EPTI know people hate on Stephano fans, but I really think he's overtaken Nestea and is second only to DRG.

Having 5-10 ghosts in with your army would be great, you already have the tech labs to build marauders, building a ghost academy + mobius reactor is pretty cheap, just do it late game. When stephano had 15 infestors it was near the end of the game, at that point polt cant afford to make the transition into ghosts any more. | ||

Continue to play well and eek out advantages. Stephano going BL/Infestor isn't new...Polt has shit on him before. Stephano is just upping his game. MMA shit on Zenio doing the same build just using marines and unsieged tanks with medivacs. It's obviously possible otherwise these games wouldn't be so unbelievably close. | ||

The main staple of Stephano is infestors. If he could have stopped them in the first two games, he wins. Stephano is playing really great today. | ||

If he adds ghosts, snipes the infestors, or even EMP's them. He will win. Wrong. Infestors aren't even the main problem when facing that army. The main problem are Ultras and Broodlord and your lack of DPS against these units, hence why you either need marauders or vikings. Ghosts are not worth the investement just to emp infestors, they are essentially useless now against every other unit. | ||

Both Stephano and Polt will be there, and then they can have another epic match at IPL. :D | ||
