I think that's just shit tbh. He can't barely practice and still perform so well.


Nerf Stephano? Force him to play with one hand? The kid is just born for RTS.

No question he's good at SC2, but how does that take away from the fact that it is complete utter bullshit when people say he barely practice?

So all that remains now is the endless discussion.... Sporrer vs Elise?

NASL busted out the playmate card. Its just up to MLG/IPL to top that now.


Pfft. Playmates got nothing on Smix.


lol.. don't be delusional. Smix just happens to be a pretty cute girl but without much of a body. The only reason she's drooled over is because she's a girl in esports!

It`s hard to look strong when your opponent has so amazing macro, micro and(!) decisions.
Stephano made almost no mistake the whole series, he was saving infestors, drones, roaches all the time. The way he takes engagements are second to none (foreigner).

Stephano's success/failure in GSL would be totally dependent on the other players figuring out a counter to his playstyle. He's not going to change his style up as that would be foolish.


This tournament showed a completly new ZvP style for him. He was very ling focused and even mixed in Mutas. Thats the thing with Stephano he is an innavator look at the ZVT match up all players now play his style! Stephano is a natural talent he can kill you with everything and if it doesnt work he will come up with something that can

Who gives a fuck about handing over the cheque? We all know he's getting it, i don't give a shit about seeing that. How can you possibly enjoy that trash?

The only thing I agree with is that they should have let Alicia sneak out because it would have been damn awkward for him lol.

I don't think GSL really suites Stephano's style . . . he doesn't catch me as the kind of guy who studies his opponents, or wants to wait around for days and weeks to play each match. He just wants to roll through to the end and cash in. Can't say I blame him, and I'm definitely a big fan because of it.


He plays his style and doesn't worry too much on other people's style. He's been analyzed and studied a lot but yet he still is a dominant player. I think he can do well, just that there's so many people at his skill level in GSL. He's definitely one of the best players in the world.

He's a dominant player who only just got his first big tournament. I think he's an awesome player, but don't think he'll magically get to korea and win the GSL. The competition there is far and above anything Stephano has won so far.

why are they dacing? i dont mind, but i just dont understand it? and then everyone is hugging everyone, never saw something like that in any other sport before^^

This is cracking me up because it's exactly how I felt.

I enjoyed watching the ceremony, but it was kinda odd. I can't really believe they planned it like "Well, and when the final match is over, EVERYBODY ENTERS THE STAGE AND DANCES".

I don't say it was bad, though.

I have sort of mixed feelings on this "closing ceremony"... first of all, this was definitely an American type of victory celebration - this is what you see in baseball when the world series or even when playoff games are won, the team celebrates after the game in the locker room by spraying champagne on each other, some players may even start dancing around with each other, etc. All perfectly normal in that scenario. But here, it was just one guy who won, and basically the casters all come out, spray champagne on the winner, and then start dancing with him? Imagine if say, this happened when a major Tennis match is won? Do the Tennis TV annoucers come down, spray champagne on the champion, and then start dancing with him?

I think it was all a good idea, we all got a good laugh out of it, but was a bit too "raw". Any feeling of "professional production" that was left went out the window. The winner certainly enjoyed the celebration though, I guess that's an important part of it all (even Alicia would have had a good time I think!), but I think this was more than a bit over the top.
