WCG is nothing these days though with WCS taking all the spotlight and I said Individual leagues!

If I were to look at tournaments to seed players on it would be Last and ironically First - MLG finalist but foreigners bring the viewers in I think we'll see someone completely unexpected.


Last? Pity Seed? The Finals are Bo7... what a waste.


I can imagine the finals when he's 2-0 up and everyone shouts JUST DONT WIN THIS GAME :D

I think Nestea is guaranteed a seed but it's hard to see where the 2nd seed comes from - Sen has a shout making the WCS Finals from Asian bracket but not as big as a shout as others.


Whilst I can see why they would seed NesTea, I can also see people rolling their eyes and claiming its a waste, especially if he gets KO'd in Ro32 or even Ro16.

If he should win, it would be the most amazing thing ever.

edit: Couldn't be worse than seeding IdrA


if they seed nestea now i see him going 0-4 easily, idra at least took a game in code S


Where does this logic come from considering Nestea was in the same group as Idra back then and topped the group?


because nestea was better back then, much better infact than now, as of now he is worse than idra back in january


no he isn't. Not even close


well, compared to the rest of code S of course. If he was seeded and advanced to the ro16, id be incredibly surprised

Him going 0-4 last season was surprising, I wouldnt say he would "easily" get 0-4'd at all...

it wasnt surprising in the slightest, i expected it, so did many, if you go back to the thread, many were already stating he was in a slump, and he only got many votes to advance the group due to fans trying to be optimistic, not because of reality. the major upset was sparta 2-1ing nestea


Not expecting him to advance, and expecting him to go 0-4 are 2 completely different things.

i would expect him to go 0-4 in an average group
edit: also hes not seeded yet so why are we even arguing about this

I don't think Nestea is actually 'worse'. Others have gotten better and the maps and meta favor the longer games. Nestea is still a beast until the 13-15 minute mark. He destroyed Mvp today while Mvp used the same builds he did against Life. Of course, Nestea also practices a lot with Mvp and can predict his openings better.

yeah, but when the competition raises, you raise too or you go down, and he definitly became worse, just the combination of kespa players coming in, and the general competition increasing as well as nestea slumping is the reason why he doesnt appear code s level anymore

I'm now expecting someone to say Nestea is a PatchZerg - Where did you see this practice? And who's POV was it from?

If I were to look at tournaments to seed players on it would be Last and ironically First - MLG finalist but foreigners bring the viewers in I think we'll see someone completely unexpected.


Last? Pity Seed? The Finals are Bo7... what a waste.


I can imagine the finals when he's 2-0 up and everyone shouts JUST DONT WIN THIS GAME :D

I think Nestea is guaranteed a seed but it's hard to see where the 2nd seed comes from - Sen has a shout making the WCS Finals from Asian bracket but not as big as a shout as others.


Whilst I can see why they would seed NesTea, I can also see people rolling their eyes and claiming its a waste, especially if he gets KO'd in Ro32 or even Ro16.

If he should win, it would be the most amazing thing ever.

edit: Couldn't be worse than seeding IdrA


if they seed nestea now i see him going 0-4 easily, idra at least took a game in code S


Him going 0-4 last season was surprising, I wouldnt say he would "easily" get 0-4'd at all...

+ Show Spoiler +
He beat last weekends GSL final runner up today in a Bo3...


it wasnt surprising in the slightest, i expected it, so did many, if you go back to the thread, many were already stating he was in a slump, and he only got many votes to advance the group due to fans trying to be optimistic, not because of reality. the major upset was sparta 2-1ing nestea


I don't think Nestea is actually 'worse'. Others have gotten better and the maps and meta favor the longer games. Nestea is still a beast until the 13-15 minute mark. He destroyed Mvp today while Mvp used the same builds he did against Life. Of course, Nestea also practices a lot with Mvp and can predict his openings better.


I'm now expecting someone to say Nestea is a PatchZerg - Where did you see this practice? And who's POV was it from?


He didnt see the practice, they played a proper match, it should have been spoilered ;P

WCG is nothing these days though with WCS taking all the spotlight and I said Individual leagues!

That's part of it but Nestea has seen better days. If you look closely at some of his games he's seemed to have lost his decision-making edge as well. Even with lesser mechanics there's no reason why he should be getting torn apart by Fantasy and Last in the early game, or letting Byun bunker block his ramp like a chump. There's no reason why you would roach drop a bio terran like he did against Puma at IEM. Or not have killed that god damn 4th base in the team league against Byul (never forgetting this one...).
