One day, when he's working a normal job and at least 40 hours a week, he'll look back at his time as a progamer and probably regret the fact he didn't maximize his earnings by taking it a bit more seriously than he does at present. He of course has amazing results given that he's basically not practicing at all, but he could have even more. For the past four months or so he's more or less given up on playing regularly. (For example, I don't see any activity on his EU account the past couple days.) Stephano's young and tremendously talented, but if you have trouble buckling down and practicing a video game 2 or 3 hours a day, you probably need to evaluate what you hope to acheive in life because there is nothing else he can do that will give him so much return for such little effort. | ||

I really think it'd be a great thing for him to read your post | ||

Perhaps he does not feel he needs to over commit because... well... it's a game. What he is saying is that he is NOT building a carreer, he is simply earning money doing something he's good at. I'm pretty sure if he starts being less good he'll start practicing a bit more. Without having to act all professional and stuff he earned more than 200k being who he is, if you were him, would you want to change anything to the way you are given that already amazing success? Now as a fan, I do find it frustrating to see that sometimes he doesn't take events seriously. | ||

He can be? He already is and it has been a long time lol... | ||

He get two koreans and Roro, who may be the worst for him... How come there are two koreans and Stephano in the same group? Were the groups done randomly? | ||

If so, not a bad group for Stephano really, I would favour him over IdrA even tho im a fan of both, and his record vs HerO is pretty good as far as im aware, just RoRo who may cause trouble The thing is that it will be very hard to be first in this group and the second is very likely to meet Rain in the ro16. If i'm correct there are no loser brackets. | ||
