predictions result: naniwa 4-2 rage: "this is ridiculous"
I gotta admit, tosS has such great connections with the pro players, and his ability to set up these kind of events is just awesome! I can't wait to cast some live Idra games!
Not sure how nani's PvZ is lately, so I have to give Idra the edge, 4-2.
I still wanna see a grudge match between Cloud and Kiwi!!
Great game, looking really forward to this, close either way I think, 4-2 max for either player, but I'll go for a 4-3 for nani, if played in this patch, new patch I bet on idra taking it.

Actually nani is on top of eu's best diamond league , 2220 points or somthing. His plays very differently in all his games in a Bo3-5, and even throws in a warp prism harass pretty often.
One of the better protoss, and deff has good chance against idra cus of how PvZ is really hard for zerg atm.

He plays a lot. Just because you don't see him play doesn't mean he's not playing. ^^
I still think Idra will win 4-2 as Nani will probably cheese or do some sort of all in and win 2 of the 4 games. If it goes to macro Nani should just gg once it hits that point.
Should be good to see the kind of rage we see when one or the other loses.

doubtfull that idra will get to blizzcon since they have selected(boom) people based on their ladder ranks and ladder ranks alone?

interesting, anyway playing the ladder is not the same as playing many tournament, I think.

He will only play in big tournaments. He will not waste his time with smaller tournaments that are bo1 for like 5 rounds. Those won't really help him at all. He plays in almost every major tournament that is pretty big there just hasn't been one in awhile. He's playing in the Global Gamers tournament. Then he practices for GSL which he qualified and MLG. He plays alot I wouldn't worry about his skill level at all though its just kinda weird saying he's not in good shape because he's not playing in these smaller tournaments he doesn't care about.

When the quick one base plays fail to work it's going to be on a whole other level of macro that I don't think nani can handle nearly as good as Idra (given background & playstyle).

What he said is that we don't see him play a lot, and therefore we don't know if he's in good shape or not. That's perfectly fair. I don't think anyone doubts that Idra's playing like a mofo.
Ah, the battle to see who can come up with the better excuse as to why they lost. Naniwa's tenacious lag defense against Select a week or two back was pretty impressive, but we all know that Idra is truly a master of butthurt, so this should be interesting. Looking forward to it.
although I'm protoss I really hope IdrA takes this 4-0, nani is so incredibly bad mannered it's not even funny - it's not so much like the well known IdrA-rage, where he just freaks out when he loses vs a cheesy build, but the bad kind of BM where a player continues to insult and downplay a certain player even when the game is over
Wouldent this be better to do it on the EU server? I am sure you can borrow somones account to cast his. Idra said himself the lag on the US server is almost unplayable.

Though won't the "king of the hill" be kind of a misnomer if nani loses tonight and still plays idra next week ?
for sure the winner of tonight will play vs IdrA next week

I thought Idra could only play this week because he was in the US so it wouldn't have the Korean lag? Wouldn't that be an issue again if he is in next week?
Those games were so awkward to watch. Really low level of play. I seriously feel like morrow threw that series, confusingly bad play after being so dominant in the first 2 games. Then the race switch up? I mean I know he doesn't play toss but just a stream of warpgate units off 2 base? -.-... Scared of Idra? :D
Its like, no banelings whyyyyyyy Triple expo?? T.T if he had a decent way of spending that money he'd have enough stuff to defend Muta instead of banelings - made way too many muta and too late for that kind of play. Banelings NEED to be there for a big attack, unless you have a ton of lings.
