it was still very very awesome that Nestea was about to hold that push by Seal although he couldn't

Maybe one day, players will learn how to hold off 10 pool with hatch first consistently in large maps. No more coinflip matchup anymore! Non-zerg players might feel its a very volatile matchup, but in actual fact it isn't. The only thing that's coinflip in zvz is 10p vs 14p vs 15hatch, though the gap between 14p and 15hatch can be easily overcame by someone good mechanically.

Haha, fun intense game!

Right now, I know they didn't think Seal was too big of a deal to snipe quickly, but I don't get why they didn't send out Happy after he got the 2nd kill. D:


It's not like they're sending randoms against him.
Seed has one of the best PvZ, Mvp has one of the best TvZ and NesTea has one of the best ZvZ

I know, but most of the time, they reserve your aces who have better rounded game for all 3 matchups. Happy's TvZ is around the 80% mark, while his other matchups aren't really that good making him easier to snipe in theory. I understand snipers may be made for Mvp and NesTea anyways, but the great players they are, they would still have a great chance to overcome it!

Anyways, I'm not questioning the IM coach's decision, since he is a pro team coach. I'm just wondering, and thinking aloud, and putting what I was wondering out there.

Why are MVP and Nestea so bad in team league?


Since Mvp's wrist injury he's been playing pretty bad compared to his standards. Nestea is just insanely overrated and his GSL wins have had some of the easiest paths of any winner. Nestea hasn't performed well at foreigner tournaments or against top Koreans ever really.


Uh huh.

It took you to see through the community's lies and reveal Nestea for what he really is, a scrub.

.....
You are an idiot, get out.

When I watch DRG ZvZ these day it doesn't feel coin flip at all.

Just get it over with Seal.

This is more painful than watching Flash all-kill your favorite team.

Well, presently there's still DRG. He made losira, one of the fastest players, look bad just based on mechanics alone.

Not gonna lie, right before this started, I was watching the Proleague. In my mind I was comparing the two (CJ vs KT / IM vs NsHs) and thought the GSTL games were horrible compared to the SPL games... then I saw NesTea defend that. I have hope
