Stephano practices really hard and then tells everyone he never practices

Actually it does help that he gets to play on the korean server, since the styles are a bit different he can adapt better to the korean players by doing so. And since he's such a smart player, he will gain more from observing the korean players than other foreigners would.
Don't let those anti-cheese advocates tell you what to do. Rush to meet life head on!

players like mma has been known to have very little practice time. Dont overgeneralize things here.

some players practice much less than others but still stay at the top. Youre kind of saying koreans are only good

because they practice like robots 24/7.

Hmm, hopefully the practice time with Koreans helps him a lot, maybe enough to where he decides to stay in Korea after MLG and maybe participate in GSL.

Also surprised he'd only stay in Korea for two weeks. I was expecting him to finally take his Code S seed and play in the upcoming season. Oh well.

the mod of his chat who is close to him, is giving a lot of hints about the season happening in October, it's confirmed that he received an invite for that season but when you ask if he is actually going to participate he says that he can't tell us right now, if he wasn't going to do it there would be no reason to hide it .........

Yeah, I get the feeling not too many people actually buy into it. I think its just his way of being cheeky ^^

I don't understand why he would hide it either way. If he's uncertain (i.e. if he wants to see how these two weeks go and then figure out where his head's at after MLG), then I understand. But if he already knows for sure whether he's staying or not... I see no reason to not say. Just to tease us? I wonder why he *can't* tell us if he's already made up his mind.

Stephano + GSL = shitload of viewers. GOM will do whatever they can to get him.

In the french interview that was translated here some time ago, Stephano himself said he had plans to participate in the October season and that he would certainly go back to Korea later this year.

If nothing major happens, that should work out.

I kinda hope he stays with Millenium, their partnership with TSL seems like both Stephano and TSL could benefit a lot from it.

If he changed teams when his contract is up, his current plans might fall apart. I don't hope so, would be great to see him finally play GSL.

If he is really enjoying korea he will destroy faces badly.
Hopefully his ZvZ will be fixed for MLG.

Only two weeks? Wondering if that means he's not doing the GSL? Guess we'll wait for confirmation from GOM, though most likely I expect he'll stick around to at least give one season a go.

it's not like he isn't studied to begin with, even by koreans. its gonna be a mutual positive effect on stephano AND the TSL guys
