Realistically, where do you think NaNiwa's GSL run will end?

Pretty much. Really looking forward to watching the matches, hope MKP gets second in his group and meets Nani in the finals. But more likely he will knock out Nani in ro4. | ||

To be fair, he has to play the second place of the only group which has zergs (also this group has HerO; I pray that Naniwa vs HerO won't happen) | ||

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 | ||

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. | ||

Foreigners have won MLG's and beaten Koreans in various foreign tournaments, but nothing, in my opinion, has captured the same magic that Jinro delivered by making it to the semifinals in back-to-back seasons and taking the first game against MKP in the January season of Code S more than a year ago. If he can get to a finals, things are gonna get crazy on TeamLiquid and the atmosphere will be electric for the final. | ||

PvZ luckily for him only Leenocks is terryfing ZvP player. PvT MKP and MVP are most likely gonna will defeat him (maybe MKP even crushes him) we'll see RO4 is my guess. | ||

He has beaten MVP and Leenock within the past few months and has strong PvP that should have a good chance against HerO too. Depending on who he gets next, he COULD beat his Ro4 opponent if it's anyone but MarineKing. | ||

I think that match up would actually go in Nani's favor I mean he did beat Genius the runner up in the last GSL an beat Puzzle as well who's no joke. I would put Genius ahead of Hero in skill so I do believe that if paired against Hero Nani would come out victorious ![]() | ||

I've seen Naniwa do plenty of macro games especially in PvT there is only the 2 base collosus timing thats viable and thats a legitimate response to a greedy terran. Otherwise PvT always goes late game, unless the terran does any one of the numerous builds that can end it early if not defended correctly. | ||

Now will he? How far will he get? Making the finals would be a bit too much to expect of him, hence my vote of reaching the semi finals and then losing against Parting. | ||

I think if he and MarineKing were to meet in a final (which now won't happen due to seeding), it would cause an implosion so large that the GOM studio would be engulfed in a black hole, within a day the the whole of South Korea and eventually the whole world. But in all seriousness, it depends on who NaNi meets in Ro4. I am confident he can take down Mvp as Protoss seem somewhat favoured in PvT at the moment, even something strong TvPers like Polt are slowly starting to admit. It depends on Mvp's wrist strength and what NaNi has planned in order to combat him. As for Ro4 opponents? Terran wise: TaeJa and MarineKing are major threats, especially since MarineKong has an ultra aggressive TvP style that has worked wonders for him so far. TheStC isn't such a menace and Parting could be a threat although his PvP is mixed. Anyway, I voted runner up because I think Leenock, Squirtle, MC or HerO could eliminate him in a PvZ/PvP finals However, MC hasn't exactly had a brilliant track record against foeigners in PvP. He's been schooled by HuK and NaNiwa a few times before. Ideally, I want NaNi to take a GSL. | ||

Mvp isn't known for his TvP, he has wrists problems and TvP is very hard for the T in the current metagame/GSL mappool, however it's freakin' Mvp : he has time to rest & prepare, come up with builds, he won't lose his composure and it's very very hard to stop Mvp when he is able to prepare. Therefore I give NaNiwa a 50% chance to beat him. If he manages to beat Mvp, I think I read somewhere that he might be against MarineKing. That's where his run will end, it's MarineKing. | ||

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. | ||

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... | ||

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!!! | ||

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. | ||
