If Stephano actually participates in the next Code S season, Life is probably going to pick him in the Ro32 considering his beastly ZvZ... There shouldn't be any Zerg player happy to face Life right now.

Anyway, hope to see him in Code S and do well against all odds!

It would be a shame if he has to miss ESWC. He has a very good chance to win $20,000 there!

Maybe he could fly back for it, after all some Koreans will also be doing that.

it's amazing news that he is going to korea, regarding ESWC I'm pretty confident that since he din't announce it's cancellation there is probably a gap that will allow him to fly back to do it, we will have to wait and see

I'm pretty glad that he goes to Korea. I'm even ok if he forfeits some tournament. I don't want him to win the most money, I actually don't care about easy tournaments for him like the GD invitational, I want him to show his best level and Korea is certainly a way to improve towards it. It is true that he trains way more in Korea, that forces him to play more regularly and I'm sure he gains from it.

we're trying to understand stephano, he used to focus solely on getting the maximum amount of money for the minimum trouble, so when he cancels two tourney for apparently nothing, it raises interrogations


i say he just want to get in touch with the korean ladder before entering the gsl, it would be pretty sad to lose because you're just not used to the different playstyle

i guess if i had the time, i would enter the qualification thought code A instead of just jumping in to code S to my death

I really wanna see Stephano in Code S, that's like the only thing I watch. The level of play there is just amazing and I know Stephano would fit with them =)

That was what I was thinking as well. He's pretty much guaranteed to be picked by Life. Stephano is always capable of a surprise victory but Life's zvz is on another level, so Stephano will be a pretty big underdog, especially if he prepares poorly, or not at all.

As an aside, I'm happy he's going to Korea since he hardly practices at all if he's not in Korea. He's also playing in very few tournaments so there's virtually no way to watch him play any more, which sucks. I would have thought (and I had hoped that) EG, since it's paying Stephano an amazing salary, would require Stephano to be out there playing in as many tournaments as possible and streaming as much as possible. If he's not streaming and he's apparently playing only playing in big events, does anyone know how EG makes any money from Stephano? I suppose they simply tell their sponsors they have the most popular SC2 player on their roster but I just don't see how that translates into value for sponsors if he doesn't stream or play in tournaments.
To be is to be the value of a bound variable.

You know considering the personnality of Life, he could even take Taeja if that was possible. I think there is a possibility he takes another player out of the newcomers (he can choose among up and down and seeds if I'm not wrong) and seeing how he handled the best terrans he met recently, I wouldn't be surprise to see him pick one next season.

He also says he'll be streaming a bunch too. I feel kind of torn on that considering he'll be (sort of) using it for GSL practice. On one hand I absolutely love his stream, but on the other I know every Code S Korean will be tuning in to try and find any holes they can exploit in his play. I genuinely hope that his stream isn't a factor in getting knocked out in the ro32.

Maybe there will be no VODs again. But I'm really excited about him streaming more.

Somehow this didn't come as a suprise, the only thing that the starcraft community wants right now is blood.

Yeah. I wonder if it is good approach. It hurts EG the same as Stephano. At least from my point of view. If he will actually train in Korea in meantime and stream a lot.. good for him, good for me, sucks for EG.

that's a good point - maybe that's the reason for Korea after all.

They still run a business. Their sponsors are all to them, so saying stupid things like that is really unprofessional and unnecessary.

IMO good move, despite the lack of Stephano domination in some tournaments. (How many are there in October anyway, that he would miss?)

e. oh apparently Dreamhack and such. Damn.
