That is the perfect counter to a one base all in, no doubt, he should have gone hydras

Nestea had a great hold of the proxy rax shenanigans, it was his own fault he lost to the banshees though. He always always goes early spores vs toss because of possible DT's, why not just a couple early spores vs terran so at least one is already done at each base and then when he sees the banshees with his overlord he has less to make. Yes I know a sporecrawler is a drone that could be mining but still, he knew he was ahead, he could afford to lose a few drones for safety's sake.

No, hydras are pretty bad...

This is why sc2 is such a great game. What a beautifully executed tricky little tactic there! Yeah, you're right. A game in which you can derp one unit to insta-win against a player who can't scout your strategy is a game which rewards practice, skill, intelligence and speed. Truly it has the makings of a good strategy game. And talking about beautifully executed - oh my! The way he build the tech labs before the starports? Oh man that took skill. Must've taken him weeks of intense practice to get the timings down. And putting marines at the edge of the base to prevent any and all scouting? No one has every thought of that before, and the level of micro it must have taken is incredible.

Nestea should be like Sheth.. "always worried about banshees"

Will zerg have to start throwing up "just in case" hydra dens at lair?

Banshee actually beats a queen in 1v1, also banshees can move around, obviously you wont be in situation where you have a banshee fighting a spore 1v1.. you will obviously position all your banshees to be able to kill 1 spore at a time. to cover all the area you would need to be very cost ineffective and make 10+ spores

people complaining about balance every time someone looses it's getting fucking retarded. seriously ? 2 port banshee is a shitty cheese and should never work against a great zerg. nestea fucked up. he didnt make any extra queens.
good build by sC, def not great.. but im glad it worked  <3 sC

your facts are wrong, 1 banshee kills 1 queen, 2 banshees kill a spore with no deaths (assuming the tiniest bit of micro)
I'm on your side, but get the facts straight dawg

I don't understand all these clowns saying Nestea should have scouted with an overlord. If you were paying attention at all, you'd have seen that right as the banshees starting building, Nestea sent a ling to the front of the base and an overlord to go inside, but Sc's base was walled off at the front, and marines were waiting for the overlord around the sides. Like a good player, Nestea saved the OV and then pulled it right outside the base to see the banshees right as they exited. Textbook perfect zerg scouting. I'm not arguing anything about Terran cheese, but these people saying that Nestea didn't try to get an OV in base or scout need to get a clue.

Lings should be able to jump into a banshee's rotors, jamming them and making it crash.
a banshee wins vs a queen.

The follow up is off 1 base after he invested in 2 starports and a bunch of banshees.

oh wait. I love the hypocrisy It's very easy to pull off and very hard to predict it. That's why every terran is using that strat to beat zerg in every TvZ games. Artosis said it, so it must be true.
To be fair, I've seen Bomber win his fair share of games with double port banshees. It's just one of those very easy to pull off cheesy one base terran all in that you must keep in mind. This and 57 others.

God damn live reports. thank you.

Nestea could've even just built 2-3 extra queens. They're useful in any fight even if it's not banshees and you can use them for transfuse/creep spread.
