Chances of him grabbing the Code S championship are high, but he's aiming for semis? I think chances of Stephano being high when he said this are very high...

Think high is a relative term, 10-15% would be considered high in my book. Which I don't think is too far off.

Lol at him having a high chance to win the championship. I can't wait for him to get eliminated in the first round.

I think the post above yours was pretty well said. There are 32 people in code S, so you'd expect about an average of 3% chance to win. I think most people would agree that stephano is probably around a 10% chance, which is really high.

I really don't think it's close to 10% but what do I know, don't want to start an argument again, that's been discussed to death.

Haha, can you imagine if Liquid got sponsored by Red Bull? The rivalry would increase tenfold. (Not unfeasible either, Red Bull have sponsored Halo teams and MLG in general in the past. They once actually flew a Halo player to events in a 2 seater plane.)

Cool interview. I like that he doesn't care about a tournament he'd be very unlucky not to place top4 in because of too much ZvZ. Hope he can become solid enough in the matchup to remain consistent as the ace.

No he doesn't have anywhere near that. He is in the bottom 10 of players in this Code S. The only players I would even consider giving a 10% chance are Life and Parting. Sniper probably deserves 7-8% and then no on else has over 5%. You are drastically underrating Code S or overrating Stephano.

Did you come after practicing a lot because of your losing streak with ZvZ?

Are you sure this is the translation you want to stick with?

Aha, I see what you did there.

Really cool interview; I look forward to watching Stephano play in Code S. He says he can realistically make Ro4, so I wanna know if that pans out. Code S is full of scary players these days.

I really don't think it's close to 10% but what do I know, don't want to start an argument again, that's been discussed to death.

I wasn't thinking straight when I say most people would agree. Instead I should say something more along the lines, I think it is arguable that stephano is around 10%. The hard part about this estimate is the GSL is a very unique tournament, some people just excel in the GSL and some do poorly. All we can base it on is how well stephano does in foreign tournaments against code S level talent. Of course that plays to stephano's strength of rapid fire games, and he isn't jet lagged. However, stephano has been also doing very well in the proleague. I think it is reasonable (and also generous) to say that we could estimate his chance at about 10%. For an unbiased estimate we'd have to ask that aliguac (sp?) guy. Otherwise you have stephano fanboys, stephano haters, and people like me that just want to see foreigners do well in the GSL giving out lopsided estimates.
