[Dooraven]

No wonder, he didn't even attack with all his army, sending two small armies is lol..

 

[ghst]

Lol someone justify that. Naniwa outplayed him the whole game. And contrary to Khaldors BS Naniwa cut probes for ages.

he also made the mistake of thinking stalkers are good units in any kind of pitched battle.

 

[Pandaman]

it only looks like naniwa was up about 6-10 probes tops. :\

 

[Yoshichan]

No wonder, he didn't even attack with all his army, sending two small armies is lol..

Maybe he was worried for drops?

edit: not really in the mood for ZvZ... brb

 

[vicissitudes]

Oh man, Nestea versus young Nestea.

I wonder if Nestea's ZvZ is still good lol.

 

[Q8D3vil]

yeah i agree, i mean his macro must be really amazing if he can support +5 gateways and 1 robo off 36 probes.

There's something wrong with an all-in if a mechanically handicapped player can pull off something with a high success rate.
Even worse is when it's like terran all-ins, where you can actually recover from a failed one.

The expected return is way too high for the risk taken.

this only happens when the opponent is really bad player and don't know how to do follow ups.

 

[Dooraven]

Meh, I think nani may have won if he had used his 6 zealots in that army. They just stood there doing nothing.

That is EXACTLY the building and probe count that its pretty much agreed says you NEED to defend a 1/1/1. You clearly don't know the matchup. And that was a crippled 1/1/1 because Polt lost a ton of shit and SCVs early. Yet it still worked with an almost braindead attack. The risk:reward is borked with that strategy and you know it. Everyone knows it and has known it for a long time.

 

[Pandaman]

makes no sense to 10pool with speed and hide the lings... the advantage is only in the slightly quicker speed which is meaningless if you're not on the map to take advantage of your upgrade.

.

No. That's exact the purpose of an all-in.

 

[Pandaman]

nestea smh

 

[vicissitudes]

I don't think Nestea should have gone for that hatchery so early...make a spine instead.

 

[EviLore]

Well, this settles things.

You guys in copper league obviously play another game than me.

 

[DerZuhälter]

Nestea: So disappointing.

 

[V_Arnold]

Jesus.

"Leenock is ahead but only by a margin"

A margin of WHAT?

 

[Tacitus_]

Nesteas fall is almost complete.

 

[Q8D3vil]

if master mean copper then sure im copper league

 

[Yoshichan]

You guys in copper league obviously play another game than me.

:'D

And what the heck is going on in the game? I'm hearing Moletrap scream a lot...

if master mean copper then sure im copper league

Defensive, bro Ignore this diamond fool! (I love you ksan)

[Striek]

Nestea has fallen so far :/

He had enough units to save his first hatchery, he lets banes in, he let his second hatchery attempt not only fail but get killed. I'm...so disappointed. New Fruitdealer

Edit: Contrast that game to Stephanos sick micro yesterday against DRG. Crazy difference.

 

[Aaron]

Nesteas fall is almost complete.

He doesn't care about this game at all. Not even trying.

 

[Zzoram]

Nestea is free today.

Wooah hold on now.

 

[vicissitudes]

I wonder if Nestea's ZvZ is still good lol.

Guess not.

 

[Dooraven]

Well I didn't be expecting Nestea to be 0-3 in this group thats for sure.

Artosis am Cry.

 

[ghst]

looking forward to nestea vs. naniwa tilt rage hate match.

 

[jersoc]

maybe he doesn't care and he's throwing games but looking like he's sort of trying... right? right? that has to be it, guys.




/cry

 

[Finalow]

nestea man, wtf was that shit.

 

[Deadman]

The king is dead. Long live the king.

 

[Pandaman]

Wooah hold on now.

you're right, as far as we know nestea isn't a complete alcoholic yet.

 

[ksan]

if master mean copper then sure im copper league

:'D

Defensive, bro

Truth to be told, people should be a lot more conservative with calling shit all-ins then.
Because calling that shit an all-in compared to a zerg, or even a toss, all-in is ridiculous.
The chance of recovering when you fail with a zerg all-in must be like 1/10 of a terran all-in.

Spoiler

and sorry, I just had to troll

 

[V_Arnold]

Wooah hold on now.

Hyperbole-gaf, man.

Nestea needs to train harder, still. MVP had a similar time when he was kinda bad, but he bounced back, so can Nestea

Also: this game could be so much better without early banelings

 

[Zzoram]

As Naniwa said at MLG, Leenock is a better Zerg than Nestea.

 

[vicissitudes]

Tastosis curse continues lol.

Who will be the next to fall from grace?

 

[Zzoram]

Naniwa has to beat MMA and Nestea

AND

MMA has to lose to Polt

for Naniwa to advance

 

[Aaron]

Terran don't all-in. They do timings. Like 'time to send all my SCVs to crush the protoss.'

 

[Striek]

Hyperbole-gaf, man.

Not really. I don't think FD ever played a game that poorly. FDs fall I remember more due to his aggressive style becoming less and less effective (or more and more predictable). That was just sloppy mechanics from Nestea.

 

[Yoshichan]

I wonder how Tastosis would've praised Nestea that game.

Spoiler

and sorry, I just had to troll

You're still cool in my book, even though you know nothing about all-ins! Me and D3vil's probably done over 2000 all-ins in SC2.

 

[TheThunder]

looking forward to nestea vs. naniwa tilt rage hate match.

Is the starcraft 2 engine even programmed to make both players lose ?

 

[number386]

MMA also has to lose against polt for naniwa to advance.

Edit: anyone know why huk was snubbed? He won mlg orlando, while naniwa only got second in providence.

 

[ksan]

You're still cool in my book, even though you know nothing about all-ins! Me and D3vil's probably done over 2000 very aggressive timing attacks in SC2.

Fixed that for you!

 

[ghst]

i guess you've never base raced a terran.

 

[Yoshichan]

Fixed that for you!

So it's called that nowadays huh XD? Okay fair enough!

 

[Finalow]

I don't thinks so but it would be very nice.

 

[Dooraven]

i guess you've never base raced a terran.

Sadly neither of them are terran for this to happen
