Honestly, not to flame, but if anybody thinks that Stephano is the best player in the world then you obviously don't even know what you're watching for when you're making that determination. Not only does he not have the results to prove it, but in my opinion from watching his games it seems like he's miles behind a lot of other top players in terms of multitasking, drone/aggression timings, and decision-making. I'm not even going to list examples of people better than him and why because the list would be like 70 players long. | ||

You can't lose against Haypro, or leenock and being the best. I didn't follow Brood War. But you can't seriously tell me that Flash, in his prime, never lost to an inferior opponent? A player doesn't have to be super dominant to be the best. He just needs to be better than everyone else. Also the fact that you would use Leenock as an example of a bad player proves you have no idea what you're talking about. | ||
