Not sure what to think of that double pylon block. That's a lot of minerals in the early game.
i was driving down the road this november eve and spotted a hitchhiker walking down the street. i pulled over and saw that it was only a tree. i uprooted it and put it in my trunk. do trees like marshmallow peeps? cause that's all i have and will have.

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

Lucky? IPL 3
July? lol
Zenio? when was the last time he won a major tourney?
Nestea? nah, he certainly was, but now hell no.
Coca?...
Yeah, every Korean is better than stephano...

Judging from half the comments in here, it was because they thought the tournament was over, lol.

well, playing an anthem and stuff kinda sold it as the grand final

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.


I didn't say otherwise. "MMR" inflation... OK ! Because you absolutely know where I am on ladder or what not. Seriously, some people need to get some information on their hands. I never claimed being as good as Stephano nor that I meet Zergs of that calibre every day.
It was merely a statement of how I think of Polt--;

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.


Am i not keeping it civil? Am i cursing, raging and insulting? No, please refrain from calling me uncivilized.

I didn't say otherwise. "MMR" inflation... OK ! Because you absolutely know where I am on ladder or what not. Seriously, some people need to get some information on their hands. I never claimed being as good as Stephano nor that I meet Zergs of that calibre every day.

Well, take heart in the fact that he won pretty decisively in the last two series they played. About that MMR inflation, it is well known that the top of GM didn't get there by playing eachother all the time, Blizzard capped MMR long ago to prevent the best players from getting too long queues, as a result now almost half the games they play are against high masters/low gm players who wouldn't face them without an MMR cap.
I'm probably being ironic

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..

To be fair, July and Zenio aren't really that consistent. The main problem with trying to get a fair "Top Zergs" ranking is that there isn't enough mixture of the foreigner (european) scene with the Korean scene. There's a reason why TL separates International and Korean rankings.

Exactly. Stephano is good, but until he goes to Korea and competes there is no proof that he could even get out of Code A.

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.


Yeah, July.
take a good look at his TLPD for the last 3 months. He is 15-5, beating his up and down group 4-1 and all killing IM 6-0 last week.
