If I had my way, Stephano would get brutally destroyed by Grubby and still "win" the group in second place.

I want them both in the next round so badly!

Hey! while in the stephano fan club, always remember that he is god! ill assume that english isn't your first language, and you meant to say that you hope that stephano crushes through his group in first place. if grubby makes it through in second, thats ok, as long as stephano is first.

i'm afraid that stephano can't go through his WCS group, i don't see him beat grubby if he plays as poorly as against BBK

hope that krass could defeat grubby

Plain awful play by Stephano. I'm a big fan but that is so undeserving of ro16. Unless he pulls out something good in 2nd place match, he's a goner.

agreed this play was one of the worst i have seen. IDK what happened to stephano with BabyKnight he was owning him in WOL.
Hope he gets further.

It didn't even look like he was trying against BabyKnight. No Macro hatch, as Tod mentioned in the 2nd game...late 3rd base, late Hydras....He failed to use the major advantage of Zerg and didn't tech switch in game 1. He even had some melee upgrades going but never dropped the Ultra Cavern....just really uninspired play. I think he's grown complacent with that EG salary!

That said, I hope he brings that A game for Grubby ...

He just needs practise but really I don't like this swarmhost play at all. It don't feel very Stephano´ish. Stephano is an aggressive zerg this swarmhost play has got to go!

Turns out at the moment he's playing on a laptop with some framerate issues, not on his normal computer, which is what he blames on his poor play, and he's new to the strategy (i'm just repeating what he's saying in the interview :D )

Even tho it's a bit funny saying BabyKnight played like shit, I still think it's not all to nice. BabyKnight is a really cool guy and shouldnt deserv all your hate, Stephano...

he said he had only 3 pratice games with swarm host strategy, i think he don't lie about that ^^

but his said that he prefere to replace static defenses by corruptors, then he could be more mobile, but in fact he was less mobile than RorO. His swarm hosts war too far away from grubby's bases so he couldn't denie them...

when i saw this strategie used by rorO, i though that it was kind of imba, but now i understand that it's not at all.
If the protoss plays it well, the zerg has to manage really well the harass of the toss and to keep alive his units

I believe that because it was bloddy horrible to watch. I really don't like this strategy at all

Good job advancing.

I would encourage him to watch Hydra or Soulkey to see how to use swarmhosts better than he currently is. He had a good size lead in the first game but was just letting his swarmhosts sit around. He should have been burrowing and unburrowing them (as necessary) to attack BK's fifth. His overall unit composition did not seem good either. He needed infestors. Infestor-swarmhost-viper seems almost impossible to kill straight up.

Also, he's used swarmhosts against Protoss mroe than 3 times(not sure what he was referring to if Stephano said that) but he usually just uses a rush strategy and he doesn't micro them at all, so maybe he meant use them in non-all in situations. He needs to up that part of his game because being good with swarmhosts now seems important against Protoss.
To be is to be the value of a bound variable.

Hmmm. I think it will be difficult against Dimaga. But he can beat Thorzain and Feast without problem if he's in a good shape.
