He was wasted in his games against MC (in HSC4) and did a all-in on Dual Sight in the Blizzard Cup. I hardly call that a good argument.

Try to watch Stephano vs toss and your mood will be way better


But all the tosses will want to hang themselves.

He defends your early aggression flawlessly, and if you try to do a 2 base timing he has so much roach/ling that the P will not have a chance. If the toss survives to the lategame, he will have to face a terrifying army of broodlord/infestor.

That game was...kind of bullshit. Idra must be raging so hard from that build. It should not have worked and that is why it worked because no one would seriously go forge 4 gate into nexus so idra thought it was an allin and made nothing but units.

yay, Feast, well played Sir.

Grubby mentorship pays off :D


Yeaaaaaaaaah right. The fact that Idra does not bother to l2p by watching some DRG/Stephano vods pays off.
The way that guy thinks is beyond me. Watch how they who manage to do it do it, then do it yourself.

And why must Grubby be in everything? Can someone explain why this guy is so important? Just a mediocre attention seeking ex wc3 pro.


What the hell are you talking about? and Grubby is fucking awesome.


I am talking about Stephano's insane ZvP and Idra's inability to mimic it. With Idra's mechanics he should be able to pull it off. Seing Stephano v P makes me feel bad for the toss, seing Idra v P makes me think the match-up is unbeatable from the Zerg POV.

Also, I am wondering about Grubby and why he is that awesome as you say. It's off topic but please pm me some links to threads, vods etc that explain this. I am really, honestly wondering.

Quick eco and then tonnes of roach pressure with the aim of denying protoss from taking a third. After about 5 waves the protoss just buckles and dies.

From what ive seen, he usually defends whatever pressure/timing protoss throws at him insanely well, then slows the third over and over again with roaches; eventually protoss doesn't have the economy to deal with his hive transition.

Honestly, he just looks solid as fuck every time he plays. It's really awesome to watch.
ModeratorProtoss all-ins are like a wok. You can throw whatever you want in there and it will turn out alright.

After Idra game just watch some Stephano vs P and ull feel better



So true..Thanks for the tip!

I seriously try to avoid Idra v P in fear of adapting some kind of incredibly negative view on the mu :p

His vP doesn't make any sense, he just mass roaches basically but holds every all-in every game.

It's his superior game sense and strong mechanics.

I think he was hangover but MC would have won regardless.

he has his build down to a science and any early aggression he is completely economical at dealing with, he never misses an inject or gets supply capped, in g3 idra had to panic build 5 overlords, you dont see stephano doing this in tourneys, stephano has better mechanics and reading of the game
