Inca does seem like a mini-MC, he has the same sort of confidence. He seems like an ok guy, and I wouldn't mind that he all-inned every game if it wasn't Nada that he has eliminated. What I do mind is that we're probably going to see more all-ins against Nestea, and I'm not sure I'll enjoy watching Nestea holding off cheeses and then preceding to automatically win games due to the advantage he has.

I like Nestea, he seems pretty humble, and his summary of the difference between him and other Zergs is pretty accurate. His play style isn't very unique, he just does it better than other players and that sort of seems like the mindset of the whole IM team, MVP is basically the same among Terrans.

LOLWUT.

Glad it was a 3-0. It'd be a slur on NaDab to have played more than 3 games of this calibre....


To be fair, the last game when his all in failed he managed to transition out of it beautifully and ended up winning. So he is obviously capable of playing macro games and quite well (even though it was Nada's mistake that lost him that game).

I honestly think nada lost that game more then he won it, he was sooo slow on the reaction for ghosts, but he was ahead or even on upgrades had more bases and a higher supply count he just got overconfident and thought he could dodge the storms i guess because he didnt start a ghost academy until he was already dead pretty much.

People seriously needs to start to make a difference between "good" and "fun". I love macro-games as much as anyone, but I won't deny that I sometimes in the most sadistic of ways enjoy cheeses too.
What I've shamefully discovered for myself is that the difference between when I go: "OMFG I WANT TO CRUCIFY BITBYBIT.PRIME AND F*CKING KILL HIS MOTHER AND RAPE HIS SISTER" and
"OMFG THAT 6-POOL IS SO GODDAMN BEAUTIFUL I WILL DONATE ALL MY SAVINGS TO BUY A BEACHHOUSE TO FRUITDEALER"
The difference is ofc bias, and yeah I realise it doesn't make my opinions logical but at least I realize it.

Inca pisses me off, i cant beleive he would cheese his own teammate 3 games in a row its pretty disrespectful. I guess he knows he wouldnt beable to beat Nada in 3 macro games though. He did beat nada in the only macro game they played, but nada was on tilt by then IMO and even though he was way ahead his delayed ghosts are what killed him, that and overcommiting to killing the nexus. If he had been patient it would have worked into his favor for sure.

Either way going out there planning to cheese your own team mate in every game in the semi finals, sounds like a bitbybit or TSL_Rain kind of move, the audience doesnt like it and its disrespecful to your team mate even though he won i think he probably lost more fans then he made after that. At least TSL rain felt bad about it afterwards and apologized unlike inca whos super stoked he won by cheesing his opponent =/

Can't believe I somehow missed these matches, was cheering for Nada. Great interviews, and I'm wishing that this will be a great finals!

I always love good interviews. Thanks for translating.

I hope Nestea can back his words up. I would love another zerg champion.
I had a good night of sleep.

Who prepares to cheese 4 times against a teammate? Thats just bush league and his team cannot be happy about that.

- You will be facing a protoss in the finals.
I think Inca is a really good player. I know I complained a lot previously about ZvP matchups when I faced Anypro, but in practice I was win rate against them were around 90%, so I have some confidence in the matchup.


Things like this make me scratch my head but at the same time reassure me that the more mature progamers out there will/have figured out what they need to do. Hopefully he will win so that all the whiners out there can have a more mature/better hero to look up to and follow.

Inca has Eunjung backing him up, while Nestea only has Jiyeon. Since Eunjung > Jiyeon, inca will take the finals.

In all seriousness, Inca will resort to a similar mindset where he will do exactly what nestea does NOT expect, to beat him.

Who cares if it's cheese. I am hoping he wins all that money, and he will laugh at all you cheese haters sitting on his bank of cash :D

Everyone gets the "do whatever it takes to win mentality". Thats not the point. You dont gay yourself into a finals against your own teammate.

And you can sit there whilst e-sports rot because nobody wants to pay to watch 3-5 minute long games every game.

Fuck you. As a constant costumer to GSL/Nasl I feel insulted by that obvious trolling, ok to dislike the haters but anybody can see that constant cheese is detrimental to the game when someone more skilled loses against a sudden cheese/allin which even if it is well executed takes less skill/effort than a macrogame. Yeah it takes some skill and yeah they'd beat anyone of us, but when the fanfavorite and the better player gets cheese'd to death that does not make it a fun sport to watch if it's an eternal trend.

Without the threat of an early attack of any kind games would get so boring. When I think of people who think that building 5 buildings and making an attack happen early in the game, like say 6:00, as cheese, I get a little disheartened.

Makes me think if they could their build order would be the following:

16 Command center
24 command center
32 command center at gold
40 command center
42 barracks.

Would you watch this game if every game had a meta-mandatory rule of sit back for 10 minutes while players amass 5 bases?

If I am Inca, and I see my opponent is trying to get a really early economy, Im gonna call this eco- cheese, your damn straight I am gonna apply some pressure to keep him honest. Would should Inca allow himself to be eco-cheesed?
