MvP calls 1/1/1 a disgraceful build and does a 2 bunker block that you can't do it on any other maps.


well thank god his job is to win and not please ignorant forum posters

Huge mistake by NesTea not to block the bunkers.
Well said. Not like MVP pulled all his SCV's to do some silly all-in

That only makes it worse. Not an all in and it GGd the worlds best Zerg like 4 minutes into the game?

World's best Zerg who doesn't patrol a drone on the choke.

Is the only terran to acknowledge the 1-1-1 build and says people should get DQ'ed for using it.

Uses imbalanced cheese next game.

Problem double standards?

Imbalanced cheese to make up for imbalanced map. You ever try to play TvZ on Belshir? It's up there with TvZ on Taldarim as one of the most frustrating scenarios in SC2 for a Terran player.


Well, if i remember correctly, all maps are frustrating and imbalanced to play for a Terran player.

I really hope NaDa shows me the way to succeed in TvP. That matchup is probably my worst T_T

LOL @ the idiots calling DongRaeGu overrated after MLG.

Even Nestea can't beat MMA or IMMVP.


Honestly I think everyone was just looking down at MLG the event comparing to GSL and thinking if he lost at MLG to a couple of terrans.. when it happens to be the couple of best TvZ'ers right now on the planet.

no surprise mvp took it, my liquidbet still said nestea, was hoping he would show us something amazing and i think forgetting burrow was HUGELY important


Yep, I think late burrow was a big mistake in game 1 too. Failed baneling mines, no infested terran bombs on the siege tanks. Was hoping Nestea would correct that in game 2 but it didn't reach that point. Game 1 was good.

nope I'd actually be fine with that being allowed on Belshir. Roaches and queens and spine crawlers on the high ground allow you to deal with it without having to last ditch like nestea did with a Bling bust.

It wouldnt be very easy to get creep on the high ground for that timing, youd either have to dump 150 into a second queen (and even then energy and the time it takes for creep to spread would be an issue) or you have to miss out on larva injects (and still have the same issue with the amount of time it takes for creep to spread)

Game 2 disappointing, but MVP did what he had to to win. Disappointed that nestea didn't find out beofre though, a player of his caliber should have also found out. Especially considering that Terrans don't like long macro games on Bel'Shir. Gratz to MVP!

well, he probably found out before, he was just not prepared for it to happen.
But youre actually right: On a map like this he should actually watch out for possible cheese/bunker rushes even more than on other maps.

Why all the hate for MVP? Cuz he knew that a macro game on Bel'Shir would suck for him, so he tried to end it before it gets long?^^

Now Nada Huk... who to root for? :/

Not even close, honestly.

Nada hasnt done much more than huk has in code S.


not much more? being in code S since it exists is so fcking big man

NaDa's yet to finish worse than Ro16 in a GSL.

That's not to bad, y'know? Admittedly, he hasn't won yet -- but he'll fix that this month.


Well I mean, he has consistently been good-but-not-great for a Code S player.

He tends to walk over mediocre players pretty well and get crushed whenever he faces legitimate contenders for the championship.
Keep in mind he goes to university full time and at times cannot even practice for days at a time.

I actually don't think nestea minds losing this GSL that much, maybe this'll get him to come to some foreign events??

why? Nada lost straigh-up 0:2 to...Mana. Mana is good, but cmon now, he's not code S material (yet)? Nada always had a very strange TvP, I actually think HuK has a decent chance.


I seriously think Mana has a stronger PvT then HuK. Atleast as strong.


Didn't Mana beat Puma in group stages at IEM?

There are other maps where you can use 2 bunkers to block a choke, such as Tal'Darim.

It's zergs responsibility to prevent that.

What upset? Nestea gets owned in practice against MVP. Phenomenal TvZ against Nestea's weakest match-up. I bet on MVP and for good reason.

Bad commentating tbh... 'biggest upset in the GSL' ? I think alot of people picked MVP to win... I know I did.


the graphs were heavily in favor of nestea


Only on LB. while others showed something more even, which is to be expected.

This plus several other past polls shows how misinformed you and the foreign community, more specifically the TL community is. TLers voted heavily in favor for MMA and Nestea due to all the hype they receive from commentators or other "authority" figures in the SC2 community. This trend has been going on for quite some time.

Misinformed commentators > misinformed community > ignorant community > bad posting

And what are we all forgetting here? the crazy evil plan by non other than Min Chul worked just like he expected:D ^^ except for the I advance myself part

Mvp is soo good, I can't understand the baby QQ about Mvp BUnkerrushing on Belshir beach, ppl seem to not have seen a lot of tvz on that map.

I'm also glad that Nestea didn't seem to shocked/upset because he knew a match against MVP is a 50% win at max. -> lol at wolf: one of the biggest upsets in GSL


PS: Spotted Huk in EG Jersey arrrrg gogogo Nada



The plan was ... they take another out yes, but not because he wanted Nestea or MVP to not get another title but because if he went on and win it all he would move up a position in the ranking.
He did that for points, now he's in up and down how is that helping him gaining on n1 and n2 spot ?
It utterly backfired, it's a nice plan but he messed it up big time.
So how did that plan work ?

Nope.

Yea so a player loses 1 best of 3 and suddenly he loses that title? Lets see MVP go undefeated this GSL and win his 3rd then we can talk.


To be fair Nestea's July run was against one of the easiest paths, if not the easiest, through a GSL ever


LOL yeah really.

i should also mention polt's super tournament run.

losira, huk, maka, alicia, top, mma.


losira, alicia, top, mma are pretty good

much better than ensnare, coca, hongun, and losira
do you have enough resolve, hero of justice?

Ugh at people whining vecause MVP bunker rushed... 1/1/1 is different, it's extemely hard to stop even if you scout it. Bunker rushes are infinitely simpler to defend.
