This article about naniwa is not that well researched. Actually naniwas results at the last WCS were not that good he almost dropped out of WCS entirely. he was defeated 2:0 by Mouz.HasuObs in the challenger league.

I think nani is one of those that sometimes outshine themselfs... and then drop back to a very poor result. His performance at WCS was nothing near to dreamhack or mlg...

I would say nani deliver on a level only stephano can do (talking only
forigners), but also slump in between like any top player. Every one have
bad periods, but name one who put up nanis results exept stephano?

Polt has been one of my favorite Terrans. Good to see him take a 1st place finish again!

Great tournament and gj Polt! He truly deserves that trophy.

not really. Stephano did well in almost all tournaments. Stephano rewrote the playstyle of pvz and pvt 2 - 3 times entirely marking new playstyles. Yes nani got up with the gateway first into 4 gate in hots... but honestly.. this was a build that was at the same time also used by hasuobs and MC but not seen by the big audience... while stephanos 12 roach max or is roach hydra vs. terran was completely new...

nani is a very good player don't get me wrong. but he is not that predictable as stephano is. Also I don't agree that stephano slips. even when stephano slips he was second place WCS season 1... if that is called slipping than we have a problem here...

When this MLG began, I felt it was a bit lackluster. But as the story lines emerged, I wanted Polt to grab the trophy. It was a rocky road but he came out victorious. Great!

Love Polt winning. Though anaheim felt like being the weakest MLG ever.. I mean, last season finals, flash vs. life.. that's hard to counter, I guess. Nice event though, and a not-at-all-awkward winning ceremony.. thumbs up, great work team!

Polt almost in the 200k club, just a little more.

The highest success levels are pretty funny, you have the 100k club, the 200k club and the Mvp and MC competing against each other while no one else is even close to them club.

Ehn that last game, Hyun fell apart. So many zergs have trouble dealing with multi-prong medivac harass.

Still an overall nice series, I liked game 3 for it's sheer strangeness i guess. gg polt
