Yeah, that's the case I used as reference. Maybe Stephano simply didn't want to play?!


It makes really little sense. Maybe Stephano thought it's H2H and therefore didn't play? No idea. I just don't see Stephano not wanting to play if there's a chance to advance.

I would guess he just doesn't think he can beat Serral.

With his ZvZ I can see why he said - fuck it, save the time, let us drink and give him the 2-0 he will get otherwise


I mean, chances were low, not gonna argue there. However, he would have played a player who was already guaranteed first place and if there's a weird lucky punch, he could have taken it. Even if all odds were against him, why wouldn't he give it a shot? I don't think that's the case, tbh.

Well we don't know, so unless there's an official statement, let's run the fantasy wild!

Has he done such a thing before? I know he doesn't take the game too seriously, but I always though of him as a guy who wouldn't just give up.

I think of him as a guy who is okay with getting wasted 20 minutes earlier and skipping 2 games.

No, that's hardly surprising to be honest. And there's beer easily available here.

First and last. Weird though, last HSC Zest was only good vs Terran and Protoss, now he's only good against Zerg and Protoss?

Zest has always been keen to help those youngster in their career.
Imagine where Tangtang would be now if everyone was as nice as Zest

He bopped MaNa and SortOf. Seems a bit odd he would get bopped by Clem and TaeJa.
