On Titan vs Stephano's topic, the drones micro on the third was siiiiiiiiiiiick o_O

Titan was floating 100gas pretty much the whole time but only started +1 attack after his attack retreated all the way back to the natural =/

And I still wonder why Idra claims its only DRG who can beat protoss atm.

Idra does not think that any foreigner can be better than him.

It's not so much the Korean style Stephano struggles against - after all, he was going toe-to-toe with a number of Korean Protosses on ladder eg Sage, Oz etc. MC is just a total boss, and has his own unique style that very few players, Korean or no, can emulate successfully.

Stephano vs (european) Protoss is the most boring matchup in SC2.

vs HerO, Parting, Squirtle and MC he should struggle for sure

I would contend that MC vs non-Korean Zergs is the most boring matchup in SC2.
Remember that time he straight-up killed a few European Zergs with a 3gate expand?

Well I'd say MC is quite an exception because of his insane blink stalkers micro and his insane 2 bases timing pushes, Stephano bested quite a few protoss while in Korea (one of them being Hero at the blizz cup), and I'd say his ZvP is even better now, even more solid against 2 bases pushes, so hopefully we will see him faced against names like Puzzle, Oz, Genius, HerO or MC again soon !
Edit : very weird build by Stephano, baneling but w/o banelings or ... ?

I would love to see Stephano playing (and getting raped) against them I don't know if we can REALLY count Hero, because he played actually fucking terrible the whole day in the Blizzard cup But I guess thats up to the perspective...

mmh, from my experience with mutas I'd say bye bye TiTan, but one could only guess that he has a better muta defense than me He should just take a third and cannon up...And not colossi!

Is someone else playing for Stephano atm? He has been supply blocked 4 times now.

Last "meaningful" korean toss he faced was Inori during NASL qualifiers, and he crushed him 2 0 with standard Stephano ZvP games. And yeah, HerO played terribly at the Blizzard Cup, indeed.

Well, InorI isliving in the US, isn't he? If we count him we should also count ReaL. Well, I don't  Also I doubt the ladder for the most part. Too many people just practice special builds regardless of what the opponent builds or don't take lader seriusly at all. Hell, there was a time where Puzzle just 3pylon blocked every zerg he met on ladder..:D

Still not conviced by this zergling into mutas on 2 bases build btw...maybe he wanted to go for a bbust and forgot nest ? Edit : 1 1 unless titan chokes, I think he made a major fumble in early game, and didn't manage to recover from it. But, what fumble...?

stephano is practicing his ZvT on toss?
