Some random nobody? Nerchio had the highest win rate in Starcraft 2 for quite awhile, and he is an incredibly underrated player.


I think he has a kind of ignorance that thinks sc2 is only being played in the US and Korea. Also according to this ignorance, if you never heard of someone, he must be nobody

Send MVP, send MC, send Hero, you can send whoever you want.


Nerchio has one more Korean to beat though.

Why do you have to be an asshole, Nerchio won, I'm disappointed in MC but happy for him, do you really need to say "suck it" just disrespecful and mean spirited.


Well, there is plenty of "bm" from fans of both sides

I really hate fanboys so much. This was literally a BO win. Nothing impressive about Nerchio this series whatsoever.

Actually Nerchio doesn't has very small amount of fans, it's just casual people cheering for him because he played very well and made a huge upset.
It's actually you who are being an annoying MC's fanboy denying Nerchio credit he clearly deserves.


Its a mixture of both.

You have nerchio fans/anti mc fans ALREADY SAYING NERCHIO IS BETTER THAN STEPHANO.

You have MC fans pulling the 'WTF MC YOU SO MUCH BETTER' card.

You have the people who are neutral replying and arguing to both. Standard LR after an upset.

Random nobody?

Nerdchio is the best EU Zerg other than Stephano.

Well with this win he maybe took the spot as best foreigner zerg. If he takes the tournament, I will call him current best foreigner zerg.


I don't think you can call someone the best foreigner zerg because of one tournament result, Stephano constantly posts consistently better results than Nerchio in big tournaments. Nerchio would have to win a couple more things before he could stake that claim.

reminds me of mana vs. stephano at dreamhack. nobody expected mana to win


I expected so it is not nobody! If you seen how stron mana PvZ was during group stages and how Stefano wasn't really concentraiting on competition as he usually does you knew there was something on.

Meh. I think it's ok for him to be happy with himself for winning against a very strong player. If he's not rubbing it in or anything (which he isn't) I don't think he's being too bm.

So how should he react? A slight frown? Blank stare? I agree, smiling after you took down the most successful protoss of all time is so BM, shame on Nerchio.

Yep, pretty bm to smile after you won.


hahahaha. I wouldn't call the smile bm, but the thumbs down was. MC does it all the time, I think it's fair for the opposite player to give a known bmer a taste of his own medicine.

Some of the hate might also be from stephano fanboys, who just can't handle their hero getting usurped by a better zerg.


lol no Stephano fanboys like Nerchio and Stephano is not getting usurped. Stephano also have beat MC. No idea wtf you smoking tbh

Nice, somehow we also had to bring some good old Stephano hate in here to make it the typical fan boy argument thread, eh?

Just as expected.

I guess people who haven't followed nerchio thought of MC as the favorite but the only thing that I was surprised of in this series was Nerchio losing to MC. However that was practically a build order loss so I can forgive him.


Probably the dumbest post ever on TL.

Until you read my earlier post at the start of the series where I said that Nerchio was the favorite over MC

It's still a rather unfounded statement considering the match record between them and how MC has been playing vZ on the last few tournaments, also how he was playing in this tournament, and the opponents he usually plays, which are mostly better than Nerchio. You're just considering one side of the coin and not viewing information in an objective way.

Saying Nerchio was the favorite is like saying Illusion was the favourite vs MMA yesterday. Yeah Illusion has been playing great, but it's still fucking MMA and he 2-0d him as expected.

Obviously a Nerchio win wasn't impossible, but it's still an upset. Congratulations to him!, when you're 0-5 against someone winning a series is extremely important in the morale department!

Combination of current Zerg strenght and how good Nerchio is vs allins and of course my personal bias.

Still people shouldn't be all that surprised, Nerchio chokes alot but at his best he's incredibly good(He didn't play his best in that series though).
