First player to qualify for GSL as 2 races

Gumiho qualified with all 3 races...at the same time. But it was Code A I think.

haha true it might have actually been one of the open seasons. I dont think GPig ever qualified as random when he played random but I know he at least qualified once as protoss and maybe as terran. I think Gumiho is still the only random player ever

Yeah, I just checked. It was Open Season 3.

use your 4000 gas....... Then maybe you would have an army

Time that Taeja doesn't have.

he had plenty of time when losira was building up his own expensive army.
And Taeja's air army would have beaten zerg even without a blunder by Losira.


He definitely, def., def. didnt have enough time to get out Raven/BC, jesus with air ups and the raven ups that shit takes forever...

Well it's all how you play the other part of the game. Seems like Taeja likes getting early gasses right? He also likes killing creep tumors right? Well instead of using a ton a scans to clear them, use mules to get more minerals and use your gas to get a raven! Not like he doesn't have starport with tech lab. He even made banshees early on. Just get a raven, and then you can get a second raven, and a third. And since they take so long, they won't really eat into any of your resources, except your huge gas bank. That's how you do it early enough


are you serious?
You know that upgrades/tanks/medivacs require gas and that you only have 6 gas as T in mid game. And you know what happen to a T who pushes on creep? btw Taeja did so well on that side that he didn't even scan.
I hop, sincerely hope it's a troll...

Well I don't know what you consider a troll. I am theory crafting, but that's just because I can't pull something like that off myself. You did see that Taeja had 4000 gas at the end of the game right? And even from midgame on he had at least 500 at all times


OK i'll just do a brief summary of what Taeja did:
A quick 3rd CC with hellion/banshee and double ebay aiming at a pre-hive 200/200 with 2/2 timing
In order to push you need to clean the creep, so you might scan. You just cannot push on creep. Ever.

Then you try to max out asap, and you dedicate ALL your infrastructure to build your army asap, so you get 1port with a reactor, 2fac and 6/7raxes. That's the best set up atm, and if you aim to these kind of pushes you cannot afford something else. If Taeja floated some gas it was under 500.

In order to get your sky terran going you need 2/3k gas to begin with and throw down 5/6 ports. The problem here is that Taeja failed his pre-hive push and had to build vikings asap to survive to the blord push. There was no timing to get the infrastructure needed because he had to produce vikings from those starports.

Then Losira switched and since T's production is slow you can't really say, hey, i'm switching into sky terran now, wait 5minutes mate.
Zest fanboy.

I've definitely heard people say Stephano is significantly better than DRG on more than one occasion.

and exactly for how long have you been hearing voices in your head?


Lol there was plenty of talk about it when MC 3-0'd DRG. People were employing the bullshit transitive property (Stephano > MC, MC > DRG, therefore Stephano > DRG) to try to justify themselves.


Since drg also lost against Hero recently, I think you can argue that stephano is the better player in zvp at least.

It take as much time for a Raven to get enough energy to use a HSM than for a Mothership to use a Vortex.
And that's WITH energy upgrade.

TaeJa didn't have the techlab starport, nor the air upgrades.. It take forever to make this transition sadly.

Game was close tho, TaeJa could have won by playing a bit better.

This is simply not true. Taeja did have techlab starport, he was making banshees early game!

Somebody doesn't play Terran. It takes freakin forever to build ravens, even more time for HSM. How would you like to have 20 supply tied up in units that require so much freaking time to become effective for ONE shot.

It's true I don't play terran, but you can't say that having a raven would have been detrimental to him while clearing creep. I was pointing out a way to start using gas

Once again, having supply tied up in early/mid game cost-ineffective units is not exactly a good for your theory-crafting

So you're saying that you would rather spend 300 minerals (6 marines) on a scan every minute rather than pay 100/200 once? I think your way is less cost effective

I'm sure it happens that someone says that DRG is bad. Just as it has happened in this thread tonight multiple times that it has been said that stephano is overrated, that his opponents are playing terrible when he's winning etc etc. Isn't it a bit hypocritical to blame stephanos fans for overdoing his accomplishments when this argument pretty much boils down to wanting people to 'realize' just how much better DRG is than Stephano?

I find the bias towards Stephano by both TL and casters/organizations to be extremely annoying and depressing.

I wait for the day he drops off.


So we can't have emotions, ok

Personally I find the caster bias ridiculous, annoying, and game-ruining. Fanboys are extremely annoying too and they tend to wreck LR threads, which is why I always root for whoever plays vs Stephano.

Emotions are fine I go crazy myself when MC wins, but this whole "Stephano moves a ling -> best player in the world" "Stephano would rip off DRG's limbs in a single move" and stuff is just overboard and annoying.

Can't do anything about it though, too bad

Yes, yes, when you do it, it's great, when other people do it, it's the worst. Maybe just get over yourself.


I agree. I can't understand these people who complain about "bias". I imagine that every time Stephano does something well, they cringe or something like that. It's a game and a cast, just take it for what it is.


Haters cannot stand players getting praised. It adds to their bitterness. They want a haters commentary where players get constantly bashed every time they do something.

no we didn't like Moletrap either, I just don't want super biased casting, that's all
