My gut says Ro4, and it's usually right about such things.

But seriously, I can definitely see him winning whoever he faces in Ro8, but the statistics are just against him when it comes to winning in the Ro4.

Well so far he has beaten everybody... Including the runner-up of last season. So I'd say he has a fair chance of adv to RO4...Something tells me he'll win there aswell, but lose in the final

. Voted for runner-up

If he gets July he has a shot, I think. Maybe Hero too since his PvP looks strong. I have Leenock in 2nd for group B and I think Leenock can take him out so I say RO8, Regis. Final answer.

I think ro8 or r4 Depending on the Opponent. i think he was underestimated by a lot of korean like genius did. But if they treat him as really a dangerous threat then it would be different.

I actually think he can become the season 2 GSL champion. His play so far has been outstanding, crushing through the Koreans. I don't know why but I have this feeling his weakest match up is Zerg. It might be because that match up seems to be very random.

Anyway, I think he can take it. Sweden/foreigner fighting!!

well, i see naniwa as a far better player than such people as leenock and genious, so i think he might be able to win vs mkp in the finals.

If nani wasn't going to dreamhack I think he would make it far, but as it is I don't think he will get enough practice time to beat MVP

If he meets MarineKing in RO4, then his adventure stops there. Otherwise he will go to the finals!
However, I'm pretty confident that MarineKing will go 1st in his group and then move on to RO4 and beat Naniwa there.

Naniwa will lose to Mvp (and all my other Code S predictions so far have been quite bad, so we'll see...)

With that logic you might as well wait until the final to narrow down the odds more! The point of a prediction is so that you try a figure out who he will play and what his odds are.

Anyways, I have a feeling that MVP might be doable. But beyond that... well, we can hope.

I think he'll be able to defeat MVP in his current state, but any further than that seems pretty optimistic.

He'll be the champion, since there's no more zergs left, and his PvP and PvT has been lookin godly so far.

Doh, I somehow recalled leenock winning mvp, thus voted ro8. But as it's MVP he's facing, I think naniwa can reach ro4. Hard to judge from there on, suppose he has chance against anyone in pvp, but the absolute best tvp'rs might end up too tough.

In this case, untrue. He didn't know if it'd be MVP (nani 50%+ chance) or leenock (nani 30%+ chance?). Anyhow, if first barrier is way too hard, there's no point trying to foresee further. If we think where his run ends at this point, the only sensible logic is to wait until ro8 opponent is known. And now it is.
