In other words, cheese all his games?


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

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.


Dude this isn't necessary. Calm down. I don't think anyone is arguing that constant cheese is amazing. I think the point is that the all-ins were specifically targeted due to Nada's playstyle.

You could blame Nada for not being prepared if you really wanted to be sadistic. I seriously doubt Inca will plan the same thing for the finals. Nestea would be expecting it.

Jiyeon is about 10x the women Eunjung is and you see that full on shoulder clutch Nestea had going on, uh huh, she was swoonin' in his arms I'll tell you what. Anyways Eunjung looks kinda like a boy too, just sayin'. Inca better hope he doesn't win lest that beastial creature take him back to it's decrepit lair for a victory, "surprise".

Don't get me wrong, I love Nestea big time - but why on earth was he complaining about ZvP when he had a retarded 90% win rate against them? Does he not know a lot of players look up to him (and thus quote him as evidence)? Adding more fuel to the PvZ imbalance myth is something I'm personally quite unhappy with =(

Are you implying that Rain and Bitbybit didn't use a strategy to beat their opponents?

They did beat some players using their strategy. They won. Won.

Now the OTHER players got better, and you can see why we don't see so much SCV all ins and 2-base all ins. Because the players GOT BETTER.

Nestea wasn't better than Rain when he lost to him. He was better after when he learned how to deal with his strategy. Its almost like no one in TL has every competed. How the hell do we establish skill in something if its not by who wins and who loses?

rofl you've got to be joking or trolling because that's honestly one of the dumbest things I've ever read

Rain was better than nestea for abusing a strategy that literally took no skill to pull off? how do we establish skill? It's obvious, when you win straight up without doing a friggin scv rush 3 times in a row in the first 3 minutes of the game



Lets say we are in a dick waving competition. And I was sick at dick waving. My dick is waved at a frequency double the amount of my competitor. The trajectory was a perfect oval, the speed was blazing, and I won the dick waving contest. Despite my win, here you are saying "well look this other guy, he had a much bigger dick." Well that is wonderful, I'm sure his wife is absolutely ecstatic about his abnormally large dick, and it would make for many entertaining nights. In fact, I bet his wife would be much happier than my wife. But you know what? I was waving my dick like no other and I won the dick waving contest.

Maybe he felt like he needed to work to hard to defeat them compared to the toss?
He prolly has his reasons

I agree and also he did say he gets help from MC that leads me to believe they do play a similar style (both being from oGs and stuff).

*scribbles down Inca rule*

Anyways, All-ins are apart of the game. He clearly stated Nada saw him play macro games every game they played before hand... Wouldn't you be prepared to play just macro games. Obviously Nada will be prepared next time.

INCA FIGHTING

(even though you lost me my liquidbet)

You know Nestea is going to be ready for anything... I hope the ogs house will prepare inca for the games of his life

Lol Nestea would be sad to see what you wrote. His favourite T-ara member is Eunjung.

I had much more fun watching Nestea's semi-final, but dang it, I never expected Inca to beat Nada, so big props to Inca.

Somebody mentioned that Nada went 1-Barracks-Expand every game, something that leaves you open to all-ins. Nada didn't adapt and lost. As somebody mentioned earlier, it was very hard to stop the marine/scv rushes that for instance Rain used. Stopping what Inca did means you have to use a aggressive build, or a safer build. Anyway you have to stop relying on your risky macro build.

As far as I can remember, oGsMC used really risky (macro) builds in Code S and ended up on the up/down matches because of it. In the up/down matches he used much safer builds.

It's like when Nestea goes ahead and spine crawler rushes in the first game. It was AWESOME and tailored to fit his opponents style. Being able to go after your opponents weakness is a skill to awknowledge, not something to redicule.
