Dimaga vs nestea set 3 just felt like Dimaga droned more in the beginning. Eh I'm not liking ZVZ, it feels too much like rock paper scissors.

It's not, you just need super fucking good decision making and lots of experience with the matchup

Nestea went straight for roach warren + roaches right after his pool. It's a pretty mineral intensive opening that he's dedicating to units. Dimaga took map control with lings and made his roach warren later and used those earlier minerals for drones instead.
i was driving down the road this november eve and spotted a hitchhiker walking down the street. i pulled over and saw that it was only a tree. i uprooted it and put it in my trunk. do trees like marshmallow peeps? cause that's all i have and will have.

Dimaga! Holy crap that guy is a BEAST!

I did laugh when I realized he beat NesTea... oh, if only you'd beaten him the other day! But then again, Korea vs. The World didn't really mean anything. Still, Dimaga... that dude's gotta be getting a ton of fans from this little trip to Korea!

Is he going to consider staying in Korea by any chance? I know GSL got rid of foreign seeds for whatever reason, but since he didn't get into NASL... maybe it'd be a good idea?

Wow wow wow wow, I wasn't able to watch Dimaga vs Nestea live, but now I saw the VODs. So *** awesome! And what I need now are Korean NETIZENS! I want to know what the koreans think about Dimaga after beating Nestea today and MVP+July yesterday!

I was a little confused at it too because of the lighting, but I'm pretty sure it was one big whirlwind of "FUCK YEAH I WON! + I love everyone + NesTea, you're a great competitor and I totally respect you" all rolled into one little ceremony.

Nothing like Dimaga beating Nestea to put a big ol banana grin on my face in the morning. Come to think of it, is anyone in EU better than Dimaga at ZvZ? Nerchio?

Also, Dimaga fighting!!!


Indeed. When I read that live, I took it as a compliment to San. White-Ra is a mature man with a sportsmanship attitude and a gentleman.

How can anyone be better than Dimaga in ZvZ atm when he just beat arguably the best ZvZ player in the world?
You can't out-think the swarm, you can't out-maneuver the swarm, and you certainly can't break the morale of the swarm.

ZvZ is imbalanced.

Funny story is that I was told ZvZ was imbalanced on ladder when I hard-countered mutas with infestors.

Just today I won with roach infestor vs roach hydra. He went on ranting about how he hates ZvZ and asked "what could I have done against this? such a joke". So yea lol

Well, the other day when he lost there was no money on the line.

Clearly the world would have 8-0'd korea if Korea vs The World was for money.

It was likely the cheesy 6 pool that threw nestea off his game a little bit. First time losing ZvZ in a major event, and that rattled him enough for his control to slip, and Dimaga pulls way ahead.

Havn't saw vods yet but thats what russion fans where talking about on ru forum.

There are dimaga fp streams(dimaga streaming his play on different tourneys like craftcup etc.) on site sc2tv.ru rather often(there was 25 total). And on 2 last streams right before this gsl event, dimaga used wev camera so that people can see him in small window during the stream.

And all people saw that he drinks a lot water from a simple glass liter can. And so people start talking that is Dimaga's lucky can. On our russin forum fans were very worried if Dimaga was allowed to keep his lucky can with him

So this picture is about this joke.
[image loading]

And lets look at this picture - who knows may be he is drinking water from his lucky magic can
[image loading]

Also in this intrview http://ru.justin.tv/kellymilkies/b/282503920 i can translate for you dimagas words for russian fans:
"Hi everybody! Well we will roll all GSL champions "

Ofcourse i think it was just a joke and dimagas good mood.

ye he didnt deserve to win at all, also StarTale is stupid to want such player in their squad, you are right. Seriously? You know that getting advantages on opponents mistakes is part of the game?

Dimaga just abused Nestea build order flaw in second game, there is no possibility to defend 9/10 pool allin vs 15/16 hatch on XNC WITHOUT scouting.

The only way to expand on xnc without failing to cheese is to go speedling expand not hatch first. Dimaga just showed pretty big ass flaw in Neastea's game plan. Everyone is saying scouting in zvz is pointless, but on maps like xnc you CANT put hatch first with only overload scouting or you are putting yourself in risky situation. TADA
