Nestea's training with Catz shows in this 3 hatch play?

Three hatch is standard these days, lol.

Before pool in TvZ? no...


against 14/15 CC yes


Except he scout the 14/15 cc after he made the move. He did it blind...

Considering the current metagame involves lots of greed from both sides, it's not 100% blind.


And still a lot of two rax. And yes it was blind, because he scouted nothing at all. Also the standard TvZ is still a lot of two base for Z and T so I don't know what you're talking about...


you're stucked before may?
90% of the TvZ include a fast 3rd CC.
11/11 was a bo win and yeah that was a blind risk, but he may have studied Puma's play on Antiga. I don't remember to many 11/11 from Puma anyway.
Zest fanboy.

If the standard for ZvT is for Zerg to have the same number as bases as Terran, then players are getting worse. As far as I can tell, and in the vast majority of games I've watched and played in recently, most players go for a fast CC as Terran, and a fast 3rd as Zerg.


Fast third is not equal to 2 hatch before pool blind...

I guess I forgot to mention the fast 3rd CC for Terrans, my mistake.

It is very obvious Nestea is not really in great shape, not only gamewise but healthwise. He looks ekhausted. His games against taeja were quite decent, almost every other terran would have lost there.
Just recently, Nestea 3-0'd MVP for an MLG Prizefight. He still can play very well, if he has a good day, but he seems to just not train as much as when he was world's #1 zerg.
Maybe he just does not have the motivation to train 6-8 hours a day anymore. It might change with HOTS, as he was always THE best new-strat developer.

edit: WHAT THE HELL? That hold for example was the old NESTEA. so many other zergs would have just died there.

Wow, really want to see MC vs Frogg!
I believe in the almighty Grötslev! -- I am never serious and you should never believe a thing I say. Including the previous sentence.
