*sighs* This LR thread is going to be unbearable if team world wins. Not to take anything away from the amazing plays Stephano has put forward in the face of great adversity. His play has been stellar and I can't think of a single non korean player who could be pulling his team back into a match this way. I just don't wanna see 'omg we're catching up , the skill gap is closing' if team world wins. This was not the best team Korea could have put forward and team korea killed most of team world in IPL5 already.

Also I feel like life's amazing wins are going to be ignored and that won't be fair either, the players who contributed the most regardless of which team ultimately wins should be praised for their play.

* Is bitter most of team world put up such a poor fight, I hate seeing one player have to carry a team. I blame bumblebee, this is his team league strat j/k

what the fuck just happened

For those of you who weren't paying attention. Stephano was actually ahead after DRG tried to apply pressure with his lings and couple banes, when the supplies were even Stephano had more drones and had a bank built up to spend on infestors and drones. While the cancel on the third was painful he did trade very well with DRG's roaches and was still a little ahead. He didn't fall behind all that badly until he sacrificed those roaches for the 3 infestors that barely got away. Even then, with less workers and roaches, he still had equal upgrades and a better infestor count from taking earlier gas.

In the end he won because during the last major engagement Stephano had 5 roaches killing all the drones at DRG's third and he denied DRG the better concave advantage by fungalling all of his roaches before they split and backed off and let the fungals do the damage, moving in only after they softened up winning him the engagement. DRG did not spot the roaches at the third until it was too late to do anything about it and even if the fight had come out in DRG's favor Stephano would have had time to make more roaches and hold with a much superior economy.

If Stephano wins it all he is going to be so mad to have to split the money xD

Yeah, it should be 80:20 Stephano:Scarlett.

The other players pretty much only rolled over to receive a mounting.

The sad thing is I don't even like Stephano. He's one of the only progamers that I openly DISLIKE...but just this once, and ONLY ONCE, I actually want to see him win.

...Do it.
