Stephano's style is gimmicky for sure, but it is backed by solid fundamentals. He's not going to disappear even when his mass-ling style is figured out.

Stephano got countered hard...i dunno....his pure ling style always seemed to work, even when it makes no sense.

I guess lings aren't as free as people say they are. After that engagement at the 3rd I can't believe he didn't get anything to deal with marines.


I didn't notice the money, was he spending it all?

Sorry but this play from Stephano isnt top3... maybe nerves or something? could be.

Minigun 1-0 over Incontrol on the other stream btw.

i'm confused..why didn't he add infestors like he usually does? ive seen him try only ling once on ladder/stream but it didnt work midgame and had to infestor eventually..

Metagaming the terrans at the tournament? Who knows.

And thus we learn that pure ling can't in fact beat a KR Terran =p

I'm just going to go ahead and presume that Steph wanted to try make it work vs aLive, and that he'll actually use his normal festor/ultra transitions in knockout games >_>

WOW; seems like Alive has been watching some replays of Stephano's, Mass-marine with upgrades counter Stephano's mass-ling.

well its not hard to check the zerg's army and notice he was making mono lings , he did it in game one and he did it again in game 2, people were reaaly hyped about his mono ling playstile and not everyone is like , WHY WOULD U DO THAAAAT, QQ

I feel like getting some infestors would be really great with this style? I wonder why he went pure lings.


From what I've seen that is his natural progression, but apparently not today. Pretty disappointing, but he'll learn!

Stephano what did you do ???
I dont understand, i thought he played mass lings only on ladder for kidding but it's verry desapointing... Why no infestors ? Mutas? Ultras ? Banelings ?

I understand he does not like banelings, but in all ZvTs I saw him in he makes infestors, what was that game, some mindplay for championship bracket ? That was just bad.
