It was announced on stream today that Stephano will be stopping his career on August 15th, opting to go back to school and continue his studies that he left for two years to become a full-time progamer. During his time, Stephano has been the best foreigner in SC2 history, winning prolific tournaments such as WCS Europe, IPL, and NASL. He has made $216,000 in his career, winning over $100,000 more than any other foreigner, Mana in second place at $94,000.

EG loosing both stephano and idra in such a small time frame will be pretty bad for them.

he realizes the over all prize money is going down hill. Smart exit by him.

Wow. I hope he at least makes a decent last appearance in the months to come so we don't just get this feeling that he just declined from his past greatness.

It's been obvious for a while now, his play in HOTS has been way inferior to WOL.

Hes had a good run. He knows when to quit, which is a good thing i suppose.

EG is losing 2 star players which is abit of a hard blow to them.
Professional Cunt.

Well thats obviously a good call by him, zerg in hots is hard to enjoy. On the other hand losing both idra and stephano leaves me with almost no foreign zergs to cheer for
