If well marketed in advance, this "show"*COUGH*grudge*COUGH*match can easily get more peak viewers than some major SC2 tournaments. I hope a clever manager gets into it, so it ends up being well organized with high production value.

It has to be planned for a moment when both are in the same part of the world though. Way too important match to rely on cross-server ping.

He is trying to say that zerg is OP (he is just balance whining, I'm sure he just hasn't yet learned how to play against zerg).
Also: I got your pm, care to explain?

JazzNL: Stephano is a great sc2 player and a great zerg. He and Naniwa will have an awesome showmatch, it should go to eight or nine (out of nine) games but I still think it could go either way and if it was played over and over we would have both players taking about 50%.
TL Mafia. Love it. Play it. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/index.php?show_part=31 I find Kennigit really attractive. If anyone has a picture of him please feel free to PM it to me.

I am almost positive that this is illegal in the US, and a highly-publicized cash match with nerds lining up to take side bets could catch the attention of the local police (in Vegas, they care a LOT about gambling laws, especially in the casino where if they break these laws, they're fucked.)

So yeah, Vegas is probably literally the worst place in the world to hold it.

IMMvp and other high level Koreans can offrace in GM. So no, it isn't anything special.

This would be absolutely insane if this actually happened! Hopefully they can figure out a time to play!

When was the last time M.Stephano beat a top Protoss player? Actually how many games has he played against real top teir players? What is his win % there?

A cursory glance at his win rates seems impressive but a thorough browse offers an unimpressive and locally restricted result. He is top teir in EU/NA in many mid profile tournaments, but his win rates vs. top teir players is not convincing.

LOL Nani's PvZ is pretty sick...not sure how that is even worthy of debate....but Stephano is an animal - would be close but I think Stephano would end up with the series. But damn all the speculation - let's see it!!

He beat White-Ra in showmatch 5-1. You can say he's not top tier, but he's pretty good.
He beat Feast 2-0 at SCAN.

I would love to see this. One could lose something instead of just "not winning" something. Thats adds the next level of pressure.

White Ra is not that special, he just does gimmicky/greedy builds and if he wins and gets away with it, calls it "special tactics".
