Here we go again. This weekend is about good games and good fun. Don't rain on that parade. Play nice guys. Here's the very standard and friendly:

- NO Balance Whine.
- NO Player Bashing.
- NO Caster Bashing.
- NO BM whatsoever.

Breaking these rules (from pg 166 forward) will be met with severe punishment.

ACtually its drg vs leenock now right, so naniwa can still meet drg in the final..


Praying for Leenock to win so we have a proper final!


Leenock would still have to win two Bo3's while Naniwa would have to win one. MLG uses a proper implementation of double elimination, that's how it works.


What? MLG has never worked like that. They just put Nani up 2 games in a BO7.

The protoss player in me is stimulated, but the starcraft player in me is disappointed.

All of the protoss games played today never went over the 2 base mark. The only thing keeping me going as a sc2 player are yesterday's games which hero played.

So many idiots here, how is it Naniwa's fault he has to do two base timings to win, if zerg plays as greedy as to take a gold instantly you have to punish it or you just fall behind way too much to come back.


that's not the proper way to play PvZ that's why!

the correct way is to sit back, let the zerg get to 200 and then get overrun apparently, so i'm also exasperated at Naniwas refusal to play properly.

I don't bash nani for this play. I think it's DRG that's playing retardedly, who does that kind of stuff in ZvP these days.. It really shows that ZvP is DRG's worst matchup, he played it like a platinum leaguer.


What did I say a while ago; he (and leenock) probably rely too much on mutas.

Naniwa looks like the best Protoss in the world when he plays like this. Unlike Huk, MC, and the rest he never tales a chance, always seems to be solid as a rock.

Yeah it's really cool to watch. HuK and MC have their moments of brilliance but they also lose is really stupid ways due to the risks they take.

Guys, Naniwa has fixed Protoss woes. Make lots of units off 2 base and attack! If MC were playing like this and winning, people would be complaining about 2 base all ins. Artosis is a hypocrite if he thinks this is actually how to play the game.

If this is the way to play the game, then I don't know what to say.


TBH, if you don't attack really aggressively when someone takes a big risk and takes the gold, you are going to lose the game if it goes into the long run? So his decision was smart. That makes sense.

It is pretty standard on terrible maps like Metal and Dual Sight to do a 2 base all-in. If Protoss players like to lose they can try to take an untakeable 3rd.

Don't know who the best foreigner is, but I'd say HuK, Naniwa, and Stephano are definitely up there. Thorzain is also amazing when he's on form, but it seems he hasn't been doing so well lately.

Actually, no. DRG can still win the whole thing and get the Code S spot.

Imagine an interview between Naniwa and the weird awkward Asus Invitational host from 2 weeks ago. THat would be gold.
