WHAAAAAAAAAAAT?
I don't think I've ever seen Stephano go Mutas. He did a while back, right before he really got his fame. A friend played him on the ladder several times and he lost to his mutas with base-trade-type strats.
He would almost always go muta on Tal'Darim. Double spire style.

I've seen Muta go ZvP with double spire upgrades before, didn't win but he does well with them.

I like how some people genuinely believe that stephano doesn't practice his butt off, like he did in his war3 days. how was he in wc3?
He started very very late but fastly reached the top but did not have enough time to reach the very top.

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, he kept up his injection in the middle of the engagement. Think about that, he doesn't miss a beat. 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 hahahaha oh Draz. One day Stephano is gonna go mass contaminate, and you're brain will explode from the internal conflict. Maybe but the least he could of done was throw down the roach warren
Agreed. But for you to approve of Stephano's play requires something extraordinary.

Stephano should mass expand now

was stuck on 200/200 and banking resources...what are you saying? I mean you expect him to go use the drone trick to get past 200/200 or not bank resources when he is maxed or you expect him to just trade? Idk how its bad macro.

When he has 300/200 due to spines with mass overseers and possibly using triple evo at the same time ill approve of him

if stephano takes out mc, I really hope he wins the tournament
|
Did he get every single sentry?

Oh dear, losing all those sentries and immortals.

Sentries are such bad game design. They die, game is over, but there's a 10 minute death animation for the Protoss.
