Holy crap. I fell asleep watching this last night, but I wish I could've seen that comeback from Stephano live! Awesome. :D
Oh, the usual. I bowl. Drive around. The occasional acid flashback.

I really enjoyed this event and hope they make it into a huge thing. Also, only GSL champs and runner-ups should be eligible?

With the way GSL points work, it is pretty much the 4 champs + a runner up. There are situations where you have 3 champs and 2 players with 2 runners up. Or someone with 2 Ro4s instead of runner ups but those cases are rare.

I had a good night of sleep.

I was ABOUT TO sleep when stephano started playing. This was the most amazing thing i've seen in a while, I really believed the all-kill was within his reach ( who beats Seed, has to beat squirtle ). Also, World AllStars could've taken the win. Naniwa could've played a huge role in the second round considering he could've been the safety net for scarlett sniping Life, Vortix just isn't as good as nani. Also, In the first round, Nani could've taken the win after that good push but I feel he let life recover way too much. ( Also nerchio and carriers lol. )

It's about time Stephano gets his ass to Korea and tries the GSL! So surprised by the results
This is where we begin. Show your true self, Battosai.

Holy shit !

Completely missed Stephano near all-kill (was like way too late to watch).... And what happened exactly to Naniwa ? I heard he had his gear stolen or something... ? Who would do that.... ?

Btw, looked way closer than I thought it'd be.

Highlight of this : Scarlett bringing the manner hatches after Seed's manner nexuses. SHOW'EM !

stephano did not beat squirtle because he has not won any GSL.
Stephano likes to beat only GSL champs

I just got home, missed this event live.

But 4 zergs + terran for world feels much less exciting 3 zergs + terran/protoss

hope games are still good!

Also because he used hydralisks. I wonder why he decided to go that route, I'm thinking it's partly due to his success at using hydra's in ZvT somewhat recently. Relatively passive games that allow you to creep spread half the map plus allows your hydras to retreat, but he didn't spread creep to his fourth so he was stuck taking a hidden expansion. If he sent his hydras there then they would have been too far away from his main/natural to defend if squirtle attacked.

Yet if he went infestors I think he would have won. Been able to take a a defensible fourth and they wouldn't have insta died to the colossi. Just sad how Hydra's are so bad.

People are looking into this a little too much. To the players, this was more so a showmatch than anything. If you really think the Koreans played to their full potential/effort they would be more devastated or have a serious manner when they lose. Not downplaying anyone here, but 1 small tournament doesnt mean anything.
I think for Stephano's sake, he should keep doing what he's doing and win foreign tournaments than dedicated months on 1 GSL. He's after $$$ only after all, which is fair.

Watched until the Seed game, then went to sleep. I was really disappointed when Korea started with Life... I mean, he was clearly the ace of the line-up. While Stephano's run did kind of save the day, I can't help but feel it would have been more interesting overall if there was some back and forth that could have been generated in the other matchups. Nerchio and perhaps Scarlett could have certainly had interesting games against any of team Korea's Ps, rather than playing a bunch of bo1 ZvZs. Also, Life did a pretty troll build against Stephano, but at least that helped it not being an all-kill (not saying Stephano couldn't have won anyway, just that it was a lot easier than it could have been).

Uhm, with "Troll Build" you mean the strategy that worked in Code S?
