty equal on drones.

Props to Dimaga! He did all in once tho, takes a bit of the sweetness away. That cheese really shook Nestea off his game.

The second game Dimiga made a 10 pool against hatch first and won. Nestea was probably a bit rattled in the third game after that.

Dimiga droned perfectly and sniped a queen, and later 12-15 lings hitting his rocks. That allowed Dimaga to go on the offensive while setting up his third base.

Eventually he just a-moved with roach hydra from 3 bases and powered through Nestea.

Nestea simply got outplayed on the day

to the HuK mocking:

I just don't get you people. Bullying HuK for losing to MVP. Always mocking HuK just for something he said months ago. What about you start remembering good and honest things he did and does. He actually wrote on his facebook wall like 15 minutes ago:

Sorry everyone, I really don't know what else to say ...

Tell me about another pro who is actually apologizing to his fans when not playing as well as he could. I'm not a fanboy, I just don't get the mocking.

And oh yeah.
GO DIMAGA!!!


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


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.


so confidence is just wrong in any case. think about that: recent results show that he is not so confident with his play as he says. Maybe he just wants to cover that self-doubt with these sayings that seem cocky.
still, there's no need for mocking. I think we should cheer for him as for any other foreigner.

By the way I wouldn't say that Dimaga is BETTER than NesTea. But it DEFINITELY shows that there isn't such a huge gap of skill between these two. It's just damn good news for the foreign SCII community and I just don't understand the haters.

I'm still sad for White-Ra though... He could have 4 gated and just win game 2

I don't think he likes 4-gate PvP(other P's also, but they use it more). He said that PvP is his worst matchup and from recent tourneys I think it is true. He can defeat anyone in beautiful games, but early game he often makes blunders that in PvP are too deadly. Sad that he got PvP wanted to see more of his games.

Because $27,000 USD is something to joke about.

Damn Dimaga stock should be going up a ton. Hopefully he will get invited to more tournaments and show up at some MLG events + dreamhacks/iem after this performance

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.


Always good to have a voice of reason around. Hearing statements like "dethroned the King of ZvZ" being thrown around so casually is a bit annoying.

No doubt, Dimaga deserves his win 100%, but the conclusions a few people are jumping to are ridiculous. That's why I posted earlier about how it's too bad they're probably not going to play each other for a very long time, if ever, in a tournament setting, so Nestea will never have the chance to try for his revenge (or, if Dimaga's really THAT good and solid at ZvZ, Dimaga won't have his chance to truly prove that his ZvZ is better than Nestea's)

He barely not defended the 4 warpgate push when he had his 4th gate like 2 minutes later.... Seriously, if he'd done a regular four gate, san wouldn't have stood a chance.
