Well it isn't. Doesn't stop it from happening though.

Zerg law - "As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Idra, Stephano, or Zerg Balance Whine approaches 1."

I don't get it after such an opening with double banshee and a misposition on 5 queens at the 3rd... How can zerg come back?

After game 1 I guess you spoke too soon? -_-... He did quiet well. He didn't give me much hope in game 1 did he? Hindsight is such a great skill to have isn't it? Judging a player by 1 game is terrible by you, nothing else. I could pick ANY progamer apart judging just by 1 game. It's not like he did anything super impressive. Got the eco lead despite the excellent banshee harass, traded better than his T opponent, teched up to Ultras, switched to BLs to punish the excess marauders. Standard ZvT. So from "how did he qualify" implying that noname Newbie did somehow got lucky in the brackets can now play standard ZvT on decent to pro level? Sorry man, not want to make you look like an idiot, you did that to yourself. I saw games from MKP, MVP, NesTea, Naniwa, IdrA, ret, ThorZaIN and plenty of established pros in which they looked like a complete retard, sometimes your game is off. What matters is the result. Roof didn't do wonders, nothing amazing, plain standard... and exactly that is what is impressive as well. Completely standard game and he won against a good Korean Terran. Not a star, but certainly very good. I'm sorry if he gave me a shitty first impression. And you're implying that I was calling him a no-name newb. I DID watch all of the TSL4 qualis you know.

First time turning on MLg today, it's 9 seconds into Roof vs Rain, 1-1. I say to myself "I bet he's going to bunker rush because that's all he knows how to do"
Sure enough, he does.

nice to see rain going back to his roots ^^
|
The question on everyone's mind: is Stephano hungover?
|
Rain must be sooooo happy with this pool timing.
