Because Stephano does well in foreign tournaments where nobody prepares specifically for him. Throw him in the GSL against the same group of players and every single one of them will have tailored a set of builds to rip him apart. I'm glad he lost. I don't hate Stephano, but I hate having to listen to the stupid amount of hype he gets. Hopefully this is the end of foreigner seeding. If they're good enough they will qualify on their own. I didn't say he was Ro4 material, just said that I thought he had a realistic cap of fringe Code S/A while at best Ro4. Only because Ro4 was the highest a foreigner got and Stephano is the best foreigner. I also threw in the part about how foreigners winning on foreign format too. I also enjoy reading foreign tears as much as any other gyo-po, but Stephano is for sure at least fringe Code S/A despite the results today. | ||

Naniwa had much easier matches (he avoided mvp completely) in his GSL group. Yeah. Bogus is probably the best Kespa Terran out there. There is no shame in losing to him. Especially if you watched the games... It's not really like Bogus outplayed him incredibly. Stephano gambled in game 1 and it didn't pay off and he lost therefore. Bogus gambled 3times and it payed off everytime... The real lesson is probably, that Stephano is probably slightly too predictable. | ||

As long as they can bring someone with a large enough fan base it is still a win for Gom because of the increase in viewers and subscriptions. Seeds are good for them from a business standpoint. Not saying I agree with them but you can definitely see why they would do it. i agree with the seed system. Basically, seeds widely exist in all sports and leagues for a good reason | ||

Oh and stephano isn't even code A level. Not with that stacked code A player list keep up the quality posting, you'll go far. | ||

He had the big disadvantage of having a lot of his game available to watch and analyze (streaming...), and Innovation is very good... I predicted that he'll end up 2 or 3 in the group, and I think it was realistic. He's good, but the format is new to him. Let's see how he does in Code A and further before going on the "omg, super over hyped" / " he played amazingly but [insert random excuse]". | ||

Just because he had an opinion you didn't like doesn't mean its wrong. I think he's code A, but who knows he could go 0-2, 0-5 in code A we shall see. | ||
