Even if violet-illusion goes 2-0, and stephano loses to ganzi, he still advances right?

maybe if violet 2-0's illusion and stephano gets 0-2'd then violet gets first, but stephano would still be 2nd.

it's more complicated if you look at the arena you will see that stephano lost a lot of the ZvZ against muta, making Violet strategy pretty smart

Violet vs Illusion for who goes through with Stephano, and Stephano vs Ganzi for whether Stephano comes first or second. Is that right? Or is Stephano first no matter what?

By the way!

The first from this group (Stephano) will face the 2nd of group D

So most likely a Stephano vs Parting/Squirtle round

If it's true that Stephano is through, we can expect a much worse game for him (assuming the result doesn't impact seeding or anything). Stephano is like a great athlete who just switches into a higher gear when he needs to.

Yes, he will allways advance since he beat Illusion and Violet so he will advance becuase of the head to head.

Whoever thought Stephano wasn't hungover for MLG probably doesn't think so now. ;-D

Seriously, love this so far, nothing does the heart good like seeing NA rising stars like Illusion showing their stuff!

Stephano/Illusion ftw!

Just imagine what some training in Korea will do to Stephano.


If anything Stephano only proves that you dont need to be in Korea to get great results.

Look at Jinro or Haypro - many months in Korea and absolutely no success whatsoever.

Looks like stephano is guaranteed first and it comes down to illu vs violet

Violet should still be able to steal first place, if he wins 2-0 he's at +2 and if Stephano loses 2-0 he's at +1. Illusion can't overtake Stephano though, and Ganzi is out.

That was a clutch game by Stephano. BO disadvantage into an uphill battle into a painful attack on Violet's roaches that he pulled back from. When those infestors then got sniped I thought he was done, but by chasing after those infestors Violet lost the roach battle momentum and once that swung Stephano was able to overpower him with sheer force.

The first game I saw where losing your infestors won you the game. But this is excellent for Stephano because he is now in the Ro8.

Glad Ganzi lost that. Manner mules are offensive GGs - it is BM plain and simple.

Annnnnnd Illusion drops those Mules just to remind Ganzi that it's a stupid thing to do. Totally outclassed Ganzi in that game.

So happy for Illusion :D


Please shut up, for the 100th time ganZi DID NOT THROW MANNER MULES. He threw mule bombs on top of sieged tanks. Wow -.-

I disagree - Ganzi was just trying to be cute, and then got roflstomped :3

LOL?
Since when have manner mules been BM?

You might as well say, "Get the fuck out of the game, you scrub". It wouldn't be any different.

man people really are over reacting to manner mules. They happen almost every game there is a Terran playing lol. MVP uses them all the time.


Yeah it's more funny banter than BM. MKP uses them a lot as well and nobody cries about it.

If IdrA had invented it, people would think it was the most BM thing in the world. So much pro-Korean bias. It's clearly an offensive GG.


lol people can't get over the Manner Mules? thats like the most common thing to do as T, I'd like to have something like that as zerg when I win^^

What? all the games violet won against stephano in mlg and here were muta openings


I haven't watched the MLG games, but he won game 2 here despite the Mutas, since they honestly didn't help a whole lot.
