Glad that I was right about that but disappointed DRG lost still, really want to see him go far in Code S. Want to see DRG, MMA, MKP, MC, and a few others in RO8 this season. ^_^ Who has the best ZvP exactly? Nestea, Losira and Leenock all have far superior ZvPs. NesTea results since September: 0-1 Genius, 0-1 Huk, 1-2 Naniwa, 1-2 Naniwa. Now try again without making a clueless post. To be fair, we haven't seen NesTea play a recent ZvP in-form. He was quite noticeably out of form when he played against HuK, and his small slump continued through MLG and the Blizzard Cup. I would say that his games this season were the first he played at his full potential in a long time. NesTea's ZvP is really overrated. He had good results in past but it was vs average players like Anypro, Inca or HongUn.
He also beat MC with it, it's oke you wanne agrue but atleast name all Protoss not only what you consider the bad ones.

If we are going by GSL stats which are the only thing that truly matters: Nestea has the best ZvP(statistically) as well in actuality.

I hate to say it but this^.
Nestea gets overrated a lot. Not saying he isn't one of the best players in the world, but people just jump on his dick without any real understanding of what they're saying a lot of the time.

Genius' build is just designed to deal with mutaballs. Phoenixes vs mutas >< Mnnnnnn the fact is mutas will always win vs pheonix if pheonix isnt stacked and mutas are, the concept of phoenix counter muta is flawed, because they dont have splash dmg, so muta stacking will always win vs phoenix bbecause they stack worse, why? Well if you have 15 mutas concetrated in 1 point only the outlying pheonixes will shoot and all mutas will shot at once 1 shotting 1 phoenix and doing dmg to 2nd. Also the fact is that muta can focus fire while pheonix not. Phoenix is only the support unit vs big muta balls. And zerg players who lose mutas to phoenix just doesnt know that you can nullify them with micro. Corruptors are useless as they are slow and can be outrun. And frankly only 1 player in world does that and its dimaga which baffles me because hes doing it since more than 1 year... its nothing new yet i see players believe in phoenix > muta myth. Because they thing phoenix is the main dealer which is not because its storm/archon that prevents clumping or stalker/cannon because its the main dps. What im saying of course doesnt mean 5 mutas will win vs phoenix what i mean is stacking power of muta which increases dramatically.
phoenix are pretty good against mutas, just not in a one vs one situation, because both have to be stacked and then mutas deal extra damage, also the zerg will have more mutas most likely. You use phoenix to have a fast overall protection on your bases, few stalkers along the phoenix or a pair of canons and the mutas can't just chase the phoenix, because they would get damage the longer they try to get the phoenix. And well talking about direct engagements, the real problem why mutas are good in pvz, with phoenix around the mutas die before anything else in a direct engagement, especially since the splash will be redirected on ground units, if there is any thanks to guardian shield.

Seem to remember hongun and anypro hitting many Ro8s/Ro4s between them.
agreed. they were the top protosses at the time. the only good pvz player though was probably MC and nestea didnt get a chance to face him. however nestea was upwards of like 85% in zvp for a long time which is still ridiculous

JYP should take some lessons in PvT from Genius.
|
There are no Zergs as consistent as MMA or MVP, and thats the bottomline.
Probably NesTea can get back to his former glory, which remains to be seen.
Pretty disappointing results for DRG and Leenock so far, lost quite a bunch of money.

You forget MC and Killer which I guess is convenient for your point so you ignore them. Hongun has always been a solid Toss anyways. What other players are there to beat historically for him? That is every good Toss from the older GSL's. He simply hasn't played some of the newer ones.

Mostly cuz Artosis jumps on his dick a lot of the time

Genius's build is very safe, but it's also incredibly boring cause no one can attack till 3 base 200/200 D:

Had high hopes for Curious but his Code S play seemed rather lacking, also Losira, suprisingly lost to Parting.
Maybe your right for sure about the overal statistics, but i could not tell currently wich zerg is best vs Protoss.

Historically Nestea has been the best ZvP. His play took a huge dip after he lost to Huk and is only recently on an upswing. Not only that but Nestea's overall results in ZvP still completely dwarf DRGs even with his recent slump included. Matter of fact, Nestea has performed better than DRG in every tournament he's been except for the Blizzard cup. How about MLG? NesTea lost to Naniwa and Haypro, DRG had much better results. But you obviously don't follow SC2, no need to argue with you.
DRG lost to Naniwa at MLG as well..

such a late charge, could be the end of him

Because he never uses punctuation, so no one understands him anyway. 
sadly he makes more sense when he's posting drunk.
