Please have some respect for the players, teams, and tournament.
Criticism is fine, criticism without anything to back it up isn't so cool.
Thanks! |

So? You calling Sheth average?

I think you're giving him to much credit.

stephano is an example of pure hype.
he gets stupid amounts of credit for beating players like white-ra, who isn't even a top 15 protoss. Haha stop trolling. Did you watch Stephano ridicule Jyp 4-0 a few days ago?
As far as I know, JYP took really risky early 3rd all the games, so we can't really say it was hard to win those games.( I didn't see them, just heard some)

Sheth studied all the Stephano vs Polt replays since Assembly and had the perfect counter builds.

Demuslin, Ret and Haypro have beaten Nestea and MVP.
Shit, lots of foreigners have destroyed Nestea at foreign tournaments. Does this mean Nestea is an average Zerg?

No, his apm and mechanics are amazing. His gamesense and decisionmaking are obviously not quite DRG level though, which is really holding him back.

I think he still is. I don't think he's tried to re-qualify for the GSL since he forfeited his code S spot.

The swarm of mainly American/Canadians arguing this mantra endlessly is way worse than the few fans hyping him that high. And do you guys ever take *any* chance you can get to copy/paste this type of post. Why is it so important to jump in to try and spew it ? boggles the mind.

Damn I'm so close to falling asleep. 4 streams and they only show meaningless pool play matches instead of the do or die matches in the open bracket.
Would've loved to see Hasu vs TLO, Stephano vs Inori, Morrow vs Polt, Hasu vs Sheth, Polt vs Bling etc. when they're playing for their lives.
