I'm sure Millennium is paying Stephano's fine for him. Wouldn't make any sense if they didn't. Yes, Stephano is getting fined and he is paying it, but the moneys coming directly from Millennium.

I am a bit sad we're not seeing Stephano in coL though. I can only imagine what kind of monster Stephano will become when he is playing full-time in Europe. Now change the scenario and put him full-time in KOREA training with DRG. Jesus. Professional players all around the world are probably breathing a sigh of relief.

Guys, I think we should be more sensitive to Stephano. Signing with Complexity is essentially a 1 year+ commitment to becoming an international progamer, doing a lot of travelling and representing your team on the world stage. Thats a big step to take at 18 and a lot of pressure, balanced with strong feeling of security and comradery associated with staying with the home team. While Stephano needs to honor his commitments and make clear decisions, I dont think the any of hate here is justified.

There is because this whole thing could have been avoided if he just hadn't signed complexities contract and said he wasn't interested lol.

Well, he's subject to the fine so w/e, he's taking responsibility for his actions. He certainly made an error of judgment, but I hope he will get this past him and start practising full-time and dominating the world scene.

Usually, and then rightfully getting criticized and "hated" on for them. If it's true that he was lieing to coL about counter offers from Millenium(it seems this is the case), then he deserves all the hate he gets and more.

glad to see that this is resolved with the delivery of a penalty. This gives esports the professionalism it needs to further establish itself as a strong industry :D

I'm sure Millenium will pay the fine of Stephano. That must have been one of the ways they convinced him to stay.

"Nice deal, but if I break my contract with them, I could be held liable!"
"Don't worry, we got this."

Very unfortunate for Stephano, I bet this is costing him a lot of money compare to what he has in the bank.



If Millenium is forcing Stephano to pay I dont think he would have stayed there. Stephano got potential and Millenium knows this, he's their Ace so they better hold on to him cause without them they got...

Tarson? Lalush? Tod?
Yes this is somewhat good players but nothing compared to Stephano and importantly, what Stephano can become with the right practice, mentality and support from the team!

they dont have Tod , tod is with fnatic now.

Man this is all so twisted. Stephano signs a contract and almost instantly void it, why? How can Mill talk badly about coL's approaching Stephano, saying they used 'disorienting special tectiks'...
...
when THEY most obviously made him feel guilty (very very disorienting) of leaving his home team, even though his contract was already finished. This is the only fathomable reason for Stephano coming back on his decision, and if my assuption is correct, which I'd bet a 'lot-a-lot' on, it's just a disgustingly selfish move from Mill. As for Stephano, yeah he's just a kid, but usually you know what a contract stands for, and that it stands, period.

According to coL's Jason:

Stephano told coL he didn't have a contract with Mill, so coL had no real reason to talk to Mill except in due respect. Stephano however told coL that he was constantly in talks with Mills getting counter offers so coL was under the assumption Mill knew all about the situation through Stephano.

This statement seems to pretty much say Stephano is a liar for creating this whole situation by lying somewhere during those 18 days. Does he have a contract? Who knows, and honestly who cares now. He has lost so much respect from the community whether you liked him or not, that it comes down to whether he can keep winning going forward. Hes a strong player, but things like this can jump the shark for people.

Agreed, i always got a bad vibe from stephano ever since HSC, he has this sneaky attitude. Also his little teenage rebellion of saying anything but GG in games pisses me off lol.

I'm happy that this is resolved in a good way, and that we can put this behind us.

Big props to alexander garfield for intermediating, he probably didn't have anything to do with the deal at all seeing that he is one of the leaders of EG, but he still did it, and that's really nice

i don't think you can use the mistake excuse. from what bass said, stephano was telling col that he was getting counter offers from mill that whole time they were negotiating. mill, on the other hand, said they didn't know anything about it. something shady going on with that kid.

Can't you just be happy that you got what the witch's hunt reach its end ? You still want to insult other people, you don't know what happen and you never will, deal with it.

For those who thinks Stephano is an asshole, he has trained a lot with Sheth (and Nerchio), and Sheth is a living paragon of manners and I think he wouldn't train with someone who doesn't respect him.
