It's hilarious how much better Koreans are. Stephano's winrate vs Koreans is in the 40%'s, yet he crushes every foreigner.

MC just won a Bo7 vs Stephano. It was pretty one sided as well.

5-3 is one sided?

In short, yes lol.

Stephano's ZvP is on another level, except against koreans i guess.


It's stupid though because in my opinion Ret is currently the second best foreign zerg..
But Stephano is still miles ahead of him

IPL against JYP.
JYP tried to do that heavy sentry/immortal 2 base timing, like Avenge did to beat Idra at GSL, but got rolled both times.
I've got moves like Jagger

It was 5-3, hardly 'one-sided'

Edit: oh, is it not the bo9 they played you're refering to?

I haven't watched Hero or MC vs Stephano. What did they do to beat him? Stargate or fast third robo or something else?

That's really bad logic.

Zerg massing roaching is like protoss 4 gating in the past though. Gets kinda boring, they should tune roaches down a bit.


no, THAT'S bad logic.

just because stephano is beating a lot of protoss with roaches doesn't mean it's overpowered. it just might mean that protoss aren't playing properly against it or stephano is just that much better.

Is stargate the only thing that beats Stephano or can you do it with early third -> robo as well? Didn't watch the MC games, please enlighten me ^^.


JYP went for Immortals and early third on daybreak and won against Stephano at IPL.

Same reason why any zerg doesnt look at Stephano's games and "just" copy paste.
There is no substitution for hard work.

5-3 isn't THAT one sided. I think he held his own against one of the best PvZ players in the world.

was stephano ever a mid-tier pro? all I remember him was exploding into the scene.


He was at january 2011, he was playing only online cups. At start he used to lose in the first rounds of cup, because it's BO1, and he was cheesed everytime.

Then, he trained to play against cheeses, and joined the last rounds, but didn't won btw.

Then, his manager told him his injections was very bad, and he trained his injections.

In may 2011 he started to win most of online cups, in august he won IPL. In September ESWC.

Sick progression, but it took some time...like 5 month

Stephano cant win playing like that against the korea tier Ps.. Its not a balance issue.

They beat him by spreading their army and creating lots of efficient encounters, rather than deathballing and frontal attacks.

Mostly they held on til late game and then went multitask nuts and created lots of efficient encounters.

Not easy, both the MC and Hero series were quite the display of protoss mastery IMHO

I would say anyone winning FIVE matches in a BO7 is pretty one sided.
You sure this wasn't a BO9?

5:3 isn't really what I'd call one-sided.
