So far this has been an extremely one sided match up.


Lots of people have that guy who just always beats them because their styles stack up favourably.

For example:

MC always beats Ret, Idra and Stephano but he does really badly against Losira, Nestea and DRG.

Naniwa does well vs Nestea but does badly vs Lucky and Leenock.

MVP always beats all Terran's except MMA

MMA beats MVP but loses to Polt.

It's just a quirk of the game.
Mvp, Nestea, Leenock, MC, Oz, Jjakji!

Why do players not check every base on the map? If Stephano hasn't taken the normal third there, what does Grubby lose by looking everywhere else?

He played it well, nice mindgame but it's not 'perfect' play. Gimmicky hidden third, wow Stephano must be a genius.

Such a stupid, stupid race.

turning off, this is dumb. Protoss simply relies on stupid allins, that totally retarded

Stephano is really making this look imba. Mutas are quite strong, and zerg late game is near unbeatable for all races.

What does he do differently? The games I saw from him were similar endgames, but the Zerg I saw him play let him get an archon toilet on his entire army.


He does nothing different. Stephano practised alot in Korea vs the mothership and he is really really good at splitting his broodlords.

It's not all that gimmicky. With Mutas it doesn't matter if it's scouted.

Speedlings.

Every zerg that doesn't get gas early on huge maps like TDA is just really silly. Deny scouting and you will have a huge advantage over a Protoss player that have no clue what tech you have, how many bases you have or whether the roach/ling allin is coming or not. I'm talking about the early stage of the game btw, long before observers or halu can be done.

Edit: Actually even regular lings would've destroyed any probe that tried to go that huge ass distance looking for that base. Zerg early game map control must be abused.

Well the differences are a lot more subtle to the eye but they do matter

Brown understands the timings pretty well and he always attacks at right timings to ensure that zerg does not have too many bases up on him.

Basically, he dosen't let the zerg get up to 22 broodlords.

He harasses more with warp prism and constantly repositions his army to pick off units. Basically, these koreans know how to play a war of attrition, while what i saw from grubby was a complete stand-off game until zerg got out of control.
Thats what i feel about brown. Of course, he may get owned in code S but i'm sure if he plays to his standard he won't lose.
