Of all players I would say that Nestea would be the one who would adjust to it though. But hey it would be really cool to see the panzer general roll over Nestea and the koreans would be like "the fuck is going on here, how can one win like that?" It is the game I look forward to the most and as much as I like Nestea I will cheer for the panzer general as well  -______________________- On March 25 2011 04:22 Vapaach wrote: I think saying Goody will take down Nestea is ballsy to say the least. I think Nestea is a stronger player in pretty much every conceivable aspect of sc2. LOL the only minor upset i can see happening is qxc beating genius, genius hasn't been great recently, but qxc is lacking on practice. | ||

People are over-estimating qxc and underestimating Naniwa imo. I think Naniwa's going to play so good it won't even really be close. And Genius, while maybe not the best in the world, IS code S. AND recently beat MVP in a Bo3. qxc is absolutely nowhere near the level of Genius, I have a feeling it's going to be pretty bad.

If you watched GSTL, you'd know MVP has been doing pretty good lately. I'm not to worried about him. ^^ | ||

If you don't follow the Starcraft scene intimately, then you vote for who you've heard of and assume they are better. | ||

Getting matches where the koreans get 97%of the votes make me laugh quite a bit too. In some cases its justified, in others no. Popularity + country flag > analysis of actual skill and gameplay. But eh most people dont have the time to really go deep in that stuff so i cant blame uninformed guesses or votes. | ||

Genius < qxc - Genius beat Mvp, yes, but is historically bad against Terran. Now look at the Terran he HAS lost to... Rain, Rainbow, and DAVIT. All cheesers and/or Harassed based Terrans, exactly what qxc is, exactly what Mvp is not. So what I'm getting at here is that Genius is weak to harass and cheese, not weak to a Terran that tries to go macro against him (cough Mvp), so I think qxc, the always agressive harasser, will take this. NesTea < GoOdy (could go either way though) -Like others have been saying, NesTea is not preparing at all for the GoOdy style, and I think that will take him off guard. It's like playing against ActionJesuz for the first time, NORMALLY, you would know exactly what's coming at you, and plan accordingly, and that is where GoOdy probably loses the most, when his opponents know exactly what he's going to do, and plan accordingly. But for a first time playing against GoOdy, you might not know what to do against the Panzer General. That said, it will all come down to how NesTea reacts to this. He is after all, probably the best Zerg in the world, so you have to think that he would respond better than any other player who's playing in the dark against an extremely unique stylistic player. So this one is really hard to predict because it all comes down to how NesTea reacts. But I will go with GoOdy, because that would probably put me in first for Liquibet :p, gotta have hope. Ret > Naniwa -Ret won there recent meet-up, Naniwa recently lost to Sen, and although Naniwa recently beat IdrA, Ret is going to no doubt study about why and how IdrA lost to prevent that from happening to him. To be fair to Naniwa, he will be doing the same thing with his own recent losses to Zergs, but I think his 28-14 record this month is inflated because a lot of those victories are over mediocre opponents. Also, for Ret, he hasn't lost to a Protoss in a Bo3 or over since January...... and that loss was to MC (at Kapersky). Other than losing to MC, he hasn't lost a Bo3 since 2010, at MLG where he lost to Tyler (however he did lose to Minigun and Kiwikaki both each once in Bo1s since then, but still in January). Ret takes this.' Mvp > Adelscott - I always have felt like, that Adelscott's losses come from him making mistakes consistently, or throwing away the game, and his wins are when his opponent does the same. Not to be harsh of Adel, but that's just what I see. That means that ever-solid Mvp is a HORRIBLE opponent for Adel. Mvp did lose to Genius and Alicia recently yes, but they are world class (S-Class) Protoss, Adelscott is not. Also in the GSTL Mvp + Show Spoiler + redeemed himself by beating 2 of TSL's finest Protosses, only to lose TesteR | ||

In the terran world in europe you have mech players, bio players, biomech players and then you have goody. Its not just the full mech, he HAS a style with very specific timmings and harrassments and defences. He's played like he does for hundreds of games which makes the matchup not a zvt or pvt but a zvgoody or pvgoody. If one guy can mess up your mind with a different style that's him.

But eh most people dont have the time to really go deep in that stuff so i cant blame uninformed guesses or votes. in a bracket contest lop-sided vote results are too be expected. Its not that people think that he has a 97% chance of winning but just that 97% of the people think they have a better chance to win the bracket contest with that result. | ||
