You mean "beyond me", right ?

Actually, there is a very angry and dangerous man who has decided that zergs are not allowed to build 2 spines, and he's standing behind Servy right now.

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.

Just watch the second game. It's more standard from Nestea than the previous one. In no way and in no tournament or whatever is two hatch before 4 min before pool blind is in anyway standard against T.

Sorry but please stop saying stupid things, or maybe you didn't watch the game...


we were talking about Atlantis and then you said
the standard TvZ is still a lot of two base for Z and T
which is so false and stupid that there is no point to argue with you about anything regarding TvZ after may 2012


It is way less false and stupid than saying two hatch before pool blind is standard...


against 14/15 CC it is and regarding the map and the fact that Puma is a bit previsible in TvZ build order wise it's not surprising. 3hatch before pool isn't uncommon on Atlantis but i don't know why i'm arguing with an ignorant...
Zest fanboy.

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.


Overall the year hasn't been too bad for NesTea, though any huge tournament wins have eluded him. He has stayed in code S as usual, which is easy to dismiss but is quite a unique achievement to never not be in code S. He also got the 3rd place at IPL4 and Iron Squid earlier in the year, which is very nice. He definitely isn't as dominant as he once was, but I am not too worried about him yet. Just having an actual 1st place in a major tournament is the one thing he hasn't managed so far. He still is an amazing player as you mentioned, but ther'es something missing.

It's hard to say if he's training less, or if he's feeling physically exhausted somehow for me, but he does seem tired when you see him. Hmmm. I wonder wha'ts up.

Will be playing ForGG for a guaranteed spot for tomorrow.

That marauder hellion attack was semi all-in (no third, late tanks). And it did 0 damage. PuMa pretty much lose there. Nestea just had to macro and a move after that point.
