Are you joking? If you couldn't appreciate mma's amazing decision-making in that game I don't know what to say :/
I mean, ZealotOrgy could have easily achieved higher level play than both MMA and Stephano that game (at the same time, controlling both armies, of course), so it's no surprise that he's a little unhappy with that boring, lackluster, mediocre/awful game...

MKP did not destroy Stephano lol...Stephano made 1 mistake in game 2 and lost. He just straight up lost game 3. He beat him game one....
MMA is the best TvZer in the world so Stephano lasting that long against such FUCKING INSANELY AWESOME DROP PLAY and MULTITASKING with minimal practice, means Stephano COULD be very successful in the GSL with more practice.

WTF? Why the hell was that a mediocre? What more could you ask for? You see Broodlord You siege tanks at your PF and send MMM to snipe the expansions of the BroodLord user. That's masters level play. Where were the spines? The banelings? The 10 Broodlords IDLING doing nothing for 10 minutes because he was running back and forth his lings like a clueless player? bad game I don't even know where to start raging at this...
You "rage" in online discussions?
You must have an interesting life.

Isn't it a moot point to think Stephano would do well in GSL? He clearly is not going for whatever reason. He won't succeed in GSL because he won't try.

Well if he was truly trying hishardest would of probably gave moreemoton whenhe lost.he kind ofjust shrugged it off. Unless he stopped being emotonal after losing.

I'm feeling sad for Stephano right now. Playing his absolutely best, defending so well against drops, but I wonder how it is supposed to be possible to deal with all drops, while trying to stay ahead with the Terran economy? He needs one base more so Zerg has always one base more to defend against drops, so the main army will be even smaller when he splits it...
I don'T know, I just can't see a way for Zerg to win against this Mass Drop play...

Stephano needs to spend two, three months in Korea to step up is play to the ultimate level. At this moment he isn't quite there... I expect a 1-1 following by MMA winning the series.

It's even worse than when Idra plays
LR threads are mostly bad and you are right they are getting worse when stephano plays. I don't know why I can't keep away from them, I think I'm addicted to LR threads :/

Squirtle countered him pretty well.

Other matchups in SC2 may have problems, but anyone who doesn't watch good players play TvZ is massively missing out.

MMA kinda schooled him, but it was far from being destroyed... And have you actually SEEN the games vs MKP ? 2-1 with the last game that could have gone either way ? Why the heck do you say destroyed ??
Yeah, destroyed is a massive exhilaration. But his games vs MKP were deceiving looking at a 2-1 score line. The only time Stephano looked threatening was when he allined, which he did twice, and the one that worked happened to catch MKP going for a quick 3rd which Stephano didn't scout. Both games that went longer, Stephano has no answer.

I dunno, obviously MMA's play was really good. But he wouldn't have been able to do so much dmg on any other map in the mappool. Every1 knows Cloud Kingdom is really Terran favored, let's see if MMA can pull it off on Stephano's map aswell.
