Stephano took control of a phoenix to kill another phoenix of incontrol, with Another One Bites the Dust playing

 

[Pandaman]

how is incontrol this bad, wow.

 

[Zzoram]

how is incontrol this bad, wow.

Stephano's screen movement looks like a proper Korean, iNcontroL's looks like any ladder scrub

 

[OrangeYouGlad]

Hmmm?

 

[Zzoram]

LOL

Stephano caught an escaping void prism with neural, and then had it move into some infested terrans and target fired it

 

[Holden]

WHAT A FUCKING SURPRISE.

INCONTROL IS STILL AS BAD AS HE USED TO BE.

cmon guys, we get it.

Your avatar is very appropriate right now.

 

[Zzoram]

Stephano might still lose, DTs did a lot of econ damage

nvm he's mined out and has his probes fighting with his army



wow, during this game stephano went from 7000ish viewers to over 10,000

JYP challenges steph for EG pride

 

[Deadman]

Shits about to get real

 

[Holden]

JYP challenges steph for EG pride

you dont understand.

3 pyon walloff.
pylon/gateway block because steph only had 2 lings after the wall came down.
and steph wins a macro game by massing ultras.

NEW LEVELS OF BAD

Is incontrol playing ladder and being matched with stephano?

 

[Zzoram]

Is incontrol playing ladder and being matched with stephano?

He was, because there is a max MMR now. Blizzard capped MMR because guys like Huk would get so high the ladder wouldn't find any opponents for him. However, since MMR is capped, guys like Stephano get matched with guys like iNcontroL.

 

[Deadman]

I loved that he targetted the cybernetics core the first time he got there, not enough zergs do that.

Ultras need a better parking mechanic. Such as in custom games where a hero unit pushes smaller units away as it moves. Thors somewhat need this too.

Ultras getting charge in HotS will fix that

 

[Holden]

lol doubt that will stay like 75% of the stuff they showed

 

[Zzoram]

JYP is no match for Stephano

 

[(._.)]

Stephano needs to move to Korea and compete in the GSL.

 

[Deadman]

If you go by the TLPD ELO system then jyp is the 2nd best pvz in korea. 64% win rate.

 

[Pandaman]

EG shhould just gg out of mlg, they got nothing to stop steph.

 

[Zzoram]

Stephano needs to move to Korea and compete in the GSL.

He gets invites from GOM for Code S all the time, he won't go because foreign money is easier and he's just in it for the money before he goes to university.

People who play in GSL want to prove themselves to be the best, Stephano just wants to make tuition money.

 

[Zzoram]

How do you view race specific ELO?

The korean ELO became shit when the added those meaningless weekly cups.

 

[Mairu]

gom would probably have to pay him an appearance fee to compete in gsl considering the amount of time one season takes now

 

[Deadman]

hahaha idra spectating, trying to learn from the master

 

[Zzoram]

Actually he's 3rd, behind MC and HerO.

 

[Zzoram]

It would probably be worth it. Stephano is the only foreigner that is strong and consistent enough to potentially get to a GSL finals and majorly boost ticket sales.

If Stephano doesn't win GSL this year, no foreigner ever will. Unfortunately he's just not going to play GSL so we will never know if he could've done it.

"Stephano will be figured out soon, and will become irrelevant"

hohoho

 

[Deadman]

jyp vz elo 2138, hero 2073, mc 2032?

Edit: you are looking at the international one, im looking at korea.

Glad everyone is aboard the Stephano train.

Steph doesn't look that much better than Huk during his peak.

You also might want to tone down the hyperbole a little bit.

 

[Deadman]

Hes probably 2nd best zerg right now, so its not that crazy to say he could win it.

Leenock has fallen off a little since his awesome november, nestea shits his pants in lategame now for some reason.

I strongly disagree. HuK has managed to win tournaments sure, but not in the same way the stephano is winning them. Most tournaments that HuK won, he's had several games where there have been sloppy games, or he's gotten lucky. HuK has always been very inconsistent and kinda cheesy.

Stehpano on the other hand seems to win or place second in every tournament he enters by playing really damn solid at all times. Dude never seems to miss a beat whenever I watch him play. Very different from watching HuK.

I am very eager to see how Leenock performs in his Code S group:

MMA
Leenock
Nada
Squirtle

I predict 2-1 (with a loss to MMA's ridiculous TvZ).

Huk looked amazing in part due to playing Protoss, let's not kid ourselves. He's also a very cheesy player. And Stephano demolished him back when Huk was successful

Stephano is dominating with a weaker, more vulnerable race.

This is what Zergs actually believe.

I agree on HuK being a not completely terrible P and people having trouble with it.

 

[Pandaman]

lol huk was amazing mid 2gate hero era, there's a reason he's dropped off.

Huk won or placed high in tournaments where the competition was much higher than the stephano ones, take the last texas lan for example, it was nothing but an excuse to have polt/steph rematch.

I guess we'll see in a couple of days at mlg, that thing has a lot of killers and much higher competition than the texas lan or ASUS.

 

[Corran Horn]

Cue video of incontrol playing at like mlg with slow apm.

 

[PhoenixDark]

I'm sure he can still beat plenty of zerg with 6 gates, but the metagame left him behind awhile ago. Same with Jinro's Terran play

English reboardcast SPL

KT vs CJ

Seems Game 2 (now) and Game 3 are highly recommended.

TIME FOR FLASH

 

[Deadman]

heh, incontrol has 4x the viewers of the flash game

flash seems pretty good though, is he like the broodwar stephano?
