Stephano going Ultras, last time he went Ultras against SuperNoVa meching on the same map, and he actually won.

Foreigner hype/bias obviously.


Not sure what you guys are watching, but these games have been really well played on both sides. I don't think it's a bad thing that people appreciate good play rather it comes from foreigners or Koreans.

LucifroN is playing great (and is clearly a much better player than he has been given credit/attention for ...), but I still feel like most of his success in these games is simply knowing that Stephano doesn't make Mutalisks, and punishing him for that style of play.

(Not saying it makes him any less good, just seems to be an observation).

Um Im protoss but it's a known fact that antiga is the most terran favoured map ever(in TvZ as well).Not that Im trying to take away Lucifrons win but I wouldn't say that antiga didn't help him.

TvZ is my favorite MU. Games like this illustrate exactly why

lair tech games > hive tech games far and away, it's as simple as that.


ahm? stephano is the biggest hive rusher in the the whole Starcraft scene? Ultralisk cavern kind of requires hive...

yes?my point is that those games are not as good as what we had before with muta ling/bling.


those games are amazing. And you know, muta/ling/bling vs marine/tank/medivac did not fade out because of some patch or something. It faded out because Terrans started to play 3CC builds with maxed pushes, which simply started crushing 2base mutalisk play --> zergs started to play upgrade builds.

This is actually a common misconception. Go check out the actual win rates for antigua.

To be fair a 50% map is terran favored compared to some other GSL maps.

Still better than the Korean bias the first one carries.

I dunno what it is but watching Stephano play just feels like watching someone on a different understanding level than just about every other non-korean Zerg.

I mean I look at this and think "yeah, someone like Idra just doesn't play like this".
Can't put my finger down on what exactly it is but yeh.

Hope Luci builds a single raven for mobile detection.

Stephano made great use of burrow so far in this series.

Yes, because Stephano is at the same level as a code B korean.

And LucifroN isn't even as good as Rainbow or Anypro.
