Xigua destroyed it against Killer without using Hydras. He forced a few FF's and he threw spines. People are forgetting how late Idra's roach warren was. He had slow roaches against Immortal/stalker/sentry. Even if Feast didnt have those two immortals, i dont think Idra was going to hold it.

That Reebok advert is so incredibly annoying.

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. Grubby is one of the most humble and nice players in all of esports, really not cool to say things like that about him. He isn't attention-seeking and he works hard -- he's not the best yet, but you don't become a WC3 legend without having sick potential. I have faith that he'll continue to improve.

Real with that mothership all in could have won if it was executed by MC.

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'm not going to lie, but I don't think Stephano's mechanics are that much better than any other top tier foreigner. For some reason he just holds shit off though.

I downloaded the Polt/Stephano replays from Assembly. Stephano has stupidly fast APM, way faster than Polt.

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. Smells like excuses. It's an explanation. Plus MC is a special protoss, a very good one. No shame in losing to him. You, and some others spend their free time to bash Stephano in every thread and that's fine. Just stop doing it when he isn't playing that makes you look bad. And by bad I meant something else that manners forbid me to say.

that b.o by feast on c.k was pretty cool

How does stephano typically play ZvP? 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
Hey hey, at battle of berlin, stephano got hard supply blocked twice against Goody and lost both of those games. In one of those games he was blocked at 128/128 and made 11 overlords at the same time right as goody was pushing.
never is too strong a word

what happened in Kas-Feast?

Why does ESL have the best t-shirts?
First the 4 Gate/6 Pool/that Terran one that I forgot, and now Probes & Pylons, Drones & Overlords and... possibly a Terran one.
