Stephano fans never rage at all. top 4 is a good performance


Top 4 not too shabby. Somewhat disappointed that the better player lost Good timings and mix of builds from MC. He simply out maneuvered Stephano over the course of the series. It's easy to give advice in hindsight, but Stephano really should do everything in his power just to take games to the late game. Let MC get his third. MC techs too slowly and is not good at all in late, late game situations. He's very, very good up until that point though. Time for MC to lose to Squirtle now I guess.

Let's be honest. The 11 min roach max rush is basically the zerg version of 1-1-1, only better and safer as you can still play standard if it didn't outright kill the toss. The other style stephano plays is the mass bl roach infestor ling play which is in late game.

Other than those two styles he is pretty one dimensional. Players of MC and MVP's caliber who can adjust within a series is always going to find a way to win the series whether it be cheese (MVP vs Toss) or just adjusting timings and build orders (MC vs Stephano).

Stephano fans like to ignore the IPL fight club even though it only happened a month ago, but MC adjusted fully to Stephanos style and won 5-2.

I'm sad for Stephano.

I really think he has to study more diverse strategies for the mid-game to surprise his opponent... If he doesn't do it, his code S spot will no last long...




He doesn't have a codeS spot to begin with

And on Entombed he won a game by going Ling/Infestor against pretty much the same composition MC used to beat him in the last game

It was just a matter of not getting the 3rd for 100HP.


Wasn`t he invited to code S this season?

Stephano uses this strategy because its good and he can execute it perfectly... the games were really close.

But I agree that to play in Code S he needs to diversify or he will be blind countered every time (and this is not only in ZvP).

is anyone else getting weird audio lag? the audio seems to desync from the picture the longer I let the stream go. it's fine right when I refresh, but it starts to desync and just gets worse from there.

MC was idras Nemesis not long ago. Now he is Stephano's.


If you count 8-to-5 months old games I guess it's true.

If you count recent offline performances MC's 3W-4L


Idra vs MC was a complete stomp.


To be fair to IdrA, most of their games were at a time where protoss was completely broken and they had to play on ridiculous maps.

Then again if IdrA was to play MC right now i don't think the result would be very different than it was before.



No...MC won at least half of the games against IdrA when zerg was favored in the matchup, even heavily favored. Historically Z has probably been more favored in the matchup than P, though both have had month long streaks.

I thought MC choosed his builds very wisely on each map.
From a low level T point of view, it seems to me that the problem is holding this style as master P in the same way it is to deal with lategame P as a master T. I mean there is obvious happiness for some P players to see this roach style punished, which is a good thing as the mu is terribly boring at the moment, but the porblem if this roach max has been an answer to protoss timing attacks after ffe. PvT & specially PvZ are far from becoming as interesting as TvZ to me as a spectator. In game it is still really nice mus.

Symbol has been bossing it up recently, and I really feel like B4 will be a contender in the coming months.
