I'm enjoying the dynamic here between people making excuses for Stephano, people pretending to make excuses for Stephano, and people taking the second group seriously.

The hellions were visible for <2 seconds, IF you kept staring at his base.
When it comes to stuff like th<at, I think it would be more correct to assume that a player didn't even notice it. Did he have lings at the tower? Maybe he only saw then..

he started up spines instantly @ his natural after his overlord saw them pass

MKP has better macro than bomber.


Hahaha. Best comment ever.

Also I have better decision Making than MVP.


Implying MKP's macro is bad?

They're actually very close, bomber just has better macro crisis management.


Implying MKPs macro is leagues away from bombers macro. MKP is korean standard. Nothing more. He goes for greedy ass builds, yes. But his macro is nothing to write home about. Bomber on the other hand has always 20 more marines than he should have. Simply by force of will.

Yes, please do tell me how this was innovation outplaying stephano with excellent play. Tell me how this wasn't Innovation rolling the dice to see if Stephano would do something to counter that.


Maybe stephano should have scouted better and not play so incredibly greedy without knowing what innovation was doing. How is that not rolling the dice by stephano?


well, to be fair. The position where Innovation put his Factories is unscoutable for Zerg before Overseers. A OL cannot make it there... (I'm regularily hiding 2-3 extra CCs there )


yes, overlord scouting is impossible on cloud, need to prepare otherwise if you want to be safe against that build


1. Stephano didn't even try to scout. Innovation had only helions, so overlord could get a full scout no problem
2. Zerg has a great overlord position on that map, spotting all outgoing attacks. Stephano could have put down a roach warren when he saw that and get roaches in time. Drone BBQ started after Innovation finally brought down spines and queens with helions, which takes enough time for roaches.

Zergs are simply too accustomed to being bullet proof against any terran timing, Stephano was simply caught with his pants down and it is entirely his fault.

Somehow, I don't think Stephano really cares about SC2 anymore. He's just collecting easy wins until the robots storm the scene, then he'll run off and play poker or something...

Anyone got the build order of innovation vs stephano in game 2? Was it 3 fact or 2 fact?
Regarding the imbalance, hilarious to see Zergs defending themselves....

im not the only one that thinks that stephano is genuinely nervous about this? he's normally so unphased by things but let's be realistic, he knows that GSL isn't a tournament that play's to his strengths, he knows the community are going to judge him incredibly heavily on his performance and as a result, he knows the significance of these games are pretty much the biggest of his career...
so cut the guy some slack, any zerg in the world can literally drop a series in Code S 0-2 but i guarantee they won't face the judgement stephano would :/


ok game 1 he got outplayed, game 2 he got hit by unscouted cheese, this happens literally to every player, DRG got raped by Flash's tank only build, Taeja got owned by Rain's storm drops, Rain got raped by leenock's cheese etc etc. world's best players get "bopped" like this every week, but since it's the best foreigner now, the thread is full of retardation, it's kind of expected

Well that's just not true. They're not super far apart but MKP doesn't have better macro than bomber.

l funny how people judge macro over vod without really understanding what macro is.
Almost all koreans terrans have the same macro anyways.


100% untrue, most korean terrans even some in code S have awful macro compared to bomber


not really........all code S level terrans have good macro, bomber is slightly better than most but mkp isnt that far behind in terms of macro

why do all zergs go for ultras nowadays :'( but good drop play by Bogus


BLs don't work well on this map.


Yeah it's why I don't get why terrans hate whirlwind. bl/corr/infestor is bad on that map xD


Because the map is so big that the zerg can be really greedy early and get 3 base saturation quick. And they can either to a big ling/bling/muta bust (you need to be defensive as terran) OR they can take a quick fourth and just outmacro you. Taking a fourth is really hard as terran if the zerg has his macro going early. It wasn't an issue in that game because Bogus got away with a greedy build.

Things like drops are very 'snowball-y'. If first drop is successful, it leads to the 2nd drop having a higher chance of success (opponent has to rebuild drones). That is why Stephano was in trouble all game. He needed to keep remaking buildings/drones that he never had enough army to devote a separate force for defense. Because if he did, his main army is a risky from a big push. It is the same for muta v P. If the first 7-8 mutas do damage, the P is stuck remaking probes and less stalkers and the muta ball just grows.

For terran the danger is that zerg can take 3 bases far easier than normal, and the danger period is defending a potentiel 3base bane/ling/muta bust, after that it turns into the terrans favor, as securing a 4th is actually really easy, its the fifth that can be tricky to get.

Now, this map is more zerg favored if it's close spawn positions, as that way the zerg can always expand away from you, while on cross spawns he will also expand towards you, and it's easier to drop because it's closer for you, but still as far for the zerg.

And also, you can't really go brood lords, and if you do you will force a base-trade scenario unless you're very far ahead, because the terran can just run around the zerg.
