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.

Browder up there proudly wearing his Terran shirt.

With a prize pool of that size, you'd think they'd give a shit about map balance.

Darkforce handle late game Zerg better than Nestea, he won vs MVP in that situation in Geforce tourney


no darkforce handled that late game zerg better than Nestea...in that game. The rest of the tournament he played fantastic. His play was just strange at the end. He simply wasn't really doing anything for some reason.

Thorzain vs Darkforce game 3 in ESWC was very similar. Same map, same tacs and same outcome.

The only maps you can mass ghosts like that on are shakuras and metal and seeing as how those maps are pretty damn good for zergs, especially metal, you should be able to end the game in the mid - early late game.

Could be, they are teammates afterall. That was some weak play by Nestea in that last game.


Since they are on the same team and its a Korean team they probably dont get that much of the prize at all so its fine whoever gets it anyway the team will divy it up.

Nestea played ridiculous..

Wouldn't suprise me. That last game was show matchy.

Either way sick game :D.

I'm just dissapointed MVP left the stage so fast lost his chance for all the cheers as most people left QQ


Nestea came into the game with a 1-0 advantage in sets. He'd have to be really nice or really unconfident to accept a prize split.


or be on the same team as the player that just lost GSL Finals and vowed to start his comeback by winning blizzcon Finals

do people really think lings are a counter to ghosts?

protecting ghosts vs their "counter" : park a few helions/marines

protectings zerg units vs ghosts : requiring either ridiculous infestor/overseer/dancing broodlord micro or lose.

With 14k mineral and no a lot of gas, nestea should really had made 6 hatches 6 queens more and just spamed lings :D Only what, 5 tanks ? + the useless vikings and ghosts, that wasn't a lot of effective supply for MVP against lings...could have sent 3 or 4 broodlords alone to siege the bottom expand to tax MVP multitasking, then just made 3 max waves of lings, with 10+ hatches xD


Exactly this. He honestly could've massed lings and won with his 14k easily.

Worst crowd ever, the crowd in the Warsaw Blizzard Invitational was much better and it was WAY smaller.

Awesome games though, congrats Mvp! :D

So fucking easy for Mvp to force Nestea to need twice his APM to keep up. Just set the rallies use shift to queue up 3 drops and 3 nukes at once, impossible to deal with every location on the map at once with melee units. Marines beat everything in the air, so you have to run around map architecture while Terran just flies over it.

Meanwhile, Zerg's options are easy to clean up and can't be sent to multiple locations at once. Nydus never even got planted, and he wasn't even able to drop all of his overlords.

Siege tanks with turrets and marines beat everything coming out of 1 choke except T3, yet he still has so much supply cap (due to only needing 50 fucking workers - hell he only needed like 20-30 at the end) that he can just mass Ghosts and Vikings and defeat every T3 combination at the same time. 2 Thors + 3/3 marines make any number of Mutas worthless.

Seriously, there is literally nothing that Nestea could have done. His APM was easily stretched to the brink, and we're talking about Nestea here, he looked horrible because there is literally no way to control your army in that many places and keep up with Terran "APM" of 3 shift clicks and a shift+D that he set up 2 minutes earlier.

The map sucks balls in a split map scenario of course, but literally EVERY MAP has a choke somewhere, and that's ALL Terran needs.


You are retarded, honestly. Why don't you take your balance whine and get out? It's not even worth it to respond to all the nonsense you said in this post because you clearly have no clue at all.

as for OP ghosts and crap and sorry for double post.....yes ghost are amazing and all that stuff but for most ppl is not that easy to get such a huge amount of ghosts..Nestea allowed Mvp to get so many ghosts by being extremely passive that game....all 3 caster units from its race are actually way too good...dont tell me that u havent seen few high templars or few infestors win shitloads of games??? common ppl thats sc every race can and does indeed win..!Good tournament overall and i really hope blizzard makes a double stream or something next year so we can see more games..even if the second stream or something is in the virtual ticket packet...!

The crowd left because the closing ceremony starts in 20 minutes. If you've ever been to blizzcon, you know finding a seat is a pain.

After that bad play of nestea at the end he did not deserve to win. The thing I just want to say is that I feel ghosts are too good of a unit in my opinion. They should either have emp or cloak and never both since that is a very powerful spell and snipes make them strong enough against casters anyway. take away their cloak and everything is okay. Right now they are a cloaked unit that can destroy especially zerg detection very fast and from far away.
