I think Thorzain actually won last time they met (2-1). They might have faced each other after that though.

Having White-Ra in a showmatch is always great, because then we get to see very creative pro-level games, which we wouldn't see otherwise. Doesn't matter at all whether he got stomped or not.

Naniwa 2-0'd Stephano at Dreamhack. He was definitely the guy who should have played.

Yeah, We had some fun and fairly close games, though Stephano was clearly a level above WhiteRa.

Impeccably run event.

IPL is really doing a great job. I hope this event turned some people unfamiliar with competitive SC2 into fans!

Whether or not Stephano could hear "THIS MOTHERSHIP HAS NO ENERGY" doesn't matter too terribly much, considering he showed he COULD just smash White-ra in efficient, boring games with pure roach/ling aggression. In the end Stephano said he was just having fun with him.

Haha, looks like Stephano had kind of a bet to take the islands on Metropolis :D

Tomas ‏ @Vassaste_Kniven
@MillStephano You were soposed to take the islands, not timingpush him with roaches Gg..

MillStephano ‏ @MillStephano
@Vassaste_Kniven It was just a small pressure I was teching and droning behind it. He should have been able to defend it : (

I don't know why people are against White-Ra - he delivered a lot of entertainment for what was, in the end, a showmatch with a prize. We saw plenty of standard play in other tournaments this weekend; I relish every chance I get to see alternative strategies at a very high level, and White-Ra always delivers with flair. Plus he's such a nice guy that from any perspective you view this, it's win-win. Stephano is also a great player and it was nice to see him respond to funky builds and come ahead, he really is almost invincible.

Stephano is revolutionizing this build of his. It owns toss, it owns terran... He's basically playing with one of the top EU toss'es. I can't wait to see more of him.

What the hell... 5k? That's what the price for an MLG used to be last year. This is like giving Stephano money.

Naniwa 2-0'd Stephano at Dreamhack. He was definitely the guy who should have played.


To put this into perspective though, Stephano played very poorly overall at DH. One of the few times I've been really disappointed with him in a tournament. I'm sure Stephano vs. Naniwa would be quite spectacular though, if there's one foreign protoss that can take Stephano on it's him. I still would give Stephano the upper hand if they were to play right now however.
