The question is not formulated very well.

I think he's got a realistic chance to beat anyone, thus I voted GSL champ.

However, statistically, his most likely result is most definitely to go out in RO8, but that is true for ALL remaining players.

So if he can beat Mvp and the rest of his opponents are only Protoss, he got a pretty good chance.
You never now who will win a PvP, and Nani knows how to flip the coin.
He has a chance at being the Champion but he isn't favored in any match, i hope that he gets past Mvp and has to face a lot of Protoss, then his chances are not that bad.

Would be thrilled if he got into RO4. RO8 seems more realistic though.

No it's formatted adequately, it's asking realistically, where do YOU THINK it will end. It's asking your opinion on how the games will go, not whether you think he has the potential to be champion.

I voted ro8 some time ago, but I now believe he will beat Mvp.

Naniwa's PvP is very strong, so he can probably take a series off any Protoss left in the tournament. What it's going to come down to is the Terran players. If they met at an MLG or something I think MVP would win hands down, but you hear about how hard Naniwa is practicing for this series and with MVP's wrist issues I'm certain he can't practice as hard as Naniwa can.

Also Naniwa is practicing vs Bomber, who has always had a strong TvP and he lives with PartinG, who has the best PvT.

I think if Naniwa beats MVP he will beat the winner of Oz vs PartinG, and I think Naniwa might well beat MVP with how hard he's training. Also its looking like a likely PvP final so you never know...

Honestly, Naniwa's side of the bracket looks scarier, so if he gets to the finals he should have a great shot at becoming champion.

If hero can beat Mvp I don't see why Naniwa can't.

If he gets past Mvp it will be a PvP which Naniwa stands a high chance of winning.

NANIWA!!! I BELIEVE!!!

Pretty hard choice, if he beats MVP he can beat oz or parting. So ether R8 or runner-up.

Still cant imagine him winning a GSL. In the finals the player usually wins with the better (player countering) builds versus certain opponents, in my personal observation that is. All of the possible runner-ups facing Naniwa excel at this.
This is also why I eventually voted Naniwa stopping in the round of 8, MVP gets better results the higher he gets in the GSL due to the increasing amount of preparation he has.

NaNiwa feels his PvT is his strongest side, so i think he have good chances agains MVP, after that he will probably face PartinG who is not that strong in PvP so i think nani has very very very good chances against him, also parting did not do too well in MLG Spring Arena #1.

But im afraid Hero will beat nani in the finals, i dont know why or how, but there is something about Hero that just screams CHAMPION atm.

edit: and who does not want to see a foreginer become champion?

PvT is a funny matchup in which I feel Toss has the advantage at the moment. Also MvP isn't at his best.

And then It will most likely be PvP all the way to the final which is the great equaliser between foreigners and Koreans so
It is very hard to predict but I think he loses in Ro4 to Parting

as soon as he hits a PvZ

I for one dont see his PvZ as his weak point. He is solid in all three matchups! Rushes against him is the scary part, hes good at holding those tho.

Called round of 4 due to his insane practice regiment and mvp's history of tvp.
