That's what Artosis said on SOTG, he said even if a game is a ridiculous one sided ownage that he could hopefully learn and see something new and cool. We learnt that you can two rax and build two bunkers on a map that isnt in ladder play. Pretty much an autowin. I think that last game was terrible and we learned nothing. whine whine whine ...
So if a Protoss in BW does a FFE and zerglings run by it, does it mean the map needs to be patched? Bro it just means you need to pull some probes and press "stop" over the gap that's still there. It's NEstea's choice to go hatch first (very valid on a huge map), but it's MVP's right to try and limit Nestea's macro by doing some early pressure. In this case, he "broke" the map by showing a way to disconnect the two bases. Nestea needed 1 drone on patrol / Shift-move command between the top spots.

Why not? There are about 8-9 GSLs per year. 3 GSL titles aren't that hard to get as 3 OSL titles. 3 OSL titles is basically the equivalent of like 15 GSL titles Woah, woah, woah, slow down. Why, sounds about right! Sure, 3 OSL titles is amazing, but 15 GSL titles is fucking impossible

I may disagree with huk being on EG, but he is one of few protosses left.

Slight upset but not huge. No, it would be huge. Nada is 10 times more consistent and solid. I am fairly certain nada will take it. Huk didnt get to prepare with OGS TL house for this matchup and everyone at the house was probably helping nada (i know he doesnt live there but he still trains there) and they all know how huk plays quite well.

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. There's no way a zerg would have roaches at that point in the game, their SP finishes ~10 seconds before the bunkers go up.......... And how would they get creep there.......... Dude, no. Reason why that is fixed on most maps, it's an extremely effective no risk cheese that wins you the game automatically.
Good of MvP to recognize it hasn't been fixed on that map.

You have no clue about you're saying. sure he does you notice how nestea didn't hatch first on daybreak? could've done that on zerg shir and it wouldn't have been a problem at all
I was talking about the roach and spine thing.

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
i think it's quite obvious than Polt's run was harder.

MVP has looked back to his best self after winning MLG IMO. He cruised through the group stage and once he's at his best he's simply better than Nestea.
|
I actually want NaDa to win this series, even though I'm an EG fan.
Nada winning his first GSL is something I've been waiting for since he switched over :D

Even Nestea can't beat MMA or IMMVP. Honestly DRG's ZvT might be better than Nestea's Possibly...I haven't seen DRG face the top tier terrans even over a good span of time. Nestea has beat MVP( even on the imbalanced maps) and mma just got rolfstomped by polt whom nestea owned before. Nestea is still undisputed the best player...but his Achilles heel is ZvT
MVP is 7-1 in televised matches vs Nestea so I don't understand the line that you posted (I bolded it).

Who can't be happy about that happening? Hell I bet on July vs MC just cuz I hoped in my heart an old-school playerer would take it.
HongUn vs July will guarantee a non-terran in Ro8.
At least I hope so....

I still dont see nestea coming out to many foreign events. hes the type of player like likes to study his opponent and he simply wont have an adequate blue print for the foreigners. Besides, he should enjoy his free time now =)
|
So, if only Terrans go through today...
Shouldn't though. Huk's better than Nada.
|
Nada got 3-0'd by friggin Inca.Huk can do this, cmon Huk!

It's zergs responsibility to prevent that.
Yea, I said it earlier too ;p. Ive seen Nahmcir do that all the time on his stream and ive started doing it to. some maps might require 3 bunkers but salvage makes it worth the expense imo.

Huk's schedule looks really insane.
