erm Whitera is one P that Stephano is pretty wary of. Last time I saw them play Whitera won, but I don't know their record. Very much doubt it will be 5-0 or 5-1.

Well this is to be honest just free money for Stephano. I do like both but I think this showmatch is kind of unevenly matched.

I can't understand why we're still overhyping ex European BW semi-pros, 2 years after the beta...

Judging at their last results, Grubby is right now a superior Protoss player than White-Ra and he is like 0-20 against Stephano, this showmatch is going to be ridiculous.

Feast vs Stephano would be a far more interisting showmatch, even though the fact that they play together favors quite the Zerg a lot.

This is pretty awesome, 5k showmatch will be huge for either player.
I want to say Steph easily, but White-ra never fails to deliver, don't count him out.

I hope Whitera can take a map or two. I don't know how but 0-5 would be very sad.

Nah, feast has no chance against stephano in PvZ, white ra has bigger chance than him tbh.
Just watch feast vs stephano in raidcall invitational tournament, stephano was running circles around feast who just tries 2 base blink based allins most of the time.

It's a showmatch, and they both know it.

Obviously Stephano is going to win but it will most likely end 4-2 or 4-3 with both of them going for ridicolous builds/strategies MVP-NesTea style.

This is why Stephano never has to go to Korea.

Actually I think this could be closer than we think. White ra has shown several times that he performs very well in showmatches. Imo he is a very good at preparing for a specific opponent. Anyone remember the bo15 showmatch white ra vs tlo where white ra won like 7-1 wiht some crazy sniping strats? Even tlo should not be considered at stephano level he actually started to have decent results as zerg around this time ie winning some playhem tourneys and also the heat charity event was shortly after that.
I honestly believe that white ra has more chance beating stephano in a showmatch than any other foreigner protoss (btw, I know that huk played gsl code s and naniwa has beaten nestea three times in a row)
