Of course money matters for him. He is a professional player and hes extremely good. Everyone has to earn money and Pro-players have short carrier in which they do not earn a lot unless they are lets say top 5 korea/worldwide.
How arrogant can you be to judge people for leaving one job for another.
I guess at least 50% of all people out there change their job when there is a better payed, more interesting or something else....the rest is mostly just too lazy.
stephano, the best foreigner of SC2, easily code S player if he practiced and took the game more seriously. what I like the most about him is that he's not fake, he's in it for the money and not the "glory" like all the other players claim.
damn his just a unappealing person man :/ kinda sucks his so damn good at playing zerg when his such a unappealing person :( really dont like him as a person
@Rebiin which would be why people wont give a shit about him in 2--4 tournaments time when his not the best anymore :) sc2 you only get to be best for a VERY short time and if you dont get a decend fan base at that time its kinda over ^^
and also don't forget he's french, it's not so easy to speak in english in the right way while he must not have lived in an english speaking country. It's just a bit non sense to talk about his personality just because of this itw.
@nihonzukisam we know since the franch are too stupid to learn english as second languish like EVERY one else in europe, but yer really hard sure... especially when you are a gamer that have worked with english your whole life... thats just sad :/
@Erebus2075 it's not a matter of good or not good at english. Unless you have lived in an english speaking country for many years, you won't be equal to a guy speaking in his mother tongue and it will definitely be easier for your "opponents" to argue on you with this advantage.
Also t is well admitted that Europeans, Nordic countries especially, are quite good at foreign languages, unlike americans or koreans for instance, who barely only speak their mother tongue.
Appart from that, though I'm french (omg), I know that your sentence : "franch are too stupid to learn english as second languish" is not a sentence correct enough to get credit from anyone when arguing on english skills...
I'm afraid working english your whole life has not paid off ^^... lol
@Krew2New Can`t agree more with you, it`s easy to pick on others but how many native english speaker are fluent in another language ? Closer to 0 than the number of french people being fluent in at least 2 languages.
I speak french just like you and I know that being able to speak more than one language is an asset and will be a must in the near future. Erebus2075 is only a freaking scrub, no match for a player of 1 / 100 of Stephano`s skill level.
Stephano is only 18, he said a few words that he might regret a few years later, though this need to be put in context. And being 18, I think it's quite enough for him to bring his contribution to the community by only playing well and innovatively.
Just let him live his life, he's still young to be judged by the whole world for just some tactless words.
I've been following this guy ever since he started with sc and became a massive fan from that day on. Now people around the world are starting to understand how fucking good of a player Stephano really is. He is, in my book, a highly ranked Code S player. What he did in IPL and in the tournaments before (slaughtering MMA) is just unreal stuff. LONG LIVE STEPHANO!! GOGO you hippie baller! <3
@f1rma wow, meet too, first time I saw him planing early this year, he was not that good as now, but I just really liked all the surprises he made each time, and I said to my bf, this kid is amazing, I really enjoy the way he plays, and he grows so fast, now I only follow his match, lol
top 5 europeans, thorzain, whitera, stephano, ret, naniwa, yeah, its useless even trying to name them as probably more i'm missing at same level. Grubby is also getting a lot better, and i expect him to become #1 protoss in EU.
@ChooJoy Because Wikipedia knows all... You're actually wrong on both things you could be wrong about. First, White-Ra is from the Ukraine, as evidence from his player page on Team Liquid's site (google it) and his own website white-ra.com. Second, the Ukraine is a country in Central/Eastern Europe. GG try again later.
@skllbeatslck i'm not sure if you're trolling, but If not I can only suppose that you mean, that Ukraine's not part of the European Union which would be correct. If you mean something else, you have to explain to me ;)
Stephano is calm as fuck. Kid never loses his shit. Really high level zerg player. Top three in Europe is stretching it, but I say White-Ra and Demuslim are for sure in there
Lol people want him to fake manner or some shit. Luckily some people don't mind giving you the straight up truth instead of cuddling you with white lies.
I haven't heard much about Stephano but his honesty is amicable.
i don't get the hate. cool guy and amazing player. also you could see that he wasn't really comfortable giving an interview in a language he's not fluent in and i think he wasn't able to express himself correctly all the time.
@JDRC07 Everyone plays for money, that's right, but apart from that, this guy adds nothing to the community. Part of watching starcraft tournaments for me is cheering for my favorite players. Stephano has absolutely no personality surpassing "I want le money" and looking like a religious serbian grandmother. Cheering for Stephano isn't cheering for a person, but for a simple hollow name.
@HomelessTwit As I said, Stephano is just a replacable name without any weight behind it. He doesn't have a captivating personality (because his attitude is apathetic and detached) like, say, WhiteRa or Destiny, and afaik said himself that he does not occupy himself much with other players. He has fans solely for playing well. These people are opportunists. As soon as another player is hyped as especially good, all of them will sheepishly run along.
The interviewer was an asshole, stephano is awesome and chill.
