i feel naniwa will just run over thorzain since he knows his fast upg build (unl;ike mc) he can easily counter it

thorzain will take it

all that nani can do to win is 4 gate
THATS a thing he is really good at
maybe he will play 1 game standard like he tried vs hasu but then he will realize that he is too bad for that and 4 gate to easy victory

Edit: Oh wait
i hope this is played after the patch so thorzain will win easily

Thorzain. He's taken out too many great players to fail on this final hurdle.

even though Naniwa might be much better prepared for Thorzain's strats than MC was, I still think that if he could beat MC and had practiced so much TvP even beforehand for when he had to face Tyler, that Thorzain is going to win this time as well. but it's going to be a very close series for sure, probably 4-3.

Have you even seen Naniwa play besides the HasuObs matchup? He's solid at everything, and he invents (or atleast introduce to the pro scene) new stuff all the time. I would love for T-Zain to take this home simply cuz it's a great story. But Naniwa is a WAY better player. He will take this. Quite easily I think.

Edit: 92%. Nani's PvT win ratio.

If Thorzain wins this they should make a movie about his path to victory. Amazing underdog story!

Lol just not too long ago people were saying Naniwa was the best foreigner in the world. Quite a few band wagoners on TL

Jesus christ. Just because he's 4 gating in PvP, doesn't mean that's the only thing he does.
Have you ever watched a PvP in your entire life? I dunno how all these people find their way to team liquid from the battle net forums, but it's quite sad indeed.

Thorzain's TvP is too good? Have you seen Naniwa's PvT? he is 23-2 in his last 25 games against terran. I think Naniwa's gonna take it pretty comfortably. Sorry to disappoint thorzain fans..

I think Nani will win, although not comfortably by ANY means, perhaps epic ace match coming

Although I would love it if THOR!!!!!!zain won

I think Thorzain could legitimately have been considered the underdog with every match-up until this one, but I don't think Thorzain is the underdog in this finals. He beat MC in TvP; he can beat Naniwa.

thorzains plays so far have just been too sexy not to vote for him but i honestly don't know what's gonna happen, especially with the patch.
suuuuuper hyped for this though =D
