Congrats to him, I really hope he shows up 100% for the matches tomorrow.
Not sure Hero is top 2 PvZ, honestly.

I'm rarely ever critical of tournaments but results aren't updated in OP? Really?

I'm guessing thats what the warning is for. I dont think this is the first time either. Then again, they must be super busy over there.

At times, over preparation is able to do that to you. HerO wanted this badly, and prepared very hard for it. But this exacerbates the effects of stage nerves, which results in worse play.
Another issue is that he tried to meta-game Stephano's timings and ended up paying for it because Stephano's timings are different than what he prepared for. The first game was a great example - he tried to squeeze in a nexus behind the star gate harass thinking that Stephano is just going to defend and drone up the same way that a lot of other Zergs do. But Stephano counter attacked and he flat out died.
MC is a lot better at not making these sorts of timing errors, but he has his own weaknesses - ie his over confidence, which results in him thinking he is able to take a third on Shakuras with nothing but gateway units. With the map pool being what it is, Protoss had to play solidly and optimally to win. None of the Protoss were able to do that, but we're going to see what a night of preparation is able to do for Alicia.

Hello everybody, congrats to Stephano. Are the games vs MC available to watch somewhere? thx

They also only updated their own brackets once the whole day (http://nasl.tv/p/NASLS3Bracket), which is pretty sad. They're lucky the liquipedia exists and is updated consistently and frequently. Thank you to whoever that was today.

Stephano got that effect on most players tbh.

Interesting results, definitely expected HuK to fail though, he seems on the decline for sure.
Stephano stomps two top Koreans, I browse a bit of the LR and sure enough, Aeroplaneoverthesea has been temp banned. He must be hating himself right now, along with various others :D :D :D
That being said, Alicia will win tomorrow I think!

Stephano doesn't have to play till around 7ish tomorrow so he should be fine. As long as noone tells him bars start serving booze at 11 What's the age requirement for drinking in Canada?(at a bar) Depends on province but 19 in Toronto (18 in Alberta and I believe Quebec as well?) In general 19 though No in general the drinking age is 18. Ontario is the only prov with 19 drinking age. nope. I know Sask is 19, not sure if there are others...
BC and Nova Scotia also 19 and I think Newfoundland as well...

Still, point stands. don't know enough about american drinking culture to dispute the claim per se, but just saying a survey consisting of 1020 adults can either fail to be accurate or aim at being inaccurate. that link has basically nothing to do with science and fact, though it might give direction of what the facts are under certain circumstances. That simply isnt true. impressive, i concede defeat. you must be like the president of your high school debate club or something. Wasnt aware every conversation was de facto a debate to the death as opposed to merely an attempt to convey certain information from one to another; regardless, you were wrong and have accepted it. All is right in the world.
