Hopefully he does well in DH!

mm well again, its all about his mindset. His mindset made him 2-0 MC right after he won GSL, and then his mindset 4-0'ed himself. He has the potential to take games off everyone (even MVP on Steppes :O)

Well really I want IdrA to win. He needs to break his slump and defeating a few Koreans would make him happy and ready to train when he gets to Korea.

Naniwa forgot the correct answer to the question about Koreans vs Swedes. The best possible girl must of course be half Korean and half Swedish.

Jetlag made him 2-0 MC. Idra himself said as much. Evidenced by that fact in their subsequent meetings MC 2-0ed and 4-0ed him. A mindset doesn't make him go 3-23 vs koreans(something around that) and lose to trimaster. This is simply Idra's skill level, hopefully he'll get better in Korea though.

Yeah the thing about korea is well you get trashed even top tier foreigners. Its frustrating over there I imagine in terms of playing that its hard to be confident when you go from an 80% win ratio or however high they were to 50% or lower in korea. Well be interesting to see how naniwa plays this dreamhack. Unfortunately I have to agree with him that idra doesn't stand a chance against hero in his current state (idk bout lucifron). Should be fun to watch ^_^ hope DRG wins.
When I think of something else, something will go here

Me too man, his TvZ has really impressed me. He beated Stephano 3-0 and made it look easy.
But I don't think his TvP and TvT is strong enough to get him the championship.

Huk lost to trimaster too in the same tourney. :O Trimaster is Code S or Huk is really bad.

Or by this logic: Hero lost to Select! Select is better than HerO! Select lost to Rain! Rain is better than Select who is better than Hero! IdrA beat Rain who is better than select who is better than Hero! IdrA > Hero

-_- Let me have my hopes please. I am sad right now and just want to hope in peace

Nothing to do with what I said and huk didn't lose to trimaster but ok I guess.

All the hype Lucifron is getting won't help him, DRG is on another planet in TvZ. I feel bad for Lucifron, he should have been matched up with someone easier in the first round. I think a big reason that was able to get an invite is because he is from Spain, and the tournament is in Spain.

I am really surprised you have him taking a game. Either way, it should be interesting, good writeup.

You've said before you'd like to stay in Korea for a long time, and you'd stay forever as long as you had Code-S. How many more months do you still think you'll stay at minimum, and is your plan still the same regarding Code-S?

Right now I feel like there is no point to go back, I can see myself staying here for several years, Code S is my eventual goal to reach, and then from there Champion. But I will take it one step at a time. But I plan to stay here as long as i have to to reach my dream.


I love nani's attitude and dedication, really want to see him succeed

Oh yes, that glorious build, it was Morrow's execution but the build was just genius.
