NANIWA! NANIWA! (read as chant)

Is it possible to be a #1 fan of multiple people? My fanboyism for Socke, Naniwa, and qxc is difficult to manage because I love them all so much.

Since when was Huk in a slump? This really floors me. The OP describes Huk as being in a slump, and for what? For losing to imMVP, one of the greatest players in the world? For staying in Code S? If we want to talk slumps, Jinro is in a slump, stuck at the moment in Code B (but I bet we'll see him in Code S quarter finals again!). You can't say somebody's in a slump because they haven't been number uno in a tournament recently, or then 99.9% of all players in the world are in slumps at any given moment of time. Huk got 7th place in the last two MLG's (correct me if I'm wrong), which I think is pretty damn good considering the increased Korean presence in MLG.

Or... was the OP being sarcastic and I just completely missed it?
Second favorite strategy game of all time: Starcraft. First: Go (aka Wei Qi, Paduk, or Igo)

Naniwa:
The women in Korea are very beautiful but the language barrier makes it very hard to communicate with Koreans in general. But I am planning to stay here a long time so I will start learning Korean asap when I've gotten a bit more settled to everything and have the time for it. And I prefer Korean girls by far, I like the Asian look in general.

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.


You are my king!

"..the lack of early game scouting Protoss has"

That sounds familiar o.O But yeah he seems really pissed at Protoss atm

The world doesn't spin around MLG.
He did bad/terrible at IEM and Assembly, losing to MVP in the GSL is no shame and no one calls him slumping because of that, but you also can't say he isn't because, well, he lost ^^...

Probably it was his travel shedule, we'll see .

20/32 terrans cries imbalance more, all he really said was that protoss is in a sad state in korea right now which can't exactly be argued against

He didn't even make it out of his group at IEM nor Assembly and couldn't qualify for Blizzcon and didn't even get 2nd place at a NA-only event. Pretty bad for someone who people used to call best foreigner. A lot of it probably had to do with his insane amount of traveling tho

I'm Predicting IdrA to win this Tournament. His ZvZ is really good..... i think he can take out DRG if he ends up Facing him in the Finals...

If you ever watch IdrA's Stream his ZvZ is pretty scary... scary good

EGIdrA EGHuk FIGHTING!

Idra won't beat Hero. If by some miracle he does he won't beat Huk either.


I kind of agree with the OP. I love me some IdrA but I just can't see him going far in this tournament.

If by some miracle he beats HerO he will not beat Thorzain / HuK in the next game.

But again he has mad potential so who knows? I think after he has been in korea for a while he will get back to standard idra pwnage.


Really excited for this weekend though! I like all the players and cant decide who I want to win And there seems to be 2 clear finalists but not so much that I would be overly shocked to see them knocked out before the finals.

Incredible write-up... thanks for the work in putting it together!

Every interview of Naniwa's I read makes me respect him even more - the guy literally wants BW bootcamp style practice houses and doesn't care about anything but getting better. Such a great attitude.

This tourny is going to be incredible - I cannot wait!

Thorzain to take the whole thing!
