Ok, i'm a stephano fan, but don't even dare to cry imbalance over this. When he 3'0ed Puma was skill, but when he loses to a former GSL champion it's balance? Please, just go away.

Congrats to Stephano on the second place, despite the final he had an amazing run in this tournament, and he had the opportunity to push polt to his limits.
Sometimes things don't line up, it was really sad to see Stephano loosing your advantage like that. I hope that it won't shatter his confidence and that he will continue to own the sc2 scene

.

What is he next major tournament by the way?

Damn, such a shame, a tad better decision making and he would have won games 3 and 4.

Such a great player.

Maybe Stephano underestimated Polt a bit after the first game. All games were close, but some key mistakes turned the tide in Polt's favor. Anyway, great showing, as expected. 6k is not bad at all.

Please, please, please, don't get frustrated by this loss and continue to kick ass everywhere you go!

I think it's pretty simple, zerg per definition trade cost inefficiently but during this games the margin of inefficiency was too big against such a refined player as polt, stephano need to tight up his play in this match up and he will do well

Polt did the best decision in the end but the games were really close overall, and not a one sided serie at all. thanks for the show

Amazing games with Polt. Polt played supremely well and Stephano was able to get leads in basically every game, which leads me to believe that he has yet to his ceiling and that he will learn from this and come back even stronger. I thought Stephano played exceptionally well, in general. 4-1 does not reflect how close these games were. Awesome series and Stephano is still the man!
