Strange play from Nestea, in a decisive map... See phoenixes+mass blink stalkers ? make mutas. See collossus ? mass zerglings. Then die miserably.

Nestea win nothing from like 6 months (ok there is the blizzcon run), but Stephano does ? Stephano smash every protoss except MC, and Nestea lose to a not-so-good Genius by taking stupids decisions ?
Actually i had no reason to believe Nestea is really world-top-class Z.
And for Stephano, we need to see more of him vs Koreans, but since he don't want to stay in Korea...

You have no reason to believe that. No reason? Stephano has been beasting it up hardcore lately, and Nestea not so much... Problem is Stephano doesn't compete with koreans often so it s hard to know precisely at what level he is compared to them. I look forward to the Iron Squid to see that. If he wins Iron Squid, it will be one more proof that he is one of the best (if not the best) zerg players in the world There's no way you can be the best without competing in Korean scene. He got raped pretty hard in Blizzard cup last time.
no he didn't

I hate to be in this fanboys/haters war but 2-2 with chance of making first of his group is not pretty hard rape.

I was so sure NesTea would win this season.
It all goes back to NesTea's horrible decision at the end of Game 3 vs DRG. Wow. i think it goes back to Nestea's 6 pool follow up. and why would u 6 pool on a map thats pretty good for macro zerg? Just refering to Squirtle v Seal game 1, zerg can beat toss in late late game.
I think he 6 pooled on that map because its a really good map for protoss. Hard for zerg to take fast 3rd cuz of rocks, and its very easy for tos to wall off and hold his own 3rd. Kind of a desperate choice but i guess he didnt see himself having any chance of winning on that map otherwise.

Also, I think people need to adjust to this new format, 'dropping' to code a isn't a big deal. Since you just have to win 1 set or up and downs. I don't think we should view it as dropping to code a until they lose in up and downs.

You still have no reason to believe he's better than Nestea.
A Stephano fanboi making ridiculous claims? SHOCKING...

Also, he didn't beat any good koreans at IPl for example 
LOL? He beat MMA in the finals of the qualifier... Also, he reached top 20 on korean GM so easily... It's really a shame that he doesn't want to compete in GSL (hard to blame him, though) because I'm quite confident he would perform very well
