I'm going to say the ro8 but it all depends on who he plays imo so he could further.

I hope that someone can beat this guy, I hate him , he is so ugly and has bm, so I think he won't pass or even arrive to Ro 4

My guess is ro4, he is a great player and winning one more bo5 seems plausible. I don't see him advancing past that but it really depends on his draw. Well done on securing his code S spot for next season though, he far exceeded my expectations.
I would be happy if any player left in this won, they are all great and actually quite deserving.

As if I would ever vote realistically on a TL poll. For as long as I can remember, I've always voted for what I want to happen.

Champion.

Round Of 4 I say.

He will have to face either MarineKing, PartinG or any of the Group D players who are all looking so strong right now.
I would love to see him take down these players but I see PartinG taking him down in RO4

He just walked over last season's runner-up, so you can't deny he's a solid contender for the championship.

Ro8 I think, he goes to DreamHack this weekend to maybe reveal too much of his playing style to his future Ro8 opponent. But if he can practice really hard for the match he can get to Ro4 where he most likely gets stomped :3

Realistically, I thought he was going out in the ro32.

So now I have absolutely no clue !

He could make ro4 if he gets a good match-up for him. Hope champion. Think ro8 though

Group B I feel like HerO will make it out in the first spot( yes i am a HerO and Liquid fanboy) and leenock in second place. NaNi has a fairly good chance of winning vs leenock. So I say RO4 were he loses to MKP. I would love to see him win vs MKP(if MKP gets to the RO4, he really should) but I don't see it. But if NaNi makes it to the RO4 Sweden will be the second best nation when it comes to Starcraft 2 without a doubt

dont see why people are saying he's gonna have a hard time against leenock (worst matchup for both, so equally hard) or mvp: he showed good PvT today and MVP is not the best TvP'er...
If he meets Hero (which im assuming) it's either all or nothing like all PvP's he played thus far
and july, got no idea... expect he ends 3rd, but you never know...
anyway, after that it's parting or MKP who will beat him, so RO4 really

Personally I wish him that he doesn't think about such things now at all, and just focus on each opponent and each game, and give it his best.

He is certainly capable of beating anybody of the other top players, even in Bo7 series; but of course the same can be said about other players that are in the Top 8 now, so anything can happen. Realistically I voted Ro4, but no outcome should be a surprise, even a GSL champion.

For the first time in a long time (since Jinro), I have no idea where a foreigner will stop. One thing to consider is that Naniwa has not played a zerg opponent yet, so maybe then? Still not sure though....

I predict Naniwa's Ro8 opponent to be Leenock, who has beaten Nani decisively before and will do it again. MVP wouldn't be an easier opponent either. Against Hero or July, on the other hand, Naniwa has every chance of advancing.

I think that the only player he could beat in Ro8 is Hero and that is also not sure so I guess that's where he'll go out.

Depends 100% who he faces in the bracket so pretty useless to poll this right now...
