No, because we're all massive dullards who struggle to say anything meaningful or funny in the LR threads at least.  | ||

Anyone who has watched his games from IPL should agree on Stephano now being the best non-korean player. He really is that good. | ||

Much more impressive than anything before seen from a foreigner. Anyone who has watched his games from IPL should agree on Stephano now being the best non-korean player. He really is that good. I don't know about that. Idra played very well and only lost to TheSTC when he did some very aggressive cheese/semi-all in that Idra didn't scout. Seemed like the terrans Stephano played mostly macro games with him, or Stephano did some early roach-ling attacks. I would assume because they know Idra's style and this was their first time seeing Stephano (to my knowledge) they weren't as prepared for him to be as good as he was, or to hit some of the early roach-ling attacks that he did. And obviously not all the other top European players were there. Dimaga, Nerchio, Sjow, Naniwa, Sase, etc, etc. Of course I've heard some of these players swear by Stephano but still. That being said I do think Stephano has the most natural skill, but I don't know if he is the clear cut best. He definitely looked like it this weekend, but we'll see if he can get another major tourny result before crowning him  | ||

kiwikaki - he's not the best even by NA standards violet- someone who WAS in code S now sucks i hate the fact they keep calling him code S player inori - took out 2 great players who i think wouldve beat stephanio in pvp thestc - the guy who already said hes bad at tvz lucky- the guy who cheesed his way through terrans and played a horrible zvz not to take aanything away but if he faced unknown players who were bad at zerg match up if he played ryung/MMA/mc/puma then hes proven something until then i think i proved he had it easy | ||

Recently and recently, he finished his military service in May. At least that's what he said in this interview: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=227417 I don't think we can count TheStC as one of the strongest korean terrans though, even if he showed a lot of potential back in the beta. | ||

Well, the question was: "What is the best race?"...and Stephano answered that every player thinks that his own race is the best, that's why you play them... He never said, that Protoss is the strongest or anything like that... | ||

First times I watched him play I just thought it looked sloppy and stuff but after seeing more of him some strengths seem more obvious. Like rarely making mistakes that end up making him lose the game, good game sense, good at reading opponents and finding their weaknesses. And sometimes it's like he knows of critical weaknesses in others builds that the opponents don't even seem to be aware of themselves etc. It's not as mysterious as it often is with for example Sjow at least. | ||

Stephano has the potential to be the best zerg, but as of now it is still Nestea...by pretty far too Since when is TheSTC considered bad by any standards? He's been at code A level since the beta. | ||

I can't tell. Anyway, we all know there are more comments and Milkis only translates the interesting ones. He probably refrains from posting in English any of the Korean troll comments. Also, for those wondering about TheStC, he was a mediocre BW pro a few years back but did plenty of SC2 playing and online tournaments while he was in the military. Obviously he doesn't get to practice 10 hours per day but some players just don't need to. | ||
