Naniwa did it for his game vs Tarson in Battlenet EU Invitational. Polish stream was switched with english one to play for the audience. I can bet than more of 60% of the crowd would be unable to understand the commentary if it was in english... it's an event in France, a lot of French (especially gamers) suck at english, French is the official language in France and the majority of the crowd is French, there is no reason to not cast in french. France is not sweden, we suck at english. Well why whould they have a thing called world championship in a place were they dont know the most common language in "lé" world. But tbh, if anyone could hear them they most likely whould've complain. It's alot of money we are talking about. But if they did complain and they didn't do anything about it whould be a damn shame. I could probably search this up, but why does only a few countries in europe learn english? Is it because we know the importance of beeing able to communicate with other people than just ourself. Or is it because we aren't as proud as the french and the germans for instance? :S
In Germany you start to learn english with an age of 8 years. 10, if you are on a weird elementary school.

people saying Stephano is overhyped - This guy has lost like 10 games in the past 2 months. Like total. Check his ladder stats and his tournament stats. He's lost like 10 games. Period. Against koreans, foreigners, anyone.
The guy is good.

Stephano, taking his skillz to the bank.

i don't get the stephano bashing. didn't he just become the foreigner with most prize money earned in like 3 weeks? he just beat MKP at a lan, MKP, who beat DRG who was said to have the best zvt in the world. people are just ridiculous.

I've been convinced for about a month that Stephano is the best zerg in the world, including Korea.
I don't see any other players that control their zerglings and roaches as effectively as Stephano. I don't know how he does it, but somehow he has mastered the art of not having lings running around not attacking. Watch him attack a siege line, he somehow separates his lings so that only the right amount surrounds the tanks and the rest carry on to attack the other units. Any other player I see do this, always has extra lings running circles around tanks and not attacking..... even Nestea last night vs MVP.
I would love to see him play a best of 7 vs MVP right now..... I would not be at all surpised if Stephano beat him.

Holy shit how stupid are some people?
Obviously Stephano couldn't hear anything. If any of the players could, obviously they would say something (because they know it would give an advantage to their french opponent...).
And calling Stephano gimmicky is laughable. His ZvP is 100% straight up. His ZvZ is 100% straight up (he doesn't go for any ridiculous timings or anything). His ZvT has been studied heavily by the Koreans (including MKP) and he still lost to it. He isn't winning because he's gimmicky. He's winning because he's fucking good.

Grats to Stephano!
I'm amazed at his level of performance. He seems to be able to take out some of the best Koreans quite consistently. He's probably the best foreigner right now in my opinion. I think he's tied with HuK for that, with IdrA, Mana, and Sen not far behind.
I agree Huk and Stephano proberly tied but dont forget Thorzain yea he havent been played great the last weeks but he has been sick aswell

This is the only time MKP has ever lost a BOX series to a zerg that isn't named NesTea.
Despite that, people still find a reason to shit on Stephano? It's ridiculous.

why do some people not see the importance of learning French, which is also a very important language in the EU (there is no accent on "le")
You swedish people grow up with non-dubbed movies, so your understanding and eventually your production of english benefits greatly from that without you even really noticing it. Also, swedish as a germanic language has lots of similarities to English.
your last sentence is not worth commenting on

I think saying MKP has the best TvZ is a bit of an exaggeration -- MVP would like to say hello -- but yes, basically what you've said.
No point in downplaying this guy's achievements, especially since he'll be retiring in a year. (Lol, reminds me of Creo.)

in truth he also lost to kyrix some time before open season 2, but he avenged it at the gsl

Don't worry about Stephano he will be retiring and MKP/MVP/Koreans will live on an improve upon their game while he will be studying. No point in saying Stephano is the best... because he's not going to keep it up due to retirement...

Gratz to Stephano for winning, but being able to hear the casters overshadows his achievement pretty hard...

Whatever he does people find ways to discredit his achievement. Now we reached the cheating accusation :D
Oh, how I wish he decided to go train in Korea for a few months and show that (whether?) he can actually kick ass just as much as top Koreans. I think its jelousy mostly. Everyone say you need korean training to become the best but somehow Stephano is a freak and just destroys koreans and the best foreigner all the time. So its a slap in the face to many. He clearly is very special No it's just that he is gimmicky and ridiculously overhyped. People don't like that. I mean, people like you saying he destroys koreans and the best foreigners all the time? That's just a fanboyish lie. It hasn't happened, no matter how much you wish it. Lol overhyped? He won IPL 3 and now ESWC world cup allmost 60k dollars in 2 weeks. Been a pro player for a month and he is overhyped? Take an old great zerg like Idra he havent won 2 major online tournaments have he? Overhyped lol gtfo To be fair, Idra won an IEM, MLG and IPL. Not Premier tournaments but definitly major ones.
IPL1 and MLG DC had laughably weak competition, and IEM china wasn't exactly filled to the brim with code S players

for sure he wont be retiring if he will keep up winning tournaments, hes the calculative guy, if hes winning its profitable ergo he will continue doing it.

Wow, c'mon, you seriously need a proof after that video that someone posted earlier? Really? Stephano is a great player and all, but there is no way he couldn't hear the crowd / commentators.
