I don't think Whitera will put up that much of a fight.

Unless of course Stephano forfeits in the finals :D

I like White-Ra much better but I can't see Stephano losing this.
Done with Team Liquid for a while. Don't expect to find me here.

5-0 or 5-1 Stephano. I can't see White-Ra coming close to winning this. I don't like the casters for this showmatch, so I am not really sure if I am going to watch... And if I am going to watch, it is going to be muted.

I hate the people who say "i'm not going to watch cuz of the caster".
I think Doa and pajamas are really good at casting

Do you also not watch IPL and IPLTAC because of CatsPajamas and Doa? A lot of content that your missing. But yes, I agree with your 5-1 prediction. White-Ra will get 1 possibly 2 games due to either warp prism drops or air play but probably won't take any more off of Stephano. Stephano is still one of the best if not the best foreign zerg.

My heart says White Ra, but my brain says Stephano, he's on a tear at the moment.

if you watch his stream, you will notice stephano's uncanny ability to recognize little blips that pop up on the map. Like, the guy has an unusually high ability to focus when playing SC2.

What this translates to, of course, is that White-Ra's special tactics don't stand a chance.

I think people should tune in because these are two of the coolest guys in the scene duking it out over a very substantial prize-pool.

On ladder when I watch their streams I've seen White-Ra beat Stephano like 3 times to none, It's not the same as a showmatch but White-Ra has a good chance I think.

I feel like this will be the easiest 5k Stephano will ever make in his life, but I hope I'm wrong and its a close match

I'd predict a 5-2 or 5-1 for Stephano. White-ra can pull a few tricks that will make him win a few games, but I feel that Stephano is just an overall better player here.

Should be nice to watch tho!

As much as I love whitera, that is a whoooole lot of money to throw at what seems such a one sided fight. Unusual choice of players.

I do hope whitera has something new to offer, because stephano doesn't lose to protoss, let alone one who is (at the current moment) a mid-tier foreigner pro.

There are alot of comments about white-ra's "special taktics" possibly winning him some games. Honestly, I don't there there are any of those left in the game now. The only way to "surprise" stephano would be to alter some timings drastically or go for cancel/mindgame tactics. Warp prism midgame isn't what it used to be.

Too bad I don't live anywhere near Austin anymore. SXSW is always great.

I think Stephano will win, but the score will be close, maybe 5-3 or 5-4. White-Ra always has a few builds under his sleeves.
