Brains of catz lol? CatZ isn't even in the same league as Stephano, Catz is a personality and a decent zerg, Stephano is among the worlds best and along side Nerchio the best two zergs in Europe.

I don't think he was suggesting that Catz is comparable overall, but Catz is often commended on being a highly intelligent and unpredictable player. His strategies are often quite solid and well put together but he generally fails to execute them to their full potential.

Stephano has pretty good execution and is already fairly good in terms of strategy, having an extra Zerg brain that is known for creative play certainly won't be detrimental.

Congratz to both coL and Stephano. I really like Stephano's ZvT, particuarly his use of quickly upgraded speedlings to hold any early pushes, then going into a ling/infestor mid game. I still think he could be a little more careful with his infestors though, but overall I agree that currently he's one of, if not the best foreign zerg.

Catz has always had a good eye for talent, probably one of the reasons why ROOT was the best team in North America before disbanding. He was also responsible for Complexity picking up TriMaster.

Honestly though, in regards to Stephano, you'd have to be near-blind to not see he's really talented.

So manner from Complexity to announced it before Millenium. ><
I don't really understand this decision from Stephano, Millenium isn't a top tier team but so isn't complexity. It won't makes me like their line-up more. Good luck to him anyway.

We absolutely meant no disrespect to Millenium and respect them very much. We simply did not want it to leak as it was apparent many people were aware of the situation. Once it was legally finalized we announced it.

This is more or less how teams are getting top tier now. Complexity seems to have a more balanced approach to it though, which is even more apparent with how long they had kept their original roster even after they got a lot of stronger players, waiting to see if eventually they will produce results and providing them with the means to train with the best.

I mean honestly, would have you have said EG was a top tier team when Puma joined?

There really aren't that many teams I can think of that would have been a better choice here, teams get better by picking up good players and training their existing players. Complexity is doing both.

As much as I like Millenium they cant provide Stephano with what he need. MLG spot and a trip to korea in a pro house is what Stephano needs now, he cant improve anymore in europe atm

o rly ?

Stephano is one of the best Z in the world dude.

o rly?

Let him prove it first before hyping over a couple online tourney please? Where was Stephano in all of the big LAN event in EU??? Has him and Nerchio ever step over the big name like Ret/Morrow/Sheth and Dimaga yet?? If not, then please stop.


Theres probably at least 15 better zergs than him in the world anyways, but okay.
List them.

off the top of my head there are 10 foreign zergs that he has yet to prove he can compete with in a major tourney, well see how he does at mlg vs players like
