It was a one point with Stephano imo.


Ehhh.

then he went to Korea and lost to a marine all-in from Bogus. Great day it was.

it was hellions, no? bunch of 2fac hellion allins, that sick game on whirlwind. Oh and a 2rax? 4-1, with stephano taking akilon and INnoVation giving up on 200/200 because Stephano reached BL/Infestor?

wasn't there a game on Whirlwind where Bogus rallied like 4rax marine from 2 bases 2 pixels above Stephano's overlord sight and Stephano just died?

Stephano was very good but he was never in the tier of the best koreans.
To all the haters: you deserve to witness many, many more Serral victories, worthy of the godlike player he is.

Ehhh.


It was.


That was because the game hadn't matured yet. The later Naniwa/Scarlett/Snute accomplishments are more impressive than Mr 200/200 Roach into BL/Infestor (which isn't to say that Stephano was totally terrible)


That's not counterargument. Besides, the game matured with stephano. He was both at korean skill level and innovated the game at the same time.


Nah, not at all


Hope I'm not talking to a Stephano anti-fan here


Not really, no. I hate Stephano fans, not Stephano

start a PL type offline tournament in germany and france?

Honestly a Proleague type thing with foreign teams might not be such a bad idea.

With players living in United States, Russia, France, Mexico, etc I don't see how it's doable.

Honestly, if they really want to become as good as the Koreans, they'll have to be ready to make concessions and live together. And then have one teamleague in EU and one in NA and finish it at the global finals.


at the moment I feel that France and Germany have the best players (in EU) and also the most amount of devoted foreign SC2 fans. NA infrastructure/interest is so meh. Especially with guys like ForGG living there a true offline league would be really great. You could easily have TL which have the resources participate as well. An offline PL that could alternate between cologne and paris would be so sick. but maybe just pipe dreams for now.
