That's besides the fact that Naniwa NEVER cheeses, which made his 2gate that more exciting to watch, especially since Nestea tried to cheese him out the prior two matches. Did you even watch Naniwa's matches? He actually did play incredibly the whole tournament, and if he wasn't such a stubborn and predictable player he wouldn't have gotten abused by DRG(I dont blame DRG one bit). Besides the fact that he had to play arguably the 3 best Zergs in the world, IN A ROW. Come on, I know there are lots of Naniwa haters but he played very well. Well said. Also, (besides the fact that the only game that went long against nestea was won by naniwa, even though he was really far behind at one point), yes that proxy 2gate was incredible play. Nestea had clearly studied Naniwa a lot, he knew he liked his greedy forge fast expand, and (cleverly) planned these all ins to take out that style. After seeing what nestea had done in the last 2 games, nani knew that nestea expected him to do his normal greedy build, and nestea choosing daybreak, nani knew he wanted to play a macro game. He was right, the 2gate killed him. It was well played. Shows naniwa can mindgame gosu just like the top koreans (a quality top players should have). | ||

I still feel like Naniwa deserves his Code s shine. Yes Naniwa is so good that he has yet to win a game in the GSL in Code A much less Code S. Naniwa's had his chance, numerous times to prove to someone other than his faithful that he belongs anywhere near the top level in the world. And now he doesn't even have the credentials to back it up where Huk and Polt have superior relevant credentials in 2012 for their seeds, both of them PROVING that they have what it takes to compete at the top level. Naniwa hasn't proven anything to anyone in Korea. He's beaten Nestea and Leenock a few times, but he also hasn't managed to win a game in Korea. That isn't a fair trade. | ||

Huk beat: Minigun, Socke, Ret, Oz Naniwa beat: Grubby, Sheth, Nestea, Leenock And you say Huk has proven to compete in 2012 while Naniwa hasnt proven anything? btw: Naniwa has won games in Korea (AoL, GSTL) | ||

Naniwa is incredibly determinated and hard-working, and Polt is incredibly talented and such a nice guy too. | ||

You are placing HuK over NaNiwa simply because of the placement @ MLG Winter Arena even though HuK had the easier way and got the easier opponents than NaNiwa. NaNiwa impressed way more than HuK. putting HuK over NaNiwa simply because of a 3rd place @ MLG Winter Arena where he met "tough" opponents such as minigun and Socke..... HAH. What a joke i say! Get a grip and get real! | ||

Wish he would receive a seed sometime in the future. | ||

His runs in Korean online tournaments (featuring largely Code B players) have shown that he is not above most of the competition; a Code A seed would be generous, but a Code S one would be plain silly. | ||

Demuslim needs to prove himself a bit more against Koreans. I love the guy but Nestea's play seemed off. I think there are better foreigners to consider. Stephano's interesting. I've never heard him mention in interviews if he's interested in ever going to Korea. The curveball there would be the fact that this is his last year as a progamer. | ||

And just because MLG > Assembly in talent doesn't mean anything. Polt pretty much had, in either Assembly or MLG, one of the hardest roads all weekend. Taeja, Hero, Lucky, and Stephano? Testing all of his match-ups and not just one? His "weakest" match-up being the one he had to play in the semifinals/finals and going 7-2 against top competition? Yeah i agree, Polt pretty much hit all of the best players in Assembly. I would say only MarineKings run was more impressive however i doubt MarineKing wont win his Code A match or in the Up and downs so i don't think we need to worry about MarineKing getting a seed.  | ||

Stephano (can beat anyone, loose to anyone) Naniwa (just beat Leenock and Nestea) Sase (has pedigree and plays beautiful matches, see Winter MLG, vs SAN) Morrow (won Ryung in up and down matches) The Swedes haven't impressed at the GSL but after Stephano i think they are still the best chance. Stephano is so inconsistent that it might be best to have Sase have a go. He hasn't done so badly and he plays fun matches. Naniwa has a bad record in total number of wins at the GSL but a large part was very very close and might get better with Protoss bumps. Naniwa has also won MVP and other respected Koreans in the past. I had a number of other players on the list. Thorzain is slumping. Huk's best win at MLG was Ret and truth be told I think Ret might still have a better chance at GSL. Sheth has pedigree like Huk and has looked really impressive lately. Naama has posted a few very nice games from Korea. I don't know if he is just posting winning games but they look very promising and he has won Dreamhack. Dimaga, Nerchio or Mana? | ||

Players in Code A still get screen time, and it can be exciting to have players like MKP fight their way back up. These seeds should be for players who we otherwise wouldn't get to see. | ||
