So all the quarterfinals turned out to be foreigner vs. korean series.Of the four quarterfinals Stephano vs. ForGG was probably the one from which most people expected a foreigner to advance.And in the first two quarterfinals there weren't really any surprises as they were both won by the korean.So it was all up to Stephano, but in the end his series against ForGG ended up being rather strange.Stephano took the first set on Ohana in dominating fashion and at that point it looked like he would have no problems defeating ForGG.The second set was on Metropolis.Stephano went for a quick roach attack with around 7-8 roaches at the 7 minute mark and he managed to catch ForGG completely by surprise.ForGG had gone for reactor'd helions and was building a banshee and when he finally took out Stephano last roach he only had about half the supply of Stephano.Stephano also had 3 times as many workers as ForGG and the game should have probably been over at this point if Stephano just had played safe.Stephano did not really play safe though and it actually looked like Stephano was just so certain that he had won the game that he had forgotten all about his usual perfect gamesense.And when ForGG attacked with cloaked banshees and hellions Stephano defended miserably.In the end it was almost surreal to watch how the hellions and banshees just kept killing more and more drones until in the end Stephano had nothing left and was forced to GG a game that he had actually already won 4 minutes earlier.The third and deciding set wasn't quite as surreal but still weird in the sense that it never felt like Stephano was playing his usual confident play.ForGG once again went for some hellion and cloaked banshee harass and although it didn't do devastating damage, it still felt like Stephano defended a bit carelessly.Especially when ForGG attacked at Stephano's third around the 11 minute mark with both hellions and banshees. He took out far too many units and it did not look like a Stephano defense at all.The game transitioned into a somewhat normal macro game after this, but it was always with Stephano playing from behind.ForGG got the map control he wanted to get far ahead in bases and production.For a while Stephano defended really well around the map with ultralisks and infestors and managed to win a lot of engagements.But ForGG had the economy to constantly remax and eventually he got a good siege up at the ramp to Stephano's natural and when Stephano tried to break this he lost almost all he had left.Shortly afterwards he was forced to GG and with that Stephano was out of the tournament.So Stephano lost a series that he had practically had in his bag and whether you believe in EG curses or simply being punished for celebrating before the fat lady sings it was a pretty depressing series to watch. At least if you're a Stephano fan.But you gotta hand it to ForGG. In that second game he just kept playing the game as if he didn't know he was behind and in the third game he actually really played well.Luckily for those people cheering for foreigners Targa managed to take a surprising win against Hero in the last quarterfinal. Hero won the first set but Targa showed some really cool nerve for a relatively new guy on the scene and pulled off an impressive comeback.
