I'm not saying the games were bad, I'm saying NesTea won in a very convincing way. In the first game he had 101 drones at the 12 minute mark and won the game by throwing away small groups of ultralisks. | ||

They were somewhat close, but perhaps because TvTs tend to be close. Nada was way outplayed in both games. The first game of the Polt Bomber game was extremely good, I'll put it as one of the more memorable matches GSL has produced. But then the 2nd game is not worth it, unless you enjoy genocide. | ||

Don't make this a "omg terran have more" thing. They don't. Protoss have many all-in/'cheesy' options such as 2gate proxy, 4gate, DTs, 3gate-VR (probably the best analogue of the raven allin), etc. that have been used at a high level. Zerg have the Roach/Ling Allin/aggression off 1-2base, 6-10pool, or the fast lair 2 base hydra drop allin vs P, amongst other things, baneling busts of varying sorts... Not anymore. 2 gate was weakened by zealots at 38 seconds. 4 gate was weakened by slower warpgate DT's always been pretty weak against terran early Why you think MC doesnt all in anymore vs T? Without perfect scouting the 3 rax all in and raven/tank/banshee is impossible to hold for toss which is how Bomber beat MC. There is still plenty of cheese you can run on a Zerg though. | ||

I would say it's 50-50 if he gets to face MC/Bomber.All three are the best in their respective race. (I would say bomber's defeat was due to nerve and he didnt play up to his potential) Not really. Bomber's TvZ is pretty damn bad, relative to his other matchups. Just look at his recent results (losing to NesTea, dropping games to Haypro, then Moon, then Destiny, etc.). His Korean ELO in TvZ is not indicative of anything except for a small sample size and outdated games. I'd say that TOP has a much better TvZ than Bomber. Ergo, NesTea is pretty much a lock to win, unless Coca can pull something out of a hat. Seriously, if the GSL teaches us anything, it's that we should be more afraid of huge underdogs knocking out top players than anything else. | ||

NesTea played sloppy in that series, and still almost pulled off one of the greatest comebacks in GSL history. Just because a player loses one series doesn't automatically make them bad at that match up, players are allowed to have bad days. Yes there is a possibility that NesTea would lose to Bomber or MC but I think NesTea is rightly the favrourite in against Bomber and MC, so it is his to lose. Either way, I just hope to see two of the three in the final so we can hopefully have a finals that lives up to all the hype. | ||

That is literally the most absurd thing ive ever read on this forum. MC has beaten nestea already. | ||

MC doesn't lose to zergs. Nestea rarely lose to protoss. They'll train specifically for each other. I'M HYPED. | ||
