EPTNot really.
Who in their right mind thought Steph stood a chance, anyway?
Hero going 0-4 was well below my prediction, but it does confirm my belief to not trust the hype.

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. | ||

He most certainly stood a chance. | ||

MVP didnt even to try ahrd to hold that off pretty sure knowing about it 5 seconds later wouldnt ahve made much difference I can't believe you take so much time just to troll and derp people in this thread... so much effort wasted! | ||

stephano beat HerO whom lost to everyone else as well stephano defended really well against DRG 1base bane/lings stephano roach/ling timing against MC was held off with very impressive Forcefields stephano then proceeded to be crushed by MVP, who too crushed MC beforehand so seeing the complaints, im just gonna say the format sucks, and they should just make it TOP 2 qualifies. It will reduce the fan's rants. | ||

Stephano represented himself well imo, 2-2 in that group is really nothing to be ashamed of. He should have won the game vs mc though, he should have stuck with the macro game on dual sight. | ||

Matter infact Stephano just proved himself why he is one of the best players in the world. Note I sayd one fo the best not the best. Stephano deserved to go true. DRG should feel very lucky that Hero had nothign to play for vs him and MC had a shitty PvZ map | ||

Make whatever excuses you want but I highly doubt Hero didn't try, and I know MC tried his hardest to beat DRG you could just tell by his play and everything lol. | ||

Love is a big word Blade". but yea "defender of Stephano". I try to be as objective as possible and sometimes ofcourse my emotions come true when dealing with trolls. You know how it is blade:D Btw ofcourse I think hero tryed but he had 0 confidence the match vs DRG I thought someone had stolen Hero´s account. | ||

I felt bad because I have had those games and they are so frustrating when that happens xD. Yeps it was a complet meltdown and I feel really sorry for Hero becuase his skill level is much much higher then what he showed. And of all the matches yesteday I was so sure that Hero would not lose to any of the zergs his PvZ alllways looks amasing. | ||

I don't know about you or Hero, but personally, I'd feel more determined to win if I went 0-3. Losing 0-4 is quite embarrassing and Hero's post-game message seemed to indicate that's how he felt after his poor performance. Anyway, let's stop making justifications outside the game for a player's loss or win. Player conditions do matter, but that's also what being a champion is about: the ability to overcome challenges in the game and outside of. | ||

I just think there is a very thin line from success to failure and its not allways black and white. | ||

And besides, he's playing against the best players, so if anything it would show he isn't the best. Which is not necessarily anywhere close to being bad =O | ||
