/rant It is fun as long as people understands that it is a joke. It becomes less fun and entertaining when people start to believe what ever they are chanting along with. I kid you not, when I was a exchange student in the US, there were people who really thought ABBA was a American music group because they sang without a foreign accent. Same deal with the companies H&M and IKEA, apparently they were successful American business but with Swedish CEOs. *shrug* /endrant

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.

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.
Or I spend 2 seconds writing a post on TL about how annoying it is. If even one person realizes how annoying spamming a boring meme is and stops doing it, it was definitely worth it.

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.
I would be surprised if he said anything close to that, since Stephano has a sense of humor

What else are you going to say to an audience full of Americans..

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?
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!?
JULY?!?!
I am not in the "Stephano top3 zergs in the world" fanclub, but that statement is out of this world.
At least July dances better than Stephano.
Maybe it was just that magic wig to give him such sick moves...
EPT
Relax.. not gonna troll him. (although he has been trolling us all weekend ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/CWj1H.gif)
Incredible games anyway
