Stephano used to be the best Millenium player, but now he cannot beat Millenium's ForGG because of EG curse!!!

I woke up just to see 3 base Stephano vs a 5 base ForGG. I'm sure ForGG played really well. All I hope is that Stephano was well practiced and ready to play, despite what he said :p

didn't see game 1, but game 2 stephano makes 9 roachs while Forgg techs to cloak banshee/make hellions with no units. Stephano takes out like 22 workers so forgg has ten left with like 7 hellions and a banshee. Stephano does a kinda block with 2 evos and a spine/roachs to block hellions then just drones to die without making spores once the banshees get cloak. Game 3 same build forgg does some hellion damage, but no spores again from the cloak banshees so stephano playing from behind again.

stephano did not play up to his caliber at all =/

Beginning of Huk's EG career he actually won an MLG, and didn't Puma and Thorzain win something just when they started out in EG as well? I think the curse is real but lagging behind a bit, since now it seem to have caught up with Stephano as well. Jinx.

HerO and Taeja fighting!

hmmm, I quite like HerO, oddly enough now that he isn't so ridiculously hyped, so I guess him.


Good man!

Stephano's losses were caused solely by hellion/banshee economy damage so to call that being outplayed is just not a very intelligent assessment. It's a momentary loss of workers, not any sort of fundamental difference of skill. ForGG played well but not godlike...I mean game 2 he just threw some hellions and banshees at Stephano who didn't have anything to defend it. It was Stephano losing more than ForGG winning.


ForGG outexpanded Stephano, kept being aggressive, used his advantages really well. He outplayed Stephano.


...He outexpanded and stayed aggressive because he was ahead from early econ damage. Surely you're intelligent enough to recognize that those are things Terran does when they've killed a bunch of drones. It's how a Terran maintains his lead, Stephano could do nothing about it after the hellion banshee damage.



uhhh. he got outplayed.

doing the damange in the first place takes skill and to maintain what forgg did is not easy.

forgg outplayed stephano hardcore in game 3. If what forgg is so easy, why don't you do it to stephano?

No.


Agree - versus HerO I think that is highly unlikely.


yeah, the way hero dismantles zergs on KR ladder when he streams - i dont think this targa kid stands any chance

I'd bet £100 huk would have fallen off with liquid, he still tries to force the same things he did one year ago it doesn't work curse or not.

"EG curse, you fucking stupid?"

Oh the irony. I would love to see Incontrols face right now.


seriously? he made it top 8, if he got dropped in the group stage, then start talking

Oh no not top 8, what a terrible result oh no please anything but top 8 such a terrible result oh man going out to an excellent player like forGG how horrible no one should do that clearly.

honestly forgg didn't play that great it was just stephano throwing more. kills player economy > drones > mass hellions/cloak banshees kill him. Same strat he knows or should know cloak banshees/mass hellions are coming > spores/lair late > plays from behind whole game.

ForGG is still a good player I have no clue why it's a bad thing to lose to him.



You missed my point entirely. People saying "curse" after going out in top 8 are morons. I said nothing about losing to ForGG


I'm not going to say it, but I believe a lot of people had Stephano finishing a lot higher than top 8.

Just saying man.

Players do have a tendency to get complacent in EG. Anyway, it's only one tournament and I'll stick to what I said earlier.

Stephano is a different breed of player who doesn't need the same maintenance as a lot of the other guys so he'll still do very well.

Nothing wrong with top 8.

I personally had him finishing in top 4. Only one round off the mark.

Most good progamers got 3 months of brilliance, excellent ones got half year, legend got 1 year or more of brilliance. I guess this is Stephano's moment to step down.
