Don't even try to argue on this because it's just basic mathematics. So... Rock beats scissors, paper beats rock, therefore... Paper beats scissors? You're a genius. | ||

Didn't Stephano beat MMA to qualify, or was that MKP? | ||

Lucky is a stylistic zerg whose style directly counters the Slayers terrans' fast hellion expands. He is also terrible at ZvZ. And Inori had Stephano dead to rights in game 2 of their series, but completely fell apart. None of this means that Stephano played badly. In fact he played so well that his opponent's weaknesses became glaringly apparent. However he had a relatively weak path to the finals, same as Nestea did in his 3rd championship. | ||

"IdrA best foreigner" Stephano wins IPL3, 10x harder to do, demolishing the player who knocked out IdrA: "Stephano sux, he just got lucky" "IdrA's play is clearly better" and furthermore: "Stephano is the best player in the world" why cant ppl just enjoy what just happened. | ||

He defeated a lot of great players to qualify for IPL, then defeated a lot more great players to win the tournament. That's all there is to it. Ok I'll rephrase, hes a god dam amazing player and deserves the win 100%. I guess what Im saying is that I would have liked to see him play the better players in this tournament for example, MMA, Ryung Puma etc. | ||

How many people were actually saying this? I see many more people who whine about how easy Stephano's path was! Imagine the hype around Idra if he would have won this IPL! Then shut up. Stephano deserves some hype and he deserves his fanboys because this was an outstanding achievement, especially because he doesn't train in korea. | ||

But please name a foreigner who is better than him, I would like to know who it is. I know your not dissing him, but your comment is downplaying him a bit much tbh. He is a great player with fantastic potential. Also I saw him play some bad games this tournament, he has among he best zvt AND zvp in the foreigner scene and great zvz comparable to dimaga if not better. I can count the amount of zergs in the world that are as good in any matchup as he is in all three on my hands. Speaking of nestea and losira (well I wasn't but w/e) stephano might have better zvt then them (but that is not proven by anything except that zvt is the IM zergs' worst MU). His performance in this tournament was extraordinary but that doesn't make him the best foreigner. He's extremely good, but there are many other good ones too like Dimaga, Mana, ThorZaIN who've all beaten him on LAN recently and done well vs Koreans. | ||

I don't know what you're trying to say. | ||
