Stephano's best shot is if Squirtle somehow upsets Nestea and MKP/MMA don't make it through their end of the bracket to face him


Stephano loses every single game he played vs squirtle.

When was the last time he played vs squirtle?

When was the last time he played a meaningful game vs squirtle?

The only time I remember stephano vs squirtle was when stephano was in Korea. Yes stephano mostly lost, but he has improved a ton since then and most of squirtle's win came of timing windows that do no longer exist in stephano's play. These days he is much better at calmly defending air harass. He is better at anticipating and dealing with +1 zealot timings. He manages to make his play a bit more greedy in places where he could get away with it, for instance in Korea when doing his 3 base 60 drones roach max push he used to get first 2 gas at 36-38 supply, but these days he usually gets it at the intentional supply block at 44. Similarly he used to get lair at 52-56 quite often, but these days he usually waits till 60 drones, 4 queens (70 supply if not prompted to build units other than 4-6 lings). All this makes him much safer against just the type of stuff squirtle used to do to win against him. Squirtle is still a fearsome opponent, but there is such a divide in the state of these players since they last played and now that you can hardly use that as evidence either way.


you know stephano so well








how well do you know squirtle improvement

then again the match has not been concluded yet

I know close to nothing of squirtle besides what I have seen in this tournament and some code A + GSTL matches. However stephano improved a ton. Maybe squirtle improved just as much, maybe he didn't. I'm just saying that we can't conclude much from late 2011 ladder matches between these two. Especially in how mostly squirtle won via holes in stephano's play that have now been mostly fixed.

Where can I find the schedule of tonight? I want to see the order of the games
And I really hope they will stream most of the games.

...you know... try the front page of this thread? >.>


I think he wants to know which matches are on which stream and in what order. Right now the front page doesn't have any info on that, only which times you will see Lower Bracket Round 1 etc.

Oh ok, well I'm not sure in which order they'll be streamed per round, although I read somewhere that they'll quite simply start from the top and work their way downwards during each round if you look on the Liquipedia chart:
http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/IGN_ProLeague_Season_4

Which, if you cross-reference it to the below schedule, that would mean the following:

Championship Bracket

Stream 1 – Stage

Winners 1 – 10:00am - NesTea/Squirtle
Winners 1 – 11:00am - MKP/MMA
Losers 1 – 12:00pm - Loser of NesTea/Squirtle vs Loser of Bomber/Stephano
Winners 2 – 1:00pm - Winner of NesTea/Squirtle vs Winner of Bomber/Stephano
Losers 2 – 2:00pm - Winner of (Loser of NesTea/Squirtle vs Loser of Bomber/Stephano) vs Loser of (Winner of MKP/MMA vs Winner of Polt/aLive)
Losers 3 – 3:00pm - Straightforward
Winners Final – 4:00pm - Straightforward
Losers Final – 5:30pm - Straightforward
Grand Final – 7:00pm - Straightforward

Stream 2

Winners 1 – 10:00am - Bomber/Stephano
Winners 1 – 11:00am - Polt/aLive
Losers 1 – 12:00pm - Loser of MKP/MMA vs Loser of Polt/aLive
Winners 2 – 1:00pm - Winner of MKP/MMA vs Winner of Polt/aLive
Losers 2 – 2:00pm - Winner of (Loser of MKP/MMA vs Loser of Polt/aLive) vs Loser of (Winner of NesTea/Squirtle vs Winner of Bomber/Stephano)


Not 100% sure 'bout this, but I think it's somewhat accurate.

If would be one thing if the poll asked who do you want to win. This poll says who will win. I mean I guess it's up to your interpretation

I'm still waiting for your excuses about how on earth did Stephano manage to beat "the PvZ monster who's better than him" and "Curious who's definitely better than him".

What was that you said? "people will stop overhyping Stephano" since he'll lose to JYP and Curious?

Looks like that came back to hit you in the face..

Yeah that hit me in the face so hard, i'm so crushed because my predictions were wrong.

Dragonborn and you are fucking scary lol, you guys really need a life besides defending Stephano's honor in LR threads.


you need a life as well.Do something insteaded of bashing stephano in LR threads.

Oh shit, MMA vs MKP? Now we finally get to see who is the current Terran King. If MKP crushes him, he's the best player in the world without contest.

MKP said that Polt and Nestea were the two players he said that if he could beat, he would win IPL4.

Well it's sometimes hard to separate guys who write bullshit all the time and the ones that actually write something useful- He probably took you for the latter, that's why he answered you.

I don't really give a fuck lol
