This is good, everything here, the back and forth arguments over whether a player is "good" or "really great".

Why? Because it shows that people here care! We are doing exactly what sports fans do, debating whether or not Lebron is overrated, whether or not Aaron Rodgers is the best quarterback, whether or not Cristiano Ronaldo is better than Messi, etc.

It shows passion, and the loyalty that fans show to certain players. This enthusiasm will help propel SC2's growth into 2012.

As for Stephano, he's good, but let's see how he does tonight.


So true:D And btw there is no way in hell Cristiano Ronaldo is better then Messi:D

Most of us Stephano fans frankly dont care anymore we so used to the bashing and hate when Stephano losses and wins. If he dont win 100% of his matches he is a fluke and will get figured out soon.

All I can tell you Stephano is atm in the best shape of his life and win or lose he allrdy improved his play from his very short stay in Korea

Everytime anti fans appear it's due to the fanboys. If you guys didn't fucking hype up players all the time no one would be shitting on anyone and the results would speak for themselves.

Hopefully stephano doesn't turn into an IdrA where whenever he's in a tournament a shitstorm follows along whether its haters or fanboys.

imo stephano is a great players , comparable to the likes of sen , ret and idra. But Stephano being the BEST zerg foreigner ? I'm sorry , that's an exaggeration.


It's allready that way?

I mean.. Look at this -.-

I agree completely with this. After today possibly we will see how much of the hype Stephano has been getting that is justified.

We dont hype anyone all we do is posting results and statistic. However there is alot of trolls on these forum saying all kinds of crazy shit that apparently make alot of posters mad and think its the Stephano´s fanboys.

Not quite really. Trolls and "haters" aren't white knights on duty of maintening world's stability, they just take it as an opportunity to troll and spill their bile with the assurance of having a backup.
Regardless of their true nature, telling people to shut the fuck up about their favorite players and not express how much they wish they perform well, is like giving a win to the trolls and haters that were trying to accomplish that by bashing on those people's heads. Not quite the policy you want to enforce, do you?

Yeah Stephano's so hyped its ridiculous. He's a great player and has posted results. People have strong opinions b/c of 1) the hype 2) he's extremely stylistic. Furthermore b/c he's stylistic a lot of players/fans aren't sure if he's legitimately good or if he's winning b/c other players don't know his style so there's a perception that once you've 'figured him out' you'll be able to beat him. Whether this true or not remains to be seen. There is evidence both ways.

edit: stylistic doesn't mean bad, it could be that everyone starts copying him in the future

You forgot the most important point 3) He's caucasian
