ZvZ is really frustrating, and this leading to a match against MMA is even worse...

ZXZ is actually a mix between luck and skill. Stephano in that case should`ve never been in a ofensive mode.. If he just focused defending his main he`d have been just fine.. (im talking about last map - taldarim)

to be totally honest ZvZ and PvP are the two top arguments for me to play Terran (even though PvP has changed a lot...)

Its some sort of an worse case scenario right now for Stephano
MMA and probably MKP back to back is rediculous :D

Nestea won by a hair's breadth, he was the first to scout opponents mirror build which practically secured him the win. If 2 players open with all-in mirror quickpool builds the one who coughts the wind, wins. Because the smallest attempt at defense wins the game, spine crawler was ready already because nestea's overlord scouted stephano banelings while stephano was in dark. To bad 99% of people in LR thread doesnt even understand the intimacy of ZvZ.

No stephano could not defend his main, because he opened with all in, same way you dont stay with 6 lings in your main after 6pooling, it was bad luck and not enough experience to hide banelings from overlord (like nestea did).

Very close game. I felt Stephano had this he must be dissapointed. He outplayed Nestea when it got to midgame/lategame-

Its not over yet maybe he can suprice and beat MMA and MKP and meet nestea again that would be insane. But I do think MMA is to much for stephano.

But his run has been really well nonetheless once again proves he is a world class zerg
Stephano & Jaedong <-- The Pain Train. Polt and Innovation to EG plz

Well he put a very good fight against Nestea, the difference of skill between this two is really small in ZvZ.
Now, time for Stephano against a god of TvZ

Seems like in the best foreigner zerg's fanclub people don't either. Stop saying zvz is dumb. It's one of the most skill-based matchups, and no one else than nestea can ne blamed for the loss.

Mechanical skill and decision making difference is almost non existant, but mind game which is the dark side of zvz is surely stronger for nestea.

Terran mini-God you mean. Let's not forget about MKP here.

Hoping Stephano goes all the way though !

Zvz is way to volatile atm u can loose to all ins left and right. When it came to macro game you could clearly see that stephano has the better multitasking and equal macro.

4 banes with that and MMA is dead...

MMA and Stephano both played at 70% of their skill capacity max - so many mistakes on both sides
