It sounds like there would be a 3 way tie if life wins this, nestea wins his match :o

I think we all know who we expect to win. But Nestea is making me worry hardcore right now.

(maybe for seeding into bracket?) It is necessary. Winner advances

He would be tied mathmatically but the way they break ties is if the tied players have played each other before, they go off who won them.
Life, MKP, Nestea all tied scores. But Life has lost to both MKP and Nestea, therefore his tied score is meaningless. Now it's between whoever wins between MKP and Nestea. If Nestea wins its tied and Nestea advances because he beat both the tied players. If MKP wins, he broke the tie and clearly advances.

SuperNova vs. Life doesn't even matter - the winner of MKP and Nestea will advance.

Therefore, only the MKP vs Nestea match matters

So what happens now if nestea beats marineking? Do they have a rematch? yesterday, MVP advancing made a lot of sense because he beat the other two players with the same score, but in this case, MKP beat genius and genius beat nestea, i would think they should have to play twice or something.

No because NesTea would have won head to head against the other two 2-2 players, so he'd advance.

I think the map favours 2 base play as neither player could take a third, which Is better for protoss.
Rematch on Taldarim cross positions. Zerg is the only race that can take a third on Crossfire...Genius stayed ahead the whole game, NesTea deserved to lose. The only reason the game took so long was because you can't secure your base against mutas. If NesTea had a standardly sized ground army, which he should have at that point, that would have been a very different game.

Genius is 1-3. Nestea wins any 2-2 tie because he would have head to head vs mkp and life

lol people like Nestea/MVP really don't care about this tournament. I guarantee they didn't do any sort of specific preparation for them. Nestea most likely hasn't done dedicated ZvP practice since his last GSL victory. He has not played a protoss in GSL since then and the Terran domination made him practice massive amounts of ZvT.

Right, so somehow he tries the same and puts the same amount of effort into GSL and into smaller, less prestigious tournaments and yet plows through GSL, getting 3 titles, one without losing a GAME, and then does rubbish in non-GSL tourneys? If you really think Nestea tries as hard for these tourneys, you're deluding yourself.
