Can't beat, wtf does that even mean? I definitely like his chances vs squirtle better than vs MMA.

But you don't care about the colossus if MMA would win, just because your favourite player lost to a push it's retarded? :/ Most Terran think it's stupid because you can't mech vP and it hardcounters bio. Hell you can mech vP. Ever had a look at this?

Stephano has a better shot vs. Squirtle than Nestea. I said it before and I say it again. Squirtle's PvZ is good, but it's not very different from what other Protosses Stephano has played do - he knows what to do vs. it, Nestea is nothing like that. Nestea beat Parting and Tails yesterday.... Parting is better than any Protoss Stephano has played. Tails is better than any Protoss Stephano has played besides JYP and MC.
Parting is not better than JYP and MC in PvZ.

dunno, aLive crushed Stephano 2-0 last time, but his TvZ doesnt seem too impressive as of late.
Squirtle seems strong against Zerg and could certainly defeat Stephano.

Is Squirtle even in code S? He's just crushing everyone this tournament it seems.

You haven't seen Stephano play against Squirtle have you? Ladder games mean nothing, remember? That was 4-5 months ago.
And what Korean protosses has Stephano beaten within the last 4-5 months? JYP? Tails?...yeah

Not entirely wrong, at least for the Squirtle part (Stephano ZvP has evolved a lot since the games on the KR ladder everyone refers to). As for Alive, I disagree though, he is favored against Stephano considering his strength in TvZ

It was some sort of school/college-tournament back in like late 2010 or something. It was pretty awesome, so soothing to listen to during matches and really relaxed and natural on camera. I respect him a lot from watching him climb the career ladder. Also seems like a really honest person, don't know why but that's the impression I always get.

No. Stop with this if you haven't actually seen Squirtle play Stephano, Squirtle destroys him every time.

Stephano, HuK, NaNiWa. Yes I think if Huk was in this trounament he would have done really well as too. he was in the tourney. he got eliminated really early. In a loser's final in the open bracket isn't all that early. I would suggest that Sase, Thorzain and Illusion are also quite good we have less than ten quality players who are close to being on a level with the Koreans. I hope that eventually there will be good forgien players in the GSL on their own skill and making deep runs a la Jinro and Huk. Eventually we'll have a GSL winner, I hope. its relative. if you dont get out of the open bracket, i consider that early. Consider the open bracket though, he was top 16 out of 128 which included about half of code S, and Code A most of the top Foreign talent and a lot of no names some of whom it turns out are really good. Decent enough point though, open bracket isn't its own tournament. But I still think Huk easily could have come out and, if he had, he would have done decently in groups. again, i didnt say he didnt do well. i just consider the fact that he didnt make it out of open bracket getting eliminated really early. if you think not getting out of open bracket is not early then thats fine. its just semantics.
Fair enough. I would generally consider it early, in this particular tournament I'm not sure I would qualify it as very early. I concede the point to you though, it was early enough.

I hope they remove it in HOTS and add a unit that requires more micro If only there was such a unit in BW that did sick splash damage but required sick micro to use effectively..... *thinks hard* .... ... ... + Show Spoiler + Crazyness. Madness. Such a unit can't exist! I'm not sure i would like the reaver that much in SC2, with the cluming of units, he would have to be considerably less powerful than in BW (just like tanks). And just like tanks it would probably get shit on by marines  What's this reaver you speak of?
Reaver with perfect scarab AI? Be afraid. Be very afraid.

LOL, I love catspajamas, he's one of those people I could never picture mad regardless of the circumstance.

Depends on the version of 1-1-1. If you go with more banshees (3+) you can focus fire the colossus with the tanks and the banshees. Fast colossus works pretty well against the raven 1-1-1
