Nestea running around his whole army in one command group. As well as using his baneling bust to not go for the third?! he could of killed like 30+ more scv and even with 4orbitals there was no way that taeja was going to be able to produce 80 scvs that quickly. Nestea had if he would of just gone for the third when he did his follow up baneling attack.

he's gonna have to. Only way Liquid's gonna be able to win.
We promise with a view to hope, but the reason to "accomplish" what we promised would be fear.

See, it's the difference between casuals and experience players - the experienced players know that after the bust didn't end the game, Taeja was always ahead. Go ahead and kill 60 SCVs, who the fuck cares? With 4 orbitals established that early he has more income anyways.


Yup. I think nestea would have been quiet far ahead if he didn't lose his natural hatchery (I think it was natural?) and quiet a few drones. That drop made it so that nestea wasn't super far ahead unfortunately.
When I think of something else, something will go here

best strategy for im imo would be for another long long game to hope to run taeja out of stamina.


If Taeja wins this one..Liquid should Send out their Entire Roster in the Next BO9 and send Taeja as the Ace....
And Allow him to sleep in his Lair of Destruction till the Horn of Demon is Used to Awaken him once again
Thy Shall Die Alone...or emm..something like that.

Note: Complaining about mules in the Taeja - Nestea game in no way reflects reality. At the beginning, Taeja had 4 OCs and a fifth command center. At the end... I can't even count. It was bloody ridiculous.

I have never seen that many OC in a tournament game.
Yes, I email sponsors... to thank them. Don't post drunk, kids. My king, what has become of you?

I can't decide if I want other liquid players to have a chance to play in next bo9 or just to see TaeJa roll through 10 straight games.

He's so unbelievably good!

NesTea the most cost-inefficient Zerg player ever. So long with ling/bane... constantly trading gas against minerals, losing his hatcheries left and right. No match against Taeja actually. Even though it was a long game, it was not a close one.


i dont get how a player like nestea can waste about 100 banelings against drops thoughout the game...

Seriously.

But I cannot really blame the lower league players or spectator-only guys. Because honestly, it's part of a casters job to make clear what's going on. And Kevin and DoA just don't provide that inside at all it feels.

Taeja just played with Nestea O_o

I'm so ever hard of Taeja right now


He took out 23 drones including the natural. Weakening the main enough for the hive kill later-on. Taeja was never behind this game. The additional Orbital helps a ton as well.
