MC isn't the best PvZ player.


Yes he is.


Seed and Squirtle are both better.


neither of them are better lol

I'd say all three of them are quite even at it right now


MC has more diversity than either Seed or Squirtle, that is what puts him one step above in my book. He just has the most complete repertoire of builds in PvZ, with at least comparable mechanics.


Seed has more diversity than any other Protoss... He is the only one that gateway expands a significant amount. Just a few weeks ago he showcased a completely new build where he got a quick 3-base and maxed out on pure Stalker.

Another boring game.

Come on, make it worth staying up for.


Its Stephano unless MC does something insane they tend to be run of the mill boring games

Come on that massive ling remax was cool to watch..


My 3v3 tactic for a year was to max out with 255 lings so mass ling has really lost its effect on how special it is ( And yes all the gas was used on overseers for mass contaminate )

There are tactics in 3v3? 0.o mind blown.


3v3 is probably the only good team game because of this

3v3 actually do have tactics unlike certain other team leagues...

however never listen to Draz for team league advice, he just leaves the game after being attacked by a single reaper


They hurt my starport which was building a raven

ehh yeah, I actually used it after you quit on us -.-


You know you could of just flown a barracks into the corner and they would have lost

Yes I am an MC fanboy!


Well, why would he need to practice? Stephano has only two builds...well actually one with a small deviation (either roach all-in, or roach, then continue into the standard infestor/BL)...And he has it perfected. He never needs to deviate from it, so what is the point of practicing it further?

I don't understand this legend, Stephano just crushes every toss who does not 2 base allin, he adapts very very well to any unorthodox build. He got his 3rd denied by hero but won the game, how do you explain that?

He didn't really lose the fight because he made 114 zerglings around the time the hatchery was destroyed and they nibbled the stalkers to pieces.

He traded his entire army to kill the sentries and colossi, then made 114 cracklings while morphing 10 broods.

Turns out stalker/immo doesn't do so good against that.

Oh,sad I missed that,sounds cool haha.

For a moment there I thought Stephano had lost when he had banked 4k minerals and 2k gas while being stuck on roach ling + corrupters, but he made the perfect remax after taking out those colossi and the macro hatch solved his larvae problem. Flawless play.


Perfect remax is 144 lings? im pretty sure just any remax of antyhing but drones or corruptors would have won him that, calling it perfect is kinda silly considering it was just 144 lings cz he could make anything else


No it is actually really smart, he focus down everything in MC army that is well equipped to kill zerglings and then remax on zerglings. There was still plenty of immortals and stalkers left after that fight, had he remaxed on roach it would have been way less cost effective.


Yeah, had he maxed on roaches he had a decent shot at losing that game. 20 stalkers + 4 immortals crush roaches - it's not funny how hard they do it. Plus they require gas -> less broods.

It's not just about stopping MC's army. He had to have enough of an army to make a counter to win that game. That's what he managed to do with lings + broods.



The point is that he had 60+ larva saved up on FOUR HATCH, the max you can have is only 19/hatch. He kept up his injection in the middle of the engagement.

Think about that, he doesn't miss a beat.

I am saying it is not true. I checked his game history on his 3 accounts, atleast 50 games outside of the TSL qualifiers were played this week (might be more because i only could see the last 25 he played on each). He deffenitly didnt practiced a lot, a lot of it were custom games (like spectator mode etc) but he did practiced on 8th till the 11th (as i said atleast 50 games, maybe more but not a whole lot more)

I like how some people genuinely believe that stephano doesn't practice his butt off, like he did in his war3 days.
So... what that make you? Good? You're not good. You just know how to hide, how to lie

He had been stuck on 200/200 for ages and was floating over 5k minerals and 2k gas it was basically bad macro saving him

Seed looked good against Symbol because Symbol went for Roach/Hydra/Corruptor and is nowhere near the level of Stephano or DRG in PvZ. Seed has only otherwise played Violet and Curious (LOL) this season. Not enough to compare him to the likes of MC.

I don't think you can call banking money/larvae when 'stuck on 200/200 for ages' bad macro. What else are you gonna do? :p
