Pretty much this.
So much conclusions drawn from a sinle loss, which was really nothing special.

I don't want to see a TvT final, but Ryung-Taeja could still happen.....SlayerS vs. Ex-SlayerS would be pretty compelling for a match-up I don't really enjoy

It feels like he's not dedicating himself enough to improve. He even stated that he doesn't practice that much during interview a while ago.

I wish people would stop bashing stephano for being overhyped everytime he loses a series or a game. He has proven enough times already that he is really good, so just give him the credit that he deserves. No one can win every single time.


Even Flash lost 30% of his games... People like to think players are unbeatable after winning a tournament.

Please never mention Stephano in the same sentence as Flash again.

That's what hurts the most. Holding off a semi all in with like no losses, earlier saturated third, faster upgrades.... and it takes 27 minutes lol


When Zergs hold off one-base terran all-ins, unless the Terran GGs, it can still take another 15 - 20 minutes as well. Doesn't really matter since Ryung was never really in a scary position in that game.

You don't want to see SC2's last remaining genuinely good matchup...why?

I've noticed that people with high post counts tend to be Stephano-antis.


That's interesting; I honestly haven't looked for a correlation between post count and a player's fanbase (or anti- fanbase).


thats the most ridiculous thing ive ever heard (high poster-count = dont like stephano)

Actually a pretty intriguing concept. I wanna call bullshit on it, but quite frankly it does somewhat seem like that yes.

Thanks for the insight Cloud, I'm inclined to agree. It was a calculated risk that didn't pay off. Happens.

Gogo Stephano! ^_^

Byun/Ryung are clearly the best TvZer atm.


Ryung is the best. Ryung is like byun except he actually spreads his vikings as well.


no actually MMA still the best. You just cant see that yet, but he will be in CODE S next season.


MMA even said himself that he is currently struggling in TvZ. I wouldn't be shocked if his TvP was as good if not better than his TvZ right now.

Feels unreal to even consider such a thing, but maybe...


I know. I feel a little blasphemous for even thinking it but it sadly might be true.

Could be a great thing once he gets his TvZ going again though. MMA at top form with no TvP weakness would be amazing to see. =D
