If Polt loses to Stephano, all hope lost for me to beat good Zergs T_T-_-;


Why, TvZ is still terran favored in korea.


Because Polt is amazingly good while I'm not. So if he fails to beat Stephano (a very good Zerg) how can I beat other good Zergs in comparison... when I'm not even half as good as Polt T_T

This is the first time Polt has been beaten by Stephano I think, and Stephano probably is around top5-10 zerg in the world...

Polt is good, but he has always had a hard time in Code-S (He is not one of the absolute strongest)...


Stephano beat him a while ago, in Ezio cup, and Stephano is easily top 3 zerg atm.

He's not easily top 3 zerg...>_>

That's a huge statement.


Is it? Which are the 3 best zerg´s then? I mean sure you have DRG and then I guess the second would be Leenock (?) and then?

Nestea... kinda the obvious answer there. Regardless until he actually competes with GSL competition (more than just 1 or 2 players at random tournaments) nobody can make that type of statement. For all we know he is barely Code A material in Korea.... I mean look at what happened in the GSTL last night. Three of the best players in the game got beaten by a Code A player...

wow, USA anthem after stephano's win is just the most BM i have ever seen in 1,5 years of sc2. you just don't play the anthem of another country as neutral tournament organizers.

gladly stephano reacted very calmly


Guys... we confirmed with Stephano if this would be OK to do. Relax.. not gonna troll him. (although he has been trolling us all weekend )


thank you, hopefully this will put whiners to rest

How does that help the fact that the joke is really old and way overused? I don't care if people think it's hilarious to call Stephano American (I'd say it's pretty funny since the US has such a ridiculous low number of good players that they actually need to steal players from other countries to feel good), I'm just annoyed that stuff like this will make the USA meme even more popular and stream chats will once again because unreadable for all the USA spam.


Life must be so hard, I don't know how you will deal with this travesty. Maybe you will just have to roll your eyes, ignore it, and move on.

I can only imagine all the intelligent things that would be said in stream chats if only people stopped chanting USA. All of our minds would be enlightened by the profound things said within those chats.

Zergs you run into aren't exactly coming close to Stephanos level either.


How do you know? I'd say the last time I met Stephano on ladder... was less than 2 month ago, but thanks for informing me on how I met or who I play against, didn't know.


Ok, MMR inflation matched you against Stephano, still doesn't mean you are anywhere near the level where you should worry about it. Until you regularly start meeting people his skill in the grand final off important tournaments, the fault for losing is all yours.


Naruto is still a semi-pro, try to take a more respectful tone please.


How am i being disrespectful exactly? I have not said anything insulting, i've just stated facts. There is simply no logic in arguing that Stephano winning ONE bo3 vs Polt means HE has no hope defeating high level zerg players.

It's not so much what you said, as the tone you said it in, the argument is ridiculous anyway, Naruto you should really ignore people like this if they can't keep it civil.

I would not be surprised about the following interview with Stephano after his retirement:

Q: In retrospect, what do you think of this USA theme, created in 2011?
A: I think it was completely silly and disrespectful, but I embraced it to not put off m american viewers mainly for my stream

PR is everything, Stephano does is quite well.

Nestea, Curious, Lucky, Coca, July and Zenio are consistantly showing Code S level play so I guess you could make a case for them.

The USA joke is funny , why?
Because you all know there's a some kind of latent rivalry bewteen France and USA and the fact that a french is ok being called American and the American agreed to welcome a french is amusing and pacifying.

Theres a rivalry?


Yes. "You all know" so we all know. They want to rename french fries freedom fries. This is unacceptable.

He was joking.
Naruto is only one of the few Terran pros that dont come here to whine over and over every time a terran player loses.

You can argue that Nestea is in a bit of a slump, but I'd say July is playing better than Stephano at the moment.


JULY!?

Hey.. normally I do not do this.. but currently there are a lot of you or others watching the event that are on the CSN site. We would love it if you would take the time to register for the site.. (takes about 3 minutes).. or at least follow us on twitter.. so that we can continue to get the word out about the SC2, QuakeLive, HoN and LoL events that we are running.

We appreciate your support and hope that all of you are enjoying the event. We can not please everyone..but we hope we have been able to please you all at different times. Continue to support TeSPA, CSL and the rest of those that helped make this event a reality.

Still Naked!
