Well this sucks... Idra and Stephano, the 2 most entertaining people in SC2, have both retired. Confirmed - StarCraft 2 is dead.

So heartbreaking seeing him go. Good luck in everything you do, Stephano! You'll always be one of my favorite players <3

I remember one moment:

The Red Bull Battlegrounds 2012 where he met PartinG in the RO8. PartinG made comments in the interview saying "I heard Stephano doesn't practise that much, well I practise a LOT and now i'm gonna show him" Stephano said nothing, and then went on to murder PartinG like it was just another nobody Protoss on the ladder. When he won, he had the most priceless face ever. It was something between not giving a shit and feeling amused at how easy it was.

Great write-up and compilation. It seems like his career came and went so fast compared to some of the others who retired in the last year but the impact of his ingenuity will live on in the players (and fans) he inspired.

Bonne chance à l'avenir.

gg no re

pretty irreplaceable in the foreign scene

if anyone was ever going to be the crossover SC2 superstar, it would've been Stephano

I still haven't forgiven him for not taking a GSL seed during his prime, but that's just who Stephano was.

he is young, he made a lot of money, he seemed like he enjoys fame and everything.. and now he will live a life that is so boring if you compare it with sc2 experience.. his decision maybe seems bad if you look it from different point then his (like my point of view :p ), but he knows himself the best..

I didn't like he was arrogant and didn't practise as much as Koreans despite wins (think of possible even better performance) but oh well. Good luck

They is a such thing as over practicing. Which can cloud your judgement when it comes game time. I do not know how much more he practice or had to practice, when he was with EG. But his downfall could have been from focusing to much time focusing on the game. When you have that space to get away, your mind can clear up to when you come back you can easily strategize better around production.

Honestly, this has made me quite a bit more sad than I thought it would. Reminiscing on all those great memories of the past few years.
