What a silly game that was


MKP seems to find himself in those kinds of situations a lot more than other pros.

I don't know why lol.

I didn't find that game silly. Genius failed a 4gate and lost his pylon, MKP responded normally by just killing him.

That's a huge boost...Stephano is not better than Nestea. You have no reason to believe that.


No reason? Stephano has been beasting it up hardcore lately, and Nestea not so much... Problem is Stephano doesn't compete with koreans often so it s hard to know precisely at what level he is compared to them. I look forward to the Iron Squid to see that. If he wins Iron Squid, it will be one more proof that he is one of the best (if not the best) zerg players in the world


Doing well as a foreigner doesn't put you on the same level as a 3 time GSL Champion.

You still have no reason to believe he's better than Nestea.

Nestea was good, and was without any doubt the best Z in the world, but it's a very long time ago. Since this he just lose to random 2nd-class Korean player. That's all. And Stephano really good atm.

Except all we see of Stephano is him beating foreigners that also get rolled by Koreans...>_>

There's no positive evidence for Stephano being any better than any Korean zerg.

The ironsquid tournament will settle this But Stephano going 2-2 in his Blizzcup group was a pretty good performance.

(and getting to top20 in the Kor ladder when you compare it to Idra's for instance, also gives a small idea)

Nestea's Recent GSL losses- Polt, Leenock, MMA (In Blizzard Cup)
MMA, HuK (GSL Nov.)
MVP (GSL Oct.)
MMA, MVP (GSL August)
And he lost 0 games in GSL July

Yeah, Nestea has been losing to random 2nd-class Koreans like MMA and MVP

It really depends how much Stephano has developed his play now. Code S this season is NOTHING like the code S in the previous seasons. Everyone in code S now is playing at MVP Nestea level of last year and better. Stephano's style doesnt stand a chance against modern korean code S play
