If you don't know how to post in a live report thread by now, be advised: don't whine about game balance and don't bash players/casters/interviewers/staff/other posters. We are monitoring this thread closely.

Stop with the USA USA chant shit. Further offenses beyond page 493 will be met with bans. You've been warned.

Gotta give credit to Stephano. He had a great showing in that match up. Let's not kid ourselves though. TheSTC played poorly that series. The better player won though.

Hmm, Stephano not resting at all? Lucky had his sweet time with the LoL games...

Well if you look at it from the other side of things Stephano is warmed up and in game mode, Lucky has been sitting around doing nothing?

Either way I don't think it actually makes that much of a difference at this point in time. Stephano won't be 'tired' and Lucky will be ready to go.

Ya i dont want to try to discredit stephanos first lan but thestc is no IMmvp/OGSnada/EG.lZgAmEr/coL.Drewbie.


Why did you spell Lz like a retard and he also doesn't even play Terran to begin with.

Hate to rain on your parade, but if they are so good you really think they would either be winning or showing up to win this tourney considering the cash prize?

Ummm MVP would have fucking rolled this tournament

dropping mules is nothing against 50 banelings running past the terran army x3. i liked the first engagement with banelings. They somehow lined up behind the lings and splitted so much that tank shots were useless, and the lings could kill the marines for free and the tanks were muta food.

I really enjoy stephanos games they have this bwish feeling. Where you are pretty sure the whole map will be taken before someone wins.


As you said his micro is awesome. He does such a good job target firing/splitting his lings/banes instead of attack-moving everything from one or two directions.

dimaga, ret on eu scene wins some, nerchio takes all online stuff
a lot of zergs winning tourneys all around
it's sad zealot time u know


Doesn't stop the zergs from whining all day


Thats really only destiny and idra though. Most eu and kr have been over that for quite a while


hahah I still remember Destiny whinning and saying that Blizzard shpould just remove Zerg from competitive play. TvZ is really balanced, best player usually wins(there is luck ofc). Between patches and new strategies TvZ has become such an awesome MU.

Now only the P MUs needs some tweaking/strategizing.

That's a good word for it

holy sh1t
this game is officially best drop reacting in zvt i've ever seen in sc2


To be fair, he was far enough ahead that there was absolutely no reason for him not to have a handful of lings and banelings in each base, and he knew that STC would pretty much have to attempt to drop him to try to get back into the game.

His drop reaction was much worse in the previous game, when STC wasn't playing from an enormous deficit.


You sir are smart. Everyone else, not so much.


not like he didnt denie any drop in map 1 and 2 as well

Those 85 bannelings at the end were the icing on the cake, seriously. He didn't have to do that to win, it was purely for fun. I mean, the guy is in semi final and he's still having fun haha.

That roach all-in is so ridiculously strong that even if you make just 2 hellions and switch to tanks in a close pos map you die anyway.

Well I guess Terran can't just blind tech behind an expansion.

It's okay to make a hatch though, right? :D

Zerg can't blind tech behind an expansion either. Or at all.

Right now this roach "all-in" is so effective because Terran is playing so greedy.

in idras macro game he tore apart STC more easily than stephano beat STC his his macro games. then idra lost twice to early cheese cant really compare it



idra won legit ZvP games at IEM last week while stephano just massed roaches against a protoss that has clearly bad PvZ


whats wrong with you?
idra in no way looks better than stephano
equal maybe
