FUCK YA ALL STEPHANO HATERS SUCK IT! WHAT NOW WHAT?? WHAT YOU GONNA SAY


First of all, I'd politely ask you to stop typing in all capital letters.

Second, I (along with plenty of other people who aren't fans of Stephano) don't deny that he's a fantastic player (the best foreigner, absolutely), but will still continue to root against him because we dislike his personality.

That's about it. Also: That was an awesome game ^^


I wonder if Stephano fanboys realize they're hurting Stephano's reputation more than helping it when they say stupid shit like that and constantly annoy people by flooding threads with discussion about how he's the best player in the world/best PvZ in the world.

2 base terran vs 0 base zerg and terran loses......hmmmm.....


Please show respect to zerg player. He played incredible. Any other zerg can fail to those drops, pushes, different side of attacks.
If he lets his 4 broodlords out of his control only for 1 sec he was dead. He played near perfect for 10 minutes. And if u pay attention u'll notice he put his all units into 1 control group and antiair units into 2nd group:

group 1: broods, lings, roaches, infestors, ultralisks
group 2: mutalisk, corruptors

I am high masters in eu and still cant micro them properly using 2 control groups. tanks kill festors then broods are gone.. it's real hard job


he.. played incredibly?

he was put into a very dangerous position and did the standard zerg fallback option of "try to max out on bl/infestor/corruptor" and wait to catch the vikings in 1 fungal that will end the game

it happens in 75% of late game TvZ

It's incredibly hard to attack into creep against that army, let alone defend it when it starts to push.

It's not a balance whine, what i just said are facts.

Lol, I just caught the final minute and it already felt intense, now that I'm reading the replies I guess I must have missed a pretty lolworthy comeback.


Stephano was never really in danger imo. The casters hyped it up more than it really was, which to be fair is there job.


Was never in danger? You're joking right? Not only was he in danger, he should not have won that game. Ryung seriously outplayed him hard for like 80% of that game. Killed off all the mining hatcheries while getting up two mining bases of his own. I have no clue what happened(Not gonna dive into the cesspool of IMBA posts) but Stephano should not have won that.

Nonsense. How can you root against such good of a player ? I mean, even if his character is sometimes at fault, you can't root agaisnt raw talent ^^

Of course you can, Ronaldo is goddamn talented yet lots of people root against him. RM is an amazing team yet lots of people root against them. It's normal.

Personally, I root against him because I dislike what his fans do to LR threads, so I'd prefer it if he made quick exits from tournaments. That's a lot crazier.

Pretty amazing people can watch a game like and sit there balance whining and complaining about sloppy play. Why even watch SC2 at that point?

Absolutely epic game. Yes it wasn't perfect from neither Ryung nor Stephano but that made for an excellent game. If every game would be as tense as that and less perfect Starcraft would be a lot bigger.

Make every TvZ be Mutalingbling vs marine tank and then every PvZ like the Oz vs Stephano on Entombed earlier today + speed prism with reavers and we will be on our way to something. !

lol how can people say this was the best game of the year? Both players played horribly sloppy at points, stephano definately moreso than ryung.

Cant stand the balancewhine though.

SC2 is a sloppy game. Everyone complains about slop. Because, we expect everyone to do the perfect thing 100% of the time. It's not going to happen. When 2 great players collide, they are going to tax each other, lose control of units, miss creep spread, lose a couple extra tanks... it's just the game and the delicacy of the units. It's hardly slop.

What an incredibly entertaining series.

ZvT continues to deliver remarkably close games with similarly skilled players despite the near endless balance whining we are still subjected to.

I had called it for Ryung after the poor engagement at the ramp where Stephano lost his entire army and Ryung's remained relatively untouched due to being clustered in the corner. The income, base and army situation at that point was so far in Ryung's favour it looked completely hopeless for Stephano to come back. The next 5-10 minutes of extremely intense gameplay saw Stephano gradually come back into it when practically everybody would have felt the game unwinnable for him.

Thoroughly enjoyable, Stephano was totally on the limit there, that's exactly the kind of thing that makes competitive gaming entertaining.

Where would you like it?

Spectators are more than welcome to dislike a player for their playstyles or their polarizing personalities or behavior. It's what makes the game even more interesting and entertaining: the fact that you can like some players and dislike others.

hope stephano gets raped by hero next round.


So it can't be crazy intense if it has mistakes on either side? lol
