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 think noone really disagrees that nestea should have lost that game the way he played. But that does not take away from the fact that ghosts are too good of a unit. The cloaking ability combined with snipe and emp makes them a too usefull unit. They are like Ghosts frombw combined with science vessels and a sniping ability. Let the emp go in the raven and make it a projectile and everything would be fine. | ||

No they don't, do you even play the game? Ghost are so much more expensive and they shoot slower than marines. The only terran ground unit that's worse against lings than ghosts are Thors without support. | ||

Heart of the Swarm and Legacy of the Void should be renamed to Aliens United. There, zerg and protoss units will all merge and become the ultimate allies to defeat the good and powerful terran. All units will then have regen + shields. perfect. | ||

Adding ghosts into the mix only makes it harder for ling bling because ghosts are fearsome fighting units. When Zerg loses for going lair tech all game, people say 'lol needed infestor brood lord. When Zerg techs to Hive and Terran reacts, people go 'make lingoes nooooooob). What people should see is that a 200/200 heavy gas beating Z at 200/200 any setup can be balanced. A 200/200 Mech T vs 200/200 Z in BW Terran would destroy Z. In SC2 you need to control T army size and gas income. | ||

To remax 2 times with ling/bling you would need over 300 larva... | ||

Poll: Was that final match "rigged"? The fix was in (54) They both played legitimately (28) I'm not sure (7) 89 total votes Your vote: Was that final match "rigged"? (Vote): The fix was in I just want to see what the consensus is, personally I wanted Nestea to win so at first I was mad when he started losing, but after the fourth or fifth nuke, the 14k/4k in the bank, the drop where he didn't even unload all his units and then suicided the overlords... That's when I started thinking it was a showmatch. I'm not sure how many people watch tournaments besides Blizzcon (I'd hope on TLnet that most of you watch a lot of tournaments) but have you EVER seen Nestea do a lategame like that? That's not just him playing beneath his level, that's like LeBron James getting dunked on by a middleschooler because he lifted the kid up to the hoop. He saw the ghost composition and he built 100% broodlords and then a-moved them in. Also, MVP who pushed aggressively EVERY game took out alllllll those overlords and units in the drop, he's one of the best in the world, he knew where that left Nestea (supply blocked with little or no army) and does he push? No, he waits nicely for the brood lords to finish so they can have a grand finals showmatch battle in the middle of the map. That's my opinion on the subject, just way too many fishy plays by both players. | ||

Also you can run banelings to where u see the snipes are coming from and detonate them. And finally, he had overseers that were not grouped in that attack. It was ridiculous how nestea threw away that game. He broke under pressure although he was ahead most of the game. | ||
