Ill tell you even what Hongun should have done the last 2 games because the ignorance i see in this thread is baffling.
When you scout a NO GAS pool expand from zerg you crono out STALKERS and run to the zerg forcing soo many freeking lings that he will be forced to stop droning and he wont be able to take a third.Nestea is getting ling speed at 10 freaking minutes into the game.Think about that.

Its NO balance question, the protoss simply plays to passive, harassing 1 time with phoenixes and after that teching up to templar with robo while camping and taking the 3rd without mapcontrol has nothing to do with overpowered zerg-macro or something, its simply the protoss fault to let the zerg macro up drones and larva without any pressure/mapcontrol.

So far I've seen two games where Hongun's stargate play has done next to nothing because Nestea defended it with ease (like a lot of zergs are doing these days) and then Nestea winds up with a massive economic lead over hongun and crushes him. I wouldnt say hongun is playing well nor poorly, but simply his choice of strategy is poor - if he plays FE into stargate its a virtual loss at this point.

That's your excuse? MC may have played bad but how can you not expect the most basic pvp build that he himself used a lot? I'm pretty sure that the two best PvZ ratio (in GSL games not korean weeklys or tournaments like that) are MC and HongUn.

Volume can also be increased by increasing the mass of each person present in the crowds. So maybe everyone attending is just getting fatter. Just sayin'.

Nestea is doing amazing scouting and is playing it safe until he CAN drone up. Hongun is playing very well, his force fields and unit compositions haven't been bad at all either. Where he's lacking is his strategies and this continual need to use stargates that Nestea is countering easily. The other problem is that Nestea is just doing great creating more time for himself to tech and drone up, and he builds good amounts of stationary defense, unlike most Zergs that seem to be giving away a piece of their soul to build an extra spore or spine crawler.

MC wouldn't be playing this any better, he hasn't gone very far in the GSL or beaten his fellow Koreans in a tournament ever since 6 gate timing pushes have been somewhat countered. Not to say he's playing bad all of a sudden or his late game is awful, but he's just not dominating the way he used too and he hasn't won a tournament in a while. Nestea is just playing amazing and Hongun needs to stop with the Stargate tech (which MC does a lot against Zerg as well) and try for a different direction in tech and units.

QXC is the best player in the entire world. yay. can we stop talking about him now?

But Nestea admitted that he messes around all the time in practice and on the ladder to feign weakness. If you remember before the Nestea sCfOu games, sC was like... I beat Nestea all the time on the ladder. I think he'll be really easy. Then after the games sC said it was like facing a completely different person

As others have been trying to point out, this is wrong. Broodlords do damage with the initial volley as they launch the Broodlings, which is what the flyer attack upgrades.
