When koreans prep for GSL they take the players usual known builds and get their practice partner run that build for a lot of games until they find every possible timing they can exploit with what build and with Stephano its just even easier.. 1 style player just makes it so much easier than other GSL players that can pop out multiple styles of play if they get figured out during a game. Which is why people are saying Stephano will get rolled. He plays the same style every game and the koreans are going to rip that style completely apart and what will Stephano be left with? It's why people (including myself) are so sceptical when people say "Stephano best zerg in the world" when he has no business having that title when he hasn't stepped into GSL for a full season to prove it. Different preparation is needed when playing in GSL from a normal foreign tournament. Beating a Code S player means really nothing until you step into their playground and go head to head with them and having a completely fair playing field of each player getting time to set up a plan instead of foreign tournaments where your just punching through wall after wall and being able to win with 1 style. Bye bye Stephano I hope you get a group of death to really see if you belong as a "best player" of any region. Did i miss something or since when is Stephano considered to be a "1 Style Player"? | ||

Was actually surprised Stephano didn't accept the seed (or get a spot) in the last GSL Code S as the finals were taken place at IPL5. Hope Stephano wins it all and calls Code [S]tephano  As far as Stephano's ZvZ, Jaedong's ZvZ seems pretty beastly and is a big fan of Stephano's gameplay so I'm assuming the two will work together in EG-TL's "The Lab." | ||

While a lot of the opponents in the group will study him like no-tomorrow, he might not take it as seriously (although it might change, now EG has a coach). Also, Stephano has been slumping lately. But then again, this is Stephano who is full of surprises. How exactly is Stephano slumping? the past couple of tournaments, he only lost to ZvZ which prevented him winning the tournament. The matchup that he's not really known for, his ZvT and ZvP is up there though. | ||
