I don't see why it would happen during prime tournament season. These guys are busy. Assuming it was a long series ( can't imagine it wouldn't be with the amount of money we're talkin about) that's several hours and also a revealing of strategy for a cash purse without much prestige.
All in all, I'd expect not to see it until after Stephano goes back to europe.

This would have made me giddy in the pants!
Hopefully it will still happen!

After Naniwa lost to haypro at mlg he decided maybe his chances vs stephano were pretty low.

10000 is too much money whitera and stephano played for 5000 and that is also a lot of money there is no reason to be greedy

Except Stephano is the one known for not showing up to matches (including this one), not Naniwa

Considering Stefano lost to Inori I don't think that's the real reason.

That is the next time they'll be on the same server and I doubt they'll play cross server for a lot of money. Of course now that Stephano has decided not to follow through with the 5k I don't know if it will actually be a lot of money up for grabs.

Why would you expect a date? It isn't going to happen since Stephano chickened out. Naniwa has called out Stephano even in this thread but no response other than Stephano saying he won't do it.

GSL for NaNiwa and IPL 4 for Stephano I think.
I don't think things will happen.

i asked stephano at mlg but he denied.. dont count on him ever daring to put up this kind of money.. we will probably end up in a smaller showmatch soon tho.

Tnx for the update.
Seriously though, the interest for this is huge. A promoter could get a sponsor and start promoting it NOW, as in immediately.
Something like: RAZER BEST FOREIGNER SHOW MATCH, casted by day[9].
Narrative: Who is the best foreigner currently? Is 3 hatch roach actually imbalanced in favor of Z as stephano claims? Genius level natural talent vs sacrifice everything to be the best. The bad boy controversial protoss vs the pink zerg that always brings his stuffed dog mascot. The hype potential seems endless.
Winner gets to play huk next week for an equal sized prize pool.

Aw man, this would have been a great battle of the Europeans, lol. Though any match between you guys would be a fun showmatch to watch, even if it is for less money than $10,000.

Man if it was anyone but Stephano I feel like they would get blown up for dodging like this but too many people are obsessed with him right now to do that.
Seriously what a dodge, back in my day you could never get away with that crap. Ask for a $5000 showmatch only to back down when the person you challenged accepts it.

1000 or 2000 $ showmatch would be enough I think. 10k$ without sponsors is... a lot

Why even make a comment like this? As a "pro" shouldn't you be above this? lol.
