It's just fun to hype nestea, we already have all the necessary gifs!

Keen used to be so happy, but then Nada retired and ever since then he hasn't had the heart to perform another ceremony.

So happy to see Nestea playing again. There's just something special about him.

Wait is the game paused currently or did someone drop?

Tactical pause by Fenix
Edit: Well, he paused first, and looks like it might have been due to lag/connection issues

that's what made Keen one of my favorite Terrans a long time ago.

Seems like fenix needs to learn to scan before doing a drop as expensive as that. That's what I see koreans do.

Losing streak snapped!

That was pretty poor play by Fenix, I wonder if he had severe lag problem.
|
That was ByuN level.
ByuN level.

Rather awful play from Fenix. You could tell that he wasn't paying enough attention to his units (Medivacs, marines, etc.) during several points of that game. I'm not even sure what he was thinking in the last moment. Minigun could have killed him earlier, but for some reason backed off. Fenix then throws his luck by attacking into a maxed deathball with a much lower supply bio army + some scvs..
