Wait so if stephano just beat the GSL runner up, do the anti stephano people agree that he could actually do well in gsl?

Personally, I think the most insane thing is that he does the same thing so often and still wins with it. And it isn't like its easy to execute, other zergs try it and just don't have the same success.

I'm actually a bit surprised stephano hasn't started the DRG strategy of mass roach-->mass spine/mutas. He forces his opponent into immortal/sentry if they ever want to take a third base and mutas destroy that.

that last match was just awful by Squirtle, he seemed tired or something.

Not the Squirtle from GSL finals or IPL4

Congrats to him, even though I'm not much of a fan

Stephano is great but still, these games shouldnt work like this, he can just throw away stuff all the time and the momemnt squirtle misses 1 ff hes dead while stephano is hardly doing anything (not hating, I just dont think it matters if he micros or not).

What actually impresses me is that he found this buildorder and perfected it to this level, it makes protoss 2 base allins look silly and crushed 3rds, dunno how he even drops games with this

Tbf there is almost nothing to micro if you play Zerg. I have never seen amazing Zerg micro like you see amazing Terran micro and, a little rarer, impressive Protoss micro. The design of the game and its focus on burst damage makes microing worth almost too much effort to bother with if you play Zerg. You basically get 2-3 control groups up and a-move them through different avenues and occasionally focus-fire if you have the APM to spare.

Not hatin', just pointing out that not even NesTea or DRG can make Zerg micro look good.

Maybe because he is a very good player?
Didnt plan on marrying that guy.

Apart from that there are plenty of other arrogant players, MC for example.

Yeah but as MC showed, his build order is weak to Phoenix play. And it's not really a build order as such; it's reliant on well-chosen attacks and roach splitting.
I'm not bad at Starcraft; I just think winning's rude.
