Lol I don't know what "wop" means, but that "world of pizza" made me lol, thank you good sir.


to solve the actual mystery about wop:

wop

An epithet used for those of Italian descent. WOP stands for WithOut Papers. Many Italian immigrants had no papers to identify themselves and were branded as WOPs.

What's a wop?


Wop is an early 20th century American racial slur for Italian immigrants. Why blizzard felt like they need to censor it is beyond me.


It's still used today and is still offensive that's why.

Oh I know, i just meant I wished it had turned out to be Nani instead. I'm tired and worded it badly lol.

So stepahno goes blind muta vs double stargate , forces range phoenix then builds more mutas but with infestors range doesn't matter.

white-ra builds 6 voidrays the map zerg is most likely to go 2base muta on, loses them all without doing any damage, has an amazing hold due to the upgrade but dumps too much into harass and carriers to be able to hold indefinitely.

Why are protoss being so mad, saying the range upgrade is useless ?

Without infestors, Stephano lost like 20 mutas and killed only 2 phoenixes. That's absolutely huge.

Obviously, the fungal changes everything but you're not going to complain about fungal growth now are you ?

But then you make infestors and the phoenix is useless

just to follow your logic: then u make HTs and infestors are useless.

see how it works? ^^


And then it come done to the micro skills of the players so good job Blizzard


Proxied double stargate fails and zerg wins with anything he decides to do = phoenix range upgrade is a joke.
It's more important to be tough than to have any fun.

Naniwa has no fans

White-Ra does get $1000, though, so that's nice for him.

The only time I've ever heard "wop" was in a George Carlin album. But, I don't live on the east coast, so maybe that's just me. Anyway, Go white-ra! More games!

Yes thats the point but then Stephano countered that by Infestors

And infestor/muta is countered by HT's, it's a vicious cycle.

But it's not the same, infestor/muta vs HT comes down to control and numbers while phoenix vs infestor you lose every single phoenix if you get caught by one infestor.
