You actually get ahead with 6 pool vs forge first even when scouted...Catz vs Kiwikaka bo 31 taught me that :p

Wow that was really trippy. The observer switched from Nestea throwing down his third to Nestea's natural finishing, but the camera placement had both Hatcheries in exactly the same position on screen, so it looked like Nestea's third instantly finished.

U don't understand. The number of players who start in Code S is representative of where the game was in previous seasons - they qualified a number of months ago and are still going through the 'choke' of Code S. The number who make it to Ro8 is a better indication of where the game is at NOW.
If 4/8 protoss make Ro8, thats 50% chance a protoss will make it to Ro8 when he enters the GSL. Compared to 1/9 Zergs (11%) and 3/15 terrans (20%), that's pretty indicative of racial imbalance. Sorry.

That guy said he did no damage.

This game was acctually sad... Nestea goes double spire vs toss on phoenix... gets rofl stomped... even without this stupid antimuta plane browder wants to implement to replace carrier... i hope someone at blizzards hq recognizes this - toss can stop muta by building own air even without shitty replacement for carrier - sad that Nestea was not going roach hydra otherwise it might be win - this way it was BO win for toss.

It's not indicative of anything and this is not a fucking balance thread so take this crap somewhere else.

Are you really saying Nestea wasn't behind after that sixpool, REALLY?
No?
He was behind, but he wasn't in a position you can't recover from. I believe he had 8 or 9 drones when his zerglings popped, and he made pure drones once he'd made those 6 lings, he killed 1 probe, 1 pylon and the forge, as well as forcing a cannon, and 450 minerals in the early game is A LOT.

That doesn't fix it... The zerg will have 7 drones vs 16'ish probes... To kill 1 pylon and 1 forge doesn't justify being down more than 50% of the workers

Genius's play is really inspiring

Or it could just indicate that the toss players have been outplaying their opponents.
