Both players went proxy DT rush and killed the enemy's nexus. Both then built a forge and some cannons, as neither had enough to build a new nexus, and just kinda sat until the KeSPA ref paused and called for a regame. Hero was poking at Dear's pylon with stalkers, but didn't manage to kill it.

Stephano has awful zvz, JD has awful vt and vP. Revival has the best chances at 3 killing.

I think you dont watch a lot of JD's game. You don't beat MC in a Bo5 (or was it a Bo7 ?) with an awful ZvP. His ZvT is also pretty solid.

EGTL coach has officially lost the plot sending out Revival as ace over Stephano. To recap:

Stephano: a million tournament wins, the most successful foreigner of all time, code S
Revival: no significant tournament successes, code B
Stephano: ZvP best matchup
Revival: 1-2 in ZvP
Stephano: 1-0 in ace matches, confident and composed in high stakes finals
Revival: 0-1 in ace matches and admitted he gets nerves as EGTL's ace player.

damn hilarious, no vods for spl either to watch this after right

Korean VODs are free on youtube I think. I've been posting the English vods in the OP as they are put up but they require a subscription as far as I know. first 3 games are posted

I always thought thats why he covers his face when he laughs

i think it's more of a Korean thing (when you act the Korean type of shy person)
other Koreans do it a lot too

ThorZaiN isn't getting sent out this all-kill round either and he's a regular chatty Kathy.

I don't understand this 'hiding strats' card that is always pulled

If Stephano is going to use roach/hydra in the GSL, use ling/infestor or muta/ling/baneling here

He played ling/infestor for months and months, he'd never forget

Because his code s means so much about his skill level, considering hes never played a code s / a gsl game yet, and was gifted the seed...

Oh man, that gif is actually heart breaking. Zenio doesn't seem happy at all lately. I think losing so much is really getting to him. His record in SPL is pretty atrocious...

I'm not really surprised stephano isn't playing, if they wanted him to play it would have made much more sense playing him instead of hero (which they should have done ffs).

Well, to be fair:

Stephano: Has not actually played a Code S match yet (first is on Feb. 1st)
Stephano: Extremely weak in ZvZ, so vulnerable to a sniper
Stephano: Only practiced PL maps for a short time compared to the rest of EG-TL

Stephano might have been the better choice to kick out Dear but Revival has the better chance to actually win 3 games.

Sorry guys, I sent Hwanni 5 Gazillion E-Sports dollars to let Dear win if he was played in order to help my salvage my embarrassing FPL.

Aww frack. I forgot I have Revival on my team as well. I'VE BEEN DUPED!
