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


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


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.


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...).


Why did you have to remind me about that team league match, ugh

lucifron is actually at WCS (go terrans!!!), I was thinking of a 32 man field but I don't think casters can survive that

Oops, Keen should definitely be in there. Guess we will have to have 24 terran field and 4 groups of 6 instead.

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's still very good zerg pre-hive, which is what he always was. We saw this even in his Code A match this season. He absolutely dominated all the way through the early to mid stages of the game with muta/ling and then went beyond full foreigner at hive stage.

It wasn't a problem when he was winning because the games never really went to hive. Now when all zergs need to go hive to win games, he's not winning anymore. He's not doing anything worse or better than when he won back-to-back GSLs, the game just evolved past him.

it designed that way so more people have a chance to get into code S
the community complained last time that the format was too hard to break into

but yes I agree BO1 sucks

A charity lottery, actually. They failed in the last stage of Code A but get a wildcard chance to get into Code S. Pretty sure Bo1 is fair for that, especially for groups of 5 and 6.
