What's the deal with everyone bringing their girlfriends over all of the sudden? Grubby's, now wife, has followed him to every tournament before they even started dating. Why copy him after all these years? I cringed a little when HasuObs kissed his gf on B stream.

Why does Hasu kissing his GF make you cringe? Why would it be weird for someone to bring some one important to them like a GF to a tournament? Especially one like HSC where it's very relaxed and fun?

Because he was sitting on 'caster desk' if you can call it that on B stream for good half an hour. I don't have anything against him, in fact he was one of my favourite non-korean undead players in early TFT days, but if I wanted to watch couples kissing, I wouldn't be watching SC2 tournaments online.

Watch stream one maybe?

Stephano is a true revolutionist! He was the first one to do "Stephano style " ZvT of ling infestor Ultra. Now that everyone copies him, he comes up with roach hydra ZvT. Really abusing the metagame in ways that no one else can.

Roach hydra ZvT existed a long time ago.

Man, MMA really doesn't seem like MMA anymore.

I don't think it's nerfs + buffs either, I think the whole SlayerS drama must've really taken it out of him.

Roach Hydra was used in beta already, he did not invent it at all.

I agree, XLord was pretty BM and after Stephano said he would give the win instead of immediately thanking him XLord kept on arguing.

I just dont get why ppl hate xlord, there are even hate threads on reddit. Xlord defended his point, admins were not agreeing 100%, offered compromise and stuff. In the end Stephano himself gave him the win, not the admins. So stop saying the situation was xlords fault, when it wasnt even the end of the admins decision.
god damn I hate this community so much


Why do you post when you hate the community so much?

Also, people have every reason to hate on XLord for what just happened.
This should have been a regame.
The players said that another option was to give him a 2-0 in a BO5, meaning Stephano would have had to win 3 games in a row to win the match.
XLorD's reaction was to say "No way, I got Infestors here I can do this and that, this is a freewin 100%". Everybody can say that afterwards.
He kept on talking like that for a little until Stephano decided this was BS and gave him freewin, feeling pressured to make a decision, since the admis failed to do so.

Obviously it was not all his fault and he is the devil of eSport.
Still, he behaved like a spoiled child and got really agressive, talking fast and loud. That is not even close to professional beavior. Especially on Homestory Cup people should not be dicks...


What qualifies you to tell us how Stephano felt when he made the decision? I am pretty sure both already talked it out and will get along just fine. Same as the supposed "Cloud/TLO grudge match". Yeah they casted together and got along just fine. This is what happens quite often in life, people collide a bit and then work it out,compromise. Time to move on
