Which is really just a depressing commentary on the viewers
People like the players more than the game itself.

yep koreans have a stephano complex this is well-known No "complex," Stephano just does none of the stupid foreigner shit that every single foreigner besides him does. He actually scouts his opponent, always. He pressures while macroing. While macroing! He doesn't impatiently all-in. Basically, Stephano is a Korean. Anyway that's how I feel watching him play vs. foreigners, they are a class apart. Watching Patraeus beating him yesterday was sort of like watching him beat Life or somebody? You knew Stephano was going to find a way because he is playing the game on a different level, one most foreigners seem unable to reach.
We are blessed by the presence of his ZvZ strategies! He's the perfect human!

What's wrong with being fan of a certain player and just follow his matches?

That was against Protoss and terran where his standard was pretty much safe vs anything. ZvZ was different, and his worst match up.

I suppose these are the games I like watching:
Mvp vs TOP g1
MMA vs Gumiho
Gumiho vs Losira
Ryung vs DRG
Ryung vs Flash
Ryung vs Polt
Polt vs DRG
Life vs Leenock
Gumiho vs Creator
Supernova vs TY

I have seen SH games from other players I loved, and SH Stephano games that sucked (like yesterday vs Pet). If you don't like game 2 then you don't really like the game.
The view count actually dramatically increased during game two, believe it or not.

I think it's neat gameheart feature, although it could use a little bit cleaning up.

When Stephano was able to get up a third Hatchery before 6 minutes he was able to stand toe-to-toe with any Korean Terran or Protoss. In ZvZ it is much more difficult to establish that third so he struggled more in the match-up.

This is just horrible to watch.
But I actually think it's a good thing Stephano is doing this in front of so many viewers and Blizzards eyes just to show just how horribly broken the design of zerg and the concept of free units is in a RTS. wait till we get a game where the zerg has a massive advantage, and then terran or protoss just turtles. LOL. What are you talking about? Protoss turtles all the time and terrans do from time to time as well. Neither P or T has any free units so P or T turtling will NEVER drag on for hours and hours. Such a stalemate situation can only happen with free units. Or do you actually believe that if Z has massive advantage against P and then the P players turtles as much as he can, the game will drag on for hours? Jeez. These zerg fanboys. ugh..its a stalemate in the zerg can only atk the protoss effectively with SH while the P cant move out either or they just turtled to where they could. Why doesn't the Z just end it? He is trying to, but is trading very cost efficient because he is vsing like tempest templar archon void rays with a bunch of cannons and shit. The zerg has a hard time breaking it, and cant really so they are forced to go SH. Sure. I can agree on that turtling on 3 base is just too good in SC2 but it is still possible to break a turtling P or T player whereas SH turtling is impossible to break once you reach that critical mass of SH and static defense. To be honest, P or T turtling is not even remote to swarm host turtling. Did you even watch the game last night? When did you ever see P or T turtle play make a game drag on for 2-3 hours? I can answer that for you: Never.
yea it is possible to break them after using fucking swarm hosts/vipers to slowly wittle the fucking protoss down. What would happen if SH get nerfed and P goes skytoss? The zerg now has like no answer for it or to just trade super cost inefficient while he has a great economy.
I am saying it would also be more popular where you could play the game, and if you start to get pretty behind then you go skytoss while turtling so zerg cant really end so you get back in the game.
yes i watched the game where pet turtled in main while endless locust hit each other at the ramp. I do think stephano could have ended it with a muta switch at the end since he killed most of the spores or go BLs maybe. The thing is that could work or he could lose.

TB said on Unfiltered that that feature helped with getting sponsors though.
