He shouldn't have even made any banelings. During the time those lings were morphing into banelings, they could've done so much damage. Bad decision to make those banelings like that. He played too aggressively in those two games that he lost. The first time, they overdid the roach aggression, when he should've known that he didn't need to be with one hatch up on snute. His play seems to display overconfidence. That's costing him.

Not able to win the whole tourney but still an impressive run. Beating MMA and MKP isn't an easy task.

Stephano fighting!

Too bad Should've won 3-0, Snute is the only one who can stay in the game with lower upgrades and bases, dunno how

2-3 vs dimaga, 2-3 vs snute, always about one map, but still happy with his performance, he did well

He wasted so much resources, while Snute's macro was so efficient. Stephano would've been able to defend that roach push, if he hadn't wasted so much prior. Poor decision making and over-aggressiveness cost him the series. Snute played extremely well, I must say. His macro in all those games were great. Stephano really should practice his ZvZ. At this point, even Jaedong, who is relatively new to WoL, would probably have a 60% chance against him. Jae is already doing very well in Code A, btw. It's amazing how fast these Koreans can improve.

That first game he lost was just really bad decision making. That was the kind of mistake you would make in master or diamond league. You're already up one base, why are you pressing?

The second game he lost, omg... that made me so frustrated. He had a good advantage after taking 2 free queens. That third hatch was half-dead. He had 2 options, kill it, or kill Snute's army, which would've been a piece of cake if he hadn't wasted a ton of banelings just to kill 2-3 drones. What was he thinking building banelings right at the doorway of his opponents' base? You just don't do that... use those fricking zerglings to attack, not to just sit there waiting to become banelings only to be wasted. Jees... skill means nothing if you don't respect your opponent enough to not make really rooky mistakes like those.

It's simple. When you upgrade early, you're banking on that to yield a long-term advantage. That advantage gets thrown out the window when you're wasting units needlessly in the short-term. Upgrades means nothing if your army is 2/3 the size of your opponent's. Also, in the first game he lost, he wasn't able to take advantage of his 1-up hatch, because he knew he had to build army units instead of drones, since Snute's army size warped Steph's... which wouldn't have happened if Steph didn't throw away like 5 roaches for no good reason.

Yeah, i agree that this was a good tournament. The joy from destroying the two Korean terrans is enough to compensate for the disappointment from yet another ZvZ loss.

I guess that this is the last time we will see him play this year. GL in 2013, Stephano, i will keep cheering for you

I dunno if you are watching jeadong stream, but its awesome how he plays like stephano, but faster. So cleaner macro

Stephano and Jaedong will probably be able to improve a lot by sharing their experiences

he just called xlord a cunt on stream...was hilarious. but then tried to hide it by saying meant to say "cutie" which highly unlikely, you don't typo "nt" instead of "tie"
BW. There will always be a special place in my heart for the game I spent 10 years to be mediocre at.

It was obviously a mistake, he meant to type cutie, not cunt, they are so close together it's a very easy mistake to make~

I have done this thing. Admittedly only for words I type a lot so muscle-memory takes over, so thats not really any better

Nice run. His zvz is almost there. Once it's there, he'll almost never lose.
