A good decision made by Stephano...GSL is just to damn tough to foreigners...it's the tournament that separates the men from the boys.

I am actually impressed that Stephano could jump into Korea and be at gate keeper level. Feel like everyone hating on the performance and how horrible he did are actually hitting the other gatekeepers really hard that are focused on staying in code S, while Stephano did it just as a side operation.

As for the people that hate seeding, April the 3rd will be a horrible day for you.

The groups are already released. Rain and Last got the seeds like predicted in that other thread. Stephano was replaced by the winner of a wildcard group held between all the 3rd place finishers in the up and downs. KeeN got his spot in Code S

why do most of the world's sc2 fans like foreigners, because they look and act like real people. to do well in the gsl you haave to play at computer speeds, and be perfect, makes for boring games, and to get to that lvl the ammount of personal experience you have to sacrifice, makes you into a boring person.

Most korean interviews, OH i try hard and win for you thanks you thank you.

yes very polite, kind and nice, i like it, but its SO BORING

Stephano being happy is important as he's still the flagship hope of foreigner, undisuptably as of right now, I believe. I honestly think he's more of a valuable asset to EG outside of Korea while they focus their newly buffed up KR roster on proleague.

Foreigners that want to train and participate can cycle in as needed, but it never seemed like that was Stephano's style.

IDK, but to me the "flagship hope" would be someone who, you know, actually competes with the Koreans. Not someone who can kind of hold his own and then walks away from it without any real results.

Not judging his decision to leave Korea, but as long as he is unwilling to prove himself in Korea than IMO he can't really be called a foreigner hope. He's just another awesome pro-gamer in the west. One of many.

Like it or not, it ain't for real if it ain't in the GSL.

boring is relative. watching the top koreans play sc2 at the highest levels is the opposite of boring for me.

i'm afraid starcraft might not be for you, bud. try watching reality shows instead, like jersey shore. what the people there lack in substance, they make up for by being 'interesting'. :p

You have no way of knowing that.


According to them, Stephano is leaving Korea to take a rest in France and focus on international tournaments.

I'm just sayin'.
