Funny thing is that Stephano's strenght is actually JD weakness. (engaging properly - Stephano is one of the best zergs to get the best out of his units), Jd on the other hand has much better macro than Stephano, yet that doesn't really matter as much as unit control.

Maybe I'm mistaken, But I remember someone (Idra? don't know) from EG saying that when Stephano was at their house, he didn't know how to explain well the things he did, he went more with instinct than thinking too much
Add that to english-korean language conversion and you have a nice coach :D

edit: I think JD still needs to master the strategic aspects of sc2, because he has more than enough mechanics to pull off Life-esque plays.
You can tell he's a deliberate guy though, I think his one-step-at-a-time approach will pay off hugely in the long run
strategic concept? He is probably building the correct units.
He just engages awful pretty much every game i watch him play (including the games he has played when streaming). Stephano would win most of the game jaedong loses if stephano could control the fight for jaedong.

Well but I am pretty sure that Stephano could still explain how/when Jaedong should engage and when to retreat if they looked the replays through together (assuming they could remove the language barrier).
