Quoting some Stephano language this is some bullshit. They guy ownes everything, beats everybody, becomes the best zerg in the world, beating even koreans and he.. retires.. making me really sad and kind of pissed, because he was our hope and without him SC2 is less...

Well, anyway, farawell friend !

Are you implying that there are hundreds current pros and semi-pros LoL players that have the potential to come in and dominate SC2 at any moment, with a latency of a few months from the day they switch?

Nice bump Wax. I also like the thread name edit.

Looks like he's playing between classes and exams for now, but if it's enough to qualify for challenger then sure.. game on Stephano.

Yeah, we have been skirting around this topic ever since beta now, so I’ll just fucking say it: the competition in SC2 thus far has been a farce.

edit: Oh wow, thanks for TL+. Glad someone liked the post

I am also excited due to the sheer amount of action, intensity, and excitement involved in his play. It will be truly a pleasure for it to be showcased on such a grand stage

This is pure Stephano tradition.

"Holidays ? OK, let's play and stream some SC2. Oh, WCS qualifier ? Well, why not."

Reminds me when he won WCS EU in 2012 after one whole week hanging out with Bitterdam without practicing, without sleeping for 30 hours and while losing his whole stuff at the airport. This guy just doesn't care about the conditions when he's playing.

Its incredible to see that Stephano is still good enough to make it into WCS EU off the back of 1 days practice. But I'm not excited to see more of him if he continues making so many hosts.
