I can understand Stephano's decision pretty well. But it is a shame that foreigner are not able to stabilize themseles in GSL at the moment, I mean Grubby and now Stephano. Huk is luckily still there, but I'd like to see more foreigners trying with a long-term plan, as if to compete over some three or so seasons. I feel like few unfortunate brackets/groups and then some losses delivered by those who have more experience in GSL style play are having too much impact when foreigners don't use the possibility to try to actually make a "GSL career".

Aaaand foreigners prove why Korea will always be #1 in StarCraft, 1 or 2. More dedication, more skill, less greed. Fans of foreigners, time to fess up.

People want players to go after the glory, not the money.
But perhaps they don't actually when I think about it, since everyone hate Naniwa and everyone love Stephano.

They should ban Rain too, and Grubby for skipping out on their matches for other events. Its disgrace that these players don't just drop everything when GSL sets their match on the same day as another event. They should play in their qualifying matches for GSL and forfit the events where they would win real money. We all know that qualifying for the GSL is more important than anything.

i'm not hating on stephano, but he wouldn't be making shit if it weren't for fans. to go out of his way occasionally and try at something he may have been uninterested in before for them might not be such a bad thing. I understand his decision, but don't think he's so entitled.

GOM fucking changed Grubby's Code A date by a month with almost no notice. How the fuck can people blame him when they should be blaming GOM and their shitty planning.

Math is hard for people. Also, dates for IEM, known for months. Dates for the Up and Down matchs, released today.

Its not Stephano's fault that the people at GSL can't write IEM on the calendar in black marker.

understandable sentiment but unfortunate example. nani has a shit attitude and it seems almost goes out of his way to be a dickhead. having said that, I actually like naniwa, but he definitely isn't as personable as stephano.

So why are you mad at people blaming Stephano? I'm mad and I know full well he chose money over GSL. Don't imply that everybody who's frustrated with Spephano and his GSL affair is ignorant.

There is no reason for this to happen, Stephano should either tell GOM before hand so that they can plan around it, or just not bother at all if he keeps chosing other tournaments over GSL.
We know nothing.

Don't argue with these people, they want to complain and claim that no one tries harder that Korean players. Now, Korean's that set the date for U&D matches, they don't really try that hard at all, but that's ok.

GSL gave him a seed right into the most prestigious tournament in Starcraft a Free Seed, the least he could do is play out his time till he bombs to Code B where he belongs anyway -.-

Yea IEM will most likely get him more money(Gonna laugh my ass off he bombs out of IEM!) but when EG is paying your salary maybe just once think of some one else and maybe repay GOM for giving you the seed and play the up/downs? Maybe let your fans who have been dying to see you in the hardest tournament around see what you can do?

Granted I'm biased, I will not hide the fact that I'm a Stephano anti fan. Still seems like a shitty move imo.

FFS grubby wanted to go but since the GSL qualifiers date was changed he couldn't go since he already booked his flight on that date, dont blame him! About Stephano, he tried his best but he has a much better chance to win IEM and more $$$ in a shorter period of time!
