This is not the place to talk about LoL viewership.

This is also not a place to caster bash/balance whine/flame, etc.

Please don't argue about how many views LoL has, or which game is better, or we will be upset.
(added page 174)

Also, lay off Scarlett please. (added page 227)

I think the only players Stephano isn`t capable of beat is Nestea and probably, probably, MC (but Stephano`s ZXP got so much better since last HSC).


Because TvZ and TvT are different matchups?

MKP is the best terran atm imo. He owned DRG twice recently.

Oh right, he lost 2-1 to MKP in close games, that means he just ''can`t'' beat MMA, right?

Stephano's games so far have relied on his opponent making a mistake. That isn't going to happen, especially against TvZ experts like Jjakji and MMA.

At the Iron Squid, stephano was stomped by Jjakji then forfeited to MMA. I wonder why?

You have reading problems. As I said, and I`ll repeat, If Stephano is capable of beating Polt, he does have a chance to win against MMA.

no one has the same winrate in every matchup.
best TvZer =/= best TvTer. his logic is absolutely sound.
and the reason he might struggle against MMA is that his TvZ winrate is 80%, which is absolutely ridiculously good, and its against players like DRG, who isnt exactly bad at SC2

No, it's not?? I have no idea why you're throwing it out there like it's a fact, you have nothing to back this up. Especially considering MMa ahsn't played much lately whereas MarineKing has, and has beaten every Zerg.


Not to mention they play completely different styles. Stephano might be better against MMA's style which revolves more around gimmicky dropping and Stephano has shown he's good against that.
