Stephano relies on his unorthodox playstyle to really excel. This I feel is the crux of his lack of success in Korea. If one is not taken by surprise by his fast hive tech broodlord style, it becomes really easy to deal with, but if one is taken by surprise Stephano gains a massive advantage. His style is just a coinflip.


I disagree, this game was lost by Thorzains lack of scouting. When playing TvZ you must always try to scout for the Hive and Lair timming to either hit with a nice timming before that(Which Tzain almost did this game) or to be prepared.

This loss was more Tzains fault than anything

That's the point I was trying to make. Stephano played hoping his opponent wouldn't scout him, as if he was scouted it would put him pretty far behind.


No he didnt he played thorzain not the matchup. Thorzain is called the spoon for a reason. So there was like a 90% chance that thorzain would just macro up and go for late game with slow pushes.

Nothing about coinflip. Stephano rarely plays this way but its very smart vs Thorzain since it will force him to attack

Yes I agree with you. But stephano does like infestor ling into fast hive in this matchup doesn't he?


He does like fast Hive, but its normally not as fast as in this game.

Well, this game is over. Now or in 15min.
I hope the last game will be quick. It's not fun to see Stephano just outplay Thorzain all game long sadly.

Looks like the quest for a foreign Terran to win a somewhat notable tournament is going to have to continue =(

GG Steph playing so well.

well played by stephano. crushing the first push from the terran with his classic mass lings gave him the little edge and then he extended his advantage during the game.
keep it deep! @zulison

IPL3 and ESWC are actually the only major tournaments Stephano has won.

Stephano´s ZvT is ridiculous. I don´t get how can people balance whine about ZvT after seeing games like this where Stephano wins so convincingly.

Poor Tzain but it seems he needs to reevaluate his TvZ.

It's enough for win to be the foreigner who won the most money in this game period.

Not impressed by Thorzain. He's making no attempt to adjust his play to Stephano's unorthodox style.
