Think before you post. This should go without saying, there are so many people making absolutely idiotic comments in this thread. If you have nothing constructive to say, please don't say anything. | ||

He was going to quit but he started earning so well that he decided to keep playing. If he wants to be a doctor that's prolly 6-7 years of education, a little winnings and EG salary goes a long way. | ||

He doesn't because of cash, not to grow as a player, but it is his choice, not ours, and i respect it, but i don't root for players if their motivation isn't the e-sport and get better as a player, but earn enough cash to retire. Korean teams pay less and offer a better practice environment which in return gives more prize money because of training. EG might not give a better practice environment but instead they pay better. And who says EG won't send Stephano to a Korean training house or let him stay in Europe to practice. Let's be real here you're just guessing around while I'm suggesting that a player taking a better offer (in terms of finance) is a good thing. | ||

Don't blame him doing it though as he's going to be getting a shit load of money and he has said this year or next year (Can't remember which) will most likely be his last year of Starcraft before moving to medical school that's really damn expensive. Curious to see if he still performs well as the best foreigner around at the moment or if he starts slumping. | ||

So he can not blamed for it, but certainly no applause is appropriate. I hope it will make him happy. It's unfortunate that EG is buying all good european and turning them into low.mid lvl performers though So what you're saying is that the only good Europeans are Demuslim and Stephano. Right, confirmed by this eurobro. | ||

I atleast can't say I like him much nor zerg, but he's pretty damn good tbh and I'd hate to see his skill lvl drop/stagnant as is the EG curse Obviously he's a good player, but I think he's overhyped and I don't like his attitude. So really he's a perfect fit for EG. | ||

People saying Stephano is a "money grabber" and "stupid" for doing what he might not of even done yet is quite silly. | ||

Until someone can explain how a player being given oppurtunities and the money they deserve is bad, you should all seriously shut up. Thread should be deleted. Thats why theres proleague, GSTL, IPLTAC, EG Masters cup, etc. Sure, SC2 teams are very different than traditional sports, but how can you say teams are of no importance. | ||

Because there are REAL team esports like cs and dota where team chemsitry and strengths/weaknesses between the players play a huge role INGAME. 1000x more important than starcraft teams. Look at Stephano for example, he is on Millenium, who do they have that he has benefited from when winning all these tournies by himself? nobody. | ||
