I think if eSports will ever be something like normal sports players should learn something about sportmanship , winning and earning $ shouldn't give you the right to be arrogant and act like a mercenary Well in other sports it's done but offstage, at least e-sport is not that hypocritical. And I think you misunderstood Stephano, he is acting, just to draw attention, sometimes you see he were acting like at the end when he was overwhelmed by emotion. | ||

It'll most likely have a total of four terrans period unless Redarchon or Infi somehow defy all odds and pull off a miracle. If there's a single terran in the RO16 I'll be happy. | ||

The "Humble Korean" act doesn't fly with foreign audiences... it's boring. Nobody wants a guy to go up there and pretend he is so humbled by the experience, so grateful, bla bla bla. The dude just smashed the best Europe has to offer and took home a $25 grand. He should be hyped and he should be cocky. All the haters can keep on hating, because it's obvious that Stephano draws the crowds. Any tournament he is in, the stream numbers show it. Hell, look at the stream numbers as soon as he starts playing... they always spike and drop when he is done. Whole tournaments suffer when this guy is knocked out early (doesn't happen often...). Much better, IMO, than half these guys who get up on stage and offer no conversation or emotion at all. Naniwa can be as "passionate" about the game as he wants... doesn't seem to be getting him too far. Maybe money and success are better driving factors. Stop using the word hater, should be fucking banned. Not you in particular but just because people aren't sucking somebody's dick doesn't mean they're being a 'hater'. God worst term to crop up in common discourse in my living memory! I view Stephano as a Michael Schumacher kind of figure, everyone will respect their ability as you simply have to. Not everybody will love the guy. You say 'he has personality deal with it', perhaps he has a personality other people don't like! Grubby and Stephano both have personalities, but they're entirely different personalities that will attract different folks | ||

These people do have interpersonal skills. Gaming is still under a heavy stigma with the general public which is why it takes a while to catch on. I'm guessing once the new generation hits adulthood, it'll be the biggest form of entertainment out there. | ||
