KR ladder is actually useful for training in contrast to other ones  Kinda ironic to say that in the Stephano fan club of all places who has reached a very high level by primarily playing on EU ladder.

Wasn't talking about EU.
But KR is the best anyway.

so he is 58-16 so far...

He is currently rank 1 in master league with the ratio 158-115. Considering Coach Lee had a 91-91 or 99-99 ratio when he lend him account, he has a 59-16 or 67-24 ratio.

So far i've had no opinion regarding the barcode names, but now i dislike them a lot. From a viewer's perspective it ruins the fun a bit. Don't get me wrong, i enjoy Korean ass-whopping as much as the next guy, i just wish they were not such emos or whatever they think they achieve using llllllllllllll instead of their real nicknames.
If my math is correct, he has above 73% winrate. Awesome!

IIIIIIIIIII is usually Kespa players (like 95% of them) and a lot of GOM also.

It helps them keep their strats but it doesn't change the fact that if they had other nickname that people would not be able to connect with certain person it would do the same job. At the moment it destroys fun not only watching the stream but also playing the ladder against all those anonymous guys that you can't even distinguish. ||||||| zerg and ||||||| zerg, you can't tell which is which in contrast to PoKeMoN zerg and Whatever zerg.

Are you going to go to Korea, Nerchio? Or are you still studying?

THats excactly the point. You cant look up the accounts if they are just a random combination of I`s l`s and |`s. I dont think you could keep ur identity secret if you played in an account, regardless if it was named dongraegu or anything else.

does kind of suck from a viewer perspective, they can be worked out from hotkeys and shit anyways if the opponent wanted to

When practicing they use IIIIIIIIIIIIII. When streaming they use their ids. On the up side, it frees them up to use whatever strategy they want to use while laddering and to go all out, because no one's going to know that it's them.

I think it was actually 91-91 starting on the first day he streamed. The account's record is currently 161 - 116, which means Stephano is 70 - 25, which is about a 74% win rate (which is the best win rate of any KR GM, other than someone who only has three games played this season). You have to figure that becuase it was a borrowed account his win rate is slightly inflated (as opposed to if he had started, e.g., with MKP's account), but his win rate today is actually 74% so perhaps it's not!
