Poor Revival, so many fans against him People who watch his stream say he's super excited and hopeful to go to Blizzcon.

This is dumb. Naniwa has shown he clearly belongs in the top 16.

Revival on the other hand has gotten some free points here and there to help him :/

I wouldn't oppose a tie-breaker so much if Nani's next opponent wasn't Soulkey, another Zerg he will Bo5 :/

^ pretty much this.
Live report threads will be a much more calm place as well if he won't play (more than 1 series at least). His fans and haters seems rather aggressive sometimes.

Agreed. He's a very unlikeable guy, and although Blizzcon isn't set up to be the best 16 players in the world, he's still too far below that to be there. Not that Revival is exactly either.

when in 1 year, 3 big wcs events, hscups, iems etc etc etc you are top16 and another is not you are the BETTER tournament player

you can argue that in 1-2 tournaments someone was unlucky or had better enemys but if you tell me over 1 year forgg was just not as lucky ??? especially seeing naniwa beating forgg in some events (yaeh he also lost but the most importent ones he won)

guys plz ... when after 1 year and many tournaments someone is ahead of someone else he was better in the whole of the year PERIOD

Hope Nani would loose and rage as he always do
I feel him like Idra and other negative attitudes - pretty annoying.

That is true, if you admit all the players had the same amount of opporunities to get those sweet WCS points in the year.
Wich is wrong.
Plus you just bounce on forGG but what about Life, Rain, Roro, and so on...

Why would they be more deserving? Nani's case is already clear. He made enough points. ForGG, Rain, Life and Roro didn't so whats their claim?

If you can't understand how Rain and Life is a bigger contender for the top player in the world there is no reasoning with you.
I don't know about ForGG and Roro, but Trap is definitely a bigger contender than Naniwa.

This is not about being the better contender. Then take the top 16 from the latest season 3 and put them in the finals. Players fall off and few top players are able to maintain their skill for even half a year. Where was Dear season 1? He wasn't there. He got his first points (25) in season 2. And I imagine someone did the same only in season 1 and fell off in season 3. You will not have the best players at wcs grand finals. Though you will have 16 more or less consistent players. My original question was why Rain, Life and Trap are more deserving than Naniwa?

Look at life's record. He is clearly better than Naniwa and it showed at IEM NY. He won pretty easily and the only time naniwa put up a fight was when life was messing around and manner hatching.

its also a lot easier to be "consistent" outside of korea. Do you think players like duckduck, MC, Alive, Hero would be just as consistent if they stayed in Korea? lol they wouldnt be anywhere near top 16 and definitely woulnt make it to blizzcon.. the TRULY top 16 players in the world are all from Code S.

It could not be more simple: one of the two contenders got there through free points, the other has not.

So now it is unfair for both of them. Dismissing Revival on the spot would make no sense, and Naniwa is doomed to deploy his best PvZ tactics in front of the current #1 player to stay alive.

gg IEM & WCS

It's really not that apocalyptic, and no one got 'free points'.
Revival got an invite to IEM because neither Nerchio or Grubby could afford to fly themselves out (since ForGG's ticket had been bought already). Revival was then chosen based on WCS rankings, and he played well.

Well Revival tied. This should prove to be a good series.

And also, cut it out with the whole "free points" argument. Each player played for their points, nobody was just awarded them for no reason. So many people biased for or against Naniwa...is nobody a middle grounder?

I'm neither here nor there for Naniwa but it would be nice for a foreigner to be in the finals so I'm rooting for him in this tournament.
Then again I'm a person who gets bored watching the mindless "real-top16-codeS" korean players and prefer watching players who have personality(and or controversial ones) that have the skill to back it up which are so far and few inbetween nowadays. Which is also why I don't watch starcraft all that much anymore.

Naniwa bias is hilarious. Either for him or against him, very few people seem to be indifferent when it comes to the guy.

Naniwa is a better player, problem is he will have to reveal his PvZ for Soulkey, so while he most likely to beat Revival, it's already a tough task without Soulkey seeing ur bo5 PvZ day before a match. Will be really tough for Naniwa, and it's kind of unfair.
