USA USA STEPHANO!

E-Sports is competitive video gaming with a spectator fan base. Do not take the word "Sports" literally.

I don't think about it. I just know what to do. - Stephano

That's the difference between Stephano and other Zergs, imo - the X factor.

You must have missed the part where it took them 5 minutes to get Stephano's attention before the last game started. =P I have no doubt that they were soundproof. =D

Well, moderators, there you have it. Stephano said he likes it when Americans chant "USA" when he is playing.

Stephano is so "cute" in interviews ^_^

IPL shouldn't have let the community pick. We all knew this would be a total roflstomp as soon as it was announced.

Even Idra vs Huk would have been better.

The production and the atmosphere were good though just lacklustre games.

Even Thorzain doesn't challenge Stephano that much. Didn't Stephano 4-1 him the last tournament.

And you think a voice of a human being, even a screaming one, is going to get through those headphones?


Well personally, I didn't know exactly what kind of headphones they were using but I know that using soundproof headphones at lan myself, I could still hear the casters over the speakers (although it sounded quite hollow) and all it takes to hear more is to angle one of the headphones slightly so there's a slit between it and your ear and you'll hear just fine. Even on camera, I think that would be a very easy thing to do and I don't think anybody would notice either.

I'm not accusing anyone of cheating I just think a soundproof booth AND headphones would be a better option. I remember reading in the past about some of the players talking about how they could hear the casters regardless of their booth/headphones but that may have been an isolated, corrected incident.

IPL did soundproof booths for their last live event. I am sure they will have them for IPL4, I don't think they were terrible worried about the players hearing the casting, and it defiantly didn't affect the outcome.

Wow, that was quite a lame way to hand out a trophy.

I think it was adequate given that this trophy does not really mean much.

Of course. But the crowd seemed willing and eager to cheer. I think it deserved at least a bit more building up. I mean, think of how carmac would have done it.

Still, great showmatch. ggs!

You might be thinking of huk vs select at MLG DC (i think), where huk mothership rushed, and the crowd was going crazy, and he typed in "don't worry, taht's just halo" or similar
By.Sun or By.Rain, he always delivers

I do think it was 4 - 0 last time Stephano met Thorzain... nah, the guy is just a whole level above. I'd have loved to say Naniwa and Huk have a chance, but they're Protoss, and Steph's ZvP, well.
I got five reasons for you to shut up

thing is, even if he'd hear anything, progamers are far too focused on the game to process it

even starcraft relies so much on the sound
