What an amazing first day. Thx you Blizzard and Dreamhack.

And lol at the balance whiners 340 APM vs 100 and its still incredible close Not that APM actually mean anything just goes to show how hard Stephano worked for his wins

these apms were during game1 when lucifron was camping at the middle with no units... there's no need to spam apms there when we got no units, while stephano was moving every lings on the map

everyone knows that WoL terrans is much more micro than other races

Yep, even Idra was doing really well for a while after joining EG, but now look where he is .

When will people stop posting this shit


its not bullshit its basicly happened to all players that joined EG, but we will see if stephano can keep winning after this tournament.

It has happened to almost every foreign player anywhere. What happened to Ret lately? What about all those other great foreigners consistantly winning tournaments? Nope... there are none. Stephano is the only one competing consistantly against the top Korean players. Naniwa has done quite well in the GSL but not elsewhere. Some Euro players did well in some tournaments but don't beat the top Koreans typically.

Naniwa dropped off after leaving quantic, quantic leavers curse confirmed.


Yeah, you're right. That did happen. Damn it, I think the curse might be real.

I cannot believe stephano played like that after 40 hours of travel, arriving at 8am and only 2 hours of sleep in Sweden. Amazing!

Lucifron is basically millimeters from being one of the best Terrans in the world, but those few millimeters are at times difficult to overcome.

Stephano played well, but I feel that he struggled in this series. Lucifron's multi-tasking, harassment, coupled with spotless macro is starting to challenge his APM. Course, Stephano was playing tired. Hope he ramps up his APM tomorrow, because this style of play from Terran is incredibly taxing to play and to play against.

I also wonder if because Naniwa had received a contract for EG and then subsequently had it rescinded, if he, in some way, was affected by the curse?

Imagine the mule whine if T won 2 games of a series after losing 100 workers in each =p


Yep.

And the thing is, I would like someone to collect and aggregate data on Pro games and find the % that Terran actually wins games when they lost at most 20 workers, 30 workers and so on at 10 worker increments.

I bet you will see that function dip sharply after 30 because of Terran's inability to reproduce workers, while you will see the win rate remain study for Zerg players who can lose hundreds of workers (Even early on or in the mid game) and still win.

What a shame.

Stop whining.. man.. difference races are different. I'd like to see you look at the win rates for all three races when they have less than 15 workers for an extended period of time. Terran and their mules will be top there.

I think that EG should consult a witchdoctor so that all the curse fans will be pleased :D
There are just a bunch of lazy EG players that figured out how to make money whithout having results.
Doesn't mean Stephano has to go that route ..

Let's see if this holds true tomorrow. I want to see VortiX PWN Stephano.

I for one do not want to see the Spanish Armada fall.

Look at all the shit that happened to destiny after leaving quantic, want to know why shuffle, zelniq, darkcell and inka disappeared after leaving quantic? Irrefutable proof that if you ever leave quantic you are commiting esports sudoku.

Stephano is a jeep. He's very verstaile and low maintenance. It won't be a problem for him.

The other guys need better repetitions.

Lol, people still talking about the curse like it's actually a thing...

Hey, how about that Liquid Curse? NonY and TLO used to be so baller back in Beta, guess Liquid Curse made them bad. Zenio? Code S Korean before he got picked up, Liquid curse kicked him out. Jinro? Ro4 Code S, Liquid Curse took its toll, now he's retired.


NonY baller in beta? What the hell are you smoking?

TLO showed creative plays but I don't recall him winning a whole lot either.

The TL roster is just highly recognized names that these guys have known for quite a while.

Zenio has always been meh.

Jinro lost his passion for the game and should have retired a long time ago.


Look if you paint pretty pictures about yourself and keep trying to put shit down people's throats they're going to call you out on it.

EG may be able to buy players but they cannot buy championships.

I could go down the list and justify and rationalize everything we see if you want but that would be well over 5000 words.

Not something I'd like to do. -_-

So, Liquid gets to justify its curse with logic and reason, but EG just has to suck it up?

Obviously Liquid is cursed, don't you see the pattern?

Besides, the signs for the curse are that you win your first big tournament after signing and then fade out(HuK won MLG as EG, Thorzain won Dreamhack).


i don't know if it's serious or not, we are in 2012 and people still think at things like this rofl, humans will never change

look all the foreign team, if you call a "curse" a team who has players who are in a slump, all the teams are cursed

Haha I love the conspirator guy here.


If you're going to learn about a 'curse,' you should at least know about what rumormill started it and all the details; which EG failed to point out in their video.
If you don't like it, you can quit.
