Last night was ridiculous.

You really can't say Puma doesn't understand this matchup, maybe he lost it a bit atm, but beating DRG/Stephano/Idra/July etc all doesn't come without understanding the matchup.
Don't inflate stephano's commanding victory saying Puma is shit at TvZ.
If you're just going to post scores like that, you may want to actually try to remember how those games played out. I'm posting this in this thread for the 3rd time now.. Almost all of Puma's wins against good Zergs were 11/11 or some kind of early allin/cheese, including those games against Ret and July from the NASL you mentioned, or the ones against DRG from Dreamhack. Lately however, he seems to try and go for the macro games, and his results have taken a nosedive because of it... He should go back to doing 11/11 proxy rushes, it's what he's good at.

Stephano is a monster, imo the best foreigner zerg by far but come on just stop saying he's the best zerg in the world.

I think you are misreading this topic, most of the hate is going towards Stephano atm. Either way, the hate/fanboyism is taking on ugly forms. Can't we enjoy the games without bashing/trolling/hating?

Sad for puma. He's my fav T I love the kid. He always seems hard on himself, I hope he just SHITS on lucky.

So who's Stephano playing against again? New guy?

"Finland rocks!"
-shows half empty room-

To clarify a few things:
1. Stephano beat Polt in the last bo3 and Polt beat Stephano in bo3 before that. 2. Stephano generally beat Polt on the ladder (go to youtube and search for Polt and Stephano). 3. Stephano is the best foreigner. 4. Stephano is a top 5 zerg. His ELO in international events is higher than all zerg's and is just below IMMVPs.

Puma keeping his head down, the shame must be strong.
Life is harsh, it did him good today, hopefully he will take the lesson to heart and bounce back a bit stronger.

Flash is so good that taking a game off of him can actually be considered a claim to fame :p) Yeah good way to put it.
Just MVPs domination for those few months and imagine that domination for years. I guess thats how dominant flash was..

That wouldnt be TL without it, we have 2 big polarities here being EU hero and NA hero, though only 1 has results and it makes other side kinda bitter.

Am i the only one that thinks the Host is looking kinda unproffesional? He seems to know little too nothing about starcraft and doesn't come out his words sometimes.
Furtherly nice tournement!

Where did all crowd go TT

Idra is so famous because he has a good mouth to promote him. Other than that...
Stephanos is cocky but he wins to back it up. And when he loses he acknowledges the players skill not like idra.
In my eyes stephano is miles ahead of idra.

Foreign Zerg Power Ranking:
#1. Stephano: his hair gives him super strength
#2. Ret: swag
#3. Dimaga: somehow manages to win while also being the host of many IEM events
#4. TLO: beard, your argument is invalid
...
# 223472: Uniden's offrace Zerg
