Now if only Stephano -- being elevated in such a way by a BW legend -- really cared about it, haha. Anyways, thanks for translating the interview!Do you seriously think he's going to pick Nestea (for being Zergbong), DongRaeGu (someone who has a 3-33 winrate in the CJ B team ranking leagues), IdrA (CJ B teamer), or Ret (someone who got RO8 Courage as his best result)? | ||

No comprendo. Stephano's Korean BW record is worse than every player you listed. JD just happens to like his plays. | ||

What about Stephano? His record is worse then all of them as he didn't play bw lol. So your point makes absolutely no since whatsoever. | ||

What was Stephano's background before Sc2 ? Warcraft 3 On picking Stephano: There's a theory that foreigners invent new stategies while the koreans perfect them :p | ||

I can't believe people are somehow using that as 'omg foreigners!!!11' or bringing up past BW results??? into this... oh and, JD<3 Jaedong didn't just cite him as a player he is watching the most, he actually said he likes stephano's style and admires it. He even said it is beautiful that he is a foreigner and is so good. -_- | ||
