Of course, he got lucky with this group, and he needs to improve much further in Korea. He can do it, hopefully he will. this game, and group, was no demonstration of his deserving of a code s On March 04 2013 13:08 Havik_ wrote: I'm glad this is(hopefully) the last time we will ever see this shit in SC2.

Two, he played really, really sloppy throughout his games. Three, he still has issues with scouting, like against MKP or Trust. Against MKP? Even if he scouts the Marauder/Hellion he has no upgrades, no lair, and no third. He HAD to attack there and just hope MKP fucks up, it was a build order win plain and simple. | ||

That was pretty bad. | ||

MKP looked pretty nice, but I think S-class protosses will be a much harder challenge than the ones he faced today | ||

His wall had a gap and let the protoss into his base allowing an almost turn around, it certainly wasn't god awful but it was pretty bad causing a terrible game. | ||

He HAD to attack there and just hope MKP fucks up, it was a build order win plain and simple. But there is the element of chance involved, where Stephano is hoping MKP wouldn't open Marauder/Hellion instead of knowing he would. If Stephano got a proper scout earlier on, he would have not went Roach/Bane all-in and simply played standard. At the Code S level, making blind assumptions isn't a great indication of skill. | ||

He won his place this time, in battle?this game, and group, was no demonstration of his deserving of a code s In Code A there are groups like this one sometimes, and you can get into Code S from such games. Saying Stephano is Code S level doesn't imply he is "high" or even "mid" Code S level, just the basic Code S level. | ||

So useless, just take it as it is. He won two games and is in Code S now, don't try to extrapolate anything from that. What you can say is that MarineKing is still a beast vs Protoss, god damn he's good. | ||

That doesn't make it any less bad. He could have held much better with 1.5k resources of extra lings and some roaches. | ||
