I've always been a fan of Stephano, but what exactly does Stephano go on "vacation" to get away from? Practicing two or three hours a day every third day and traveling to a weekend LAN every few weeks? Aside from attending LANs it's hard to imagine you need a break from such a "rigorous" schedule and that, even if he wasn't technically on vacation, he could fit in visits to family or whatever else he wanted to do during his normal work day. Perhaps he really is burned out, although I'm not sure why -- he's had a lot of success, everyone celebrates his skills and he seems to have fun whenever he attends tournaments. I can't imagine whatever he does following SC2 will be more fun than his time in SC2 since he'll likely be paid significantly less (unless he becomes a doctor) and have to work far more than he currently does. Perhaps he's a very private individual and doesn't like all of the attention he gets in SC2 although it certainly wouldn't seem that way to me. the rumors about the little practice of stephano are mostly exaggerated and not true.

Yuo probably know a lot more about those rumors than the people who have been with him and affirmed his "lack" of practise...

he already said that he will retire, and honestly, i prefer that he retires instead of stay as a "competitve player" and put a lot of bad result like a ton of players

Stephano on a bad day is still in the 1% club of elite sc2 pros, so even if he "retires" and only goes to dreamhacks or basically whatever is convenient for the kid It's his exit strategy.

The coronation was at WCS EU 2012, the whloe tournament with demotivated^10 play, at this point I was not happy anymore that he play another year. I cant watch demotivated games from Stephano, it is heartbreaking.
If he suddenly decide to play another one year, then come with impassionate play/games like he did from Aug2011-July2012. Otherwise, no, like you said.

Satisfied with his performance cause they drank a little before the showmatch. Thank the crowd for coming to see his last match in France before he retires. Crowd sang "ce n'est qu'un au revoir". As he began to thank french people for following his career and such, dailymotion crashed.
