Stephano and Nerchio played twice in very entertaining series that included an amazing defense of a ling all-in by stephano, and in the swarm hosts game a really crazy comeback that would deserve at least a mention. I completely totally agree. Describing it as "swarm host stalemate" misleads the reader to believe it was a locust vs locust snooze fest, when really the game was quite the opposite! | ||

Isn't Nerchio a part time progamer as well since he's still in school? Anyways, the retirement thing is pretty convenient nowadays: If you play and lose, you can control expectations by claiming that you are retired. But if you win, you can claim that you are winning based on pure talent. | ||

I think he gets a rationalized enjoyment of watching his opponent try to figure out how to wade through waves of disposable units. It's both sick yet understandable, given his disdain of swarm hosts. | ||

If you practice and play as many tournaments as you can youre still a pro. Polt goes to school full time as well. No one says hes a retired player. | ||

This final bo3 could have gone either way, my guess is Nerchio can't stand the fact that even with few practice, stephano is really close to his level. when was nerchio ever classy | ||

Claim he never practices and wins through his sheer genis, but loses because he didn't really bother to practice for the game... | ||
