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.

WOW, I got up, checked the results and was surprised as hell, in a good way. Gratz for Stephano, incredible tournament. GG

Unfortunately I couldn't stay up for the final due to the poor scheduling, but I'm so glad to see Stephano win.

Now, next time I want a Protoss to be able to win....

Are there seriously guys doubting Stephano is one of the best players at the moment? I really can't believe it. He's Code - S material easily.


Yeah, the people discrediting him for not having any LAN results prior to this are now saying
"his path to the championship wasn't hard" and "He hasn't consistently won Code S like NesTea" so he's not Code S standard.

People should actually look at the gameplay for once, that ZvZ was a work of art, absolutely clinical, perfect play. The ZvT's were superb, handling drops way better than many Code S zergs etc etc, it just looked like Code S standard play to me, for sure.

Can't believe people are trying to explain that Stephano in fact isn't that good and coming up with bullshit reasons like he lost to aLive. Okey then why aLive didn't make it to the finals ?

CONGRATZ Stephano, you are huge and keep on the good work. Most importantly FOREIGNERS FOR THE WIN!

just woke up and watched the vod of the final, witnessing the greatest foreigner victory in a convincing fashion

decided to happily read through the last pages of the lr thread and finding myself shocked about what people write in here to downplay it and other obnoxious stuff, just disappointing -.-

Time for Capslock-Rage!

WHY COULDNT I SEE IT IPL?!?!? WHY BRING 4 HOURS OF LOL IN BETWEEN SO I WASNT ABLE TO STAY AWAKE FOR MY STEPHANO!!!! QQQQQQ

Apart from that bitter fact it was a well run tournament!


So, take a 4 hour nap in between if you don't care about LoL?


Wanted to stay awake, then fell asleep around 4am during the last LoL match


They actually played the LoL and semifinals at the same time ... I found out halfway during the second game between Stephano and thestc. You could have seen the semis man!!

mvp didnt have the hardest possible path when he won some gsl. he didnt have to win against all the best players.

does this mean he isnt worthy? or the best player?

every tournament has a huge element of luck - do you get good match ups concerning players? do you get good match ups concerning race? do you play at your best when you absolutely need to, and have dips when its ok?
and of course, not too many build order losses and such.

even nestea and mvp needs luck to win. in a game like starcraft you cant just depend on skill, unless youre 10 times better than your opponent.. and even then i guess you could lose now and then


People really need to start using better examples. MVP had to beat Polt, MC, July, Nestea, Huk and Top on his way to win his last GSL.

He said some gsl, not the last one, I'm sure there's a gsl somewhere where he had a relatively easy time

Everyone acting surprised and stuff, someone has to win and stephano was up there unless you were blind going in to this event. Obviously not seen as the most likely player to win it all, but not far from it either imo.

Winning 1 IPL is more prize money than winning every single MLG in a year?

Well I guess one could argue that his WC championship was easy.
