well, there it is


Yup, Stephano is now 5-10 against MC, including the series they played with all the lag. Other than that, it is 2-5, with this series including his first ever map.


Online dont mean shit:D Stephano beats him when it matters:D


Like at Homestory Cup 2/3 and Blizzard Cup?


You mean the HSC where Stephano was still attending school and wasn't even a full-time pro player?

Oh well, if that counts..

Stephano is 5-10 vs MC. MC is better than him (as evidenced by MC's two major LAN wins this year) but obviously Stephano is no scrub and is capable of beating MC.


The important part here is the reversal in score, it's like the whole Polt vs Stephano story, he used to get crushed by Polt all the time, then he won some, and now he wins most of them.

Stephano lost to MC all the time before, the two latest records are 5-3 for MC and 2-0 for Stephano. Now I still think MC is better overall than Stephano but the rate at which that zerg player adapts and improves is impressive.


I thought the only time Stephano beat polt was at the Lone Star Clash.

Yeah, Stephano adapts and improves better than other players. He's 20-1 vs. Grubby but Grubby hasn't learned how to beat him, yet Stephano has managed to beat both Polt and MC, people who used to beat him all the time.

In the EU scene, he did it to Nerchio - reversing a bunch of tournament losses to Nerchio in ZvZ, and in the international scene Sen.

Really excited for this Symbol vs. Polt matchup!

Also, I just bought the Spring Arena 2 pass (first time buying MLG PPV.) Any VODs I should catch up on?


Watch Stephano vs Ryung and DRG vs Polt Both were great


Thanks! TvZ is my favorite matchup to watch, so that sounds awesome

Stephano beat Polt consecutively at Lone Star.

MC isn't at all better than stephano. He squeaked out that FC win after Stephano was coming off a 10 day lay off. Stephano is 6-1 against JYP, who is far better at zvp than MC. Stephano is the better player, IMO and this is evidenced by his having a higher Elo in the matchup. Having taken down MC Stephano will trust himself and stomp MC just like all of the other protosses - at least that's what I predict. Go Stephano!

Game 3 of socke v DRG on metropolis, cross spawn with DRG bottom left socke top right, socke going for an inbase pylon first!

Polt v Symbol game 1 on TDA, polt top left, symbol top right

2:00 13pool vs 13gate, now socke expanding 6 lings on the way to his base, could be in a lot of trouble.

5:00 2 zealots out now, lings cant get into main. third base on the way for drg,+1 and warp gate for socke

If I'm not wrong the 2-5 of Stephano against MC involves a 0-2 defeat at a HSC that was one year ago, I don't think that is the most relevant information to compare them.

You think JYP is better than MC at PvZ... Have you watched any starcraft in 2012?
