Stephano isn't better than Life

Life is the better player overall and I don't think anyone would deny that. However, Stephano won that game in a pretty legit manner with clutch defense to parry Life's aggressive play. Life was never ahead economically and gambled on nydus play to bring him back into the game.

Kas is undoubtedly the best Terran foreigner.

Thorzain and Lucifron are both better than Kas.

Tasteless has gotten so funny recently, he is ofttimes so clueless and disoriented.

I always have to laugh when he refers to any Terran who builds Hellions and Thors as "doing the Carn build", naming the build used by the guy who won 1 Bo3 during a GSL qualifier (Code B) in 2010.


Tasteless has virtually 5 sentences which he repeats every cast. Seriously he makes anything he "casts" unbearable for me...


I love tasteless but as far as buying time goes, he's probably one of the worst. it always ends with him asking the same question 5 times in a row because he doesn't know what else to do.

Stephano isn't better than Life
But that doesn't mean Life is going to win a hundred percent of the time. At best, if Life and Stephano play, Life has maybe a seventy percent chance of winning and Stephano a thirty percent chance. In reality, I'd bet it's closer to 60-40.

This time was one of the forty percent. BECAUSE STEPHANO OUTPLAYED LIFE.


Not all people get that concept. Life beating Nerchio, Vortix and Scarlett is also way under 50%.

no1 said that. Do u even read the conversation or do u just want to hate on stephano or on stephano fanboys?

Life still didnt throw the game for fun, nydus is quite common on metropolis in ZvZ lategame, stephano just held it well and won...
he played better in that game, or not even that - he made the right decisions than life.


to all saying that the nydus was a throw by life should fucking go and watch life vs sniper in iptl semis and stfu because they got no damn clue about zvz on that map

Go ahead and name any foreigner that is better than Nerchio/Luficfron/Vortix...

Kas should've definitely been in there instead of Lucifron

Well, Life lost.


Yes, clearly this means Stephano can't lose in ZvZ.

>.>

Stephano beat a player who was ahead (albeit slightly) the entire game until he spammed Nydus everywhere. I'm not trying to demean his accomplishment, but to say DRG can't beat Stephano because Stephano won a Bo1 vs Life is really, truly stupid.


He was never ahead, he went for the kill with his roach push which Stephano defended, then used his standard nydus play...which Stephano defended superbly.

Stop trying to downplay his achievment.


He was ahead a few drones and a few units the entire game. I also straight up said I wasn't trying to demean his accomplishment. What Life did is something that he probably would do in a Bo5. It doesn't mean Stephano is better than Life though or even better than DRG.

All that matters is that Life tried to use 1 of many strategies, and Stephano blocked it.

You either go nydus or hive on Metropolis late game, both can work.
