alive adapted very well to the style he saw in game 1. fast 3rd, mass marine, fast double upgrades and slower tanks absolutely destroys mass marines.

You don't win anything for winning the group.


You do win money for winning the group. Or getting second place.

So obviously, people are going to be trying -.-'

Again, let me reiterate before people's heads blow up.

If you are going to hype the guy up(he is def a good player I've followed him for a long time) don't be surprised when he slips up and their is backlash.

People in this thread were posting about how godly he was after the HuK game, and are then surprised when there is the complete kick back after he gets stomped. That is how the internet works. Don't come in talking him up to be amazing and then be surprised when people go completely the other way and call him overrated that is how it works.

The guy is good. No doubt. But let's catch our breath. It is just day one, and he probably falls somewhere between the 2 extremes of greatest player ever and overrated.

Stephano got countered hard here by Alive. I wonder if he studied Stephs style. Pure upgrade marines destroy his ling only style. Imagine if he had infestors when the marines were stuck at the choke. It works on European ladder because everyone makes too many siege tanks and he uses their splash against them. I feel like he tried to metagame but got metagamed himself. Makes sense, uh?

i have nothing against gorden and the story around him.
but i would prefer much more a interview with a player.

i hope someone or something benefits from that
than me as a sc2 fan dont give a shit.

maybe i would have a different opinion if that would be a soccer player dont know

Alive played this perfectly against mass lings, kudos to him.
Stephano will have to think of something better to beat korean terrans.

Go watch sc2 tournament,
see basketball player interview


If only it could be like MLG, where you have to wait through 30 minutes of dead air in between each match!

It's also not like there is a second stream he could switch over too.

Alive's style was a direct counter to mass ling. I don't think stephano will go mass ling if they meet later in the tournament.

Well the internet is usually retarded but yeah I agree. I find it funny how many fanboys think they have to do DC for their favourite player lol
