Yeah, true that, MC would still be significantly ahead even without the OSL 3rd place monies that he's just earned today. Hehe ^^ That series JUST happened. Tons of people haven't watched it yet. | ||

Ya I have to agree. Game 6 where in theory should have won with BC-Ghost but loses to a freaking vortex! How often do you see a vortex v terran?! And then that epic game 7 ultra cheese. It was great. | ||

In the GSL you will have an entire team of people dedicated to figuring out how to abuse your style (which stephano is rooted in 100%, he is a stylist player) and how to counter it most effectively. Honestly I would not expect stephano to do well at all in the GSL, he`s simply not the kind of player who will excel in those circumstances. That being said, if all zergs would plan out their attacks like stephano does then i doubt we`d ever see a less than 90% zerg win rate in tournaments. Not that I'm saying Stephano is better, but we basically just watched a finals between Mvp (the guy who is best at planning out long series) vs. Life (the guy who doesn't seem to prepare much in terms of "style"). | ||

And he showed mental toughness by not falling apart in game 6. But lets be honest folks: MVP got greedy in game 6 and lost for it. And MVP got impatient in game 7 and traded an entire mech army for an unused hatch. Life made dumb decisions too, but his dumb decisions in game 7 were a lot less costly than MVPs. | ||

The GSL bias is kinda ridiculous sometimes. haha. Can you be a sc2 fan and not be GSL "biased". You cant compare anything stephano has won to a GSL trophy. | ||

Haven't people been studying Stephano for over a year now? And they still can't stop him? I think he's best Zerg. I can't call Life the best Zerg yet. He won tonight and got 2nd in TSL4, but other than that, he doesn't have many results. Yeah he's always been good, but doesn't have too many results. | ||

Its it doesnt matter if you play bio or mech, while for the terran they are so different playstyles. It looks so bad when Life is throwing away 20-30 lings at a time againt blue flame hellions but his injects are so good that zerg macro allows for that. I must say I like the aggressive style of Life but i wish he would show some more respect to Mvp now that he beat him. Im thinking about Lifes comments in interviews. If Life pulls that arrogant shit in his winner's interview I'm going to be very disappointed | ||

No one is saying he's the next bonjwa. He's still young and he's got a bright future ahead of him. How come you didn't mention the other champions who did go on to do great things? | ||
