Protoss players need to start playing stargates with bisu/sage style instead of following up with a timing attack. Stargate harrassments work so much better when you have ground units killing queens and spores. I think you are right. Did you see Tester's games?

I also think it's worth noting that when he lost to MVP one of the games was on close positions old shakuras, so that game wasn't really fair. Also blistering sands.
Nestea has lost before, otherwise he'd soon to be 9th time champion. Even the gods get hurt sometime.

Cause mc has never won against decent Zergs with 3base + hmmmm It's impossible. Protoss have to go all-in every PvZ if they want to win. It is known.

In PvZ, if a Protoss wants to Forge FE like that, they've gotta play it more like TvZ, where you go all the way to the "deathball" style, making it very hard to break.
And Hong Un made one huge defensive mistake in leaving the path from the natural to the third completely clear. He made a wall on the far side but let Zerg just walk in his front door.

i don't play much 1v1 ladder anymore, but is anyone else just enjoying tuning in to see how nestea is suddenly destroying who he thought he might be weak to?

Broodlords don't attack, they shot broodlings, who does the MELEE attacks.
You're an idiot. Broodlords fling broodlings, which deal initial 20 + 2per up FLYER DAMAGE. Broodlings do their individual damage afterwards.

Uhh, regardless of how good hongun's PvZ is, which I don't think is "very good", he's far far far far below nestea and that's a fact everyone can agree on so pointing at these games and looking for places to whine is a pretty stupid idea.

Yea,he is the best zerg because he is smart.Hongun is a player that does the same tactic over and over and Nestea just exploits it.He is skipping speed early(which if Hongun was smart he would exploit it),Nestea is just making so many cuts in the play to get so far ahead because Hongun is letting him to do that.If the toss would have 6 gated him the last game the zerg would be dead.But again Nestea actually scouts and reacts unlike Hongun.

FXOBoSS said on Choya's stream that QXC beats Nestea in practice and that he didn't expect IM to send NesTea out. ehhh....I think any pro/decent player can occasionally take games off anyone else but in a tourney setting it's probably different. Also consider on ladder that Nestea probably isn't showing his best strats cause you don't want to reveal those to the world. best nestea practices against fxo...right? I dont' think nestea likes to show his strategies in practice/ladder games. Most the games we see out of him are this weird composition...Who here has ever gone zergling/infestor/baneling against chargelot/archon. Also, MC is probably shaking his head saying.."that coulda been me getting destroyed" ...that's what I said. Unless you were talking to the originator of the quote chain.

Idk, I think DRG might be better than Losira by a little, but he hasn't had as much exposure so it's hard to tell.

What he"s saying is that Hongun needs to turtle and macro more.

either way, GG. NesTea happened  The GSL crowds have been growing in size and volume for the last few weeks. I think MLG and NASL finals hurt their Korean pride, and now they're stepping it up.
whenever nestea plays, the crowds are usually that big.

As big of a MC fan I am, I don't think he'd fare much better against Nestea if he does his usual air opening (that he uses every game against zerg now). Hongun is already playing REALLY well - Tastosis themselves can't even think of what he needs improvement on. Hongun needs to do some all in cheeses to have a chance. His standard play is already surprisingly solid, but its just no match against Nestea.

Wow at the number of people who don't know that Broodlords benefit from flyer attack. Wow.

A mediocre protoss doesnt get to round of 4. A mediocre protoss doesnt beat MC last round.

No doubt, HongUn at least has some pretty solid stuff, he's just getting mauled. Inca it was over within minutes.

Hongun shoudnt give him to drone that hard both game, its ok, we all expect Nestea to steamroll over him, but at least try some 6 gate push next game, dont go without fighting..crowd wants some blood! Tho nothing bad with seeing Nestea swarming over poor opponents
