man be prepared
i look it yesterday, apparently caster aren't so good
even in the wow thread they called it a joke, and didn't understand nothing

It was terrible, the games were good, but the casting and observing was horrible.
Coming from someone who was stoked to see it.
how the f were the games good?

No. Naniwa has 0 social skills. He's like someone who's been home schooled all their life, and never related with people before.



I bet you can make that judgement based on a few interviews!

What if hes just camera shy? Is not "socially awkward" when hes talking on vent etc (See tl attack!)

Then you haven't seen many games.


Errrr, he's kinda right. Executed properly that build almost always kills protoss.

Don't play toss either so not whining.

I watch almost every game these days, and I have not see a good P hold it vs a good T that executes it properly haha


Me neither tbh, it's a pretty brutal push unless they go for the 3gate stargate all in themselves. But i've even seen that lose to it in the GSL :p


Its not used THAT often though, i think if Terrans would start to abuse that push more frequently, it wouldnt take so long until Tosses would get better holding it. Dont really know though.


The 1-1-1 build that has been having mild success in the GSL is not what Tarson did. He did a cloaked banshee into a marine/tank push with (unfortunately) bad timing and execution.

Hope that the terran messes it up greatly? haha

Respect for tarson, but he did not execute thta well. No cloak, raven instead, siege mode. . . . 3 tanks and go

Raven is really not the best lol.
He should have not researched cloack for faster siege and added 2rax if he wanted to commit (I really don't think there were added since he had so few marines).
he probably don't use this build often


The Raven is needed for that push. For the observers and also for the PDD.

Can you really afford (gas-wise) tanks, banshees, siege upgrade, cloak upgrade, and a raven? I really don't think that's feasible. Something needs to be cut out of that and he cut the raven (and forgot siege mode).


No. The raven is not needed and certainly puts more hurt on your timing. If you want to add a raven you either build a raven first which hurts your banshee count or you build it after your first banshee (no cloak btw) to have enough energy when you push.

The thing is that against a raven the push overall is weaker and the Protoss can force a fight and a PDD before his natural anyways. As already mentioned if you just deal a bit of damage with your first banshee and than slowly push with siege and mass marines at his natural. You focus down stalkers with banshee/siegetank. Even if he cuts your army in half , the power of the forcefield is nearly nullified since tanks have enough range to stand behind and rain hell on stalkers while marines can focusfire the zealots. The most common mistake in execution is to lose the banshees because they rush ahead or lose your high marine count due to own tank-fire, because lots of players don't seem to target stalker/sentry with the tanks.

It was just plainly bad executed as much as I like Tarson. Cloak is in my opinion just a lot weaker and naniwa already did him a favor adding immortals which are utterly shit usually against a well played 2-1-1 allin. Naniwa otherwise did it completely right with adding huge stalkercounts and 5-6 gateways.

It's certainly used a lot more in Korea. I vaguely remember watching one of the up and down groups which was full of Protosses and Terrans, and all the Protoss lost to that build at least once. It was used about 5-6 times that day alone. Poor Tassadar lost to it 3times and even scouted it minutes before it came haha. There could certainly be a way of holding it but i'm just yet to see someone hold it when it's executed properly.

Seriously? What would you have answered to the question "Do you think ThorZaIN is better than Tarson" if Tarson is standing right next to you? I'm sure nAni thinks ThorZaIN is the better player, and he was being mannered not saying that. Stop hating.


wtf is up with this guy saying nani has no social skills based on interviews meant to be seen/read by thousands of people? Do you know Nani IRL and speak to him in Swedish on a regular basis? Complete bullshit.

Yeah, his casting at homestory cup was also surprisingly well and not awkward like you would think.

What should Nani have said? "Lol Tarson's a noob I just crushed him Thorzain is actually good lol!"

No of course not, he basically avoided the question in a good way and answered something generic.

Pfff...

Friend talking to Zotan ingame (paladin that's gonna play in the upcoming match). He says they're aware of how shitty the stream is/observing/commentators are. And yesterday WoW was installed on the computers, but was not updated, so they all had to download 8GB of updates before they could do anything. :D

His answer actually showed that he does have social skills.

Indeed, wtf was he supposed to say?
I rate TZ higher butTarson is standing next to me so yeah.


It's funny that when Idra says shit exactly like this people drool all over him, Naniwa gives a very sensible and empathic answer and people say he doesn't have social skills.

well, carmac put him in a tough spot there. It's better than him saying oh thorzain is much better than tarson when tarson next to him. If he says tarson is better than thorzain, everyone will say he is cocky and underestimates thorzain.


You just say something like, "They have two complete different styles, both very challenging players" is that so tough?


Didn't he say that?

He said "all terrans the same to me, except they have difference in style but if i do my best i am confident i can win 2-0"

That's what he said. Why is that answer wrong and reeks of 0 social skill to you? No difference whatsoever to what you said.

So boring that they switch to WoW... Why don't they just do a real SC2 tournament with more players and a full-time stream of it, with another stream for WoW ? 32 players would have been so much better, there are a lot of europeans who deserved a spot and didn't get it, I really feel like this event has to be re-thought (and i'm not even mentionning the sound issue with players being able to hear commentators !)

The TL attack where he hosted and thorzain was the guest was also pretty funny, he's blunt, but he's definitely aware of it.
