No offense, but for a "top level" showmatch get DRG and MC or Genius or whatever, so you get your every GSL day high level play. But White-Ra? That's a game of chance. He either demolishes or gets demolished. He CAN beat everybody I'm quite sure of that, just not consitantely. So he makes for a MUCH MUCH more entertaining contender for a showmatch if you ask my humble opinion. In fact there is NO ONE I enjoy watching more then him. Plus, I don't like probe rushes You're in the minority and I don't think you'd be saying that if/when Stephano 5-0's him. | ||

That's fine because everyone does those kind of massive risky builds in PvP it's part of the matchup, but don't pretend it's some super skill based build. You should also remember that old warp prisms were made of glass so there was a huge chance his warp prism gets shot down and he auto loses. White Ra took a huge risk, he won a best of one. The end. just because he took a risk doesnt mean he played bad, the defensive control of the warp prisem was crazy good, at a point were he needed it and was almost dead(he just had an inferior army). | ||

Also since its a showmatch maybe Stephano will try something new also lets see | ||

There's absolutely nothing wrong with risks in PvP (or any matchups, every player should all in around 1 in 3/4 games) but I think it's really dumb when people say someone got outplayed because they lost to something like that. It's no more outplaying MC than MC outplaying White Ra by building gateways in White Ra's main. | ||

I really didn't think Stephano was such a gambler. He seemed more to me like the safe guy. Maybe he is really really confident he will win though, but Nani beating Leenock and Nestea should make him worried. | ||
