Excellent interview with great in depth questions that answered about everything I wanted to know (and more!). Very well done sir, even though, as some people mentioned, the translation isn't able to convey all of Stephanos points.

I just want to express my gratitude for this interview. This is the first time I've really felt that I gained an understanding of Stephano, and it was really nice. Before this interview, he was just so foreign to me, the random guy that shot into the scene, destroys everyone, and never practices... lol. After how funny he is in a lot of his English interviews, it was nice to get some real answers from him!

Having said that it's disappointing he doesn't seem to have a "passion" for the game like Naniwa.

It seems, for him, it's essentially "I can make some money, travel... I'll do it for a bit, why not".

Not blaming him for it whatsoever, it's a completely reasonable way to think but, as a fan, I wish he had more fire for the game.

Michael Jordan is an easy example. I wouldn't want to be friends with him but he was a good player to be a fan of as he let nothing come between him and being the best.



actually michael jordan did not really like basket ball, if he did he would not have quit basket ball to play base ball, fail at it then come back.. Im sure michael was like , well i guess im good at it, ill do it anyway. Might be the same for stephano.

After winning IPL3, then ESWC, and currently branded as the best foreigner in SC2, he goes on to say

"I [still] didn't think I was the best, not at all.. I knew I had not yet met the best Koreans"

What a baller. He knows that you're nobody unless you do well in the GSL.

You are a great interviewer. Definitely knew when and how to probe for more information, and somehow managed to get a solid 20+ minutes of interview with Stephano.

lolll him saying about Idra '' quest-ce qu'il est con!!! ''

2 guys that are so in love with themselves that jealousy makes them hate the other one.

but its cool for once to have some progaming content in french and that doesnt suck ballz

He never says Idra is dumb.
Someone throws something at him, and he says that that guy is dumb. It just happens to be while he's talking about Idra.

Good interview. Translation is fine for the most part.

thank you guys so much for all these nice comments, really means a lot to me (some of you got me blushing ^^)

@nouar I only subtitled the 2nd part and corrected the 1st (don't have much time either to be honnest) I do think there are few approximations to have idioms/ readable sentences, but I didn't see any mistranslations, can still pm me if needed

@kevin_sorbo he doesn't say it about idra but about one of his friend who threw something at him

What?
He retired because his father was just murdered and he was devastated. He also started playing baseball in honor of his father.

Seriously... the stuff people spew on these forums...
