He's been offered before and declined right? Plus final rounds are at IPL which he'd be attending anyway.

Flash? Roro? Baby? Even JD has been doing well (not as bad as before)

EG must have force him to finaly accept it. ( Because I'm pretty sure he didn't want to play in GSL anyway, he doesn't care about fame )

Code S for him, I suppose

EG.Stephano has been suspended for the month of October due to his recent inappropriate comments. Press release: http://evilgeniuses.net/ilyes-stephano-satouri-suspended-for-october/

Today, Evil Geniuses announces that French Zerg player Ilyes “Stephano” Satouri has been suspended without pay for the remainder of October, following his recent inappropriate comments. He will be ineligible to participate in all online and offline competitions during the month of October, including the upcoming GD Invitational and DreamHack Bucharest tournaments for which he was previously signed up. We sincerely apologize to the respective organizers of these tournaments for any inconvenience the last-minute cancellations may cause.

That apology, however, obviously comes as secondary to a much more significant and direly-needed apology for Stephano’s inexcusable comments themselves. An apology in his own words can be found at the bottom of this post, but additionally, everyone at Evil Geniuses – including management, players, and staff – would like to sincerely apologize for these comments. They do not reflect our company’s sense of morality, behavior and propriety, and they will not be tolerated.

The full extent of the ramifications for Stephano’s comments is yet to be determined. The decision to suspend him, without pay, for the rest of October is final, but the situation is still being reviewed internally at EG, and we do not consider the matter closed as of yet.

We’d like to thank everyone in the gaming community for your patience, and we once again apologize for this incident. For those interested in reading it, Ilyes’ personal apology follows immediately below this note.

Sincerely,

Evil Geniuses

Ilyes “Stephano” Satouri’s Apology:
“I want to very sincerely apologize to all of my fans, my teammates and management at EG, all of EG’s sponsors, and the rest of the community for my comments last week. They were insensitive, inappropriate, way over the line, and are deserving of the serious ramifications I have received from my team. I accept responsibility for my mistake, and I will be more careful in the future.”

@Frederic_Luu @EvilGeniuses he made a joke that he had raped a 14 year old girl

Is this true? If it is, he certainly deserve the punishment.

Getting close to Seoul now. 10 hour flight from Amsterdam seems pretty brutal. Hope he brought some reading material. =)

Here are my thoughts

Stephano got a small mini suspension from EG from attending some tournaments. Stephano salary is so big anyway that those small tournaments are basically chump change. EG probably said, okay well you are suspended , but hear what , Lets turn this punishment into a good thing, We will send you to korea to train, November is a huge month with alot of potiential to make big bucks, So go to korea and train your ass off so you can win atleast one of the big tournaments .



Thats my thoughts and reasoning for stephano going korea. I dont think he is going to play in the GSL. If he was going to play in GSL he would have booked his ticket later, The code S finals hasnt happened yet and they are still more code A /Up and downs to play.


If he is competing in the next season of GSL, that will come in another announcement.
