No opterown, you have to hope for DRG to be bad so FXO can win vs MVP tomorrow! :p

In all seriousness, sucks to see DRG to be this down. He looks like he plays without confidence, hope he regains it. Think it's too late now though :/

You guys should really not hope for a PvP final, it is going to be horrible. Remember Genius vs NaNiwa this season? Worst Code S series of this Season by far.


Even if its a weak finals, having another Protoss champ will be gratifying for fans of the race.
But let's hope we get lucky and Seed and MC put on a great show as well

Exactly.
It's been too long since a Protoss champion. Time for some.

Even if that means the finals aren't so good.


Can't we just have Seed beating the shit out of DRG


Leave nothing to chance. Last season was supposed to be the Protoss breakthrough, but then MVP ruined it with his brilliance. If we go from Seed in the finals and MC up 2-0 to DRG somehow holding the trophy I think it'd kill some of the Protoss on here

OMFG

First he actually has to dominate with 80%+ winrate for 2+ years... in Korea. So what does he need. Well he needs better winrate... He needs it IN KOREA... and he needs, oh that's right 2 years... Meaning 0% Bonjwa. Jeez such a comment is stupid.

No

You are not the best because you beat the best. A no-name who beasts flash isn't the best. Browns are not the best because they beat Giants and Denmark is not the best soccer team in the world because they beat Spain. Determining who is the best is all about consistency. Stephano has proven he is currently the best Z outside Korea imo. Nothing more than that.


Maybe you can say Stephano is the best (or among the best) when it comes to tournaments and matches where you can't prepare your opponent one week in advance...

Still, he's not proven what he's made of when competing against an opponent who studied his style for one week...

(The Blizzcup wasn't enough, though he performed well despite his 3 place finish).

Well DRG's now 0-4 on ohana, he really hates this map i guess...

He has a 78% win-rate on Antiga so we should see a much better game now...
MC and MKP fighting ^^

So, really. Stephano best ZvP atm ?

You can't be best anything in SC2 without playing the GSL.


I say bullshit.

There is a lot of big tournaments in the world ATM and this is a beauty of SC2. Who says you need to win GSL to be relevant? Stephano is the best proof of this.

It is actually really uncomfortable for foreigners to start in GSL, add to this cultural and language barriers and I would say there is nothing wrong for them to stay in Europe and play in local tournaments.

For me GSL is just another good, big tournament next to MLG and Dreamhack - and results from these two are for me as important as for GSL.

Can't we just have Seed beating the shit out of DRG

Can't take the risk man

everytime a toss makes it to the finals who isn't MC.

Protoss are left shattered around the world..


If the finals is Seed vs DRG and DRG wins that will make all 3 seasons so far this year with a Protoss making it to the finals only to lose.

Exactly,
my heart can't take much more of it.

I must have racial equality!

Stephano has only won one premier tournament this year, he's only getting all this hype because it was the most recent one.

Let's not forget he also only had to play his best match up in PvZ to win the tournament.

By that logic DRG is also excluded from being the best Zerg because he is quite inconsistent in the GSL (losing 1-4 in his group last season and probably going 0-3 or 1-3 to MC this season).

Also by that logic NesTea is the best Zerg because he is easily the most consistent, same with Mvp for Terran and MC for Protoss.

Although I would agree with those at top 3, you cannot judge a player based on wins alone, you have to look at what they do when they win, who they beat, and what they do to stay at the top.

I'm still slightly irked they didn't seem to finish the montage. It just seemed like they described the pause and him slumping again, show a quote of his during the slump, and then it just...ends...

I don't know what is wrong with you people, MC is easily the best Protoss and this is the RO4....did you guys honestly expect him to go down 0-3 to DRG just like that?

reminds me of last season when people were saying MVP doesnt stand a chance to make it past RO8

lol

Losing to two foreingers just before you play the best zerg in the world is not really giving anyone an optimism. Its not like he throwed out the games there(10k and 30k for 1st places), he looked totally clueless vs foreigners in bo5 and bo7. So tell me what gave you this foresight? BECAUSE ITS GSL ok, i get it.
