Okay, I mean no disrespect, but I'm getting REALLY tired of waking up to spoilers. Do the results have to be in the headline?

That being said, awesome news :D

This group is hilarious, the fact that Virus and Inca are Code S is just insane. Hopefully, Nestea and MC crush through, but stranger things have happened, and I think we all secretly want Inca to win with DTs.

Read the header for this thread on the front page for my reaction to this statement.

In other news, so glad Nani finally proved his point once and for all.



what point did he prove once and for all?

If you're referring to him actually winning in GSL, let's not get ahead of ourselves. It's one day.


He proved that he's Code S level, he proved he can beat Koreans on their home turf, he proved, basically, that he actually is a top level player. Seriously the guy has so many haters that I can't help but feel a little smug, and yeah it's one day but now the only argument for Nani not being top level (his record in Korea) is now null and void because he's one of the only foreigners to make it out of the Ro32.



Here's the thing, he didn't earn his spot to code S legitimately. So yea he won today vs code s players, sure. Nobody denied he can't win vs code s players. But to say he proved he's Code S level by getting a welfare seed and winning one day to me doesnt' feel right.

If he continues winning in Code S and maintains Code S status for at least 1 season, then yea I'll say he's truly Code S.

Oh and you say just because he's a foreigner and he won 1 day with still a negative record in GSL, it's null and void (the argument you mentioned about him not being a top player)?

So he gets special treatment because hes a foreigner is what you're saying. No, let's see if he can continue this.

Well he's already proven long ago that he's capable of taking down S-class koreans in international events. Honestly, nani is supposed to be the favourite vs ryung and puzzle if it wasn't for the fact that he keeps choking hard in the GSL. Now he's shown that he can perform in the GSL as well without being too affected by nerves!



I agree with your point about beating puzzle/ryung.

Naniwa and Huk are very dangerous in PVP.

And I knew he'd in all likelihood beat ryung. Ryung is just a TVT specialist.

I can't see how you can question being Code S level if you make it out of your group. If you're Ro16 you deserve to be their period, say what you like about Puzzle and Ryung they are Code S players and Nani beat them in the booth to make it to the next round.

I'm not saying he gets any special treatment? You might not like the seeding system but let's remember some of the other players who got Code S with those seeds; DRG? MC? MMA iirc?

What are you basing this on? Only because Huk beat Oz at MLG and also beat Hero+Naniwa+Parting recently?
Thats not enough.
He's 14-13 in PvP in Korea. And had a bad run against european toss before MLG, losing 5 straight series (elfi, Naniwa, Titan, Seiplo, Hasuobs).

I would throw Squirtle into contention. Hes 18-6 in korean PvP, won 5 PvP at IPL4 against very good opponents.

The most interesting group coming up. I'm looking forward to it. Hoping our beloved champs, El MurloC and Professor Tea, will go through. GSL Code S is not the same without them.

Nestea/MC to advance, if they get fairly early detection, inca shouldnt be a problem :p

I don't know if Waxangel is biased in this matter or he simply forgot to mention it, but after heavily hinting at a TvP imbalance in Protoss' favor in his Group H Recap, I would've expected him to follow up on the matter after the Group G games. Ryung lost badly to NaNiWa because his cheesy play didn't work out and because he got straight-up outplayed, but then Mvp crushed Puzzle with a different style that, frankly, made all the P>T imbalance talk look a bit silly.

He even mentions Group G in his Group H recap and how it will be interesting to see how that'll go TvP-wise, so it's a bit disappointing to see him forget the whole issue in this recap.

Only Oz has better PvP than InCa.


InCa PvP win/loss ratio is falsely inflated by all the DT coinflips. MC has more solid PvP.


If they are coinflips then Inca's W/L ratio should not be above 55%.

You don't know how probabilities work.


If inCa has more coin flips, they will serve to bring him closer to 50%. That is how probability works, the larger the sample size to closer the result to 50%. So it is actually more likely for MC, who supposedly has less DT coin flips to have incorrect value as the smaller the sample size, the more aberration.
