I'm pretty sure for both the hots showmatches, he just showed up without practicing (or practicing much)

It's ready for release when the SP campaign is finished and polished, they'll balance the rest of the stuff as they go along, like they did with WoL.
Obviously it's imbalanced now, not as badly as WoL was at release but it is and pros will figure out more and more completely imbalanced exploits that can destroy tournaments as they play more games.
You just have to accept that for the first few months everything will be a bit volatile and results don't necessarily represent player skill completely.
Just watch and fun and try not to root for one race too hard, depending on the state of the game and on which one it is you might get depressed about results or get too used to success and get depressed after inevitable nerfs. :D
And no way NesTea has more experience with HotS than Creator, that isn't even close. The Prime kid has practiced quite a bit, like all of his teammates.

I doubt it, Prime is pretty HEAVILY into Hots, more so than they should considering up coming matches TBH.

Creator had 210 ladder matches played as of last night. I dont know the timespan for playing all of them though. His ladder account is SKTRain

Prime is really OP right now. They have both SKTRain and KTFlash on the same team

Wouldn't draw much from this. The games were played live on Gisado's stream right after Nestea gave his post-interview in code A in which he stated he hadn't really been playing HotS. Had a lv 10 account on the stream as well, so take from that what you will.

Really? I wonder why they don't pick their names. I find it irritating how they name themselves after good players like that -_-.

Yeah idk. It seems to be a Prime thing. KTFlash = Marineking, SKTRain = Creator, CJEffOrt = Emir/HogU whatever his name is. that new zerg

And Creator named himself after NesTea after all.

After watching the series I feel like phoenix shouldn't be able to decimate mutalisks so easily. They have the range, do bonus damage, and attack while they move. While it doesn't hurt all match ups it seems to easily cut through muta plays, maybe if they could remove the bonus damage vs muta? IDK, there needs to be some drawback for the phoenix maybe reduce shield HP or something.

I also feel like phoenixes are way too good against mutas, it just seems so 1 dimensional "oh you went mutas? good cause I got phoenixes! I WIN!"

so funny they increased the muta speed by 5% or something to see more muta play but buffed the hardcounters 10 times more lol, well muta all the way in zvz at least

If phoenix didn't hard counter muta, protoss would have no variety at all and no follow up to defending it. Zerg would go muta, protoss would answer with blink + storm, and zerg would take every base on the map, pressure with swarm host, and then push with the doom army that protoss doesn't have gas to stop.
And really, it's not exactly any harsher than other unit responses in the game. It's not like zerglings do better against colossi or brood lords do better against vikings.
