One question: when he played the IPL qualifier, which server was it played on? Cause that would keep it impressive, but take something away from it compared to straight up games with no lag. You can't compare someone beating someone in a lan environment to someone beating someone in an online cross-server game, and say it shows equal skill ... it's still impressive, cause some of those players are insanely good, but lag DOES play a part. (of the opinion while he is sickly impressive, he isn't as good as nestea losira drg julyzerg and probably sen - personal opinion). | ||

Qualifier #2 : Stephano was in Tunisia and had a worse lag than koreans. Qualifier #3 : He was back in France. Hint : He beat Sen at Assembly Summer. | ||

I do still stand by my opinion though  Having beaten someone once (dimaga nestea) doesn't make them better imho. I just think he still needs to prove something more in lan tournaments - especially with more koreans, in order to judge roughly how good he is. But I will say that atm I'd rate him slightly over Idra for example edit: It's just an opinion, not claiming to know. | ||
