He has, and I'd bet it's mostly the fact that there's actually a crowd there now. Lots of hosts need a crowd to feel more at home, it'd be really odd hosting a tournament with 10 people in the crowd like it was yesterday.

He just seems a lot more confident out there today.

Not to mention even an observer would've made all the difference.

Metropolis is actually a pretty bad macro PvZ map, at least imo. There's few avenues of approach, you can block those two middle corridors off with spines and sit on top of them and slow push.

Granted Nestea threw a won game against Killer on this very map, but I really don't think it's good for macro-centric PvZ. Seen Stephano stomp MC on it at least twice from recollection


2 base all in works well in metropolis because rush distance is actually shorter than most maps, contraty to popular false belief.

Not sure, Nestea really had much.


Hard to say really. FFs give roaches absolute hell. Burrow+no observer basically made all those sentries -- pretty much his whole army -- worthless. With good FFs... things can go bad for a zerg.


If he went robo, it's basically the anypro build, and if anyone knows how to beat the anypro build, it's Nestea.

Damnit, what did Nestea say? I had a commercial go off on the stream.

Anyone wanna tell me what was asked?


Q1: Have you heard of MFeast before this?
A1: Yes, heard he's a very good player.

Q2: What do you think of the skill level of the foreigners in general?
A2: They are improving very fast and quite good and it'll be a very difficult tournament

Q3: Are you aware Artosis has a man-crush on you?
A3: Interpreter guy says "He likes him too".

That's the gist of it I think.

Edit: Althoughhhhh.. I do have my serious doubts about how the interpreter translated "man-crush"

Better odds for Kas to 2-0 Nestea then. :p

I think it works well precisely because it is such a good map for Zergs to play greedy macro styles. Rush distance isn't even that important with Protoss all-ins given that a lot of their strength comes from pylon/WP reinforcements

He took a game off Violet, Violet beat Mvp, Mvp beat Nestea. Anything's possible.

This kind of logic does not really work.


I didn't mean it as logic, as the anything's possible should have shown.

Kind of worried about Nestea against Kas. He should still be the favorite, but he's shown a great deal of ineptitude in ZvT as of late. It's always been his worst mu, but never this bad. If an upset happens in this group that's probably the most likely. :/

actually metropolis is kind of tough for protoss in PvZ because its so easy for the zerg to go straight to 5 base. That's why you see SO MANY immortal sentry builds there. Really disappointing that Feast did this allin instead, though.

True, but you will have less stalkers if you go robo+obs. or your push is delayed even more and Zerg is on 3 bases. And you don't know whether the Zerg did go for burrow so it could be wasted resources.
