Yeah, Stephano is staying pretty quiet. He doesn't seem comfortable.

Anyone know how good his english is? Might explain a lot. (If so: why the hell get him on there?)

In addition he already said, that he is quite jetlagged.

For some reason when i hear Stephano's voice, I imagine that he'd be a large black man

It's a Thursday night, so don't get too down! The NYC crowd, myself included, is headed out there for the final rounds of Saturday and Sunday so the main event should be RIDICULOUS!

From the few times he has spoken, I'd say his English is at least White-Ra level; so pretty good.

He's probably just not used to being in front of the fans and having to answer questions this way.

I absolutely love this Panel format they got going on. Except for the lack of people I actually love the idea and it makes sense having stephano up there because he's doing so well and people are interested but he was kinda dry in his answers.

Its very good. Especially since I doubt he's spent much time in and English speaking country, given his age.

I guess that's because he doesn't feel a 100% comfortable giving long answers in something other than his natural language (just guessing though, but it would make sense)

That player panel was one of the coolest things a tournament could ever do. <3 IPL
i was driving down the road this november eve and spotted a hitchhiker walking down the street. i pulled over and saw that it was only a tree. i uprooted it and put it in my trunk. do trees like marshmallow peeps? cause that's all i have and will have.

I dunno why, but this made me lol

Will these panel sessions be available to view if we buy the pass? I'd love to watch these, but I don't know when they are on. I'll buy a pass if I get those on VODs!

remax on 40 roaches vs like 12 3 atk immortals?


What should he have remaxed on. Lings vs storms.

Speaking of which... what do people think ret did wrong? I suppose that he could have made infestors but they are pretty weak against HT, which MC had alot of. Banelings wouldn't have worked cus of storm and blink. And ultras get stomped by that many immortals with 3 attack.

So what should ret have done in that situation? Perhaps tried to pull the army apart with nydus and drops.
I cannot think of a way that zerg could have dealt with that army straight up. Ret's mistake was trying to engage MC at all.

Any differing opinions?


Ret should have never made hydra's after he killed the initial phoenix. They are so useless. Also he shouldnt have attacked before like 12 broodlords instead of 5 with barely any ground support.
I really think it wasn't MC being awesome that game but instead Ret being stupid. Ret 2-0'd MC back in the NASL when MC wasn't "slumping". He has what it takes.

Who cares about NASL online games...? There's tons of lag, the only other lan they played MC 2-0ed him.


Who cares about the lag? Who says the lag worked in Ret's favor? I don't understand people use that as an excuse for a loss. It could only mean that MC has better nerves on stage, still doesn't mean Ret doesn't have what it takes.
Common sense says so, as MC had to play from KR to NA which is notoriously laggy.



Actually, EU to KR is notoriously laggy. KR to NA is alright, EU to NA is alright. Also, players have to stay in sync. If one player lags, doesn't the other person experience the exact same delay?

No and even if it did it still devalues the result if its played with a handicap. If you played a tennis match blind would it make the match any more meaningful if your opponent played blind too?

Now you're just talking nonsense to try to validate your point. You can compare that to playing SC blind and then I would agree with you.

this game is a fucking jokie

yeah, to be fair this was a thursday event, when lots of people are still at work. MLGs dont start till friday afternoonish, so more people are off work and dont have to worry about work the next day. Im sure the crowd will be much better sat and sun

"losing units early on is pretty crucical in tvt" - no its actually the most forgiving match up. losing a few hellins or marines barely matters actually.

oh my god i just found Ballys stream LOLLLLLLLLL

me too. I wish they added the info that all options are only functional in IE, not in chrome...

just watched that "player conference" for moment, i think players are just way too tired to give any proper answer...stephano and huk looked like "wtf am i doing here...where am i"

imo the players are way too exhausted and should be already somewhere else then answering some ... weird questions.

The point is if the game is played under a handicap the result is meaningless.
