He's never been to any LAN foreign tournaments so you can't say that. The reason he loses online foreign tournaments is because of the slight lag (I would think lag affects how Nestea plays more than any other player), but also I think that Nestea only played 1-2 foreign tournaments, lost early, and doesn't try any more.....he could do really well in foreign tournies if he tried alot harder.

Lag would be an excuse if he played like one tourney and lost...but he has participated in 4 tourneys and he has a 33 percent win rate...MC won an online tourney, the lag isn't 33 percent winrate bad.


Wait which 4 tournys has nestea participated in? I have no doubt that nestea would utterly destroy every single foreigner out there.

You're right SC2 isn't an esport. Is that what you want me to say?


Jesus people are so over-sensitive. eSports = professional gaming IE : GSL, NASL, etc and the players that participate make up eSports.

Random newbies like uniden aren't a part of it. It's like saying a little league baseball game is part of professional baseball.


It's part of the sport called Baseball.


Yes, and games people like uniden play are part of the game called Starcraft 2. Glad we agree it's not related to eSports.

Baseball is a sport.
SC2 is an esport.
Little league baseball is a part of a sport.
Bronze level games are a part of an esport.

Wat?


I said PROFESSIONAL sports. It is not the same thing.

Who are you rule that ESPORTS is Professional Gaming. That makes no sense, nor are you some sort of omnipresent all-knowing being that can decide what's what. That's logic's job.

Also, has everyone forgotten about Mvp?

It's the definition of e-sports.

Professional Baseball is not the sport, Baseball itself is. ಠ_ಠ

Baseball isn't related to the definition of e-sports.

Just stop, this dumb, irrelevant argument doesn't need to be wasting pages of posts in the SOTG thread, here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E-sports now take this and your opinions and agree to disagree before i pull the rest of my hair out as i go through the thread

Dimaga is a top zvz player, I'll accept that loss.

TSL and star wars were online right? If so that crosses out all legitimacy of the result.

Idk how saga was played, was it lan?

Well considering Nestea said he will most likely never play in another online tourney he obviously thinks it is. I am more inclined to believe the best player in the world than a random TL poster.

also MC>nestea MC has way more tourney results :D

mc has not played nestea since season 2, where nestea beat him. Of course that was also before mc got good, though nestea improved alot too since then. no real way to compare them at this point.

Nestea has waaay better overall GSL history which is the most important thing. MC has 2 first round exits in a row for most recent GSLs. While Nestea has a victory and a ro16.
