You forgot even Effort failed to qualify, and he was supposed to be the best of the former BW pros at SC2 :x
It's alright though, overall Zergs are pretty solid.

Stephano has just the best decision making and battle engagment of the scene

And then he got stomped by Cytoplasm. His ZvZ is suspect at best.

If DRG wins any map it SHOULD be this one.

Now IdrA is out of the picture you can't read a discussion in any LR thread without it circlejerking to Stephano -_-. Its the new Idra rule...
It's pretty justified...
He didn't win a major tournament until October 2011 and he's 7th in the charts for SC2 prize money overall and 3rd for prize money in 2012.

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.
Lol, so pathetic Korean fanboism right there. Some foreigner Zergs are really good - Stephano and Nerchio are easily GSL material, and their level of skill is comparable to Code S Zergs, end of story.

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. Lol comparing MLG and DH to Code S in terms of difficulty is laughable.
First of learn to read with comprehension. It is not about similiarities of tournaments but about their relevance. You cant compare MLG and Dreamhack with GSL head to head, because these are 2,3 day tournaments and GSL is a months long league.
Personally I prefer 2,3 days format - there is much more emphasis on flexibility of the players and overall skill.
Believe me, even worst progamer can become good at certain match-up after weeks long preparation.

ok drg now win 3 times and make this whole discussion pointless, we got unecceserily agitated
embir i actually defended your point of view, but ok. I used the term foreigner to put it into more highlight.

Lol, ppl with the same shit over and over. Stephano mastered his play against FFE.. if the protoss stays on 2 bases, he techs up to bl infestor roach lings.. if the protoss takes fast third, he unleashes the endless waves of roaches.. he is the only one who goes for the army instead of counter like every other zerg does because he knows how to pick fights (better decision making and army control than most of the zergs) .. he only goes for counter if the P goes for air.. he tried infestors and hydras against stargate without major succes, countering with roaches and lings works for him so he does it!.. yes he is one of the best in PvZ but I wouldn't say his ZvZ and ZvT are at the same lvl..
lol what are u talking about... he techs to BL/infestor against TWO base Protoss?
lmfao

Symbol went on tilt, Seed completely earned that win
Nestea totally failed that series, and he is one of my favorite players
Jaedong... makes me sad we won't see DONG VS DONG

Doesn't look good for DRG.. MC's execution is usually flawless.

That was weird. I thought Antiga favored Zerg in the late game since they can take the whole map while Protoss is stuck on 3 bases. Hard to take a 4th, too easy to punish Games usually don't go past P or T needing more than 3 bases
If P loses just a bit of their army defending the 3rd, Zerg can expand freely. The center is so open so any Protoss attack would be very weak since you need a lot more forcefields.

oh god please don't win with a ramp block. This is my least favorite build in the game

The PvP finals.
I feel it approaching.

Tasteless was on real talk? *makes note to watch that* In my opinion it was the best Real Talk of yet. Was never a big fan of tasteless either.
Kewl. Imo Idra has been the best. Close followed by Grubster... haven't seen Tasteless yet tho

Soulkey was definitely #1 in hype from what I remember, but Mvp called him out for being a noob in his last interview lol
"i dont know why WS sends out a novice for ace matches. I beat him in zvz" hahaha

So why aren't we seeing people emerge who have spent 3x "weeks long preparation", dominating all 3 matchups -_-
MC scouting again with a probe, he really wants to figure out what DRG--
OH SHIT FOUR ZEALOTS, WARP PRISM, PROXY PYLON THERE AND MC IS 2BASE ALL-INNING!! BOOM
