I'm pretty sure Bomber should take this tournament, If you recall he played endless amounts of games with Naniwa, Squirtle, and Parting to help train for GSL, and considering the STQ Protoss are widely renowned for their PvT I think it's safe to assume Bomber is a huge attribute to this.

For a first post this actually isn't off. I would add in a few factors You need to consider how mobile the opponent is. If he was fighting mech it wouldn't be a bad move to push out - but stimmed bio can just soooo easilly suddenly push up

Hehe.

More realistically though I'd imagine Bomber has been the TvP workhorse for Squirtle, Parting, and Naniwa the last few weeks. Bet he's ground out a ton of games.

If you delete warpgate, i'm okay with giving protoss arbiters.
But both is like way too much mobility )=

Squirtle hasn't lost yet.... And he still has the BossToss in the way.

Nestea is nowhere near as good as those two vs P

I'd say
Stephano DRG vs toss
Leenock DRG vs terran
Nestea DRG vs zerg

DRG obviously being the best zerg :p viOlet being a third in both ZvP and ZvZ or something.


honestly players like seal, symbol, and curious are better than Stephano in every matchup.

Tournaments like this are so much different than GSL because no one is preparing for Stephano.

I really think he competed in the GSL he would be demolished down to Code B almost immediately.

Making comments like that is pretty ignorant. Until Stephano plays in GSL you wont know if these results will translate over. He is VERY good. I'm not even a huge Stephano fan but anyone saying otherwise is lying to themselves.



Then shouldn't he actually play in the GSL? Whats stopping him. What was the last thing big tourney Stephano won?


The better question is, what was the last big tourney other NA/EU players finished better than Stephano in?



That would be a good question if GSL was only played by NA/EU players. Hint: It isn't. Stephano will get crushed.

The only foreigners who could compete are Thorzain and Naniwa.


Why is Stephano getting this kind of treatment after 2-0 Parting and 2-3 MC.


Because people are stupid as hell.
:/


Because every foreigner gets this treatment, and rightfully so. The GSL is the toughest tournament in the world, and until you've seen how someone performs over there you can't say for sure how they'll measure up. Naniwa went through this plenty. Why is Stephano any different?

Nani of course went on to - eventually - prove himself in the GSL after a few embarassments. Stephano might well perform better than Nani. But we don't know.


and maybe koreans are favourised beacause they play on their own soil, just maybe....



Yes, like NA players at MLG lol
