I'm really glad that despite all the outside pressure to choose progaming over school, Stephano is sticking to his priorities. When he was on Live On Three, I was really uncomfortable with how the hosts were almost telling him to skip school and just play SC2. It was really irresponsible.

i recognize stephano's attitude. he's just trying to make himself look so incredibly good and skillful by pretending that he doesn't take the game that siriously and only plays it for the money, when infact he's practicing really hard, It's like "Look at me, i hardly ever practice and able to win major tournaments" the reputation he's trying to sell. i really don't think he's gonna be quitting anytime soon, even though he says he will.
Let a man play chess, and tell him that every pawn is his friend. Let him think both bishops holy. Let him remember happy days in the shadows of his castles. Let him love his queen. Watch him lose them all.

I think Stephano just speaks out what most kiddies don't wanna face. E-Sports is now where near to be a career plan. A handful of pros can make a living, the rest has to fight for stupid things like flight tickets in economy class being paid. And when finally reaching their 30 they are all out of business. This guy shall have fun for one more year earn some money and then join university to become a good doctor. When he and MVP are in their 60s, guess who is gonna have more cash in the bank.

Most of this can be said for any sport.

Great interviews!

Is it just me or do the most succesful foreigners all seem to have the "I don't give a fuck about other people and what they think attitude" ? =)

Case in point: Idra, Naniwa and Stephano

Not sure about Huk

So if you suffer a bad loss in the groups early on, do you think you can bounce back?

It doesn't matter to me in other games if I win or lose the previous match, I just treat each match like it's the same thing, and give it my best.


You have some MLG rematches in your group. Against Nestea, where there was some controversy in your match, and versus Leenock, who you lost to in the finals. How do you think the games will go this time?

Nestea, I expect to win against, but I don't know how much he has practiced and what he has prepared.

Yea they have to go out of their way to show their "I don't give a fuck attitude" to cover their own insecurity. If you really don't give a fuck then you won't even talk about it. Well the results already speak for itself.

Wow team MVP sound like pretty terrible people. Pretty much saying to Naniwa he wasn't welcome there despite the partnership they had and not practicing with him. Must have been a pretty bad time for Naniwa, living with a bunch of people that hate you.
