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. - p4NDemik | ||

I don't care how Nestea blundered in terms of defending expos, his bank was large enough for 4 remaxes. MVP's turtle on side expos was impenetrable, turrets, sensor towers everywhere. As blunderous Nestea's failed drops looked, he was faced without the problem of defeating the cloaked ghost army. Once MVP reached an economy of similar prowess as Nestea, he could start throwing drops everywhere just like a Zerg could throw zerglings away, and Nestea couldn't deal with it. I blame Shakuras Plateau (which was the best Zerg map in the pool WTF) Mass lings, 3 or 4 times would've killed MVP at any point which Nestea could've easily done with his 15,000 minerals. | ||

I have not seen a game yet where anyone won against this, tier 1 or any tier. | ||

Just doing extra damage vs light doesn't make ghosts a ling counter. Given enough queens and hatches, Nestea could've probably produced several hundred lings and sent them in wave after wave after upgrading them to 3/3 with adrenals. | ||

Snipe the overseers, cloak, what you gonna do? Ghosts 2 shot zergling fyi, they beat marines in straight fights. Add tanks and planetaries and 3/3 marines, ling bling is gonna do close to 0 damage to that ball. Remax, lose army, remax, lose away, rince and repeat. You have to kill Terran before that point with ghosts, or remove maps that can be split from the map pool (which GSL has already done). | ||

Nestea got nuked on his mining bases like four times, and lost a huge amount of drones every time. He then proceeded to make a bunch of lopsided, useless unit compositions, and squandered his 12k mineral bank. He failed to make good use of his nydus, and also executed his doom drop in MVP's main terribly. Half of the overlords didn't even unload. There wasn't anything particularly impressive in Nestea's play if you ask me. MVP on the other hand, just sat around and microed his dropships while massing his ghost mech composition and PFs. If mass tier 3 armies are the definition of "epic" games, they might as well stream bronze league ladder games. so true | ||

And the final match too, such a sloppy play by Nestea since the middle of the game, not trying to stop drops, leaving banes in overlords for ghosts to kill etc etc. FIXED KK You have to consider that the tournament used Blizzard maps, which basically allow for less free droning, something that is one of Nestea's greatest strengths. | ||
