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 :/

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.

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...

I cant remember when MC lost a PvP in important match.

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...

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.
