Hilarious interview the interaction between them is really funny.I think that koreans are going to think that foreign players are really bm between idra naniwa and stephano ^^.

Nonetheless, I will root for him because he's a foreigner and all foreigners must stand united against the Korean menace.


What the hell is wrong with Stephano's attitude?


The whole "all I want is money" thing I guess rather than the "I think the trophy is more important than the money" attitude that all the other players have.

I guess I'm fine with Stephano being here for the money only, I have to say I respect the other way of thinking more though, Stephano sees the game as a way to make money while the other ones do it for other reasons (mainly, I guess).

Probably because he doesn't take the game as serious as his opponents (regarding only training 4-5 hours a day and not wanting to quit being a progamer). But as long as the professional scene lets him get away with that, that's fine by me. Whatever it takes to win, I say, and if it takes him only this little practise, then that makes him a genius. And if he want's to quite being a progamer, then it's a shame, but nothing I can do. :-/

Anyways, this is by far the best interview series I have read so far in starcraft 2. really nice job by all of the people involved.

Welcome to real life. They are pro players they make a living of this. Stephano just being honest.

I don't know, I think the money is quite relevant to many players. I don't see Stephano's attitude being much different than most, though maybe a bit more honest than some.

He quits progaming to focus on university when he gets in. He will study medicine. That's a great attitude if you ask me.

Haha it's always great to see who takes these interviews super-seriously, who's good-natured about them, and who just doesn't give a shit.

Thank you for them!

MVP and Polt are so funny. I really want MVP to win Blizzard's cup but my heart is torn 3 ways, MVP Polt and Nestea!

Hope Naniwa can be shut up by Nestea. He really really sucks at PR. Who says things like "its only another tournament" in the leadup to the tournament itself oO.

haha this is hilarious, thanks so much for the translation! :D

Naniwa: I hope I can show good games. I also want to say something to NesTea and that is I hope he can stop being angry and we can be friendly with each other.


No response from NesTea? :O

HAHAHA that picture and the way Leenock looks. it just threw me off he's so tiny literally a child among adults, for some reason because of SOTG I just hear the lollypop kids in my head when I see him.
The road isn't always straight.

Hahaha Scumbag GOM putting Leenock next to NesTea in the group photo.

Anyway, I like the Naniwa-NesTea rivalry but also MMA-Polt! ^_^

MVP said he only plays to make money and that is what pros do, theres even an interview where he says he is only interested in winning just for the money.

Idra said the same thing so many times..

lol, Naniwa is trying so hard to fake not being an a-hole. I'm shocked at how bitter Neatea still is though!

No, they did not. They said money is important, but prestige is more important.

Thanks a lot for translating. One of the best interviews I have read lately. I really enjoyed the interaction between the players.
The pic is just hilarious. Leenock is so short and chubby. Nani just looks awkward as hell.
What a player

NesTea: It's Naniwa. I got really angry after losing to him in MLG Providence. Naniwa paused the game and after waiting 15 minutes we continued the match. After that my build hiccuped and I lost in an anti climactic way so I want to use this chance to punish him thoroughly.


Pretty surprised by this since I was under the impressions that whole situation was sorted out at Providence. Still it's pretty great, l sure do enjoy rivalries ^^

I loved how MVP wanted Polt to play MMA and Polt to win. It seems like everyone wanted MMA to come second.
