Seriously. Stephano has won against the best players in the world live, and there's not a huge difference between his games live and his games online. His overlord placement is great and he sees his minimap better than almost anyone else. Is it cheating? I doubt it, since he'd have to be checking the stream every couple seconds to get the reaction time he has. In BW, that kind of map vision was normal for progamers, in Sc2, everyone has lost it, apparently.

TT1? lol.
To be fair, TT1 has the longest win streak in any FXOpen KOTH with 7 wins, including beating CrunCher and SeleCT. I wouldn't see him beating Stephano either, but he's not the worst player in this KOTH by any stretch.

Ya, I remember him pausing in "offline" events pretty often... Maybe it's just his way of "sleeping" his opponent ^^

Yes, acusing someone of cheating is really harsh and you want people to give facts, but I'm not capable of such things, but maybe there's someone in here (mods or so) who is capable of quickly checking if he was watching the stream or not.

I'm just saying that he was suspected earlier and DIMAGA said it himself, so... I'm just saying. (Yes I know DIMAGA cheated aswell, before someone brings this up, but that was a long time ago).

Here's the interview, jump to 05:55 for the part about Stephano


Dimaga only said, that stephano plays so good that he thought he would maphack, but the games at the LAN proved he is at the same level offline.

I don't see why pausing is indicative of stream cheating. Using a second screen for the stream would be much more effective and unsuspicious. He doesn't have to change the stream for every game like streamcheaters on the ladder.

It's not like Stephano isn't able to beat all this players.

Lol at people thinking Stephano cheat...
He is simply far better than almost every player in the EU scene, and when he is against very good players (such as LucifroN) you can see that he can lose online too.
Btw he has not done "worse" offline because it's offline that he can really display his skills, beating Huk or SEn on lan for example, there aren't enough good players in online cups.

so given that his level of play online is consistent with his level of play offline, the only thing that supposedly indicates that he is stream cheating is that he pauses everygame?

that seems pretty thin and/or stupid


really enjoying the games regardless

Ok, SjoW is going to go play in IPL and was busy all today (T_T), so GoOdy will take his spot.

Next game will be...

I seriously doubt Stephano is streamcheating, also if you've ever watched his stream you notice that he pauses every game there as well.

Goody not doing early aggression is so not true. Shows how little they know about Goody, cause he does so many aggressive things from one base, like reaper bunker rushes vs Zerg, 1-1-1 elevator, marine+tank+medivac push vs toss etc and his early game unit control is actually outstanding.
