Contrary to popular belief Stephano is not from the States, any mindless spam asserting otherwise after this time (19:48 KST/ 5:48 AM EST/ 10:48 GMT) will meet a moderator response. We have enough confusing spam posting in LR threads these days. Lets try to keep the love for everyone's favourite French zerg reasonable.

And as always:
- No player bashing.
- No caster bashing.
- No balance whining.

Enjoy the games.

In my opinion having a weird accent is fine/irrelevant when you can speak the language fluently.

Hero got relatively early-killed by everyone today - a testament for the respect they have for his insanely good late game.


Honestly he killed himself early game. -_-

Testament for the fact that he doesn't have the stability to play the games to his best ability when it's not his day.

Now it's time to stop reading TL for 3 days because the bandwagon comments about him being overrated will make my brain explode. -_-


Honestly I think HerO has nerve issues in the GomTV studios, he obviously didn't think he could win MVP if he didnt have an economic advantage which explains the Nexus first. He seems to play much better on his stream as well as outside Korea, hope he can practice hard and shape up for the up and downs and not let the recent losses affect his game.

Is this a new meme or just silliness?
I've seen a bunch of people chanting this now, not a single person from USA in Blizzard Cup o.0


It's from the World Championship which was basically Korea vs the world, but someone started calling the world Team 'Team USA'. I don't remember if the first guy who did it was serious, but ever since then it's a meme.

if you dont know who to blame, blame Artosis :p

"Stephano will not continue to have success on the same level" <-- yeah right


IdrA´s predictions on other players are always so way off its disgusting and mostly arrogant.
He was the one calling nestea bad and fruitdealer good back in season 3, we know how that turned out.
He was the one calling tester strong, we know how that turned out.
He was calling marineking a cheesy noob. Sure.
He was the one calling zenio bad, then going ahead losing every single series against him.
Now its stephano that is making him look like an arrogant little kid.

IdrA is way too arrogant, i think he would play alot better if he would start to respect other players game more.


This. So true

Idra always says better players than him are bad, especially zergs. I guess he knows his fan will take that as a fact an then argue in his favor on forums, it's a strategy :D (at least I hope it's a strategy, Idra looks pretty smart when he's not trolling and crying imba or whatever, so I don't know why he would be that delusional about other player's skill)


Well, to be fair, Idra says that Stephano is really good. He just says tht once his style is figured out he won't dominate as much.


Which is totally wrong because Stephano plays much more styles than Idra himself.
He popularized the mass upgraded lings, but he had success with a lot of other builds.

Just got in. How were the Stephano games? I know he won, but did he crush face?

vs Hero:
Hero made an early push toward Stephano's third and lost every single unit without dealing any damage. Stephano macroed hard on roach only and crushed Hero's own third, then proceeded to finish him off with ease.
vs DRG:
DRG bane-ling all-ins against quick expo, Stephano holds the first units nicely, keeps microing well with a few clutch moments and holds until DRG is simply dead.

Pretty sure if he wins the next game he's in 100%. could be wrong but top 3 advance and being 3-0 would be shocked if he didn't advance.
When I think of something else, something will go here

Idra is an idiot. He has this mindset that there is only one way to play zerg. Wich is get 80 drones and defend every atack with the least amount of units. He doesn't like any zerg style that involves atacking before you are on 10 bases. Why is stephano better then Idra?

BECAUSE HE CAN PLAY ANY FUCKING STYLE. I remember demuslim saying that stehpano is impossible to play against because he can muta ling bling/ling infestors ulta/bl/ roach all ins. You don't know what to fucking prepare for and the best thing is that he can play all these styles on a very high level. Against Idra you can just 14 CC and play really greedy. Against stephano? You have no idea what to expect. Stephano is a much better player then Idra.


My personal opinion, but Stephano is also mechanically far superior to Idra. He is faster and his max army control is much better.


Stephano is not mechanically far superior to Idra at all. But i would agree tht his max army control is better.

If you want to see IdrA's predictions, there is a video Artosis did with him months and months ago where IdrA speculates about what current players in Code S will do in the future. His predictions are largely accurate. Further, I'm glad everybody is using hindsight to judge his predictions. Oh man, he didn't guess perfectly. Clearly he's an idiot, right?

He has said Stephano plays well, but people will figure out his style and his results will fall off. He's acknowledged he is a good player, but doesn't expect him to have anywhere near the success he has had recently.

Wrong. It's actually a lot safer than you would think, but you need adequate scouting with. Like, you can't come in your opponent's base, see no gas and assume "oh, he's going the standard gasless 1 rax FE" ...

I don't think it's possible to not go thru if you're 3-0.
