That was like 'You can go to Med School now' by MMA. Really destroyed Stephano. Nice show though, not many players would have stayed in there that long while getting pummeled that hard.

They actually said that depending on ticket sales, they could break even on the event. That's pretty good for an emerging industry.


IPL is a marketing investement for IGN, they don't even have to get even to make this a success.

We can start comparing sc2 stream numbers to lol when watching the sc2 stream gives you ladderpoint and it pops up when you start the game.

At least I know if I'm ever wondering how many viewers LoL has, I can check a SC2 LR thread or stream chat


Is LoL really that interesting to watch? I find it boring.


Dota 2 is more entertaining in my opinion.

Polt and JJakji have better TvPs

I dont see them with 78% winrate in the matchup.

More important is the style of play.

Squirtle's quick colossus play destroyed MKP's marine-heavy pressure, which in turn is really effective against the chargelot/archon style that Parting was using. It's not enough to say 'Squirtle won, therefore Squirtle is favored against X', since there's no guarantee MMA would play the same way.

Hah, Why so much hate for Stephano? I know he's french, but there's got to be more to your reasoning!


every player left is much better than Stephano. It's not Stephano hate but nothing really touches the level of amazement between a top Korean vs another top Korean.
Everyone is either delusional, a nihlilst, or dead from suicide.

Well, if they don´t break even with this event (they obviously needed to adjust a lot while the tournament was already running) I am out of words.

@MillStephano
Sorry, i played really bad on that last game against MMA

It's Okay!


Okay, I think it's important to quote this and remind everyone that Stephano is even when losing still mannered and goes to the opponent for a handshake and says funny stuff ingame. And now he even apologies at his fans for the game.

I think Stephano changed a lot from the cocky guy he was before and is now a really nice and likeable guy. Just my opinion of course, but seeing all this stuff makes me think this way.
Just ahead of time, know your addiction's not a crime. It's just a smaller part of who you want to become in the end.

At this point Squirtle looks like the best player in this tournament.

This is the first time I saw MMA BMing someone so hard

Was NOT BM. Kinda surprised that the casters thought it was manner mules, if he was going to do it, he had done it like 5 minutes ago

Errr the whole second part of the game was "GET OUT" bm. Unless you think 5 stacked sensor towers is new metagame.

The sensor towers were, but the mules were not. I'd also hardly say MMA was saying "get out" in 2nd part of the game, he was just massacring someone that couldn't keep up and using nukes in essence like FFs.

I don't see MKP having a 80% winrate vs Zerg like MMA yet you keep saying MKP has the best TvZ in the world

He's the closest to MMA, but MMA is not close to 78% with his 48%.

Do you know what MMA / MKP do to Zenio? Really no offence to him, but Zenio is nowhere near Stephano in terms of ZvT ... -_- Stephano lost 0-2 to the best TvZ player in the world. He lost very close to MKP 1-2 who beat DRG not long ago convincingly. He dominated Bomber, beat JYP, beat Curious..

Give him a break and stop the hate.

Are you kidding? You also think he built 11 sensor towers because he needed them? :p


Well, I saw it as him being a showman myself. No so much him being bad mannered, but just having fun and giving the audience a good time. So maybe a bit BM, but not much.

Another reason why Stephano won't touch GSL. Too many good Terrans.

MMA in trouble now against Squirtle... his bad TvP might catch up to him.

We haven't seen MMA play proper TvP in months. Last time I remember him playing really well against Oz and Puzzle.

You missed where he lost against Choya and Vines in GSTL

You missed my post where I told you why he lost.

Cause he's bad at the matchup?

MKP lost to proxy marauders.

MKP's TvT must be crap amirite

Pretty sure MMA TvZ is the best matchup we have in SC2.. I can't remember anyone even really having a close game with him since DRG in blizz cup. According to GOM website he has a 88.6% TvZ winrate in GSL

That being said his TvT has been kind of average by his standards lately and hes never been good at TvP..

Nestea is in a really good spot if someone else will take out MMA. I think he can definitely beat Alive/Squirtle and even MKP but not MMA
