Stephano vs Grubby... Was so one sided, you barely saw one side of it...

Stephano's timings are better, his engagements are better, and he possesses that Korean aura now. People will go full foreigner against him now and play subpar because they're that intimidated.

He's matched his ZvP with MC and HerO, his ZvT with MKP and MMA, his ZvZ with Nestea... And came out changed.

Does it make Stephano korean? I am tired of the whole USA thing. He should start eating kimchi and learning korean.

I feel the same way... might help a bit but not the real reason...... (similar to playing against koreans maybe?)

Well, Stephano just calmly murdered everybody.


Agreed. Mana, Socke, Grubby and Kas are all really skillful players and yet Stephano made it look easy. Congrats to Stephano. He dominated his opponents in this tournament, all quality players too.

Thanks to Take and all the players, casters and sponsors. A very enjoyable mini-tournament. Don't understand German, but nonetheless, it was very entertaining.

Looking forward to Home Story Cup!

So it's Stephano in first place and Mana in second?

Congratulations to Stephano. What a one sided affair. I'm curious how he will do in Korea, as there doesn't seem to be a foreign pro that can reliably beat him.

Also amazing casting. It's so good to hear players casting the games. They have so much more insight and knowledge and the really calm style of casting is a good change and really enjoyable.

Foreigners play scared vs. Koreans, and they play scared vs. Stephano. It's a demoralizing effect, and makes Grubby, Socke, Munchi, Kas, White-Ra, etc. struggle hard against him because they're afraid of cheesing, afraid of pushing, afraid of timing, etc.
