I dont think that you should generalize that so much. For example violet was on the backfoot when he left korea, but now he's again a strong force in any tournament.

The word you're looking for is lose. Lose and loose mean two different things. I have the same feeling watching Stephano, and it's nice.

Ya, someone asked Stephano how you beat Thorzain, he responded "BR".
Which is standard key set for make roaches.

Studies

I love to watch Stephano play! But i don't like his attitude towards the game, i can't belive that he would give up all of his fanbase and money to study at this stage. I would really like to see atleast 5 more years of Stephano.

You can't compare international results to Korean results. Just because Violet wasn't performing well in Korea doesn't mean he doesn't have the skill to beat top foreigners. Lots of players have done very well in international events while failing in the GSL, simply because the GSL talent pool is so much deeper than any international tournament.
You can't say that Violet has done better since he's left Korea.

Education is very important. Esport to risky atm. I agree with this decision even though ill be very sad when he stops.

I agree, but the thing is that Stephano is SICK good at this game, arguably the best foreigner -at least to me- at the moment, if he was a player that earned less money from progaming I would totally understand his decision, but he's the best, and he's still very young, 1 more year wouldn't really hurt his studies, considering his age (I've been to med school as a French student myself, you see people much older than him in the first year), so yeah it's kinda sad to see him wanting to leave so early, he could dominate the foreign scene for 1 more year in my opinion (which is a good source of income without any long term risk regarding his studies)

Whatever his decision, he truly is the best foreigner zerg there is, and arguably best foreigner player in SC2. Still I think it's good that he's using the money he's earned for to be put into School and not just gonna live the life as a pro gamer, only a select few can really do that (Boxer due to his legendary status). I just think it's good that he is thinking long term enough knowing that if he does manage to hit a slump one day, he could just pack it up and resume his goal in further his education and a career outside of gaming.
