Watch how you approach the topic of match fixing. You can speculate, saying "I'm not so sure about the finals, something doesn't sit right with me," but if you are going to outright accuse players of match fixing you need something more than your word.

TL takes match fixing/abuse seriously and as such there is a burden a proof when you are accusing players.

I think this tournament had been a real disappointment not because of the matches they didn't show, hut just because it was an invite only tourney with relatively underwhelming people (compared to the Koreans at least) playing for third prize. At least MLg has a variety of Koreans to vie for prizes, and even then it has proved to be prone to upsets, but bluzzcon, I don't think anyone doubted a mvp nestea finish... And that it doesn't make for a compelling tourney.

Nestea used Nerchio style in game 2. Same build order and everything.


Yea, I used Nerchio style to I guess cause I roach all in after 16 drones.... which is a standard all in. So I guess all the Zergs in the world all have Nerchio style to use when they wanna all in.


Guys (for everyone responding like you) learn to spot sarcasm...


Just the same as Ling/Infestor not being the "Stephano" build. He may play that style but it doesn't mean he owns it, which is why its annoying to hear commentators like Day9 throwing it out there.


I agree, ling/infestor was invented by Destiny actually.


actually it was used in the beta before muta/bling came into popularity.


He did not invent it. He was not the first pro player that used it. Players in the beta used similar strategies
But that's not really the point.
The point is that Stephano was the one that showed that this strategy was still viable against top players at this point of the game.
This do not imply that Nestea surely copied him, but it is possible that Nestea reconsidered this strategy after ipl3...


Considering Nestea used this exact strat and build against MVP in the ro8 of GSL a single day after IPL3 ended I highly doubt that. I highly doubt he even watched those games until after his match (if at all) he was definitely busy training to beat MVP.

So what ?
Stephano has been using this strat more than 2 months before IPL3, and since Nestea doesn't live in the US he should know about it.

It's Stephano who invented this strategy, and showed it is viable at the highest level, noone else.
Or maybe you can find a vod of someone getting a fast hive only to get adrenaline glands before Stephano ?

People saying this build existed in the beta are stupid, because the game was so much different that it's simply not possible to be the same build/strategy.

for the same reason they use this mappool.


Actually it has to stay at bo3 because it is double elim, otherwise it'd be really unfair to the players. So this is the right choice by blizzard.


Why? The players would have to play more games?


because of the inequality of some one "losing" once when it was bo3 vs now having to win two bo7s. See they only lost two games before and now have to makeup for it by winning 4. that is where the unfairness comes in.

Blizzard's mistake was to assume that every battle.net region was equal, and thus invited 2 players from each region. Of course, they aren't equal, and fantastic players from KR/EU/US were left out to make room for token appearances.

Calm down people. They are obviously playing the games on that non-existent LAN that SC2 doesn't support. That's why they can't let some awesome caster just jump into the game and stream even if they can't use the main stage. Seriously what are you guys complaining about.

I don't think there has ever been a player came from the loser bracket and won the grand final. They should ditch this stupid format all together, the only thing it guarantees is an anti climatic "grand" final. What's the reasoning behind using this dumb format?

By the way, screw Starcraft - TriviaCraft for the win.


Same here, he might come back though.
