g1 nanis win vs mvp - solid win nothing more to say

g3 nanis win vs mvp - if mvp had 2 medis around the map(when the base trade happened) he would have forced nani to stay around his proxy nexus(and he would have eventually overran him because of his high eco - having an exp at the gold and being able to double mule) and if nani did decide to move out(which he did) he could have sniped his nex and force a draw AT WORSE, which would be highly unlikely because he could have just picked his units up @ his proxy cc and then he could have landed his cc's at the opposing bases, then all he needed to do was unload all his units @ the ramp where naniwas units wernt at.. it would have been impossible for naniwa to prevent mvp from securing one of the 2 bases, but to be fair to mvp that sort of rationalizing is extremely hard when ur in that sort of situation, that being said if mvp made the correct decision naniwa should have loss that game

g2 nanis win vs nestea, if nestea saw naniwa leaving his base(keeping a ling outside of p's base is something that is extremely standard) then he would have held his push pretty easily imo, he made 14 drones right when naniwa was moving out.. cant see him dying to nanis push if he made a round of ling roachs + 3 queens instead, then after he held the push the game was basically over cus nani cut probe production and nestea would have been on 3bases, blind allin vs blind greedyness - blind allin prevails(but the defender has a huge advantage in this situation, all he basically has to do is scout + defend and the game is over)

g3 nanis win vs nestea - good game in general, nanis decision to block nesteas nat with his cannons was extremely smart because it forced nestea to make alot of lings but if nestea played perfectly and prevented(and yes i know making the correct decision in every situation is extremely hard but thats something i expect out of nestea) the cannons from going up he would have been in a HUGE lead because nani was forced to make 2 cannons @ his main and his exp was extremely delayed, the cannon block + nesteas failed 1st attack(when he attacked nanis nat and tried to pickoff sentrys which failed) coupled with nestea taking a 3rd and nanis followup b.o(light pressure while took his exp and kept pumping probes) did much more damage than it should have because nestea wasted too many units in the early game allowed nani to gain a big advantage because he didnt lose alot of units and forced alot of units out of nestea, he took advantage of early game advantage by executing the perfect follow up and nestea just didnt have enought eco to hold his blink stalker allin

all in all im happy that nani won especially because nestea played extremely greedy while being blind, when u play that way u deserve to lose to allins tbh
