stephano is losing vs lions, series tied now.


Oh god pls have him drop out. With his practice attitude and the fact that he is just in it for the money he makes pro gaming look like a joke, I really can't wait for the day he retires, hopefully droping out of dh helps with speeding that up.


The pro in pro gaming is for professional = money. So that doesn't make a lot sense to not go for the money.
(And yes I think everything called pro without making any money is wrong used.)


So there were only like 20 foreign bw pro gamers ever? And where do you draw the line? Am I a pro gamer when I make 5 bucks at a local lan? Honestly to me a pro gamer is someone who puts all of his time into the game and tries his best to become the best, not to be able to build roaches, a move to victory and use it as a cash cow to drink alcohol.
Honestly if courage was still around I'd say a pro gamer is someone with a license...


I'd draw the line where you can live from it. But that's just my point of view.

I don't mind calling a lot more pro. My point was that going just for the money is exactly what pro stands for so doing this can't be a "joke".


To me there is a giant difference between making money off of it and doing it for the money, but to each his own. And I think I can call stephano a joke "pro" gamer as much as I want^^


Lets be honest about this, you would never get into progaming to make money (and if you do you must be a complete moron or very deluded) so at one point it's very likely that he was passionate about the game. Isn't the main reason he's retiring because he doesn't enjoy the game anymore? Sounds to be like you just don't like Stephano.

I liked seeing the comparative APM values in that last JD score screen.

Watching Jaedong play vs protoss is so painful, even when he wins. He just manages to find the most difficult path to walk in 90% of his games.

Finally Jaedong won this. It is sad that in sc2 every Jaedong game looks like even and his mechanics don't give him advantage.

this. He could've easily taken out the protoss army there but then went for a base trade and he didn't even take out the pylon for those 4 gates before he left lol.

Thats just not true lol. He looks weak vs protoss because he just doesn't seem to get it. The only reason he wins in a lot of zvp games is his mechanics. In a matchup where he understands whats going on, like zvt and zvz his winrates and gameplay are absurd.

I'm fairly sure the game he enjoyed was war 3, then he realized that wol wasn't that much harder and he figured out one point of the meta really well, and after that I'm fairly sure he stayed in it for the money, and imo the reason he drops out is because he doesn't make as much as he used to. And yeah I do not like him, as I wouldn't like anyone so unwilling to work hard.

His TvZ's and ZvZ's, where he can fully utilize his great mechanics, look phenomenal and are beautiful to watch though.

quoted wrong person. Yea, I agree with you. He hasn't fully learnt the ZvP matchup.

Stephano drops a map and all the haters pop out of the woodwork. Sad that some people hate to see talented players succeed.

Whenever I see a good Zerg like that dominating/not taking dmg it just looks like Zerg is completely invincible and pretty easy. It's a shame their prowess isn't really very visible, at least with this style.
