But I might be biased since I've always thought people were going crazy over Stephano far too much. Foreigner bonus I guess. | ||

I don't even know brood infestor is really strong comp. Im just glad I have the archon toilet as long as it hits I can even out the score. | ||

Yeah we get it, you don't like stephano, or the casters raving about him. Noted. | ||

There's a shitload of hype for Symbol and Violet. Leenock hasn't really performed in 2012 considering his #2 Providence and GSL November results. There's a lot of good Zerg's at the moment and Stephano will always get hype as long as he's the best foreigner. | ||

There's a reason his Korean winrate in vZ is sub 50% while his others are both over 65% (this all being somewhat inflated by playing mostly in weeklies) On June 17 2012 06:30 StarVe wrote: Does every tournament LR thread Stephano plays in have to devolve in a debate which exact player he is better or worse than? Whenever a player has obnoxious fans they have obnoxious haters too heh. | ||

It is the strongest tournament in the world, but many of the GSL players come to foreign events as well, where Stephano consistently brings results. GSL is a lot about preparation, so I actually think foreign tournaments are maybe a better indicator of pure skill. Before I get flamed for that, I still think, that DRG and Symbol are better players atm. and that DRG and Nestea are more succesful players overall (than Stephano). But in the end, GSL is just a tournament, although it is the strongest in the world. GSL is also the tournament where almost every meta-changing strat gets unveiled. It depends on what you want to define "skill" as, but GSL is definitely the proving ground for every top player. | ||

Symbol made Iron Squid and MLG Spring Arena Final. | ||

Ultra + fungal on most of Puma's MMM army. Stephano was behind in supply but this good fight anyway, don't ask me why. | ||
