Is it currently a trend to whine about what does or doesn't appear in the news?

Sucks for stephano though I suppose we all saw it coming.

I hope Stephano stays retired. Now that he's decided his purpose in life is to play the most long, boring games possible, he's basically just a troll player who exists to piss people off, kind of like BitByBit way back when. The kind of nonsense turtling he did against ToD in RO32 is just sad. When you are so passive and turtly that *ToD* feels the need to cheese you, something is very wrong.

Though if he comes back and keeps playing this way, I feel like he'll at least force Blizzard to redesign swarm hosts so that they actually have some potential role in entertaining games.

I'd bet that if Stephano was still playing competitively then turtling into swarm hosts would be the new BL infestor. Seems like it wouldn't be quite as faceroll but I think it has more potential to exploit than people think.

well, I'm not really surprised that he lost lol. I was more surprised that he went 2-1 against ToD in their first matches seeing as ToD was up in supply and such in the third game but managed to blow it lol.

I don't think it is explicit one way or another yet.

He described it as a vacation.

Game 2 really went great. Leenock went for an allin, Stephano did a great job in defending it. Made some errors still (lost almost all his lings during a counter attack, against one baneling), but that just proves how good he still is or could be, when he wins vs Leenock even with errors.
But then: Game 1 and 3 were not really "close".
