I don't understand people saying Nestea is overhyped. He lost to DRG who has been the consensus best zerg in the world for awhile (although symbol is coming). Also Nestea has been in 10 straight at code S and is a 3 time champion. How is he overhyped?

Lol no? Most of the Startale Protoss had matches to prepare for. Parting is out of Code S and likely has a PvP next in Code A. Squirtle didn't think he had to prepare PvP as much as the other matchups, Sase at foreign events, etc.

It's pretty obvious that Terran has the advantage at the Endgame, but I don't believe that was within Blizzard's intentions, and personally I find it pretty BS that Terran has to resort to splitting the map and turtling to get BC/Ghost/Raven.


Couldn't agree more.
0-10min Terran time with pressure/all-in
10-50min Zerg time with whole map with creep, fast tech switch BL/Ultra/Infestor
50+min Finally Terran time again...wtf


What is this Pressure time you talk about? 4-5 Queens completely shut down ant kind of Pressure. Terran throws at Zerg and an All in is an All in

So there will be 4-5 queens with 2 rax? What's your build. teach me please.


I'm pretty sure most 2raxes aren't just "pressure" builds, 11/11 is pretty all-in.

12/14, 13/14 are all in? Wow.. I didn't know that. You must be a pro.


I... didn't say that. I said that 11/11 is pretty all-in.

Do people still do 12/14 and 13/14 pressure builds? I thought that nowadays Zergs can hold off anything other than an 11/11 with ease.

And that's the purpose of a pressure build, forcing you to build units instead of drones, not win straight out which is 11/11. 12/14 actually does it pretty well. Small tip from a masters zerg.

I use it with success in diamond. I'm happy to know it will still be viable in masters. It's just too ineffective at pro level?


Ive seen 12/14 into 2 CC's by MKP. My Go to build lately (especially now that zergs are used to scratching their balls for the first 8 minutes of the game and expecting 1 rax CC all the time).

NesTea overhyped as suspected. Just like Symbol. DRG still strongest zerg.


Huh? Even Artosis has been saying for months and months that DRG is the best zerg, its just during casts he likes to keep up with his trend of hyping Nestea just to add something extra to the cast.


Not really, they've been hyping Symbol as being equal to DRG, and NesTea as being comaparable.


Yes really. That is them hyping people up during a cast. If you ever hear Artosis outside of casting the GSL then he gives it to you straight, no extra hype attached. Outside of casting Artosis has been sticking with DRG for a good amount of time now.

I think they're talking about the whole "Creator of the Universe" stuff that Artosis jokes about.

EDIT: I'll give the advantage to Ryung. He's pretty confident in TvT and his gameplay is up there with MVP's.

He said only Parting practiced with him, which is quite the difference to "nobody else wanted to practice with me". Don't read to much into the statements

Its called the "anti-popular" syndrome. People who wants to be original would say someone who is strong is actually weak. Just like what happened to Jeremy lin.

Ryung should win IMO.
His best match-up has always been TvT.

It's probably some guy who's annoyed at Artosis' hyping/Nestea jokes^ It annoyed me a while back too, but it's much more casual now and they know he's not the best player going around so w/e.

Curious is a strange case. He's amazing in code A and mediocre in Code S

Why would you scratch your balls? I twist my nipples and do a roach bane all in. Feels so good with that baneling explosion.

At least Naniwa will be forced to practice his PvZ finally. Hopefully he'll improve enough to stop auto-losing against every zerg that knows how to use hotkeys at LAN events.

I'm going to bed. Anyone could take Ryung vs Nova, but NesTea will demolish the winner...





And MC will win his third title, I'm calling it now. Unless Naniwa gets really lucky, this GSL is his.
