A realy realy realy bad translation, correct me if somethings are stupid, i'm sure that many sentence are far to be "good english".

EDIT 1 : First update, Thx to 7mk !

M : Hi Stephano, Day-4 before IEM for your first participation in this tournament. Is it something special for you, or just an offline event like any other?

S : Hi Spit ! It's not that special for me it's a LAN like any other, except there are a few more koreans.

M : You didn't know their playing level very well, but you were able to taste it during Assembly summer 2011, you even beat Sen, do you think they are the favorites?

S : Not really. I think that the reason that korean players are not as good in foreign events as they are in their own country comes from the fact that they don't know anything about their foreign opponents. If they don't make any effort to watch just a few replays of their opponent, they are just common players. So it's up to them (Agathon's note: ...to be favorite)

M : Your group seems to be one of the hardest, Sase, Mana, Puma (who won NASL) will be your opponents, what do you expect?

S : I barely understood how to play against Mana and SaSe, after several losses during tournaments, we learn more when we lose. For Puma, I'll use my traveling time to Cologne for studying how he plays, but my ZvT is very good at the moment, so...I have faith !

M : After the group stage, who do you want do play, and who you dont?

S : As usual, i would like to avoid any Millenium player, and i would like to play against the best players, to see how good I really am, I didn't have enough opportunities so far, it's time.

M : This new tournament could give you the opportunity to really make a name for yourself in the intertanional scene, do you think about it, or not?

S : Atm, i dont have any objective, except be the best possible, we will see in time if i'm in the adequate shape to perform.

M : You participate in bigger and bigger competitions, you can see a very different organisation considering what you see in french events. What do you think about this difference (Agathon's note : For non french, french events can't start without laggy connexions, at least 5 hours late, noisy place, cold place to play...and no babes...).

S : As i saw in Assembly, the biggest preoccupation is for spectators, and not players. During the competition, there is planning to respect, strict rules and you have to care about rules...In France, organisation is generally more "hippy". It's different.

M : Can you give us a top 3 for IEM?

S : No sorry.

M : Last word? To your fans, Bjoran (Agathon's note : Millenium Boss !) and to sheep?

S : I thank you all, but i ask to my fan to be a bit more hysteric, to Bjoran a bit less "speed" and to sheep not to change : Be silly = be Happy

Dont really get the last part, about sheep and all but oh well ^^
Also the part about Sen kinda makes it sound like Sen was a korean (he's taiwanese)
