That was weird. It was like neither player really knew what to do in that situation. Entertaining though!


Most players probably don't have much experience with HoTS late game.

I just saw the playoffs bracket for the #HotS tournament at #IEM. It's #cruel.

It seemed like Stephano was still figuring out the game today.

Why didn't Idra tell him how to play HotS?

Yeah, Stephano tried so hard doing nothing for minuts and allowing his opponent to tech Battlecruisers with 2/2 bio vs 5/3 Ultralisks. From this the only logical conclusion is that Terran is imbalanced.

HOTS fungal is just too weak so bio can just kite ultras to death.

I hate to say this, but watching Zv anything is really painful right now. It just feels like the other two races were given such a boost to their early game (Mothership Core, widow mines, reaper buff) that Zerg is constantly playing from a deficit.

Also, the medivac speed boost is kind of ridiculous considering how much faster it is than every other unit in the game, and since fungal isn't instant anymore I don't know how you lock one down.

I really hope the final release balances some of these issues.

It would have been kind of crazy had Stephano won this. So bad macro at the midgame stage banking near 3000 minerals at 100 supply, then waiting at maxed supply for ages, then throwing away 10 ultras for nothing.

I didn't say it was imbalanced, i actually enjoyed these HotS games much more than last year's WoL...

Not to take anything away from Stephano, but I think Dream played really well this series. Made me a fan.
