That patchzerg comment is priceless. Best foreigner pro in Starcraft 2 history, hero of the foreigners, says there's a lot of them!

He probably prefers it when zerg is weak. So only high skilled zergs like himself can win games.

He wants zerg to be nerfed so when he quits, nobody will be able to overcome his results and so he will stay the best foreign zerg until the end of time. Evil and Genius plan.


You expressed your logic in a invalid sense. Taking all the variables into consideration he would want zerg to be nerfed to the point where these "patchzergs" wont get chance beat him in zvz, so the probability of this winrate will go up due to lack of zvz but still strong enough for him to beat toss/terran to win ez money.

Real mature, Stephano.

Even if patch-zergs are a thing, the fact the community uses it to trash every decent zerg result is what's awful, even sans infestors (which is the much bigger issue anyway compared to some queen range increase).




your tears are like honey to me.



On a related note :


Absolutely great interview with awesome questions asked and Stephano answering them as DA BOSS!!! I love how honest he is and how he spares nobody! And its time some zerg out there showed some balls and said infestors are imba.

just gotta love the guy

Interview TLDR:

Stephano: Balance Zerg please so the abundance of mediocore-bad Zergs aren't winning games they shouldn't be winning, and so the Zergs that are actually good will still be winning; so that the good players are the ones standing out and getting the credit they deserve.

great interview.

Yes, he did call some players patchzergs, but the only two foreigners he praised (Nerchio and Scarlett) are also both Zerg =.=
